The truth about the Brexit referendum is that millions upon millions of voters voted "Leave" because they believed that leaving the EU would mean a bonus of £50 million per day for the NHS.

The campaign was fraudulent and ballot-rigging is not acceptable in a democracy.

Cobblers, thats the favourite myth of the remainers, but the fact that the £350 million figure was incorrect was well publicised a good 2 months before the referendum and the idea that it was ALL for the NHS was created by the media,. If you find and listen to the actual earlier speeches you'll find that both Boris and Gove actually said something like "Lets spend the money on our priorities SUCH AS the NHS". However I'll admit that in the later speeches, Boris at least had succumbed to saying it like the media did.

And they never did repaint the figure on the infamous bus, but then that would be extra spend and would have got them fined more..

Bye the way the Remain campaign spent £19,309,588 plus the £6million or so of taxpayers money on the pro-remain government leaflet and the Leave Campaign spent £13,332,56. Yet it was the finances of the Leave Campaign that got investigated and fined. Funny peculiar that.

How can someone assume how and why someone else voted.
It's not even 'assume' really - it's fact.

I am so utterly fed up with Brexit "news" I now regularly watch CNN. Features Trump a lot, but that's always good for a laugh and I don't have to watch the money leeching shits from the HofC bleating on about it.

FUCK!! When is this bollocks going to end? No, don't tell me. I'd rather not know

( The spell check told me that I can only have "this bollock" or "these bollocks")

Anniversary of the sisma... Earthquake in Abruzzo, and they sent Berlusconi. Hadn't they suffered enough already?

Coronation Street has been running for almost 60 years and guess what - a black family is about to move into the street!

Absolutely nothing unusual about that in itself but this will be the first black family ever to live on Coronation Street.

They'll be moving into the house previously occupied by Norris Cole.

I'm sure old Norris will be thrilled with the new occupants and thinking what a marvellous example of an integrated society Coronation Street now represents.

News reports suggest that Meghan has refused to have her child delivered by the Queen's gynaecologists, preferring instead to instruct her own medical experts in the matter.

Conspiracy theorists were quick to suggest that this confirms suspicions that her pregnancy is entirely fake and that, at the appropriate moment, a child from a surrogate mother will be handed over in the place of the non-existent genuine royal newcomer.

Surrogacy has been going on since the year dot and I see Kate Middleton has been dragged into this too, with suspicions about her births.

There was one famous proven royal surrogate baby (so famous I can't find a reference to it!!) as I remember seeing a documentary about it, but for the life of me I can't remember which member of the Royal family it was, and it was I think 18th century or early 19th. Now I come to think of it, it wasn't so much a surrogate baby as a healthy one from a commoner secretly swapped with a royal baby that died a birth. One smuggled into the bedroom and the dead one smuggled out.

Modern day - what a load of keech!. ( ch as in loch)

It could have been James II and Mary...but that was 17th century. Not sure if it was actually proven, though, so you might still be thinking of another one.

I don't believe it! May had the cheek to go to church today. What a lying hypocrite.

Jon Snow's skin appears to be 100% white.

Should this be a matter of concern?

Very much so - to Jon Snow if he's ever applying for a TV job in 21st-century Britain.

(Apologies to the easily offended but whenever I see a comedy door standing slightly ajar, I get this irresistible urge to kick it open)

But his skin is not very diverse is it.

He could have made more of an effort.
