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....

The Brexit chickens are coming home to roost.

come on Fred after me ....

Please don't worry about a thing
Cos every little things gonna be alright ...

That was said by some in the 1930s.

Ending the game, using the safe word - Nazi.

Yeah Fred , the Labour Party and then a Conservative Prime Minister had to sort out the mess.

Germans are right peed off at the moment , not worth negotiating with them this week.

Dil

Theresa is doing well.

I understand the Con party's supposed leader is going to sort out the UK's Brexit problems in Brussels today.

Apparently can make a 2mins speech during the coffee break.

I do hope the bill for the negotiations can be sent to Tory Party's Central Office.

So I guess you will want the 8 billion a year savings sent there too ?

UK hasn't got any Brexit problems , we're leaving and the EU can come up with an acceptable deal if it wishes or if not we leave without one.

Peace in our time!

Which party's leader said that?

The PLO ?

Did I hear correctly yesterday that Macron is bringing back national service ?

Yes, I read a snippet about that too. Not sure how they will go about getting the snowflakes into uniform.

Brexit bad news!




BAE Systems lands £20bn deal to build ships for Australian navy

BAE Systems has won a £20bn contract to build frigates that will form the backbone of the Australian navy, beating off rival proposals from Italian and Spanish groups for the biggest naval defence deal of the past decade.

The contract win will see BAE supply nine vessels based on the Type 26 frigate design currently under construction for the Royal Navy.

Prime Minister Theresa May called the agreement an example of the kind of trade deals the UK can secure – especially with Commonwealth nations – as the country prepares for Brexit.

“We have always been clear that as we leave the EU we have an opportunity to build on our close relationships with allies like Australia," she said.

Bloomberg:

One EU PM Said to Find May’s Approach Alarming (5:11 p.m.)


An EU prime minister sitting around the summit table said he was alarmed by the tone of Theresa May’s words on Brexit, according to an official he briefed on the discussion. He left the meeting thinking that the risk of a “no deal” Brexit had increased from about 20 percent to nearly 50 percent, the official said, after May talked of the real possibility of the talks collapsing.

No comment.

The Irish border is still a major stumbling point.....even if there is no hard border, with the help of modern technology : a checking of goods criss-crossing the border must be installed...I mean this is the time to bring in within a time frame (a few years..)...a newly designed state of the art customs-check for the border....this could be exported to other countries worldwide.....sort of thing enabling an instant check of a lorry crossing the border ….something like that.....

I hope all have had their breakfasts.

Let's face it, she scares them all shitless with her adroite leadership, skilful and careful handling of the facts, full grasp of the situation, logic and analysis and above all, her strict adherence to democratic/constitutional procedures.

She's running rings around them!"

Barnier is probably responsible for this!
