Queenie has made a complaint to your press standards body about that. Apparently it was all bollocks.

The Queen is constitutionally obliged to remain, and appear to remain, politically neutral, and its rather bad form for the Sun to report her private views--if even true--and push them for flag-waving propaganda purposes. She also doesn't have a vote on the matter.
The Sun has a decidedly mixed attitude to TEH ROYALZ...
It is just me, or does BREXIT sound like one of those nutrition bars that's supposed to keep you going till lunch time? "Try new BREXIT: Packed with all the goodness of hot-air and bitter nuts!"

Who let them in anyway?
Same people who let that Dutch geyser in to become their king in 1688. The home-grown alternatives just didn't cut the mustard. It's a bit ironic that people of German heritage are heading the UK and working at introducing democracy to the nation with great success. Their efforts are yet to be completed, though. To date none of the bums on seats in the upper house got there by a democratic vote.

The WHO cites the UK as having the best teeth in the world. They don't have to be straight to be health - something that applies to the general as well as the oral.

Why the fuck would anybody care about the opinion of an ancient rock band when it comes to comparative dentistry?

The peace process in Ireland has been long' at times very difficult and has required huge amounts of compromise on both sides. Grudgingly I have a great deal of admiration for what the Irish have managed to do - warts and all.
One of the principles has been that of open borders. Checkpoints are long gone and people are free to go between NI and Eire as they please.
If the UK leaves Europe that will mean that all the old national boundaries will presumably come back into play. Including the border between NI and the rest of Ireland one assumes. Hardly a step in the right direction.
