Lol, yeah, surrounded by machine-gun nests...
Why do people try to blame Brexit on just about every thing bad that happens? The decline of the NHS began decades ago, the economic damage happened world wide with the 2008 crash. Nothing at all to do with Brexit.
The will of the people in 1975 of whom I was one.
The electorate expressed significant support for EC membership, with 67% in favour on a national turnout of 64%. The referendum result was not legally binding; however, it was widely accepted that the vote would be the final say on the matter and would be politically binding on all future Westminster Parliaments. In a 1975 pamphlet, the then Prime Minister Harold Wilson said: "I ask you to use your vote. For it is your vote that will now decide.
@Bluetit1802 - I’m assuming that as your profile says you’re a T2 in remission, that you don’t take insulin? I don’t think you can comprehend the fear that some of us who rely on the stuff to survive are living under just now.
Please do let your MP know how you feel, whoever they are. If they are Brexiters, tell them how worried you are and the damage they are doing. If they are active remain supporters, thank them and encourage them.

Already done, several times since the misguided opinion poll of June 2016! My MP is a remainer, marched with us last month for a People’s Vote, and is on side. I’ve also recently written to TM the PM and Matt Hancock (Health Secretary), my MEP and the leader of my own party. I’m already a very active campaigner on this issue, so I hope your comment will give others the info they need to do the samePlease do let your MP know how you feel, whoever they are.

Aye, it was quite busy, wasn’t it? I got as far as Downing Street before the crush was just too much, so went to Scotland Yard to protest thereOh, well done! More letters than us, but we were on the march, if you can call standing outside The Dorchester waiting to move off for a couple of hours "marching". Got as far as Trafalgar Square.

Sorry, just not true. The crash in the pound that followed the Brexit vote was the largest single-day drop that any of the four global currencies in which bulk of global hard cash reserves are held has seen since the collapse of Bretton Woods in the early 70s. To put it into perspective, it was twice as bad as Black Wednesday.The NHS has been in trouble for far longer than since the referendum and the economic crash happened in 2008. Yes, there was an immediate impact on the Pound but that happens every time the stock market gets a bit jittery.
And of course there's the stuff that the "Open Insulin Project" has done...Make my own insulin... (Of sorts.)https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eva_Saxl

Wow, what wonderful people they both were, I am in awe of them. Thank you for uploading the clip

Except for those folk who were about to cash in their pension plans. I don't suppose the future looked very bright for them.But the sky still did not fall down.
