What a waste of time, effort and money. Johnsons latest epistle (for the dumbest Brexit voters only) is in response to the MEPs stating 31st October was the drop dead date for ratification of any deal. He couldn't have MEPs dictating the timescales! Truth is he's playing poker with a poor hand against a pro. Sadly Brexit is a lesson some English need to learn the hard way. We'll be all the better and more rounded for it in a generation i.e 2030s and renter the real world. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You are trashing your own country to teach people, who were friends and allies not that long ago, a lesson which they don't deserve. See, Herminge, if you took the time to actually read any of my numerous posts on the subject of Brexit this last four years, you and your ilk wouldn't still be coming out with so much cr@p -- If you have read my posts and you're just being bloody-minded there's not much I can do about it, but please for the love of whatever you believe in, don't expect right-minded people to take you seriously Now then, as your only argument for remaining in the EU has always been about the economy, allow me to present you with some figures (For the **** knows how many times) : 1) The UK buys more from the 27 than the 27 combined buy from us. So using the figures 70 million (UK population) buys more from the 445 million (EU population) than they do from us. 2) The UK were the 2nd largest NET contributor to the EU -- The EU loses our contributions/VAT and WTO tariff payments (with no one to fill the void) 3) Lack of free access to our waters will cost the EU at least £60 BILLION a year. 4) The EU can no longer afford the CAP payments to France- once CAP is taken into consideration- France pays in less than £2 billion a year. 5) The UK is Germany's single largest car export customer 6) Irish contributions are to double next year- that along with CT harmonisation will cripple the Irish economy. 7) Under current trading levels- a WTO exit will cost the EU an additional £6 billion a year- whilst netting the UK around the same amount 😎 The EU produces not a single item that cannot be sourced elsewhere and for less. 9) The EU - despite quadrupling in size, has declined from 34% of world GDP to below 14% today -- Once we have left that figure will drop to 10-11% 10) The EU itself admits that 90% of growth will be outside the EU 👈 And there's the real clincher. Trashing my country? Nope, the EU have done that. Edited September 6, 2020 by Jools 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Surfer 1,547 Posted September 6, 2020 (edited) The Donald Trump playbook.... act with complete impunity to voters and treaties. Time for a Tory revolt. It's in your face fraudulent behavior no-one should stand for. A test for every Conservative - your country or fascism? You now get to decide. Don't be like US Republicans who sold out their country for some Russian Rubles and permission to tear gas and shoot other Americans.

Surfer 1,547 Posted September 6, 2020 (edited) Before anyone says "there you go again with the Fascism accusation" - this is classic Fascist economic theory. Fascists believe that liberal democracy is obsolete and regard the complete mobilization of society is necessary to prepare a nation to respond effectively to economic difficulties. Such a state is led by a strong leader to forge national unity and maintain a stable and orderly society. Fascists advocate national economic self-sufficiency through protectionist and interventionist economic policies. The UK is effectively declaring economic war on the EU by demanding it can hand out State aid without any restrictions while at the same time maintaining full access to EU markets. Such "nationalization" of industry is exactly what Fascist and Communist countries did between 1920's -1970's and we all know how that ends...

Unsurprisingly, that make no sense whatsoever - if the DUP want to stay close to Britain then why have a border between it and the UK ? There has to be a border between the EU and the UK As it cannot be on mainland Ireland, the UK had to accept it within the UK... it really is that simple So stop lying Edited September 7, 2020 by Bill Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SwindonCanary 455 Posted September 7, 2020 What was I saying long ago. I always thought it would be the Irish sea "The UK is planning new legislation that will override key parts of the Brexit withdrawal agreement, risking the collapse of trade negotiations with Brussels. Sections of the internal market bill — due to be published this Wednesday — are expected to “eliminate the legal force of parts of the withdrawal agreement” in areas including state aid and Northern Ireland customs, according to three people familiar with the plans. The move would “clearly and consciously” undermine the agreement on Northern Ireland that Boris Johnson signed last October to avoid a return to a hard border in the region, one person with knowledge of the plans said. Last week, the EU’s chief negotiator Michel Barnier warned that “a precise implementation of the withdrawal agreement” was vital for the success of trade talks and a key issue of trust between the two parties.
