Two 575s

Michael Edwards

 

Their will was expressed

A Damascene conversion

The people betrayed.

 

Berate the voters

Flexible democracy

Ignore the result.

    Well said Michael, this 'joke' has gone on long enough. Fancy a pint somewhere to try and get away from it - New Zealand might be the place to go.

    • Michael Edwards

      A pint sounds great - see you in the bar.

      Yes - don't invite me to the pub. I won't say 'See if I care', cos I will only bring along the water! Miss Berles having a pint?

        But you must come along - it's folk night and you can sing with your hands over your ears.

        Whether we take note or ignore ..all shall remain the same ..falls on deaf ears ...🌹

        • Michael Edwards

          Sadly yes - I am so disillusioned by it all.

          • Thoughts In Time

            I don’t even give it time of day...life goes on 🌹

            Thanks for your comments UNCLE MIKE ~ We are 11,500 miles aways and it Spring & 11pm MONDAY ~ BUT ~ We have just watched HM Queen delivering the TORY MANEFESTO in the (so-called) QUEENS SPEECH ! NZ is very pro-Monarchy and they all feel BORIS has been a tad discourteous towards HMQ ! Angela wishes she was coming back to the UK with a positive DEAL with the EUW ~ All Done & Dusted ~ She is a supreme OPTIMIST ! We are not political Animals and tend to concentrate the issues which affect our Careers ~ Education & Science & Health & Community Services ! We are Centre Ground Politically ~ I slightly to the LEFT and Angela slightly to the RIGHT ! When we start a Family (2021) we will be much more concerned about how things will be Environmentally in 2100 and beyond. For all the right reasons we will restrict our Family to TWO ! BREXIT ? VEXIT !

            Blessings & Peace to YOU & YOURS
            Love BRIAN & ANGELA πŸ’™πŸ§‘πŸ’™πŸ§‘πŸ’™
