Should we have a second EU referendum?As you say "people voted Leave for all different reasons". Some voted leave to get the vast amounts for the NHS which Boris's bus promised, which the Chancellor has said doesn't exist. Some voted leave to stop immigration, but the total number coming into the country including those from outside the EU, which the Government could control now if it chose to, continues to rise. Some voted to return to Parliamentary democracy, but Mrs May seems determined to get government by government ministers and Whitehall mandarins. Did anyone vote leave so that their job would be exported to the continent or the Far East, which the financial institutions are already doing, and the major multi-national manufacturing companies are now telling us will happen? Will those who voted Leave and whose job is exported be happy to work in a Care Home or picking vegetables for the minimum wage to replace the EU workers who are no longer admitted? When people voted Leave they did so because of a lot of different promises, most of which are now seen to be pie in the sky, and without knowing what terms would result from the negotiations with the EU. When people know what voting leave will actually mean, then they should have a chance to vote for what they will get, rather than what they hoped for!ViewDate:

Do you like or dislike Facebook's plan for a new 'Dislike' button?I've always been uncertain whether "Like" means "I like what you've said" or "Thank you for posting that", and the same would seem to be true of "Dislike". If as your write-up says it is intended as "a way for people to express empathy", then it's a good idea, but the wrong name!ViewDate:

Which is your favourite Airline?For me it has to be a scheduled carrier, as I've got long legs and I don't fit in the seats on the charter and cheap airlines! We've used BA most often, and had good service, but our choice is usually based on who flies to where we want to go to. at a reasonable time of day, and has seats available.
