Britain's Identity Crisis ( how very British!) ft Flavour & Selebobo- Mmege Mmege
Does anybody know what's going on?
If so let me know please...
It's all quite bizarre
Britain votes to leave the EU
PM announces his resignation
George Osborne will not stand in Tory leadership contest ( against Boris?!... no way, besides... I wouldn't be surprised if they discussed and agreed it anyway)
Boris is now quite unpopular among IN voters
England loses against Iceland! and the England team manager resigns
Pound has fallen ( apparently)
...as long as it lands in my purse im okay :)
Nigel Farage continues to insult EU leaders to their faces
Asked about the rise in racist incidents his advice to the culprits is.. 'behave yourselves'..
Oh yeah .. there has been a reported rise in overt racism
As I write this at this very moment there is a very large protest outside parliament ( pro EU campaigners)
The Labour party is in turmoil with 80% of the shadow cabinet resigning (rude)
The Labour leader lost the vote of 'no confidence'
No outright leader to replace him but he refuses to resign anyway
'Scotland' is pissed off with England
Someone told me that they now see the British flag as a symbol of racism (you know that person was very young right)
This is beginning to resemble something which has been carefully orchestrated
Modern day Shakespeare where art thou..
As i read recently
'relax people.. nothing is under control!'
Yet somehow.. i believe it just may be.
Prior to this and even now, hardly anyone really knew much about the EU
Very few regular folk are economists and even they didn't seem to know much
Regular folk.. being asked to vote on something they know little about is like asking me to select the England football team for a major tournament
Chale..I'm looking forward to when this is all sorted out
For the past few years 'Britishness' has been high on the political agenda
what is it, why we need it , lets promote it
Few had the ability to define it
Well...something tells me that will become much clearer soon
So...why did so many people apparently vote to leave?.
Who knows... but failure to invest in communities is definitely proving to be a mistake, as ( EU aside) people often fear what they don't know.
Cultural Ignorance..
We live in a culturally diverse world where cultural ignorance appears to be the order of the day
Multiculturalism without integration?
Me? chale, nuh disturb me abeg...i'm watching 'love your garden'
..whilst simultaneously dreaming of a plane ticket to a beautiful place I've never seen before
and of course... enjoying Flavour
Here's a random fact:
I was a Brownie and later a Girl Guide.
I was a better Brownie than Guide, as my Brownie uniform had loads of badges, I earned very few as a guide.
I guess the uniform really wasn't cute enough to motivate me :)
NB - I'm soooo thinking of quitting the Labour party. I'm not exactly politically active and they irritate the backside outa me no end.

For me - Turbulence
Can you sing a song all day?
I can...
"Oh
oh baby
hey
you love me
oh
I love you too
oh
hey baby
hey you love me
oh i love you too
(Chorus)
and It was written in the stars
look now here you are
and every night I hoped and prayed
that somewhere out there
Is someone made for me
Written in the stars
look now here you are
and every night I hope and pray
somewhere out there
someone made for me.."
Turbulence sang a very special song here
"For me"
Good luck England x
