Brexit, the economy and house prices (Part 3)

I said Eurocrats had again been wrong-footed!
Evidence?
Barnier being agreeable!
:rotfl:

In her speech in Florence, Prime Minister Theresa May has expressed a constructive spirit which is also the spirit of the European Union during this unique negotiation.
The speech shows a willingness to move forward ....

Just report it.

Seriously people, watch YT and see how the left are losing in the market place of ideas, it really is a spectacle

They cannot succeed in debate so they throw rocks, demand banning of free speech all over social media (whilst deeming all opponents as fascists), blow horns, sit in drum circles ( let's drum the hate away), shout using loud hailers and refuse to engage in adult debate

Honestly watch YT, type in things like 'SJWS vs logic'

Well weren't they?

No they are not ....and your assumption says a lot about you doesn't it! You basically lashed out at me and thought it would be clever to call me a racist without any foundation whatsoever. If I'd said a lot of kids these days are lazy......seriously is that racist. I don't think so. Now I think you should apologise!

You don't need to go that far; happenings on forums like this show the same sort of attitudes - as yesterday showed only too clearly.

Don't believe you.

So what race were they? If they were black or Asian that will actually make you even more special in my eyes.

Where in my post did I say it was an English characteristic? You are squirming like a worm on a pin and it's uneddifying!

Took three efforts to post a picture of Tebbit. Like I said go and troll elsewhere!

Eh?
Were we watching the same speech?

The only real difference from Lancaster House is the request for a maximum two year "implementation period"; a transition period if you will.
The Eurocrats have to agree to this first - and what do you think the chances of that are given their past performance?

The Eurocrats don't have to agree with anything. We will remain in the EEA automatically initially for a short period, the government will lose their majority at the next election and that position will remain permanently.

We have at no time formally requested to leave the EEA.

The UK has today formally requested to remain in the EEA. You may not be able to see it but that is how it is. I am extremely happy about that.

...she has also restated that a no-deal is better than a bad deal.
So what happens when the EU continue to bluster?
Who is going to be seen as being uncompromising?

No Brexit is better than a bad Brexit.
No Tory government is better than a bad Tory government.

The British government are uncompromising by requesting to leave the EU and then believing that there will be an unfair advantage in the way that it is delivered.

The EU has compromised time and time again over the last 40 years to satisfy the misguided beliefs of the UK with the British side showing no compromise at all.

As has been said already, buy a cake, eat the cake and see if you still have cake in front of you. Unless you're at my mothers house, it's very unlikely.

Think that most people are now tired of Brexit. Time to think and move forwards.

I agree, which is the perfect excuse to remain in the European Union by stopping the process now, as is in the best interests of the UK.

Lets's start with the Common Agricultural Policy then where some member states simply refuse to budge.........

There is no compromise when National interests come first.

Excellent news. Should result in yet more tourist visits to the UK. In the year to July visitor numbers are up 4%. With a related increase in spend. Tourism being a major contributor to the UK's economy.

Yes excellent news. It's cheap for tourists. If we devalue the pound even more it will be even cheaper. Hooray for tourism!

"And to your left, ladies and gentlemen, is the City of London, once upon a time a major player in the world of finance. This concludes our tour for today. Tomorrow we'll visit a disused car assembly plant in Swindon. Don't forget to tip the driver, Euros preferred."

What a mess.
