I was merely noting that the huge increases are not happening. I think, but I may be wrong, that you was one of those stating that this would happen. Apologies in advance if not. I'm sure you would agree that will be no noticeable price increases s is good, unless of course you would prefer massive increases to prove some sort of moral victory ? You are wrong. The dire consequences I talked about on here were if we had crashed out in March 2019 with No Deal, which was a very real prospect at the time. Thanks to "Democracy-denying Remoaners" it didn't happen. You are now resorting to saying "Yes, things are going to be worse for us all - but it won't be as bad as if we'd crashed out with No Deal!" as though that's some sort of victory. It's laughable.

We went through the weekly menu thing at start of lockdown. Cost me money as we went from ‘whoever’ paying to me paying every time. 😟 The food bill when we went out was precisely zero 😄 When's the next one pal ?

Why are you so convinced we would have just left without a deal if it wasn’t for the interference from certain elements? If that was the case and that was the plan all along then they could have just done that now? by virtue of not leaving without a deal now does that not tellyou that you’re off the Mark? obviously I’m not expecting a sensible response to my question.

Site Supporter Cheese Posted December 27, 2020 Site Supporter Share Posted December 27, 2020 If you thought the EU was overly-Bureaucratic while we were a member, you're going to hate dealing with it as a thrid country.

Scotland will be poorer as a consequence, it has been the best boost that independence movement could have had. Johnson treats the SNP with contempt in parliament and I’m not really surprised more Scottish people are now in favour. They’re are happy to take the money though, subsidised by Westminster right, left & centre Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But this legislation. What use would it have been on 31/12/20 if we hadn’t agreed a deal? We couldn’t have left “crashed out” without a deal then. Is this correct?

Site Supporter Tonge moor green jacket Posted December 27, 2020 Site Supporter Share Posted December 27, 2020 Gina Miller ensured that parliament had a say. Fair enough. All remainers then made it impossible for anything to be agreed in parliament. Including TMs deal. In turn it led to all sorts and a closer shave with no deal. If she/they had accepted what the government wanted to do at the time they may have got a closer relationship now. Cheers Gina! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The four Red Hand Grenade being about a fiver, available from most shops. The single DIPA mentioned costs 17.5 and can only be bought if you travel twelve miles and felch some hipster who refers to his shop as an 'emporium'. I'd love to set up a 'Pepsi Test' with some cheap craft from HB and some expensive elitist rubbish that costs about 10x the cost of the former.

Ani Posted December 27, 2020 Share Posted December 27, 2020 Just now, boltondiver said: She contributed greatly to a successful outcome, in my view I agree with you. Let’s take a moment and remember that we were talking about basically taking parliament out of the process to force a mish mash of a deal through. Our whole parliamentary process is based on openness and the ability of our elected representatives to challenge. Not all of us will ever agree with every decision but we have to honour the process. People who stood up for this were subject to vile abuse (one guy got sent to prison for it!). Paul Hanley loves throwing out accusations of democracy deniers but what was being forced through simply ignore the very blocks of our democracy. If it served any purpose people could back and pull out all the people on here who did it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Escobarp Posted December 27, 2020 Share Posted December 27, 2020 Let’s not forget. They did this because they had a remain majority parliament. So effectively they were steering the process towards a known outcome which suited there own aims at that time. This was nothing to do with democracy. Although I think your point is very valid. that all got ripped out when Boris won such a large majority. Why isn’t Miller lauding the new deal given it will be ratified by parliament as she wished? Do you think she will be applauding from the sidelines? Or mysteriously silent? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Farage knew the mood of the country , but was big enough to stand back and give Boris the large majority we needed to leave the club Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
