India warns the UK's immigration policy could wreck any hopes of a post-Brexit free trade deal...
https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2016/nov/06/india-warns-uk-immigration-policy-wreck-post-brexit-trade-dealTheresa May’s hopes of a post-Brexit trade deal with India suffered a hammer blow from Delhi as the prime minister prepared to make her first official visit to the country.
A spokesman for India’s minister of external affairs suggested that a policy brought in by May as home secretary restricting the right of Indian students to stay in the UK after graduation could prove to be a block on any progress.“The great enemy of the truth is very often not the lie – deliberate, contrived, and dishonest – but the myth, persistent, persuasive, and unrealistic.
Belief in myths allows the comfort of opinion without the discomfort of thought.”

I think Farage is pretty much spot on with his comments.
In the event of a Brexit fudge I do fear for our democracy.“Britain- A friend to all, beholden to none”. 🇬🇧0 -

The biggest threat to our democracy is a government trying to act like tin-pot dictators without parliamentary oversight and control.
The recent court ruling makes that prospect far less likely - but we must remain ever-vigilant.“The great enemy of the truth is very often not the lie – deliberate, contrived, and dishonest – but the myth, persistent, persuasive, and unrealistic.

We`ll leave Cable Street to the Anti-Semites of Momentum and other advocates of the New Fascism infesting left wing politics in the UK.
There are fascists on both the far left and far right.
I have no idea why you think what part of the spectrum they belong has any relevance whatsoever.Change is inevitable, except from a vending machine.0 -

Since when has Parliament scrutinised or controlled government negotiations with foreign countries?
International treaties or negotiations are never controlled by parliament, or have parliamentary oversight.“I could see that, if not actually disgruntled, he was far from being gruntled.” - P.G. Wodehouse0
