But who should he have replaced them with? That is the question... it's easy to criticise what he did without offering substantial alternatives..

Go to Cannareggio in Venice. Most 'authentic' quarter. And the jewish one, too. (Clive will be shocked to see I am recomending this :) ) Stay away from San Marco and just get lost in quiet streets. Lago di como extremely nice - go to Bellagio, Mennaggio and Varenna.

I find it very strange that the utimate aim of the enquiry wasn't to decide whether the war was legal or not.

Personal abuse? Give it a rest. His bizarre obsession with Israel and accusing anyone who utters or seems to utter a word against the country's actions of being anti-semitic. His ability (which you mirror) to take a genuinely held view and twist it and turn it into one which you are both sure is...

Good piece from the best political journalist in the UK https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2016/jul/06/theresa-may-candidates-prime-minister-home-secretary

Exactly. Quite bad news for the UK economy. Not a word from Clive on this nor as the pound collapses versus both the dollar and euro - down from 1.30 day before brexit to 1.17 in the latter.

Come on, using Icebreaker and Intellectuel in the same sentence? ;)

Agree with all of this. Momentum are a very deranged and dangerous bunch. Corbyn will literally have to be dragged away though, and if re-elected, he will happily stay leader even if he doesn't have enough labour MPs to fulfill shadow cabinet roles...

Read my posts again and stop putting in things not there - I made it very clear that remain had this in the bag, Leave switched focus and tone to immigration, and this is what turned it for them. I do believe all the negative things I wrote about the English (especially outside London) whilst...

Where did I say all 52%?

To me it nullifies the referendum if they leave the EU but go back to a situation where they have no control over immigration from the EU.

But then they can't control immigration which makes their entire campaign a fraud?

London is not England (thankfully). London IS open and tolerant and international.

You are a very weird guy Clive. It would do you some good to live abroad. There's a whole world out there, you know.

Who?

If you can't see the common thread of nationalism used by both the Nazis and Farage, then that's your problem.

Yes, like many people outside England, I would love it to fail and reap what it has sowed.

Ehhh, no. First of all, we're talking about the UK, so stay on topic please. Secondly, the campaign was in the bag for Remain, Leave changed the focus and tone of their campaign to immigration and suddenly the worst (real) instincts of middle England came to the fore, momentum swung around...

Clive, I know you have trouble with numbers but you are embarrassing yourself out of all belief here. http://www.xe.com/currencycharts/?from=GBP&to=USD&view=1Y I have even put this in a graph. If you cannot see how this is (BY FAR) the lowest the pound has been against the dollar in a year, I...

On a different and serious point - I had to listen for years to this idea England is a tolerant open country. No/little racism etc. What with the referendum having exposed the deep-rooted immigrant-hating attitutdes of middle England, and the hate crimes and abuse seen in recent days, this has...
