Thought Id start this one going because its rather dead on this board at the moment and I suppose all my usual muckers are either at the Stella tennis event watching Dim Tim (lose again) or at Henly Regatta eating cucumber sandwiches (they wish,...NOT).
Anyway please feel free to just talk to yourself blast away and let it go on any company or subject you wish. Just wish Id thought of this one before.
cheers GF.

According to Hans-Olaf Henkel the EU's 2 top Brexit chiefs Barnier and Verhofstadt want to punish Britain to stop other countries leaving.
Why on earth would they want to leave Utopia?

The lefties must be terrified..
Why Jacob Rees-Mogg for Tory leader is no laughing matter
Michael Segalov
Thursday 20 July 2017 14.09 BST
From being on Ali G to naming his kid Sixtus, the MP is seen to have a winning way. But Mogg-mentum must be stopped before it becomes a disastrous reality
It’s not entirely clear who is more surprised that Jacob Rees-Mogg is being touted as the next Tory leader – the British public, or the MP for North East Somerset himself. Rees-Mogg has made a name for himself by appearing on the Ali G Show, naming his children Sixtus Dominic Boniface and Anselm Charles Fitzwilliam, and using obscure words like floccinaucinihilipilification in the chamber – but talk of a leadership bid is anything but a joke.
More character assassination here:

(To all Remoaners, hot off the press from Brussels------Britain cannot now change it's mind.
The EU said of the Article 50 split legislation, ''Once triggered, it cannot be unilaterally reversed'')
---------------------
That's great news !!!!
Max Rees Mogg for PM would be great an intelligent man who also says it as it is .

jb----maybe not for everyone on here but certainly the majority of the UK.
As for JRM an excellent choice, as I posted just after the election result, however I still think TM should be permitted to continue, at least through the (now) irreversible Brexit process
Yeehaaa

I would vote for the anorexic Bunter to be the leader of the tory party.
Perfect choice for the party of yester-dayers.
Irrevocably so.
A perfect solution to all the little englanders' problems.

1. Except you don't vote
2. Brexit will open far more trading opportunities for ours and future generations
3.---
4. Say farewell to the shrinking EU and hello big wide world

i think JRM is a great guy with massive talent, but in today's media age i am sad to say he would not make a party leader, any more than would douglas-home

he really would put off an awful lot of voters .... his manner comes across as too patrician for most though his ability is undoubted
one could as justifiably say that boris would make a good party leader, except .....!!!!

The so called Brexit lot are so desperate for attention they seem to have abandoned their Ref. thread and are now polluting this one... mind you that's not difficult with the Tory Muppets also in place -):
Leave Europe?.. I very much doubt it.

I would vote for the Greyfriar's lot. Billy Bunter for party leader and the anorexia moggy for deputy. A deal made in heaven.
A perfect selection for a bright future.

What we are seeing is political theatre, much huffin and puffin whilst the real work is done behind the scenes.
We will end up paying a token (face saving) contribution to the €uro coffers for access. There is no other way when push come to shove, the €uro's have a lot more to lose.
What cannot be permitted is any type of control by the various €uro-organs, European courts etc. That way lies madness! (Fred and Stan type solutions)

HS2 'will be most expensive railway on Earth at £403m a mile!'
First 6.6 miles from Euston to Old Oak Common could cost more than £8bn.
