Brexit

Greece crossed a similar line to Brexit almost a year ago, when it came close to Grexit. 

The only difference is that Greece was at the time like the lame child of Europe which needed to be dragged along by someone stronger. Thanks to the EU, Greece was propped up, despite the difficulties that this entailed for both sides. Respect is due to the EU for forcing Alexis Tsipras to stay in the meeting room in order to come to an agreement with the EU without a Grexit. 

Life is always harder on the disabled but they too have rights which can only be exercised in a supportive environment. Greece's bailout terms are tough, but that's because Greece was in a very very tough position. 

The UK is not regarded as being in a difficult position. Its not regarded as lame, like Greece.  The UK isn't being treated as disabled, like Greece was. Its being treated as pig headed. That's why the EU isn't happy with the UK - it didn't have to come to this, as the message of the song (which was playing on my local radio station this morning, right after the UK's referendum results were announced) implies:

We took the wrong route,

and don't ask how or why,

we found ourselves in this deadlock.

You might be to blame,

maybe I am to blame,

perhaps it was just meant to be.

Now there remains no other solution,

but only separation

and if a tear does appear,

time will dry it,

time will dry it.

I can't, you can't

go back in time,

to not make the same mistake again.

We now both see it,

from this impasse,

whatever we do to get out of it is too little, too late.

Now there remains no other solution,

but only separation

and if a tear does appear,

time will dry it,

time will dry it.

Bye bye Mr Cameron, hello money-loving and black-hating leaders.

Coming soon: Boris Johnson as PM, and maybe Trump to follow in the US (now that he got a bit of oomph from Brexit), two nylon haired tossers that will soon be ruling the world.

I hear Scotland wants another referendum now. The United Kingdom was never really united after all.
