Last year the Remain campaign came out with some ludicrously over-exaggerated claims about what Brexit would mean: 3 million jobs lost, huge tax rises as well as the Islington branch of Waitrose having replace all the artisan Polenta dip with lard or whatever it is that Nick Clegg thinks poor people eat. However, now that Brexit is happening, they’ve decided to double down those stories and the latest claims is that a full scale military war with Spain is coming our way. I imagine that if it were to happen then thanks to cuts in the defence budget it may well end up being settled by a drunken brawl outside a nightclub on the Balearic islands; I don’t know what’s worse really, a shot from a G36 assault rifle or a Club 18-30 quadruple shot of cheap ouzo drunk out of a shoe. The whole thing is utterly bonkers though, even General Franco didn’t try invading Gibraltar and he kinda had a thing for starting wars in Spain.

And talking about Fascists, this week Ken Livingstone came out of his house again and again and again to talk about Hitler and he was subsequently suspended for calling the Labour party into disrepute. The historical point he was claiming is at best dubious but the thing to take away really is that apparently you can be suspended or expelled from Labour if you say things that make the party look unprofessional or disreputable, which I suppose would at least explain why the leadership have kept their mouths shut when asked about policy or what they think about Brexit.

Anyway, for now, if we get drafted into a war with Spain, I’ll see you on the beach, mine’s a pint of San Miguel and otherwise see you next week!
