  1. Perhaps all those brexiteers who claim that trade is back to normal would like to explain the latest disastrous figures on dairy exports to the EU released by the Food and Drink Federation: https://www.msn.com/en-gb/money/other/why-has-boris-johnson-s-brexit-deal-caused-uk-milk-and-cream-exports-to-plunge/ar-BB1g6UUF?ocid=msedgdhp Why has Boris Johnson’s Brexit deal caused UK milk and cream exports to plunge? Milk and cream sales to the EU have slumped 96 per cent as a result of Brexit-related trade barriers, according to figures released this week. The Food and Drink Federation said the new trading arrangement with Europe had cost exporters more than £1.1bn since January, when Britain left the customs union and single market. Milk and cream exports collapsed by 96.4 per cent while cheese sales to the EU fell by 64.6 per cent in the year to February.
  2. What a surprise, another pathetic and obvious lie from you know who. According to the Mail article (helpfully posted by Sonyc) the Blairs spent well below the £30,000 a year limit.
  3. Or as Michael Gove would say, "Let them smoke crack"
  4. Oh dear! you're really struggling aren't you, but what else should we expect from a degenerate paedophile apologist. You're a disgusting excuse for a human being.
  5. https://www.msn.com/en-gb/news/world/crime-against-humanity-human-rights-experts-issue-damning-report-on-police-killings-of-black-americans/ar-BB1g6Cz4?ocid=msedgntp https://inquirycommission.org/website/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/Commission-Report-15-April.pdf
  6. More of an Ipswich signing (a croc of sh*ite).
  7. Or, indeed, any one of your posts. Must be fun living in that bile vat that passes for your brain.
  8. So Herman's one vote resulted in an 80 seat majority for the Tories did it? Ask nursey to up your number of pills, it clearly couldn't do any more harm to that raddled brain remnant squatting inside your skull.
  9. Perhaps you should try reading my posts and the articles I have linked. None of them dispute that the UK has done excellently on vaccine roll-out, and has vaccinated a far greater percentage of the population than the EU. They simply refute any claim, like that put forward by SC, who said, "I feel the sick people are the EU not giving out the vaccine when they can". Even your graphs show that to be patently false. If you can find anything in my posts or in the Telegraph article which claims the EU has vaccinated as well as the UK then feel free to quote it. The "reality" that I and the Telegraph article put forward is that the EU is significantly improving its vaccine roll out, not your attempt to impute to us an absurd claim that it has been as good as the UK. One thing that does remain a fact, however, is that the chaotic government response to covid prior to the vaccine roll out means the UK still tops the table of European countries for numbers of covid deaths.
  10. Well, since you obviously find it difficult to interpret a simple bar chart, perhaps this article from that famous EU loving newspaper, The Telegraph will help you realise your claim about the current state of the EU vaccine programme is a lie: https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2021/04/17/whisper-quietly-europes-vaccination-programme-taking-could/ Whisper it quietly: Europe's vaccination programme is taking off - and could catch the UK
  11. Really! So you don't think it's possible that in the last three months they might have actually upped their vaccination rates? Perhaps you might like to take a look at some up-to-date figures: https://tradingeconomics.com/european-union/coronavirus-vaccination-rate
  12. Frankly, I couldn't give a damn what an intellectually retarded old gammon like you thinks. Anyone with even the slightest grasp of linguistics would know that all these pathetic attempts to claim I have any other identities on this site is utter nonsense. The fact you could even post a piece of childish "playground" tosh like this shows you are risibly unaware of your own crass stupidity.
