Mother Shipton's prophecy about the EU

[gasbanni]

" I do see the great and the small kneeling and making supplication before the issue of Boudica, the people of Brigantes. Having crossed a small sea they implore the Brigantes to make peace and trade.
They realised after visions of famine and collapse that the brigantes were a great nation to whom their allegiance should be given. Emnity with the Brigantes would bring darkness and ruin to their houses"

She obviously meant people want to trade with the City of London, which is largely staffed by people of Essex descent.

Scots, Irish, Welsh, and people from less developed parts of England, depend on the City.

that's because you are obsessed with moaning about the EU. Surely its time you stopped whining? After more than 40 years? Just keep telling yourself that you WON! and everything will be OK. Try not to look at newspapers, the internet, or TV, and don't listen to the radio. It will only upset you.

You think I'm reading too much in to what she wrote .........
