REMOANERS

entry picture

(A re-post from a couple of years ago.  I don't care who I target)

 

Remoaners, dull droners, like fleas that just buzz in your ears

With whingeing and bleating and sobbing and crocodile tears

They won’t take no note of

The will of the voters

Insisting that they still no best

Despite democratically

And quite emphatically

Failing the ballot box test.

 

Remainers, complainers, it’s time you should wind in your necks

Although it’s unlikely you’ll do the right thing, one suspects

Your case was thought feeble

When put to the people

They opted to leave the EU

There’s no use defying

Decry- or denying

The popular will as you do.

 

Remoaners are owners of wisdom electorates lack

But voters decided it’s time to take sovereignty back

You campaigned to vote “Stay”

But didn’t get your way

That’s tough! We’ve settle our choice

Now you may not like it

If so – on yer bike!

It’s the sound of democracy’s voice.

JC - I always enjoy the sparring and the good humour that still manages to prevail. Thanks for enlivening this precious often
precocious (and occasionally perplexing?) site.?

It'll be automated by then Graham. And I'm old enough to know the CS &N track.

Hahaha!

one of my young grandsons was taken by his parents on last wekend's 'people's march' to support remain. They photographed him wearing a 'bollocks to Brexit teeshirt. When I asked him why he was a remoaner he said because daddy said I'd need someone to wipe my arse one day and English people wouldn't do it!

Crosby Stills and Nash come to mind!

Just about says it all I think.

You still think we’re leaving, MC?

To plagiarise the great Sammy Cahn.
(And to be "perfectly Frank".)
Time after time
I tell myself that I'm
So lucky to be leaving the EU
So lucky to be
On the way to being free
In the future when we start anew
I only know what I know.
The passing years will show
We made our hopes
So fresh - so new
And time after time
I tell myself that I'm
So lucky to be leaving the EU !

A rather rogue interpretation of the current direction of travel, MC.

Old saying (suitably adopted/adapted)
Everything comes to those who wait;
Remainer MPs, your votes dissipate! ?

Good to hear, Brian. I knew you’d come round.
You know it’s not going to happen, don’t you?