  13. Yet again you should read the article instead of just the title. Perhaps then you would have spotted the rather helpful warning: "This article is more than 2 months old" Indeed, it is dated Jan 27th (so 3 months out of date)
  14. You are a very sad man if this retarded absurdity is all you can come up with. Comment necessary.
  15. Yet another blatant lie for which you have not the slightest evidence. And BTW, despite your obvious desire that more EU citizens die from Covid, the fact remains that the UK has the highest total of deaths of any European nation. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/COVID-19_pandemic_by_country_and_territory
  16. Oh dear! Another epic fail from bird-brain. Not only is your solitary sentence in defiance of English grammar and spelling, it also demonstrates yet again that you struggle to understand even the most basic expressions. I will repeat what Macron said one last time: Asked whether a Leave or Remain vote in France could have ended with the same result, Mr Macron told the BBC's Andrew Marr Show: "Yes, probably. Probably in a similar context. But our context was very different so I don't want to take any bets." Is it the fact that his comment contains a "disguised" conditional that taxes your tiny brain beyond its miniscule capacity? Perhaps it didn't help that Macron was speaking rather clumsily in a second language? Either way it ought to be clear to all but the severely challenged that the phrase, "Yes probably. Probably in a similar context. But our context was very different..." is to be understood as claiming something like, "If we had a similar situation to the UK the French would probably vote for brexit too, BUT we (French) have a very different context, so who knows". Every opinion poll of the French population's attitude to remaining in the EU shows them in favour of doing so. I note you have not come forward with a poll saying the contrary despite your lie that I am wrong about this FACT. Learn to read things properly, and with at least some degree of critical self-awareness. It would save you making such an embarrassment of yourself on a daily basis. .
  17. Exactly the same over-simplistic correlation of stats presented as if that is where analysis begins and ends. As I have said repeatedly stats are simply stats, and any correlations between stats are merely the starting point for an analysis which involves investigation through a variety of social research methods. For example, your blunt correlation of numbers of arrests with numbers of shootings is strikingly superficial. Before one even begins investigating such a correlation there are questions to ask about why black people are more likely to be arrested for certain "offences" than white people (e.g. possession of small amounts of drugs). However, I realise through past experience of your posts that I'm wasting my time expecting you to consider such things.
  18. Breaking news! The Tory Party central office did pay for the refurbishment of the no.10 flat. It now describes that as a loan to Johnson. Johnson has broken the ministerial code by not declaring that fact. https://www.itv.com/news/2021-04-26/robert-peston-exclusive-tory-party-gave-loan-to-boris-johnson-for-downing-street-refurbishment
  19. And while I'm on the subject of the trade deal with Australia, perhaps the brexiteers on here would like to watch the following clip then remind us what they said about our trade deficit with the EU: Just like the trade deal with Japan, Truss and her supporters (forgive the pun) claim what a fantastic deal she has done only for reality to prove we've been shafted again by a foreign power. Any school kid could tell you this is what happens when you negotiate from a position of painfully obvious weakness. So while the Aussies flood our markets with cheap tariff-free-hormone-saturated beef, our beef farmers will have lost not only the EU market but their home market too; wonderful work Liz. Brexit is turning the UK into a third-rate trading nation. Next we'll be joining the CPTPP without any say whatsoever in their rules of business. I guess feeble paupers have to be grateful for any crumbs they can sweep from the floor.
  20. Interestingly the figure of £500m is precisely the sum that government "experts" predict as the improvement in GDP as a result of Truss' "fantastic" deal with the Aussies (https://www.msn.com/en-gb/money/other/brussels-chaos-uk-tells-eu-it-s-all-set-for-wto-rules-as-australia-deal-gives-huge-boost/ar-BB1g0FTv?ocid=msedgntp). So, one months loss of trade due to brexit will be offset by a year's trade with Australia, on the big assumption that a deal turns out to be as "good" as claimed. She had better radio Boris, "I'm going to need a bigger deal".
  21. Ok, find me a poll that says the French public would vote leave.
  22. Seems Michael ( coke-head) Gove has just misled parliament. He said he was "in the room with Johnson" and heard him say nothing of the sort. Robert Peston has just said on LBC that Gove was not in the room where those words were allegedly shouted.
  23. Probably the only person with a face more purple than Jools.
  24. Now finish the complete phrase you moron "... Probably in a similar context. But our context was very different so I don't want to take any bets." Add to this the FACT that all the polls in France still show that the public are in favour of remaining in the EU. You're worse than bloo*dy johnson when it comes to lying (by which I mean you're both liars but you're worse at it).
