Sweetness and Light


So I cast the vote that dare not speak its name. Vincent Browne, hoary ancient journalist, in a vox pop, was shocked that he could only find a couple of people to admit on camera that they were voting NO. Now the history of the campaign as told by the victors is all sweetness and light with never a poster torn down and vile slurs cast on those that doubted the saccharine rainbow never uttered. When parliaments in Britain, France and Spain were allowed a free vote by their constituent parties there were many naysayers. Here they passed like whipped sheep through the lobbies. Pathetic.
