Well, it will if this deal passes

Yep. Scotland will definitely be telling Boris where to stick his deal. NI will be left high and dry. Wales will come to its senses when reality hits home. But it'll be great for the union otherwise.

Came across very badly. 
 

Although his answer about number of black and Asian MEPs made the guy in audience look daft.

This is the thing. If we want a free trade deal with the EU then we dance to their tune. This is something Brexiters fail to understand. The major economies of Europe don't pay into the EU for shits and giggles, why we thing we can have our cake and eat it is beyond me.

All this crap about Boris playing a game and he really wants no deal is bollocks. He wants to stay as PM as long as possible, that is all but even he knows a no deal Brexit will end him.

We will get no better trade deals, with other countries, than the EU can/have negotiated as they have proved themselves to be far more skilled at this over the last 3.5 years than the UK and have run rings round us.  We will have to shape up if we are going to get these stupendous trade deals we have been promised by the Leave campaign so we need to seriously consider strengthening our negotiating team and the refining our strategy.

Hope that the cunts in the HoC get this through - only to end this fucking stalemate -  but suspect they will be as cuntish as ever.

Not really that bothered if they act as I expect. I'd like to see Nigel and his mob do well at a GE; Labour get fucking slaughtered etc.

If the deal goes through, would there be any further need for a TBP?

So I send something - lets say a boiler - to Belfast, and get charged a tariff of £50.

You're saying that I get my £50 back so long as it stays there?

When do I get that?

You probably won't be paying anything. Its usually the importer who pays the tariff

I see that various papers are reporting that government figures predicted that a deal on these terms would reduce GDP by 6.7%, or £130bn, over the next 15 years. That compares to a 2.1% reduction under May’s deal. No wonder Javid doesn’t want to provide an impact assessment before the vote tomorrow.

Brexit has always been about making us poorer and weakening the union. 

That has been the result. Those supporting it are in effect voting for that.

But its at the point where its so bad, so so bad that our best chance is sending NI into the sea, leaving Scotland likely to join them and losing the small matter of £130bn and everyone being a few grand worse off. That is better than a no deal alternative. 

Crazy times. The bleakest in British political history.

A weakening economy happens every time we vote in a labour government, if the country votes for something (even as stupid as the Labour Party) then it should happen, it’s called democracy.

Not really. Knowing the truth is depressing.  But history shows that right wing populism rears it’s head every now and again but never prevails for too long.

We will be back to sensible, progressive centre ground politics within the next decade. Mark my words.

Jesus

read  the thread

i was talking about ME setting up an agency in NI to get round my customer paying the tariffs.

The inference being that it’s a simple way round these ‘stringent’ Irish Sea border checks.

I didn’t realise I had to do every post as a pop up version 😳

To be fair even a broken clock is right twice a day. You spout that much sanctimonious know it all bollocks something has to be correct at some point. Law of probability

Right-wing populism, or national populism, is a political ideology which combines right-wing politics and populist rhetoric and themes. The rhetoric often consists of anti-elitist sentiments, opposition to the perceived Establishment, and speaking to the "common people".

Brexit. In its entirety.

We already know that, part of this great new deal that Boris is talking about actually states that we cannot have/negotiate more favourable terms than the EU already has (level playing field)  - fishing is a bit fucked as well I think.

 

Sadly it means Farage is going to be around for many more years yet

Most of the projections (yes, I know) have Johnson losing by between 3 and 6 votes

that's still pretty tight, only needs one or two to sway  -  I'm really not sure what happens if it doesn't pass. Do we leave with no deal, do we get an extension, do we stay? - what happens to Moon Boys Good Ship Brexit?

Anybody who attempts to answer that is just guessing.

I think we are back into the mire of delays, second referendum etc
