Should I Stay Or Should I Go

Should I stay or should I go now?
Should I stay or should I go now?
If I go there will be trouble
An' if I stay it will be double
So come on and let me know

Should I stay or should I go :)

Well I voted and as it is a secret ballot, my cross remains between me and the ballot box. My Grandad once told me in his broad Bolton accent "Never discuss politics or religion with your friends because if you do they won't be friends for long"

This is the scene outside my polling station after I'd gone to vote tonight. I took my little whippet with me to vote. Well not for her to vote, although I sometimes think she knows more than she lets on. She almost pulled over the secret ballot booth as her lead got tangled in the legs

For none UK Viewers, The UK voted today as to whether to remain in the European Union or Leave The European Union

I thought a gritty urban mono might tell the story nicely :)

Your vote was probably as frustrating and ours next November as we choose a president.

[Phil Howcroft]

@allie912 thanks allison, surely there can only be one vote in the USA and that is Hilary ... wait a minute I have just broke my grandad's advice about not discussing politics !!!

[jo]

great shot, not really politics in the USA just a little common sense needed!

[Lee]

I see this chap has the hump, and I suspect there will be a lot more have it tomorrow. =)

[Phil Howcroft]

@gamelee oh yes lee, good spot, i should have included that in my narrative :)

[Phil Howcroft]

@jokristina one would hope so jo :)

[Allison Williams]

@phil_howcroft Your offense is safe with me! I have reached the same conclusion. (Though I am no real fan of hers either)

[Phil Howcroft]

@allie912 :) :)

[Hazel]

Great topical shot, Phil.

[Hazel]

Ruby should have had a vote!

[Judith Johnson]

I think Ruby might have made a better informed decision! Good shot.

[Dione Giorgio]

Great candid. Now the result of th e vote is known and, I suppose the difficult thing for all involved what is the forward. Probably Ruby has better brains than some of the voters. You grandad's saying applies here too.

[Dione Giorgio]

Btw Malta will be losing a strong ally in Europe.

[Ivan]

Nicely recorded, Phil.

[Ali P]

Has Ruby applied for the PM's job???

[Phil Howcroft]

@alinz ahhh Ali, in post Brexit, she would have a difficult job sorting the mess out. Whippets are clever but not that clever !

@ivan Cheers Ivan :)

@sangwann indeed Dione , Malta has lost a Euro friend !

@busylady I think you are right judith

@quietpurplehaze she knows what I voted Haze :) and agreed with it :)

[Jacqui Jay]

A neat record shot of the important day. Now all we need to do is pick up the pieces and move forward.

[Frances Chaloner]

I say vote Ruby for PM! The whippet party rule! We'd all get shorter working days punctuated by frequent snoozes, a raw tripe diet would be seen as the ideal, and kindness would abound! Bar the diet that sounds good to me😂😂😂
Did you see this: https://mobile.twitter.com/hashtag/dogsatpollingstations?f=tweets&vertical=default&src=hash
I had a postal vote and Nick never took a shot of them for me when he went to vote.
Sounds like Ruby accompanied you to the voting cubicle.
Neat shot and title.

[Loopy-Lou]

Great shot - I've lost my photojo now. :-(

[Pat Knowles]

That was a day to remember!

[Sylvia du Toit]

Well done.
