I have all my British stocks in fish and chips firms. Are those still safe?

On a related note, we leave for Europe in a few hours (Paris and Rome for a week) Whee
Look at me!!!

Those Stoke-on-Trenters were really for the Leave movement. Whee
On another related note, I thought it was Stroke-in-Tent and it reminded me of my childhood days Blush

This cracked me up.

Trump is in Scotland and tweeted about the Brexit vote and was quickly shot down by all the Scottish celebrities. The tweet was deleted from 'The Donald's' account but here it is in all it's glory...
Sue Perkin's tweet is my favorite.

I bet he fired whoever fed him the bad info.

Maybe he was confused by all the imaginary sniper when he landed fire like Hillary.

On his first visit, when building the golf course in Scotland, Trump kept referring to himself as being half "Scotch".

The people in Scotland are not fans of Trump, he bullied his way into creating a golf course on a protected wildlife site.

One guy who refused to sell and managed to fight the Eminent Domain rules had his fence (which was fully on his own land and with no notification) torn down by Trumps people, who then erected a much taller fence blocking his views of the ocean AND Trumps people sent him a bill for the new fence! This guy and some other people Trump couldn't displace now fly Mexican Flags alongside the golf course, on tall poles of course, since they no longer have ocean views.

So you're figuring someone told Trump that Scotland took their country back?
