Thought I'd start a new thread as this is going to be a major talking point this year...have not made up my mind yet...(unlike bucksfizz)....but thinking of voting for an exit as Europe is not doing Britain any good at all it seems....

Oh dear, George. I've read that a Devon council are going to buy the Proper Cornish Pasty factory. Quel dommage!!!

Apparantly cornish pasties were given protected status by the EU - a bit like the AOC and AOP given to fine wines and cheeses. If you change your mind and decide to stay, the EU might be able to block the sale.

:o)

Now look here boyo whilst Donny's bit of a star he doesn't know everything...roll on that Informed referendum!

Meanwhile the hapless Maybe Maybe not is off for yet another away day to no apparent end.

Works both ways Hils. I heard Cornwall are going to start knocking out Champagne , Parmesan cheese and Frankfurters instead.

Stan,

"special place in hell looks like"

He should have a little look in No 10.

I have mixed feelings, for a start I don't believe councils should be using council tax payers money to invest in business, but I have absolutely no problem with any Cornish company being taken over by a company outside of Cornwall, however it appears you have.

That's part and parcel why we Leavers voted LEAVE, so we could trade with whoever.

On a far bigger scale it's like Dyson going to Singapore, it was mainly little European Remoaners who had a problem with that.

Why on earth would I wish to change my mind about leaving this particular club.

Where did I say exactly that the council were buying the business, George?

Now you're being pedantic.

I can understand Mr Tusk being frustrated that there was no plan for Brexit : There wasn't....Cameron gave us the referendum...did he have a plan in case the vote went for exit ?.....no ….a complete organised mess was his version of a referendum...and here we are in the s--t.....the trouble is the EU is one big crazy idea...if there was just France-Germany-Holland-Belgium-Netherlands-Luxembourg : it would work...but not 27 member states all in debt up to their eyebrows...just madness...no border controls or precious little...everybody can go to another country and set up residence....illegal immigration from the third world completely out of control....no ways of raising interest rates or dropping them....you are completely tied in to a European system whether you agree or not....it is just bonkers.....aren't our politicians wonderful ?….and they wonder why Britain chose leave !....and wait to see what it'll be like if Italy and Spain, Portugal or Greece default in repayments......it'll be hell all right but hopefully the UK might be a sort of Noah's Ark !....

Don't bank on the Noah's Ark bit rf

Might be for investors.....it's frustrating that this exit wasn't better sorted so you can in a way understand the pickle the EU chiefs are in....we should never...never have agreed to this set up in the first place....

Nor speak to those bloody neighbours.

RF Seems to be in the dark ages like most of the Outsiders.

Speaking would be construed as negotiations.

God forbid.

The current problem appears to be due to TM signing the agreement with the EU BEFORE agreeing the terms with parliament, and whilst I have a little (just a little) sympathy with the EU negotiating team, what happened to nothing is agreed until everything is agreed.

I think George displays some typical Tory Party voters traits in admitting just some of their Leaders incompetent decision making I.E. Cameron and May over Europe, meanwhile blaming others for “ their” own chronic and damaging decisions.

At the same time constantly voting for them no matter what..absolutely irresponsible. The epitome of the Little Englander.

You probably mean epitome Stan.

Apitamy------Lettris is a curious tetris-clone game where all the bricks have the same square shape but different content. Each square carries a letter. To make squares disappear and save space for other squares you have to assemble English words (left, right, up, down) from the falling squares.

There is no one else to vote for. All the other parties have bigger loonies in charge than the Tories so a lot of people voted for the best (by a country mile) of a bad bunch.

Was that said of Hitler in his final days?

Fred is that why the Labour Party ended up with JC, as bar John McDonnell the rest are a little less unbalanced.
