I will admit I was marching more against Brexit than for a second poll. I regard this as an issue that should never have been put to a referendum.

Yes, Jon, it was a useless campaign and that is where our friend Saint Jeremy comes in since he was in large measure responsible for its uselessness. Even his silence about the march has been lamentable.

Fair point. In recent seasons, i'd have marched in favour of changing most of Sunderland AFC's results. The difference here is that people voted yes or no without a proper appreciation of facts that are now known: the dishonesty of the NHS pledge, the sad but real threat to jobs, the strong suspicion of illegal tampering with the referendum campaign and more. To be honest, I am not even sure a second vote would produce a different result - and I'd still be embittered. But it's the least the country deserves given that we chose to decide such a complex issue in this absurd manner in the first place..

Thanks, Colin. Good memories and you encouraged me to back and correct a couple of typos ...

Shujana: I will look back in my files and try to locate contact details. If I am successful, I will try to put you in touch (naturally provided Dany Laurent is agreeable to this) but it is more than five years on so while I will do my best, I cannot make any promises ...
