Political relations between UK-EU

[Octavian]

You see this is why you wont get a reasonable chat with anyone.
You are beginning to sound extremely like my old chum @Banjani
These two posts could have been written by him
He was very keen to quote NatWest as the showstopper based on personal knowledge :-)

That’s the 3rd person I’ve been accused of being in 24 hours, I wonder if only one opinion is expected and nothing else is tolerated.

unless you think Brexit is a total disaster you’re thick but posting Twitter crap and saying we’re fucked is enlightened.

None of my questions asked were unreasonable on Scotland were they?

In relation to your other post:

I’ve quoted statistics and a recent article on the economy from the Financial Times.

Yet others have just given abuse, why don’t you pull them up?

I haven’t said a single thing to you that’s insulting, accusatory or ill mannered, I just expect the same back… other than the collective tossers point but that was justified, since then I’ve been polite to you.

Another oddity - turns out taking back control of our borders actually meant sub contracting it to the French and paying them to do it

Its weird way they all want to come this way you'd think European union wasn't the place to be in.

Of course he was right you booby. Its common knowledge. So what? Do you think they will close the accounts of all their Scottish customers? Why do you think that its in the slightest bit material to a vote on independence. OMG Nat West are leaving. Really?

I was only mildly interested in your post as its exactly the same argument as he used to use. Its as weak now as it was then.

 

[Saddleworth2]

Full of rude tossers on this page isn’t it.

your weird mates jumped on that

it’s just this page where you’re all frothing at the mouth.

Fuck me, another insufferable rude get.

You’re not a serious individual, you can’t be.

This is childish.

You don’t care how I voted yet are ranting at me?

Cheers, if you can translate that over to Didsbury, that will be appreciated

Think everyone needs to calm down.

I don’t understand why everyone is so angry.

You’re a bunch of bullies who cannot take a differing opinion.

The last few pages are littered with comments like “we’re absolutely fucked”, that’s what people need to relax about.

I’ve read some shit in my time but this takes the biscuit.

For someone that wants calm debate with others you have an extremely strange posting style.

England gives them a favourable grace period

Do you realise how fucking arrogant that statement is?

They manage to offload all their debt to London

What debt is that exactly? Do you know what, don't bother to answer that question because it will be your normal half understood nonsense.

I'm done.

Imagine if a brexiteer said similar about finance leaving London. “OMG they’re leaving. Really?”

Of course they will keep their customer base, who wouldn’t? What will be interesting is who follows NatWest.

When I was working up there prior to the last Braveheart vote 90% of the ones with any money or sense were moving to England or at least their money was if Jimmy Krankie's mob were victorious, so their Scots customers accounts may well be here before the Nat West.

Look at the posts that was in response to and tell me it wasn’t justified?

Giving it back to bullies is fine, I didn’t start it, I’ve just finished it.

It’s true, if Scotland wants to leave the UK, then they will have to negotiate a grace period, England can tell them to do one if it wishes and not allow a grace period from leaving the UK to joining the EU.

Don’t get your arse up about reality.

The portion of the UK debt they’ll need to take with them, the debt Scotland currently holds and its deficit.

There was an account that popped up a few months back called 'Windrush 48' and disappeared within weeks. Exactly the same devil's advocate posting style. Throw out some bait knowing full well what the response would be and then act the victim.
There were early indications in the Biden/Afghanistan threads that he has been here before.

I’m going to leave you boys to it, seems there’s a weird clique on this sub forum

You gave no facts pal, have a nice evening, won’t be bothered with this sub forum again, I was warned!

Warned by who?

Ok imagine - you have family in Germany and you ant to make a new start with them. You set off to make this happen and the Germans say - hang on you came through France thats a safe country and the French say - fuq vous m'sieu allez back to Blighty - you have spent years telling us thats the place to be.............

What bait have I thrown out?

I was spot on in the Biden thread as well and others agreed with me.

What I’ve found is the majority on here all have the same ideas and anything other than that then you’re either a troll, someone else who used to post, posting “in bad faith” as I’ve heard or thick.

It’s really not a nice place, which is a shame as the normal off topic and the other football pages are good.

I got chatting in PMs with another poster about a mutual interest and he said the forum is good apart from the sub forum, not much more than that.

 

[Octavian]

yeah. V suspect.

2 posts I made that made other people act like white blood cells to a foreign invader.

First one I said the economy was actually not doing too badly.

Second I said the leave campaign lied and the debate should have been the powers returned to London at the expense of the economy, if they were being truthful.

How is that “suspect” or “bait”?

 

[Postman Pep]

yeah. V suspect.

Doubt it's BJ there is no way he could discuss Scottish independence without drawing parallels between the middle letter in SNP and BNP :)

NatWest is a really shit example. It’s an English bank that merged with RBS in 2000 and became a subsidiary of RBS Group until the holding company name was changed to NatWest Group earlier this year. In the event of Scottish independence it’s more than likely RBS will be spun off from NWG and will stay in Scotland whilst NWG will move to England where 95% of its remaining business operates. The location of the holding company head office is really not a huge deal from an employment perspective, and the fact that it is 80% government owned will force it to stay in the U.K.

There will also be no shortage of companies based in England whose main business is exporting to the EU that will move operations north of the border for easier access to their main market. Much easier for them to move to another English speaking country than relocating to the continent.

Read the article rather than offer your own opinion.

I have absolutely no idea how you can say the 2nd paragraph without knowing or considering the transition period there would be, or if there even would be one.

Banjani, fucking hell. I liked him and tolerated his mouthy naive teenager style. I realised he was clueless when he said The Telegraph was not a right wing paper but a neutral one.

last conversation I remember was on the Covid thread about 12 months ago when I said that covid was going to last for years not months and he thought that was hilarious. “Don’t go too hard on him, he’s probably having a bad day” he guffawed patronisingly about my comment. I still remember thinking “You’re a very silly yet cocksure young boy” at the time.

Point to one post where I’ve “defended Brexit to the hilt”.

A sentence will do from the last week.

They kicked the checks from then end of this month down the road again - wonder why that would be? Yep coz its gonna be as fucking bad as predicted or possibly worse - you keep on deluding yourself or understanding the consequences and trolling until the shit hits the fan - we have your number
