Another new Brexit thread

What? - do you need me to tell you that Truss is an over-promoted idiot?

Do you need me to say that there is no way that the deal she has done with Japan is absolutely no better than the one we had via the EU?

I thought you understood these things far better

(BTW Thornberry is also a bag of wind - IMO)
It’s a bit of a worry isn’t it that we’re relying on someone like her to help us make a success of Brexit

Nice of you to almost answer one of my questions though as I asked you for comments twice last week about the resignations of Cummings and Cain and what you thought it might mean for the impending Brexit deal. Seems you were more concerned with getting into spats with people and sucking up to the cheese monger than actually applying your intellect to the issues

Hey - TBF - I can deal with all the genuine debates and would much prefer to operate at that level - and also TBF I do remember you asking

But I can also drop down to the gutter level if that is where other posters are at (not you)

And to come back on after 2 weeks away and find some posters are still making gratuitous cheap and snide posts - even with me not actually on the thread - made me more interested in operating at their level rather than answering your worthwhile requests

Perhaps - like other posters - you ought to seek to police them and ask them to stop the crap they post?
 
Ha, if you really want to spend your Friday evening doing that, then please be my guest! I just thought this little Brexiteer bromance was quite endearing really ;)
Endearing?
Fair enough!
Personally, from my own point of view, Friday night, drink involved, should be in a music thread somewhere, could be wrong, still interested, sort of, but....,

This thread has gone to shit.

Roll on 1st of January.
Roslare preparing for circumventing the Britain land bridge with direct cargo to Dunkirk from 2nd of January.

Let’s just get on with it.
 
Hey - I was just holding a mirror up to someone who clearly needs seeks to score stupid pedantry points on grammar on a football forum

But - TBF - he does often remind me of Emma - who was the trusted Grade 7

God she did drone on..........
What? About having to correct your bad grammar?

It's not pedantry. Using "I" after a preposition is just wrong. Pulling someone up for saying "Did you used to work for the HO?" might be seen as pedantic.

This thread went to shit a long, long time ago.
P.S. I wasn’t really being serious when I said it was endearing.
 
Shall I post some examples - it would be so easy to do?

Don't need to go back far - check out Dids and Dids buddying up earlier.

I could point out very many - would it be helpful to show that it is far more frequent to see 'buddying up' comes from the Remainer side?
Hey, just to be clear, despite our similar user names. I don’t know West Dids Blue from Adam. I suspect we just share some common ground in that bit of your personality that decides who you think is a massive clown.

That is a devastating put down - If only I could find the words to express how much I care about changing your opinion of me

Nah - I had a few beers instead, but I am surprised that you do not notice the way the cadre of regular Remainers act as a sort of inner circle. It is as if they see the thread as their domain, which - given their success in getting so many Leavers to give up on the thread - is perhaps unsurprising.

Anyway - I make no apologies for expressing some admiration for the way @Mazzarelli's Swiss Cheese handles some of the 'contributions' from Remainers on here - as just one example:
....... putting aside your thoughts on the ''scroungers'' and '' immigrants'' who you think have bought this country to its knees but not thinking about the wealthiest 10% who've managed to avoid paying their fare share of tax for the last 10 years. Sleep well knowing that theres 1000's sleeping rough (despite how cold it gets) but hey ? you're ok So you continue to vote for the political party that hurts the people you hate .... the unemployed, the disabled , the single parents, the gays

tomorrow is another day .... but as long as you're ok thats all that matters to you.
Why that was aimed at any Leavers on here is a mystery to me - but I would have expected that you would have also admired the calm way MSC addressed that post.

So yeah - I felt OK about expressing admiration

Anyway - back on topic..........

I am surprised this news was not discussed on here:
UK PM names new chief of staff: former banker and adviser Rosenfield | Reuters
Worked closely with George Osborne - a Remain supporter and worse - a red

What does this suggest for the last weeks of Brexit negotiations? For someone that has been worried about Johnson's 'resolve' and character it is perhaps a worrying sign

You’ve got a choice which “level” you operate at and when you choose to are one of the few Brexit advocates who will actually discuss and rationalise the issues rather than resort to snide and stupid remarks. I’m not interested in “policing” the thread, that’s what I believe the mods are for though it’s obviously a thankless

Are you really surprised that news wasn’t discussed on here? It had passed me by but does it not develop the themes I’ve asked you to address, themes you have now acknowledged but choose not to address, preferring to “drop down to the gutter “. For a seemingly intelligent man...

So, adding that to the resignations of Cummings and Cain, where do you think the negotiations are headed?
