So what’s the current score?

Boris likely to get his deal through Parliament?
"Deal"?

LOL


Betting on the extension seems to favour a new Brexit date of end of June although we may do it two stages.

So how are people planning to spend next ‘Not Brexit’ day of 31st October? Do we see this becoming an annual or bi-annual event? Should we make it a public holiday?
I'm going to celebrate by staying in, again.

I have no faith in our politicians sorting it out. A referendum might do.

Sooner or later, they have to or the EU will. They can't go on like this forever.

The UK is still in the early circles of Inferno, I fear, and that is a ‘red line’, if you will, that the EU will be loathe to cross.
 
It comes to something when Mary Lou McDonald, the leader of Sinn Fein talks more sense on LBC about Brexit than any other British MP I have heard.

Very measured and true to her beliefs.

If it were not for Sinn Fein's historic position on fealty to the crown, she would make a might fine Prime Minister.
 
We have a couple from Belgium who live in the village... and no Im not saying that 'young British citizens leaving rural areas is a migrant problem in our cities?' Im saying that there is a definite move towards living in cities by the young (there's nothing for them here ... they've even cancelled our bus service now) and this increases population. Its not all caused by (Im)migration... just a trend

The "They" who cancelled your bus service is the Tories (no matter who controls the Council).

But surely there's plenty of work for young Brits in rural areas picking crops and in packing....

I f*cking know who cancelled the bus services (b'stards) we had a struggle a couple of years ago as we have a development of retirement properties in the village ... we managed to retain the bus service on Thursdays (as this is market day in the local town) we got them to put a bus on in the morning at 8.30am and back again at 4.30pm. We even managed to get the driver to drop off prescriptions at the Health Centre and pick them up on the way back.

But because its pensioners they don't make any money .... so now they've cancelled that as well ....


We're not that sort of farming ... its all peas , wheat, sugar beet ... all done by one/two men and a big machine... the farmers don't even own a combine harvester any more, they hire someone in
 
All the trigger words deployed there, pity I thought we were trying to conduct this debate rationally. The facts are clear enough - just watch the actual footage in the BBC documentary 58' in. From the moment May was installed as PM instead of a leaver, the Tory remain majority were in charge. Successive Brexit Secretaries were undermined as they tried to recover a serious negotiating position. May's red lines were purely decorative, the EU's objectives of an upfront divorce settlement and no trade talks until after we left were never challenged and our agreement to the indefinite Irish Protocol provisions made the WA unpassable in the HoC. The ERG undeniably played a major part in this fiasco as it dragged on and on but they were actually empowered by the remainer camp's tactics.
I get to the point where even cursory responses to the 'usual suspects' is too much time to waste on their drivel

That post you are replying to is a good example of their need for denial - they are long past the point when they express any capability to assess and analyse - so debate is impossible. They just want the thread(s) to be echo chamber for themselves.

Anyway - for those on here not blinded by self-imposed ignorance - from an eye witness:

A deluded eye-witness:

"The freedom to liberalise trade and open our economy up to new markets, serving as an open and competitive counterweight to the politics of Donald Trump and China, and forging for Britain a role as a global beacon of free enterprise and achievement."

Potty.
 
Away from the brexit debate, how do things like this actually happen. It says they are 100 staff short because of lack of EU migrants.

Are there not 100 local unemployed people?
Why haven't they done it?
I know it's a seasonal job so not ideal but if I were local to there and unemployed, I'd be banging the door down to take over the migrant's jobs.
 
Polling expert and political scientist Sir John Curtice explained Boris Johnson's Brexit strategy focusses on swaying voters from the Brexit Party and capitalising on a split Remainer vote. During an interview with Express.co.uk, Sir John explained by taking votes away from the Labour Party, Jo Swinson is handing Boris Johnson a Brexit gift. With the Remain vote split, this could result in the Tory Party winning more seats which would better allow him to pass a Brexit deal through Parliament.

I'd assume there are multiple reasons - poor pay - as you say seasonal - often comes with accommodation which locals don't need, they'd like the money instead ta as they travel to and from work and have to pay for that - maybe there aren't 100 unemployed nearby - the countryside can be pretty empty these days ( see other contribs to the thread )
