Most of Scotland sadly has Stockholm syndrome.

The term TAX SLAVE needs to become extremely common. I see it everywhere. It my county, the productive working class is constantly drained to pay for the unproductive parts of the county. This needs to end, world wide!

Get used to it, get mad, go live at Ruby Ridge, whatever. It's very hard to escape the bureaucratic state - Red Tape.

Good for the Brits, the shackles of the EU are broken and now if they can shed their liberal government they can actually revive a great nation - Make Britain Great again.

I really enjoyed the presumptive President’s talk today at his Scottish links.

well the UK had the chance to escape their EU jailers, and they took it.

Why would those who wish to live as a free people not vote for exit ?

The British Tea party.

Someone on the news this am said that the EU was going to take the Brit’s electric toasters and tea kettles away (I don’t know whether this was about just having one kind or what). The reason given had to do with ‘the environment.’

Imagine. Brits without tea.

Yes indeed. But bureaucracies are like poison gases seeping through the trenches in WWI. They will have home grown bureaucrats doing the job soon enough, IMO.

At this point, it's symbolism. Fine, if it makes you feel good. I'm an American living in Canada, but still get to vote in some elections in the US. Every two years I get to vote for a conservative in Nancy Pelosis 12th Congressional District, and this year I'm voting for Libertarian Gary Johnson, but I'm not kidding myself about my impact.

Interesting. I wonder how that breaks down by age group. Probably dark brown at the left and pasty white at the right.
