just 4 days to go til the referendum. Or, as its now known by everyone outside of Westminster: the Fucking Referendum.

Because we never wanted it. We never asked for it. But we have it. Due to a momentary Farage-panic by David Cameron. And everyone is now asking “how divisive will this be for the nation???” “Will we ever get over it???”

Yes we will. Oddly, the referendum is not in any way divisive among the population. Mentally unstable right-winger murderers aside. We talk about it, we discuss it, it is now the standard dinner party question: ‘In or out?’

And it never gets heated, it never gets nasty, its just opinions and speculation. And most people really don’t care that strongly.

So unlike the Scottish referendum which indeed divided a nation completely, even though it was only Scotland, we will get over it. In fact we’re over it already.

The politicians though, in particular the Conservative Party, will not get over it. It has become a nasty, yes divisive, slag-fest of anger, passion and misplaced and overblown exaggeration on both sides. Consequently, they all hate each other, and we couldn’t give a shit. Either about their fictitious arguments and doomsday scenarios, nor about the fact that the Government is doomed. On Friday it will have to be rebuilt. Completely.

Never mind, we won the rugby in Australia, which is as brilliant as it is unique, and we can all look forward to Romania vs Albania in the football tonight. Wow. Doesn’t get much bigger than that.

Arrived home last night just after midnight. And, as usual, spent the entire return process swearing that I’ll never travel Easyjet again, and never use Gatwick airport again. Til next time, at least.

Happy homecoming Sunday
