Bill Blain: “The UK Vs Europe, The Best Comedy Show Ever!”

The UK vs Europe, the best comedy show ever!
‘Hold tight, wait till the party’s over, hold tight, we’re in for nasty weather…’
You really can’t make this stuff up. Get out the blunted spoons as the EU demands UK pays to play or forget a December start to real talks. The UK government in disarray. Global investors shaking their heads asking WTF and getting a bit bored and disinterested by it.
It could be a top class comedy.
Imagine the scene… A wood panelled office in Downing Street; Theresa Maybemight is trying to rebalance her cabinet. After carelessly losing a remainer last week, she has to sack a Brexiteer this week. Howls of hysterical studio laughter as cosmic balance is restored by chucking another one to the wolves.. Till tomorrow… as a blonde chubby bloke winks to camera…
Back in Brussells (actually Berlin, cos let’s be honest about it) a group of German experts have reviewed the situation and concluded Brexit might be bad for Germany (in comedy German accents) so therefore it can’t happen. End of discussion. Crashing minor chords. Their stooges in Brussels read out a demand for ‘One Gizillionbillion dollars’ in a passable Dr Evil impersonation (comedy Belgian accents) and give poor little Theresa six weeks to pay. Or else…
