The weather is on the side of the people

[claig]

Chucking it down in the East of England. Storms last night. Senior Remain campaigners phoning in minute by minute weather updates to Brussels. To say there is despair among the elite is to do the English language injustice.

Brexiters were out in force, soaked to the skin, some were being carried to the polling booths. As we said "good morning" to each other, there were mentions of "Independence Day" with laughs and winks.

Some Brexiters looked to the Heavens as they chucked down rain upon us and smiled. The Heavens were on our side.

Bottle of mineral water, yes

The battle for your hand has nearly been won
which way will it go, which victory song will be sung?,

For those bought off with a cheap plastic necklace
They think Brexiteers are terribly racist reckless

But Brexiteers value more than glittering jewels,
our Freedom is ALL we think YOU are fools

Great stuff, Roses. Keep 'em coming everyone.

dashed out in a gap in the rain
(in wellies as I am not vain)
put my x in the box
now preparing for shocks
(and no I did not vote remain)

great, glassgarden

The storms have hit Brussels; the sky has darkened, the wind is whipping up and it is pelting down. Wonder how the level in Junckers cognac bottle is looking?

Juncker drank that for breakfast - he's off to slap some foreign leaders if they don't get into line.

Hang on claig - are you getting pissed while we Brave Bremainers are out mobilising the In vote? What sort of a populist are you?

The Passionate Politician To His Love

As he sobbed and took refuge in his pint of beer
She clasped his hand and wept a bitter tear
I need you he said, please caress my velvet lapel
And behold my visage, how can this thee repel

I beg your forgiveness darling Nigel Farage
But your vision is but a frightening mirage.
I'll never forget that weekend in Rhyll
But of your politics I've had my fill

Exccllent, squoosh, very funny. Great stuff, scary.

'What sort of a populist are you?'

I'm not a campaigner, just a voter. Vote Leave have enough campaigners out there, we hope.

Brilliant squoosh. A weekend in Rhyl with Nigel Farage, sounds very Larkin.

I'm not kidding Claig, I'm sitting here marking GCSEs with the lights on, the sky has gone that funny underwater green colour, and the cats have gone into hiding.

You hope??! It's all gone a bit downbeat since the high fives and shouts of independence!

Wonder how the level in Junckers cognac bottle is looking?

Low but with another breathing in the wings.

'I'm not kidding Claig'

Yes, I can imagine. It was a hell of a rain, but it is expected to move off tomorrow. It may be coming your way.

Scary - be nice when you get to my DS's GCSE paper.......

Superb thread, total LOL from start to finish

It all got a bit giddy in the end Limer!

I think you're great Claig. I love your posts. I'm probably a fellow tin foil hat leaver though 😂

Have been chortling all day at these poems. Well done everyone who penned a limerick. Bloody good show. What?

'I'm probably a fellow tin foil hat leaver though'

There are loads of us. We are the majority. Gove and Johnson even decided to join us, they figured if you can't beat them, join them and were measured up for a tin foil hat.

I take it I don't need to tell you to "use a pen". We all know what they are up to

what time will results start to filter through and are there any areas we should watch out for please

Sunderland at 12.30 is important. Expected to go for Brexit, but margin will be important. They are saying that by about 3.30 am we should probably know, but definitely by about 7 am

Don't know about the weather being on the side of the people. Perhaps storms in the SE of England & glorious sunshine in Scotland was divine intervention!

Here goes.....!!

I'm actually really excited!
