    If you refer to myself I have not and would not like to exclude you from posting.

    I have however stated your predisposition for deceit, together with a request for you to cease attempting to deliberately deceive in this thread.
    There is no suggestion of bullying, merely a request.

    Sadly judging by your quoted post you ignore this request and continue to deliberately attempt to deceive.

    EU credit rating at risk if UK doesn’t pay Brexit bill
    S&P Global says the claims were unlikely to be legally enforceable and a non-payment would not constitute a default, Reuters reports.

    “The European Union (AA-Stable/A-1+) ratings could come under pressure in an adverse scenario,” S&P says.

    “This is because our ratings on the EU are to a certain extent predicated on our expectation that the UK would honour its share of financial obligations to the EU.”

    S&P adds that the ratings of multilateral lenders that the UK pays into could also come under pressure.

    These include the European Investment Bank, the Inter-American Development Bank, Council of Europe Development Bank, African Development Bank, and Eurofima.

    British minister meets Dutch MPs for Brexit talks
    A British minister leading the negotiations on Britain’s withdrawal from the EU is in the Netherlands on Monday for ‘secret talks’ with MPs, BNR radio said on Monday. David Jones will meet MPs and foreign affairs minister Bert Koenders for the talks which will take place ‘behind closed doors’, VVD parliamentarian Anne Mulder told the broadcaster. Mulder said British withdrawal will result in a ‘lose lose situation’. ‘The skill is to limit the damage as much as possible. We have to make sure we can continue to trade in the coming years.’

    GroenLinks MP Bram van Ojik, who is also at the talks, told BNR he does not support the EU’s demand that the British pay a break-up fee before talks can continue about issues such as the free movement of people. ‘I would say we should look ahead and try to put the divorce talks in the perspective of what you want from a future relationship,’ he said. ‘That could make it easier

    Well said mate.
    I have been told I'd have to move to mainland Europe because I don't sing the praise of Glorious Brexit. :)
    Don't blame me, I voted Remain.

    'Brexit, which has made it cheaper to import groceries from the UK, is the main cause'

    Aren't you worried about the effect grocery price deflation will have on our Irish neighbours waistlines?

    If you've been told that it's not because of your view on brexit.
