Funny how you perceive non-existent insecurities rather than question why the Chancellor was "meeting ministers of the Visegrad Group of eastern states."
:whistle:

So just to enlighten you:

How do you know the insecurities are non-existent?

Well, well, well, common sense will prevail, who woulda thunk it....

The colossus that was Project Fear deflates to Project whimper.

Any chance you can plaster this on Twitter? Remainers there are still certain all we face is doom and dread. You could tweet this to Julia Hartley-Brewer, she's on QT tonight. Dan Hanan too, he's on LBC for a live debate at 10.

No worries if not!! I don't know how to copy n paste from my iPad.

If Brexit is going to be the spectacular success that the Brexit lemmings claim it is going to be, then I can't understand why members of the Conservative party aren't lining up to challenge their leader so they can be PM during our glorious departure and resultant golden age...

Perhaps they actually know what an unmitigated disaster it is actually going to be, and would prefer to have somebody carry the can...

Simple. Because you will not see this success in a short term.
It might take more than a decade to see the impact of
- not paying £350m a week
- having a global trade under WTO rather than being told by the EU what to do.
- having your own freedom that can not be overruled by ECJ.

Etc etc

Other reason they have no or very little chance to win

- having international trade rather limited to the EU. Which tell you what to do.

Do you honestly think we pay the eu £350m per week currently?

About £350 million without the rebate. About £250 million a week after the rebate applied.

I do love your "eat less" approach to dealing with food getting more expensive. Like it's a viable or desirable option.

On flying; getting into the US is awful these days. Europe a doddle.
I don't visit the US unless I have to, but I'm in Europe several times a year.

Just now on the Sky paper review the guests were discussing the obesity crisis and how it seems immune from State actions over years.

But you think we eat the right amount? Who knew!

What are you going to say when you realise we are prospering like billyo quite soon?

I don't buy all this long term benefits, the benefits will be aparent very quickly.

Hold one word, press 'select' and zoom the text out. Press copy then on Twitter app press the 'tweet' button, hit the text input box twice and press paste. You will find it's job done

I've always said that if you're willing to compromise on the single market (preferably for me EEA but EFTA will do) then I'll be willing to compromise a little with you guys. You go for hard Brexit, I go for hard Remain, it's only fair.

If we can get that out the way then I agree with you, common sense should prevail from there, which is maintaining close links with our European neighbours (what I want) whilst allowing the UK to create trade deals with the rest of the world (what you want).

Happy now?

James OB would benefit from this, hes been surprisingly quiet the past few days since Junckers speech the other day
