When it comes to a specific question asked by referendum, however, the ****s should just do as we've told them. But they won't.

Get yourself a hi-vis vest and meet me at the barricade.

I had that Emmanuel Macron in the back of the cab once. I gather than Tony Blair has been advising the EU on negotiating with the UK. Tony Blair. Have you seen the size of his house on Connaught Square? It is enourmous. Not bad for a Prime Minister's salary. It wasn't quite big enough though so he bought the mews property behind it and joined them up. So his 24 hour police guard has two entrances to guard. Two heavily armed coppers at the front, two at the back, three shifts per rotation of the earth. 12 plods a day - who pays for that? Perhaps we can send the bill to Raytheon and General Dynamics.

When I wandered down the mews to see if I'd get shot Cheri opened the back door to bring them a cuppa. How sweet!
