I have been disgusted with the BBC regarding their ongoing coverage of the referendum, they just can't leave it alone, why are they still asking people how they voted?, why are they allowing politicians to say that they will promote a second referendum? allow them to pull down the out people trying to make them look stupid, I seem to remember when Cameron resigned he said that the new PM should be from the out group, so then we have Teresa May stay group, Jeremy Hunt stay group, then we have Boris Johnson leave, so in reality he is the only one acceptable, the problem being that the two remain would once again have a referendum that just causes more problems than it would solve, if the government is not very careful the country will be spinning round going nowhere, I think that it is time for acceptance of the situation. Stop putting the country down, this is Great Britain we have been here for hundreds of years, we have twice defended Europe in two World Wars, which country was at the for front of the war in Iraq who lost hundreds of soldiers in the middle east conflict US the UK our men our women, just how much support did the rest of Europe provide, why not a lot, so we are better on our own, we do not need to have to get involved in World conflicts let us get on with life, live for this country of ours not worry about what is going on the continent, we need to go forward, at the moment to many people especially the BBC are promoting backward looking events the past has gone never to be repeated, we are leaving Europe so get on with it!!!!!!.

The Referendum
I see today that her highness Nicola Sturgeon self styled queen of Scotland has decided that the result of the referendum means absolutely nothing to her, Scotland I believe voted to stay in the UK some moths ago, defeated I think she was or am I missing something?, now we have this time a UK wide referendum the leave Europe people won that outright, so it is binding on all members of the UK, but of course I forgot Scotland is different it seems, England and Wales voted to leave the EU, Scotland voted to stay, so that means to the queen because they voted to stay the vote does not count for them, why not I ask?, Scotland is a member of the UK so I believe that for that reason they have to abide by the decision made by the rest of us, she and the Scottish people just can't do as they like, we are a democracy not a dictatorship!! mind you she seems to be a very good candidate for dictatorship, it is about time that Scotland behaved responsibly and conformed to democracy they had a chance to leave the UK but they didn't, now the vote has gone against them! so accept it, shut up and get on with the situation, you are supposed to be British you use the same money as us have basically the same laws it is just so sad that one political party can be so intent in breaking up the UK , to me they are an embarrassment.

The Referndum
Well it is all over now, and I have to say I am relieved, the clap trap of the last two months has been a real nightmare, it has to be said that bot sides were as bad as each other, now it matters not what you voted it is time to get on with it, I have to say I think the BBC has for some reason better known to them selves spent hours and hours on the result, all we need is the result I just want to know what it is, I do not need to hear defeated remain politician's bleating on and on about the result, I also do not need to hear the out supports crowing about the win, none of it really matters no one knows just what will happen to the country but I really hope it will be better out than in, not for me but my grandchildren, I know that the elderly population were mostly leave, the young are now insulting us by complaining that we the elderly have destroyed their kids future lives, what a load of crap, age does not matter a vote is a vote age of the voter matters not, it could be that the elderly understand what effect the European Union has done to much of this country, I remember when a young person you could get quality fish but now these vast fleets of trawlers have vanished from our shores, so many sailors finished, boats having to be sold for a pittance, many more rules and regulations have been implemented that really do not benefit this country, we have to get on with it and I think that things will turn out far better than they are now, the future has to be seen but I feel that we are now Great Britain again not a state of Europe, I look forward to seeing if the other countries throw their toys out of the pram it will be interesting to see.

The EU
So the decision has been made at long last, but now out of the woodwork comes Gerry Adams and Nicola Sturgeon, they seem to not be able to accept a UK wide vote to leave the EU, the fact that this country is a democracy and the majority decision is the rule, but of course the SNP as always will stamp their feet and gnash their teeth and then chuck their toys out of the pram, it is a fact the leave campaign has won the referendum and with 72% of the electorate voting, so it has to be accepted, I now see on the News that the SNP want another referendum for independence again, it makes me laugh that these MP's in Scotland just can't accept the decision, and request for another referendum on independence for Scotland should be refused and the door shut firmly in the face of the SNP, then we have Gerry Adams!, who is he to say that Northern Ireland should join with Southern Ireland?, sour grapes seems to be the response, I have had to endure all sorts of crap this morning, Keith Vaz near to tears when being interviewed, we have voted out and it has to be accepted by the government and get on with it!!! and get on with it now.

My Blog / UK Drivers
I have just noticed that my Blog failed to appear as I had constructed it, I have no idea as to what happened to it, I was saying that one of my pet hates is drivers not indicating where they are going, especially on very busy roundabouts you have to play a game of Russian roulette to get across, so many drivers oblivious to any other drivers, the worst offenders I have seen are Taxi and white van drivers, also we have the mad men who have to undertake just because they just have to get by at any cost, then we have young ladies putting on lipstick, combing their hair and often texting, it is a mad world on the road now, pouring with rain most drivers think why should I put my lights on I can see very well, well maybe you think you can see well but can you really?, lights are supposed to be put on for the benefit of other drivers on the road so they can see you!!, park your car in a car park then find that some one has hit your car causing damage possibly broken lights or a lovely dint, there was a day when people would leave a note to say they had done it with their name and address, now ah well what a shame I did that I am off home to have a cup of tea why should I let them know it was me? no one saw me so not to worry leaving you with the cost of repair, I could go on and on but it just depresses me to do so!!!!!.

