Political relations between UK-EU

[mcfc1632]

Mate got an import duty bill for £107 earlier for a jacket. It will be a gradual build up of those little frustrations that see us going back begging for more and more of what we had.

Wow

If only Leave voters had known that could happen......

Your mate sounds like he has expensive tastes;-)

I would guess though - rather than us going back and begging - we will just get more informed and careful in our shopping habits

How so, are you saying pointing out a generalisation isn’t true for everyone is the same as pointing out a generalisation...?

No, i'm saying the hyperbolic narrative of doom isn't helpful to debate, if your position is supposedly one of not adding more bollocks to it, especially when there is nothing to warrant such opinion.

Ah. I was essentially making the same point then, given I agree it isn’t helpful to debate in generalisations too, be it a narrative of doom or rosy gardens.

The good news just keeps rolling in...

Knock yourself out.

Let’s see what has happened in the world recently

World pandemic many deaths life currently shit and unknown future
Brexit(you may have heard of that one)
The shenanigans of the quite barking Donald Trump
City being poor
City getting better
The passing of the great Colin Bell
The state of our enviroment
Racism rife
jesy leaving Little Mix
And let’s face it a whole lot more

Your last 300 posts 276 of them have been about Brexit, of those remaining posts many were you bringing Brexit into that thread. In your defence the one post out of the whole 300 about footy you might not have done(I didn’t read it)

Now if that is not an obsession I don’t know what is fella.

We all know the answer to this

I am Bob I’m a remainerholic I haven’t been in the brexit thread for 1 day.

You can do it mate, and to help from this day forth I shall agree with your views whenever you slip.

I urge the few leavers left to do the same and I will start

Bob was right Brexit is shit what the fuck have we done?

I can’t believe I wasted 24 posts...

This is of course just desperately wishful thinking - IMO - likely borne out of frustration that 'all of a sudden - nothing happened'

After years of promising an apocalypse, I can understand that it must be very frustrating that the vast majority of the population are not hearing or thinking about 'shitshow' outcomes from Brexit and it is quickly receding into the 'so what' category.

The point was ..... we are only 3 days into Brexit proper.... where are the sunny uplands?.... Does Johnson know which NHS Bank Account to pay the £350 million into?

 

[Ifwecouldjust.......]

I would have preferred Merkel’s approach, cool, but polite. Not dissimilar to her approach to Johnson come to think of it.

But, no we had to rush over there, taking the knee and gushing at how wonderful Trump was and how great he would be for Brexit Britain. Gove slobbered over him, Rees-Mogg ditto. Johnson wouldn’t even back our own Ambassador over Trump. Pathetic doesn’t even cover it. They wanted to bask in his reflected ‘glory’ and Trump’s ‘lie big, lie often’ approach was a natural fit for Johnson. As was Trump’s incompetence.

We have to be honest .... they fawned over Trump because he makes Johnson look good. However in 14 days time , the UK will officially have the worse leader and the worse government in the Western World.

This is probably not a good thing but hardly relevant when you hear the FTSE might hit record highs this year...

Hopefully some common sense will prevail.

Just a gentle reminder that the ''Stock Exchange'' is not the ''Economy''

The FTSE 100 is also considered a good indicator of the health of the UK and international economy (because it comprises both domestic and international companies).
