How do we resolve the Brexit mess?

He is so out of touch with the electorate “Boris is a charismatic leader” as if that is all that matters, he wants the parties and goody bags back we are not as uneducated as he think’s we’ve had enough of Boris and his mates.

I’d like to think you’re right, but if the Conservatives lose the next General Election yet he somehow holds Uxbridge and South Ruislip, he’ll be challenging to be the leader.

It's like they are just going through the motions and waiting to lose the election so they can then say 'we should never have got rid of Boris'. I wonder what he thinks of Liz?

But he is right - they can't be a serious party and have another change of PM.

I’m struggling to get my head around this. It seems like Northern Ireland is in a better position than the GB. If this is the case, how have we got to this position?

It has been in a better position. It looks like growth in NI is what has kept the UK out of an official recession.

No. You'd need to be naturalised and you're fucked there.
15.—Upon receipt of an application for a certificate of naturalisation, the Minister may, in his absolute discretion, grant the application, if satisfied that the applicant complies with the following conditions (in this Act referred to as conditions for naturalisation):

(a) he is of full age;

(b) he is of good character;

(c) he has (in the case of application made after the expiration of one year from the passing of this Act) given notice of his intention to make the application at least one year prior to the date of his application;

(d) he has had a period of one year's continuous residence in the State immediately before the date of his application and, during the eight years immediately preceding that period, has had a total residence in the State amounting to four years;

(e) he intends in good faith to continue to reside in the State after naturalisation;

(f) he has made, either before a Justice of the District Court in open court or in such manner as the Minister, for special reasons, allows, a declaration in the prescribed manner, of fidelity to the nation and loyalty to the State.

Might be whistling a different tune if the Conservatives take a walloping at the polls on May 4th. Suspect they will but that the Coronation that weekend might enable the scale of things to slide under the radar.

How the fuck has Roy Keane kept his?
 
Hang on a minute, have I just heard right; Sunak when speaking to Coca Cola employees in NI today has said the following:

Northern Ireland is in the unbelievably special position, the unique position in the entire world in having privileged access not just to the UK home market, which is the fifth biggest in the world, but also the European Union single market.

“Nobody else has that. No one – only you guys only here. And that is the prize. I can tell you, when I go around the world and talk to businesses, they say: ‘That’s interesting.’ Nowhere else does that exist. It’s like the world’s most exciting economic zone.”

Whilst the rest of the UK are fucked by leaving the EU, Sunak is praising the benefits of being able to access the EU single market. WTAF???

what he actually meant was that he had successfully restored NI to most of what it had pre Brexit but we can't have it - these are the people he was trying to impress

There is a time limit, 3 years married plus 3 years living on the island of Ireland

I know, I saw it too. He campaigned for Brexit. In other words it's a shit show and he admitted it.

Might have been more pertinent had the interviewer asked ‘Did anybody here go to school?’, as opposed to ‘Did anybody here vote Remain?’

I am sure he was more than happy for the Govt to get the Queen involved in a proroguement of Parliament which they knew was illegal

Unlike the Queen I think Charles would involve himself in matters he is concerned about, he does have the power and once before a letter he wrote to parliament was revealed, written by Charles.

They do let there views be known as the Queen did over the Scotland referendum, but I can’t imagine how they could of stopped them wrecking the economy a party the country voted for.
Only show them up for the charlatans they are

Not sure it'll make any difference to the leadership, but there will be more pressure to increase the vandalism and get the insane EU law burning through.
