And anyway, it just isn't appropriate for a woman to be running a country.

James O'Brien on Brexit: "The people who realise they were lied to are getting angrier with the people who warned them than the people who did the lying."

I like how the Facebook comment section immediately proves him right.

I wish people would remember that this is supposed to be satire.

I know what appropriate means. Why isn't it appropriate for a women to be running a country.

[Questers]

I mean... come on though. You know it isn't.

Pretty sure it was a joke.

Not really though...

I am unsure.

Nigel's getting salty that the government won't do whatever his unelected ass tells it to.

Unelected?

Unelected?

He's not a Member of Parliament. Being an MEP doesn't give him any say in UK government policy.

[Ifreann]

Unelected?

He's not a Member of Parliament. Being an MEP doesn't give him any say in UK government policy.

He was elected to the European Parliament, though, was he not?

[Napkiraly]

Unelected?

He's not a Member of Parliament. Being an MEP doesn't give him any say in UK government policy.

Doesn't mean he can't make suggestions publicly or criticize positions taken by the government.

[Eastfield Lodge]

Unelected?

He's not a Member of Parliament. Being an MEP doesn't give him any say in UK government policy.

I thought the entire point of the referendum was that Farage had a say in UK policy and we didn't want him to?

[Vassenor]

He's not a Member of Parliament. Being an MEP doesn't give him any say in UK government policy.

Doesn't mean he can't make suggestions publicly or criticize positions taken by the government.

But he's literally going HOW DARE THEY NOT DO WHAT I WANT.

[Napkiraly]

But he's literally going HOW DARE THEY NOT DO WHAT I WANT.

No he's saying "How dare they do something for which many Brexit campaigners championed and which many supporters support". He's not the only person to have advocated the points-based system and it's perfectly legitimate of him to criticize May's position.

I mean none of us are elected and we certainly get miffed when they government doesn't do what we think is right or want and vocalize it.

From the comments section it does not look like many people were expecting a unicorn.

[Celritannia]

where is Yorkshire?

Also, speaking of, since Brexit, God's own country is going to be even worse off.

I mean it gets hardly any money from Westminster (which May's government wa not democratically elected. Do I smell hypocrisy with regards to Brussels which is democratically elected? I think I do).

Brexit was the worst decision for the UK.

[Ifreann]

where is Yorkshire?

The north-east of England.
