Brexit as I see it.

kids: "are we nearly there yet?"

sat nav: "at the roundabout take the third exit"

dad: "Not much further now"

kids: "You said that an hour ago and it's not very comfortable in the boot of this car"

sat nav: "At the roundabout take the third exit"

dad: It's fine up here in the drivers seat and, let me tell you, the view is magnificent"

kids: "Shouldn't we have taken the third exit?"

dad: "I don't have to do what the sat-nav says if I don't want to"

kids: "It's cramped and we can't see anything. Can we come and sit up on the back seats"

dad: "No. The sat-nav says it's not allowed. Nothing I can do about that."

mum: "I agree with dad"

dad: "Anyway we had to take all the other seats out. It's all the fault of that hitch-hiker we picked up.

mum:"I agree with dad"

kid1: "I don't think this is fair. Can't we fix this?"

dad: "No, there is nothing wrong and if there if there is is not my fault"

kid2: "Listen to the dad, he knows. This is a rubbish car"

kid1: "He obviously lying. The dad has put us in here on purpose"

kid2: "No, dad's great. The car is ruined lets set fire to it"

kid1: "Can mum drive?"

kid2: "No. Dad says she crashed the car last time"

kid1: "Everyone says it was the other drivers fault"

kid2: "Dad said h's the best driver so it must be true"

dad: "Yes kids. safest if I drive".

kid2: "Can we set fire to the car?"

dad: "If you really want me to set fire to the car I will. You know I'll do anything for my kids."

kid1: "but we are in the car on a motorway it's dangerous and we'll be stuck at the side of the road"

kid2: "Scaredycat"

later

kid1: "It's getting hot in here on account of the car being on fire"

kid2: "Cars get hot or cold. It's natural. Don't worry"

later

kid2: (shivering in the rain, hair gently smouldering, watching the traffic go by and waving goodbye to dad as he gets in a taxi) "we'll who would have thought that would happen? But still this is much better than being stuck in the boot of that car eh?"
