Bob...

There’s a new acronym, I hear today: as heartfelt as it is ungrammatical. ‘Bob’ means ‘bored of Brexit’, which makes me a Bob, I suppose. Despite the referendum vote to leave the EU, I just couldn’t see it happening, and now, two years later, I’ve heard nothing to change my mind. Once Theresa May’s deal is voted down by parliament, in a few days, we’re guaranteed political mayhem until we have her resignation, followed by a general election. After that, all bets are off. I just hope we are to able to negotiate these choppy waters without people fighting in the streets.
