I've often admired the 'man in the pub' wisdom of Mark Francois... Yeah, but the problem is the type of pub he frequents. Definitely a Wetherspoons.
For breakfast.

Apparently, the Metropolitan elite prefer cocktails on the train ... probably also a fan of the MacDonald breakfast 😉 😁

My village pub is mostly shut. It is owned by 2 lesbians who banned half the community for sexism and then went to live in Switzerland, refusing to sell it on. They left a Polish manager who only opens on billiards nights.

They refuse to sell it to the village and have been refused permission 2x to convert it . The nearest pub is 6 miles away . It used to be a great place and was very popular. Very sad. Even the WI was banned.

The Polish manager has probably decided not to open in case Mark Francois is in the area.

They left a Polish manager who only opens on billiards nights. Perhaps the manager's thinking is that the prevalence of balls on billiards nights acts as a counter point to the ownership by a female gay couple .
Edit: (was intended in the original but somehow got chopped off). I would normally replicate the term lesbian, however its use above gives every indication of having been spat out between gritted teeth, with other "obviously" related connotations attached, so I won't repeat.

I must say that I thought I'd stir up a fracas by having a pop at the Brexit Bulldog Himself, and I'm a bit disappointed that it has instead descended into pub related punning. Really Brackers, did you have to? martin44 , are you on holiday? Don't I deserve a two page lambasting and burning at the stake? This thread is really deteriorating. I'm going to have to start posting on the leave.uk facebook page instead at this rate.

You are Mark Francois. Edit Oh no, having read your edit, you are not. Or perhaps you're trying to throw me off the scent. How clever, Mark Francois. Oh no again, that is an oxymoron. Or a moron who should be deprived of oxy. Now that should be enough of a kick of the wasps nest.....
