After 3 years of humiliating her she must be pleased they've got a new target. The gullibility of those citizens of this country who actually applaud yet another cheap EU trick is frankly astonishing. Bettell reportedly had to plead with the imported British Pro-Remain mob not to leave and stay to applaud his pathetic panto act.

Reported by whom?
The Daily Express or The Sun?
Desperate.

He could have been discussing the merits of dwarf porn for all I know but I’m reasonably sure he did open his mouth at some point even if it was to offer Juncker a strong mint.

If one was to read my posts properly I have indicated quite strongly that Boris is a pillock, we cannot change this.

Rumour goes that he spent the entire 2 hours trying to top up Junckers glass, but he was drinking from the bottle via a straw;-)

"Xavier Bettel faced fury today after he 'stitched up' Boris Johnson by insisting on staging a press conference next to anti-Brexit protests.
The Luxembourg PM positioned the media call just yards from noisy demonstrations by ex-pats, and then went ahead despite Mr Johnson declining to take part.
Instead of agreeing to a British request for the event to be moved inside, Mr Bettel continued without him, leaving an empty podium.
In a brutal rant at the absent PM, Mr Bettel then said: 'The clock is ticking... We need more than just words.'
Mr Bettel - who apparently told protesters earlier that they were 'welcome' - gestured to the empty space where Mr Johnson should have been and said: 'It's his responsibility. Your people, our people, count on you - but the clock is ticking, use your time wisely.'
It was the second time in just two hours that Mr Johnson had been barracked by protesters, after he was jeered on the way out of lunch with EU commission president Jean-Claude Juncker elsewhere in Luxembourg.
Speaking to UK reporters separately after the full-frontal attack, Mr Johnson said he knew he would have been 'drowned out' if he took part in the press conference outside.
'I don't think it would've been fair to the prime minister of Luxembourg. I think there was clearly going to be a lot of noise,' he said. 'And I think our points might've been drowned out.'
No10 sources also took a swipe at Mr Bettel by suggesting he had deliberately tried to embarrass the PM, stating: 'We went to Luxembourg to see Juncker, not him.'
Even anti-No Deal rebels voiced dismay at the slight, with a former minister saying Mr Bettel had been 'rude' and would only 'inflame' Eurosceptic sentiment in the UK.
Earlier, he had underlined to Mr Juncker that he will not ask for a Brexit delay beyond the current departure date.

Well done for disproving your earlier post where you called them imported. You can always be relied upon to metaphorically shoot yourself in the foot in any discussion.
 
Fact remains Johnson bottled it and gave the opportunity for the humiliating prezzer - had Bettel had it in for him and had organised a protest to show Johnson up then he would surely have had a tub of lard ready and waiting to be substituted for the man child once he had stormed off.

The dynamic duo in tandem again tonight - if you bothered to read the thread you'd see the Press Preview on SkyNews reference - but I know that after a few beers it's a little too advanced for you to check their live youtube feed, so just keep posting it's all made up.

You made up they were imported.

It was a genuine question. Don’t be so hypersensitive. Are any newspapers or credible sources reporting it?

Just establishing a simple fact

Try answering the question I posed with a yes or no and all will become clear

@mcfc1632 I admit I might not have followed all of this one wherever it started but sometimes I feel that being right is more important to you than making sense.

The long and the short of my confusion on this one is I don’t understand what it is you gain out of what it is you seem to object to.

Is it a moral stand, which in itself I see merit in at times, when I understand what the moral you are standing for.

As I’ve said, there’s a good chance I’ve missed a chunk of this one and tbh I’m not going back to find out.
