Not even for this Brexit bollocks, just because he's a massive cunt I was being flippant toward the "Curdish" one. Having said that I don't want Farage assassinated. A refreshing kick up mainstream politics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MalcolmW Posted February 3, 2019 Share Posted February 3, 2019 Loose bananas in Waitrose were £83 per kg yesterday. Either they were getting ready for No Deal or someone had put the decimal place in the wrong place when setting the day's prices. After two customers complained at checkout they removed the loose ones, leaving only correctly priced pre-packs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once we leave the EU we wouldn’t have to tender this type of thing through the EU, our government could choose to purchase UK made vehicles.

What British made vehicles would those be then out of interest ? Also, the Government doesn't actually have to put out a tender for this. It does so to get the best deal. it could just buy 10000 Sherpa Vans if it wanted (if they still make them).

Only problem being is the fact that as it is technically made by Opel many of the parts for it will come from Europe. Probably important bits like the Engine, Wheels and steering Wheel.

Guest Posted February 3, 2019 Share Posted February 3, 2019 (edited) Daniel Hannan: The EU is taking the hardest possible line in the hope of derailing Brexit It’s not as if anyone is still seriously pretending that the absence of a backstop will mean checkpoints and border posts. The Irish government has confirmed that, if there is no deal, it will not raise any frontier infrastructure. The British government has said the same from the beginning. Last month, Mr Barnier revealed that, in a no deal scenario, any necessary checks would be carried out away from the border. In other words, the whole bogus row has been got up over a border that no one is going to install anyway. This point is not yet widely understood in Europe, where the backstop is vaguely but forcefully presented in most media as being there to “ensure peace”. But, as the deadline looms, several Continental MPs are asking the same question as Mr Seif. Why, when Britain has caved in to every other EU demand, carry on insisting on the one thing that Parliament can’t accept? It might sound irrational, but look at it from the point of view of the European Commission. Whatever the economic costs of Brexit, they will not be borne by Eurocrats, whose tax-free salaries and expenses will remain unaffected. Indeed, if no deal leads to the EU imposing tariffs on UK exports, the Commission will get extra revenue from them. I can already hear the Europhile sneering. For some British people, everything must always be the fault of Brexiteers. They will not hear any criticism of Brussels, however peevish, illogical or dishonest its stance. Point out that the EU is being less than reasonable and they come back with “Oh, blaming someone else, are you?” Damn right I’m blaming someone else. In part, I’m blaming a remote, self-serving caste of officials with little interest in the welfare of the citizens they notionally serve. But, far more seriously, I’m blaming those British Europhiles who have encouraged the EU to take the hardest possible line in the hope of derailing Brexit. – Daniel Hannan MEP Edited February 3, 2019 by boltondiver Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Far more made of it than necessary; of course there's a situation that needs working on, but men were sent to the moon using less computing power than a pocket calculator.
