This month has some great anniversaries if you’re British, Waterloo, The Queen’s official birthday, and of course tomorrow, the finest and most important military operation in human history, Operation Overlord*.

And then the idiot privatised the railways in the worst way possible to meet EU open access rules.
Publicise Major as much as you like. I can't think of a better way of getting over 40s to get of their backsides and vote leave
Some PBers, Leavers and Remainers, are becoming a bit grumpy.
And the very worst prophecies of doom we're given, now, are milder than the 1992 recession, yet alone the 2008 crash.

Oh look, Top Gear has started.
ZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzz
I suppose the 1945 Labour landslide - sort of
I was hoping it would be counteracted by the release of "X-Men: Apocalypse" (where the bad guy explicitly wants to tear down all existing strictures without a plan in place to replace them).
...or conversely "Captain America: Civil War", where both sides have a point....
...but it seems even drawing analogies to comic book movies cannot save us now...
"Peter (Cook) never had any regrets in his life. I never heard him voice any regrets. He didn't regret the fact that he lost his early facility, he didn't regret the fact that he lost his looks, which he did quite spectacularly, he didn't regret the fact that Dudley had gone on to fame and fortune in Hollywood. The only regret he regularly voiced was that, at the house we all shared in Fairfield, Connecticut in 1963, he'd saved David Frost from drowning."
Just saying.
Emergency services have been dealing with an incident involving burning vans on the outskirts of Glasgow.

Films not being made by Murdochs lot ia.s it lol
There will be a final blitz from Project Terror the likes of which we have never seen before. Possibly including a panicked vow. This will be very heavily coordinated. The BBC will help. The print media will finally pick sides: Telegraph, Sun, Mail and Express vs. FT, Times, Evening Standard, Guardian and Independent.
Question is, will that force people out to vote Remain (and hate themselves for doing it) or will they just abstain or spoil their ballot? "A plague on both EUr houses"
Dunno.
Our future economic prospects are best served by Brexit.
Suits me.
Keep it up, old chap. Your side are doing sterling euro work.
I'm 80% sure it'll come out for Remain (albeit reluctantly) - there's a chance it might fence sit, but I don't think that's the sort of newspaper The Times is.
So they effectively endorsed Tony Benn and Michael Portillo
Many people are discounting the doom & gloom because we've heard it too many times before and it's been proved wrong.
So if Remain would acknowledge this, and explain why the doom & gloom wrong before and why it's right now, they might sway some of us back again.
*Chris Evans tells a joke*
Audience: *huhhuhhuhhuh...*
Embarrassing.
Swiss and Irish have referendums all the time about European and other topics, and they don't seem to get as bitter. Maybe people accept that they will often be on the opposite side to friends and colleagues.
set my expectations for tomorrow night - is the second episode better, the same, or worse than the first one?
I know there are changes coming along for episode 3 as a result of 'feedback', but they had already shot ep. 2
It's like a really shite bedroom swede.
Like swapping Terry Scott for Ben Elton in Terry and June and wondering whi it isnt funny.
The problem is Evans. He has no persona, no on-screen presence, and doesn't do empathy. Otherwise than he's a gear head I don't understand for the life of me what he's doing fronting Top Gear.
Good evening. In less than 18 days, activists from here will join others from around these Islands. And you will be launching the largest electoral battle in the history of mankind.
Mankind - that word should have new meaning for all of us today.
We can't be consumed by our petty differences anymore.
We will be united in our common interests.
Perhaps its fate that day is the 23rd of June, and you will once again be fighting for our freedom, not from tyranny, oppression, or persecution - but from EU diktats and red tape.
We're fighting for our right to live, to exist.
And should we win the day, the 23rd of June will no longer be known as a British holiday, but as the day when the world declared in one voice:
"We will not go quietly into the night!
We will not vanish without a fight!
We're going to live on!
We're going to survive!"
That day, we celebrate our Independence Day!
**crowd cheers**

Cohen, Cohen, Gone? (sorry)
There are many UK business sectors or people who will benefit from a falling currency, new tariffs, rising interest rates.
And their 'experts' need to be bullet proof, not a list of serial failures with a charge sheet of wrong calls longer than Steve McLaren.

Remember, he is known world wide, but nobody outside the UK has ever heard of Chris Evans.
