Und nun in diese äußerst positive Hochstimmung kommt Ihr, meine geliebten englischen Freunde, mit dem Brexit daher oder auch nicht. Die ganze Welt versucht tagtäglich auf das Neue zu verstehen, was sich im Vereinigtem Königreich gerade abspielt. Je nach Tagesform: Mal mehr oder weniger erfolgreich ... .
The British voting public has no chance understanding some of these self centred, egotistical politicians; So the world? What chance?
As a voter in a simple democracy such as the UK where a win is a win, even if by one vote, we have over the centuries accepted that sometimes your party wins sometimes it loses. You vote in an MP to take decisions on your behalf for a multitude of unforeseen issues and have the opportunity at elections to oust an MP who makes the wrong ones, or whose party deliver the wrong ones. However with the referendum each constituency had its own clear outcome and this outcome leave or remain should be the way that the constituency MP votes in Parliament. He/she has a clear and unequivocal instruction, there is no consideration to be made by the MP. Yet we have 100's of MPs who choose to think that their voters, who by the way voted for them, are racist, too stupid or any number of other criticisms, to make a valid choice, therefore because the MP may be a remainer he/she chooses to ignore his/her voters and frustrate the will of the people and the government.
To be clear I voted leave, but was to a degree ambivalent. I voted so because of the many times in my life I have been told in business, "sorry Michael you cannot do that, EU law" I will quote you a recent experience. In 2015 I bought a new Flair in Dortmund from Ulrich Durrwang. Super guy by the way. German export plates only offer minimum insurance with no way to upgrade. My UK insurers gave me full comp on the chassis number from the moment I paid Ulrich for the van! Now, 2019, I have a new Morelo, completing build as I write, I hope, and I asked my insurers for the same cover again. They cannot. This is not their business choice but a new EU directive concerning the insurance of EU registered vehicles by other EU nationals. This has outlawed a UK insurer covering a vehicle just "born" in another EU state. A simplistic definition but the crux of the issue in my case.
But already the pigeons are coming home to roost. Many MPs that have violated their voters trust are now in the process of being deselected, which may focus some of the others to do their duty and vote according to their constituents instruction. So we wait for the next "meaningful vote".

Die Innenausstattung bestand aus einer Matratze und einem Werkzeugwagen. Als gerade ausgelernter KFZ Mechaniker war das natürlich spannend. Ebenfalls befand sich auf seinem Schrottplatz ein verunfallter VW Bulli T4 als Campingbulli Dehler Profi, welches zu der Zeit ein absolutes Highlight war. Spontan wurden wir uns über den Preis einig und so wurde ich Besitzer eines abgerockten T3 und dem verunfallten Dehler Profi ...
