    Indeed, the irony isn't lost on anyone I expect.

    I am seriously looking at making a Youtube video on last nights Gina Miller hour long lie-show.


    I have rarely heard such a magnitude of malevolence, lies and misunderstandings all smothered in superior, sanctimonious moral grandstanding.


    Every other thing she said was a contradiction, this for me exemplifies the level of ignorance in her kin.


    Her opening grandiose statement was that she never walks on by when she see's injustice. Never.


    So where was she and her lawyers when we were handing over power after power to a Brussels elite? Where was her concern for British democracy then?

    She finally ended up slipping out her real underlying motivation - she said she thinks the public voted for lies (you are all too stupid, whereas I am not) and like all pious 'liberals' thinks the people made the wrong decision, that this must be remedied by MP's going to all their constituents to re-educate them before we take this decision.

    She epitomises why 'liberals' have lost the respect of people, utterly unaware it is her kin that fell for lies and misinformation of truly epic proportions, that are profoundly disconnected from reality and good judgement

    I apologise. I got carried away.
    When people talk about others being used as pawns, the pawn has a right to be upset, particularly as the pawns have made their own plans.
    There will be no Brexit dividend for Britain.

    You're one of millions.

    I don't think it would be going out on a limb to say there will be proportionally more who do not share your view or made plans as you have.

    I also don't believe anyone was referring to you and other ex-pats as pawns. You appear to have invented something to be offended by here. The basic argument was around what should have happened and whom is responsible. The rights of EU citizens and UK ex-pats should have been dealt with as soon as possible, the current EU position stands in the way of that.

    Ha ha ha ha - which makes some of those posts yesterday about "Commonwealth" look insightful and the naysayers more than a little ignorant.
    As usual.

    Good stuff.

    It just goes to show that where you have two countries who both believe in free trade it's very straightforward to thrash out a deal in a short space of time.

    It takes so long for the EU to do these deals because a. they're protectionist and b. you need agreement from 28 countries. It won't happen straight away but I strongly believe once we disentangle ourselves from all that well be much better off.

  • The European currency may cease to exist in 10 years without significant economic reforms, mainly by France and Germany, according to French presidential candidate and former economy minister Emmanuel Macron.
    “The truth is that we must collectively recognize that the euro is incomplete and cannot last without major reforms,” Macron said in a speech at Humboldt University in Berlin on Tuesday.