Driving
Well here we have my pet hate !!, the inability of drivers to indicate just where they intend to go, it is not surprising that there are so many accidents, in my experience may be one in ten do indicate, the most just go on their merry way not giving a toss for other drivers, white van man and Taxi drivers are the worst followed by young women, I have seen them putting on lipstick, combing their hair and worst texting, also I saw a young man driving at speed wearing headphones that can't be right can it?, I hate coming to a busy round about because you have to take your life in your own hands, it is just like Russian Roulette, you take a chance and just hope you will be OK, but sooner or later you will fire the gun and you are in the middle of an accident caused solely by some one else's ignorance, then we have pouring rain and very few put their headlights on in fact often not even the Police, I give up I could go on forever but it just stresses me out, so that is the end of my rant.

Football
I have been watching the football on TV over the past few days, now the England supporters have a lot to answer for in the streets of France, drunk and fighting everyone and anyone they just never learn, but watching the England V Russia Match I have to say the Russian supporters were fully to blame for the nasty happenings in the stadium they charged the England supporters at the end of the match, but who gets the blame of course the England supporters, the French should hold their heads in shame as they did not really segregate the crowed and showed little if no police presence, the paper say that the Russians have been training to cause disruption on a massive scale, witnesses say that the Russians pulled up scarves over their faces and some wore masks, some had knuckle dusters how was that allowed to happen, the French now say that they can't prosecute any of the Russians because they could not see their faces that must be the lamest excuse I have ever heard, surely they could be identified by their clothing, if they are not able to do this the police officers need to have their eye sight tested, just because a few England supporters misbehave the law abiding ones still have the right to be protected not thrown to the dogs, just maybe because the police were at home watching the Football on TV, the government should let the French know that their policing of events is just not good enough, you have to laugh because the UK said they would send some police officers to help out, in my mind that makes the French police incompetent, has this anything to do with our possibility of leaving Europe???? who knows.

immagration
Immigration, I see from the press under a freedom of information rules that one migrant is caught every 6 minuets, a total of 84,088 a year that is just the ones that are caught just how many manage to get in? it must quite a few, watching TV the Boarder Force makes me laugh they catch an illegal immigrant interview them then release them on bail, and guess what they do? they do not return they just vanish in to thin air, how can you expect them to return to answer bail?, there must be thousands that are roaming this country but no one has the faintest idea as to where they are, surely if some one who is in this country illegally they should not be allowed bail at all and should be kept in custody till they are removed from the country, I know it is not easy but the laws should reflect the need for custody when these people are caught, it is totally stupid to allow bail as anyone released would run and melt into the population, working illegally and who knows what they need to do to survive, we need to act responsibly when these people are caught deal with them quickly and deport them rather than stupidly give them bail, time to grow up!!!!!.

The EU
I woke up this morning thinking what's on the News, and what do I find the government web site to register to vote in the referendum crashed last night, people had up to midnight to register, it seems many watched the program quizzing the PM and Nigel Farage when it finished many tried to register and now people are asking for an extension to register, now it has consistently been on TV telling us we have to register by the 7th closing at midnight, so if you were stupid enough to have waited till the last two hours it is your fault, but as normal some wait till the very end and then complain because they could not get through, well more fool you, you had a 101 chances to register so don't bleat when you were daft enough to wait till the last minuet you have no room for complaint, in no way should an extension to register should be given, a given time is a given time so those who missed it have only themselves to blame.

The NHS
If the government are so sure that they want a seven day service at the hospitals it becomes logical that the District Nurse service needs to be just the same, it seems that six and a half days a week they are a full team but on Sunday one nurse from each team covers the whole of the teams area, they are running all over the place not only doing their list but have to pick up any one in their area might ring for assistance, we are told to keep away from A&E and go to a drop in service, but that service in my area only deals with minor injuries or will send you to your GP, A&E or ring 111, it is very difficult to fully understand just where you should go when out of hours, when asked what is going on I am told they are overwhelmed and lack recourses to provide the service needed, that blows away the government statement that they are upping the NHS budget, if in fact they are where is the money going???, a large amount is wasted providing target results, targets for everything why??, patients just want a quality service from quality staff, if these people are having to waste time with idiotic paperwork it is not surprising all the delays experienced when visiting a hospital, yes there should be achievable targets but only if they do not affect patient care, and of course targets need vast amounts of ancillary staff at a cost, so I just hope the government take notice before things get out of hand!!!!!!!!!.
