    Being better than the worst does not inherently make you good. But being better than the rest lets you brag.

    They're consistant, at least.

    Now Farage has resigned too.

    I'll put it cautiously: There is a slight possibility that integrity and political calibre of the head figures of the Leave camp are not entirely above reproach.

    Job well done, results in. I don't really see a role for him anymore so maybe it's the best this way.

    That's a given with any group with Gove a head figure, though I dont remember anyone actually voting for him, he sort of jumped on the bandwagon and the media just decided he was a leader.

    Farage is done, he was a one issue politician and with that issue resolved he's retired, wish some other politicians had such an attitude.

    Are you saying the EU should apply the rules you want it to? Why can't a sovereign trade block apply the rules it wants to apply when it makes a treaty? Why should a trade partner be given all the advantages with no responsibilites?

    It's not like these EU rules were a secret and noone could expect that. It's called being consistent as you said.

    It's of zero consequence and the eurocrtats know that very. As for your quextion when would you consider using a weapon justified, to defend yourselve or use it to get what you want. It's obviously not a question for eurocrats. But they have no weapon.

    One thing we can agree on that happened with this referendum result... British politics is getting destroyed.
