I know it's early but there are lots of pissed young men already in my local and Union Jack hats/flags/banners aplenty plus a buffet (still covered up for later). Am in the North. Anyone else?

Only if he flashes his pants, and they read BREXIT IS AN ACT OF COLOSSAL POLITICAL STUPIDITY.

I’m in the highest remain constituency in the UK, barring Gibraltar. It’s very quiet. I did see on the tube a man with a St George flag wrapped around his shoulders and a plastic Crusader helmet, though.

EU flag pants?

Yarmouth is supposed to have several BINO parties going.

@everythingisginandroses, alas, I am in another country — EU citizen formerly living in the UK, but just left last month after 20 years — so can’t do more than encourage him to wear a suit of armour...

Ah, that is a pity, Sleeveen. Tamworth was a Saxon capital, on the edge of the Danelaw, I am told. We are all European [roses]

There is a candle lit vigil in our town centre and the only pub I know of that is celebrating in a flat roof pub in an estate on the other side of town.

Flymetothetoon · 31/01/2020 22:29

For the love of Jesus is it time for the fireworks yet?

Did anyone just watch Matt Berry in The Road to Brexit?

CaptainMyCaptain · 31/01/2020 22:31

Yes. Just watched it. Very funny. (if you didn't laugh you'd cry)

CaptainMyCaptain · 31/01/2020 22:32

The Last Leg now and Adam Hills will be shaving off his beard.

DesdemonaDryEyes · 31/01/2020 22:36

Do you need to keep stressing that you are in the North?

I can’t bloody wait for 11pm.

Any chance the whiny bastard Remainers can shut the fuck up then?

No

That’ll be the whole democracy thing

CaptainMyCaptain · 31/01/2020 22:38

Accepting its going to happen doesn't mean accepting its right.

DesdemonaDryEyes · 31/01/2020 22:39

Whine away then.

RufustheLanglovingreindeer · 31/01/2020 22:39

I don’t think any of our local pubs are doing anything ‘special’ for tonight

Probably just as well

RufustheLanglovingreindeer · 31/01/2020 22:40

Whine away then

When have i whined?

Flymetothetoon · 31/01/2020 22:41

I don't need to keep stressing I'm in the North!
proud to be a Northerner
I love the south too 😁
