    It's the Eurovision Song Contest Final on Saturday.

    I wonder if the UK will win?

      I heard it today, you know, if it was a straight contest it actually sounded naff enough to win.
      But as we all know, the contest is just slightly dodgy, then the fact it is from the UK will probably not do it any favours.:biggrin:

                        Brexit: Lib Dem manifesto pledges new EU referendum

                        The decisions already been made - they need to get on with it - another nail firmly hammered into the LD coffin.

                        Isn't it too late now in any case - we've told the EU we're leaving...

                            Exactly, clanless. Some people will keep wanting a referendum, in any context, just to get the answer that they want. I think the Liberal Democrats are being too Liberal with the use of the word Democrat by forgetting the decision to leave the EU was decided by a democratic vote.:doh::dunno::snorky:

                              As you say we can have as many referendums as you like now, but has the idiot asked the EU if they would accept a retraction of Article 50 in 2 yrs time.:snorky:
