Re: Eu trade talks/covid-19
So on top of the outlandishly spendthrift budget which will cause UK borrowing to soar stratospherically, the UK will now have to contend with a Brexit in which negotiations have not even begun, plus the multi-billion cost of tackling Covid-19. I would put zero chance on Trump coming to the UK's ai...

Re: Remainers vow never to use Brexit coins
And I've no doubt whatsoever you would be singing a VERY different tune too if the result was reversed. If our voting system was fair we would have Proportional Representation but we have a loaded system that favours the Tories. As I said in earlier posts the "Lets Get Brexit Done" suppor...

I’ve no doubt whatsoever that you’d be singing a VERY different tune if the vote was to Remain. Just because you disagree with the result doesn’t mean the system is broken.

Re: Not what we wanted to hear: it's looking like a No Deal :(
How about having a second referendum.........but with exactly the same wording.....Leave or Remain. We have all had over 3 years of pantomime, quarreling, breaking of Parliamentary precedence, MPs quitting membership of parties on whose manifests they were elected on. And if the majority is Leave, y...

Re: Not what we wanted to hear: it's looking like a No Deal :(
I really cannot believe that Johnson would stoop so low...and if true it will come back to bite him 100 times over. The EU holds a weapon 27 times larger than the UK and will seek to punish the UK and it's citizens for any act of sabotage. It bodes ill for those of us who live and work in Europe. h...

Re: At last, a clear Brexit strategy.
Interesting the assumption John Major is now making, that Boris will now ‘ignore’ the Benn law, not to have a no-deal brexit, but using an old method to ignore through privy council. Boris and ALL his cabinet refuse to stop calling it the “Surrender” bill - even though it has been asked of them as ...

Re: Does David Cameron regret the referendum...
Well, it would appear that HiC will continue his arrogant posts and insult those who voted to Leave his beloved European Union. So as far as he is concerned there are 17.4 million snowflake twerps, and worse, not forgetting he includes his own offspring in that. So be it. At least they voted, unlike...

To Jim B and Les Bean..... I have read and appreciate your replies. Of course the term 'twerp' doesn't make me break out in an outrageous sweat.

This mess is all because he thought his 'project fear' would win, hence he had no need to prepare for Brexit. No, the mess is because twerps who didn't realise what they were voting for were suckered in by the lies of Boris and Farage and voted to leave the EU - our nearest, closest and largest tra...
