Re: Bercow Stops Third Vote

I don't think he has physically blocked a third vote but has said you cannot vote on essentially the same thing again (and again) unless it has fundamentally changed! Whether he has some sort of "agenda" is open for debate but as far as I can see his judgement is logical and makes sense ……...

Re: The Price of a US-UK deal post Brexit

I can as a matter of fact but when we leave the EU we will be trading with 1 partner, not 27, and a partner that needs us as much as we need them but then that fact seems to escape you? :roll:

That's brilliant! My wife, I and her client in a wheelchair went down this morning and just thought the harbour looked great being full of people at this time of year. :)

Re: 6 Nations

Well down Wales, you did Warren Gatland proud today! You were immense in attack, immense in defence and not half bad in the middle bits as well!

Totally deserved, nothing else to say really!

Re: 6 Nations

Who wrote this script apart from Warren Gatland and what do I know about rugby anyway? 🤫

It was delicious, really hot and spicy but I was lucky that I had made a nam prik paste from the thai chillies I grew last year, I don't think it would be t...

Re: The Price of a US-UK deal post Brexit

No, it's a "wish list", both sides will have them! It's normal to set out your stall at the start of things, then you get down to the serious business of negotiating the finer details. The US and Canada have recently agreed a new trade deal, do you seriously believe Canada has just rolled ...

Re: The Price of a US-UK deal post Brexit

I'm not sure what your point in posting this is, do you agree or disagree with the terms, do you think a UK-US trade deal is a good idea or not, or do you have some other reason in mind?
