"Plenty of strikers can score goals," he said, gesturing to the famous old stands casting shadows around us.
"But a lot have found it difficult wearing the number 9 shirt for The Arsenal."
You've marshaled a lot of facts here, my friend. I will say this. Sometimes it's about having *the right* to assert yourself. It may cause a lot of ****, but freedom isn't free. Ganpati. Freedom isn't free. These Europeans are always trying to take British babies and use them in some sort of new socialistic food bank. They get reconstituted as paste, or pellets. So it's hardly surprising that the British wanted to say, enough.
Which is where the peculiarly british pomposity about representation starts to get on my ****ing tits. The notion that YOUR MP is elected to represent YOUR views has been utter nonsense since political parties acquired the semblance of party organisation in the 1830s.
The first thing your MP does on arrival at Westminster is take the whip, meaning he speaks, acts and votes with and for his party. What his constituents may or may not believe does not matter a jot for another 4 and a half years.
You either accept this arrangement or you don’t.
Demanding a referendum when it doesn’t get you what you want is not the done thing at all.
Poor form.
