Add to that, the fact that something in the order of 80% of MP's had no desire to leave the EU....why would they? they want to remain as it gives em another job opportunity in the future if they get voted out in their constituancy. |
Re: Referendum is a load of crap.!!
Yes Monkey Hanger, they have their eyes set firmly on the trough.
I think the delaying tactics are contrived to breed apathy.....to foster a desire to just get it over and vote for whatever sorts out the political paralysis. They had not factored in the pure anger of those who believed we would be out by now....and they STILL do not get it. The only way this is going to get settled is with a general election....and those remainer MP's given the boot. Even in that situation they will not be leaving Parliament poor. |

It is good to know that there are people in the other EU countries who are not just disillusioned by the shenanigans, but would also like out too.

He has an uphill struggle....mainly because there are so many treacherous snakes in Parliament....all intent on thwarting the will of the people. I think they are drawing things out for as long as possible to make the voters get fed up.....to get them to change their minds. I have not changed mine....OUT....OUT.....OUT.

Unless of course the government are going to make a vast drive to fit ALL buildings with photo-voltaic panels to generate power....but can you see it happening?

Re: Referendum is a load of crap.!!
This is an epic of a thread wander.
So I am going to try to get Back on topic. I am glad that Boris has said there will be NO discussion unless the hated backstop is removed. The crew over in Brussels are still saying that the backstop CANNOT be changed.....so it is looking like the WA agreement will not be ratified. JRM was saying that the only way out of the impasse is for those Tories who have thwarted Brexit so far, should table a motion to revoke article 50. He says that this will not happen for two reasons.....it would fail to get the votes and those Tories who do not want to leave do not have the guts to do this. The only other way is to bring a vote of 'no confidence' and bring down the government. Right now I do not know how that would go down. On the first day of his premiership the mood in Parliament seemed to have lightened considerably....with an air of optimism that has been absent for the last three years. I really, really, DO hope that Boris succeeds in getting us out....not with a rehashed version of the TM withdrawal agreement....but with something better...but failing that, leave by default...which is what we should already have done. No extensions....these cost us £1billiom quid each month we stay captured....so it is lucrative for Brussels to give us yet more extensions. I want to be OUT....right OUT! |
Re: Referendum is a load of crap.!!
And suddenly those in Brussels are getting a bit twitchy.
They know that they are not dealing with an apologetic appeasing Prime Minister who wants to please both leavers and remainers....they are dealing with someone who might just call their bluff.....and keep £39 billion quid settlement money. Germany is on the brink of a full blown recession, France is similarly financially strapped. So who is going to make up the balance of the UK contributions when we leave. Maybe the mandarins over there are going to have to rein in their spending....fly easy jet and get a liking for pale ale...or Vimto. |
Re: Referendum is a load of crap.!!
Another bit of news(from a source that seems to have its' nose put out of joint by Boris being PM....once a leaver publication, but now a remainer).
Boris has been up in Manchester promising to find money for better inter city transport links....this news media calls this a 'bribe'....nothing of the sort, it is a long awaited recognition that these links are long overdue. Maybe it will be funded from the money we do not pay to Brussels as a Leaving charge. There are some that say we must pay this money.....as it is part of money we agreed to pay for the pensions of those like JCJ and MB. What about the assets that the U.K. Have funded, buildings....let them take the money out of our joint assets. I hate this use of biased language....it is like when the media say 'crashing out'.....meaning leaving by default. I can see through it, but there are some that will swallow this |
Re: Referendum is a load of crap.!!
How on earth should we Pay the money? The E.U. kept telling us nothing is agreed, until everything is agreed!! now that means the money also.
|
Re: Referendum is a load of crap.!!
Apparently Cashy, we agreed to pay a very large sum towards the pensions of those who work for the EU...and because this was agreed, it appears that we are duty bound to pay it.
Though just how it would be enforced I am not sure(but it involves convoluted international law). It is said that if we renege on this payment then other countries that we might wish to trade with would not trust us to be good to our word. Personally I would like to tell the EU to 'Get stood on' (a more diplomatic phrase for foxtrot oscar ...and I do not mean foreign office) they can pay for their own bloody pensions. As I said, there must be common property in the EU that we have paid towards...money that we can never get back...let them take it out of that. I do Hope that Boris hold his nerve....and fails to cave in under the stony stares of the barstewards over there. |

No deal where else do we have to go, the deal the EU has on offer was such a bad deal for the UK that it was defeated 432 to 202, if the EU has nothing else to offer then that only leave no deal, if the MP’s force an election it would solve nothing, the EU has on offer is still so unpalatable, most of labour’s votes come from the north of England where most voters cast their votes to leave yet Corbyn persists on a remain stance, that seems political suicide

Everybody with eyes to see, ears to listen, and a brain to think know precisely what the Remoaners mean when they, and their propagandists in the Brussels Broadcasting Corporation, say they can’t accept a so-called “no deal”.
Notwithstanding that Treason May’s ‘deal’ is no such thing, it’s a treaty with the ‘deal’ yet to be agreed, and has been voted down three times by MPs, it’s simply about over-turning the referendum result. https://briefingsforbrexit.com/remai...eal-intention/ |

Italy and Greece are all but bankrupt.(they certainly cannot service their debt) There is civil unrest in France and the yellow vests have not gone away....Macron has just applied a D notice to the reporting of the uprising. So the press are banned from reporting it. Germany is on the brink of a recession. The EU was a socio political experiment that turned into Frankensteins Monster. As a trading organisation it was acceptable,( we'll sort of...there was still a lot of underhand stuff going on...skulduggery) but it had ideas above its station...a wannabe superstate. It has sucked the life out of a number of countries(Portugal, Italy, Spain, Greece, Ireland) and turned them into nothing more than vassal states...it has stolen their identities. |

The EU was a socio political experiment that turned into Frankensteins Monster. it proves yet again that BIG is not always better. local government re organisation closer to home proved that point. its gone from being a trading organisation monster to a super state in the making as many wont it to be even in this country. |

This morning I just saw video from the G7 meeting in Paris.
It showed Boris and The Donald walking together down a grand staircase. Here was my immediate comment: "Where did Boris get that suit? And didn't they have one in his size?" Not exactly Saville Row. -Joe |

Boris had already grown out of it.
He needs to shrink quite a bit to achieve a fit. It is that or buy bigger suits! |
Re: Referendum is a load of crap.!!
It wasn't a fashion parade.....and it just goes to show that he cares not one jot about what other people think of him.
You may say 'well to be smart you have to look smart'.....TM always looked smart, but that got us absolutely nowhere in respect of negotiations. She was backwards and forwards like a fiddlers elbow, trying to beg for favours. So looks are not what matters in the great scheme of things.....it is decisive actions...and they still need to happen, but Donald Tusk looked like a bulldog licking wazz off a thistle.....and Guy Verhofstad is swivel eyed at the thought that the UK won't stump up 39 billion. So while Boris is not sartorially elegant....he is doing alright(and I never thought I would say that) |
Re: Referendum is a load of crap.!!
So if he manages to get us what was voted for who gives a rats?
