*we're having a referendum in britain to leave the E.U., although we didn't join it economically in the full sense of the words sterling & euro... so we got our paddles out, and started doing the blair poodle dance rowing to the east coast of america, dover-to-calais distance from maine, and while paddling past iceland bemused.* i find it unbelievable that singled out people in western democracies always consider themselves speaking like a consensus rather than as a veto, as if they're always backed up by an alignment of many shared interests provided by the vote (the sly one anonymously done in a ***** donors' booth).
