    Scotland was not that close in the grand scheme of votes...62/38

      OK...buddy was wrong on that one. Still he said the sentiment of folks voting for the outcome of getting an independent vote for Scotland rather than seeing England leave the EU was pretty widespread.

        Not the point of course, but you digress.

        They overwhelmingly voted to stay, therefore neither purported motive was in play.

              So, Boris Johnson gets everyone frothed up to vote for the exit and then bows out of the Prime Minister hunt?

              What a *****.

                  He got knifed by Gove. Boris was going to make Gove Chancellor of the Exchequer, but balked at making a top Gove aide Chief of Staff. Gove decided to muck up the works.

                    Quentin Letts, a comedian of sorts for the Globe & Mail was interviewed on Sky News shortly after and said (among other things) "Those two old idjits made a terrible mistake - they trusted Sky News. Never do that."

                              She locked it up when that Tory fossil went on Sky News and called her a "bloody difficult woman" and compared her to Margaret Thatcher. He thought the cameras were off and forgot he was wearing a hot mic. He meant it as an insult but it is a badge of honor.

                                The opposition parties are already calling for early elections because they now have a Prime Minister for whom no one actually voted.

                                Ironically she made the same case nine years ago.
