Did you know we are not allowed to do any new trade agreement whilst in the eu? Once left we can agree a deal that suit both countries better!!

Regarding the 350m you guys seem obsessed with, answer me these 3 simple question terms


Layman terms
Question 1
how much do we pay the EU as a member net per month? Google it if you don't know

Question 2
If we are not a member do you expect the UK to still pay for this membership? Yes or no answer would be sufficient!


Question 3
So if you answered no to question 2,what potentially happens to that monthly fee? Trusting the monkeys in Parliament to spend it wisely is another matter!

If you answered yes to 3, remind me who the the real thickos are?

There is no continuity of trade with a no deal exit. Thats kind of the point.

The lie is not about what we pay net into the EU per month. The trade benefits of EU membership are impossible to quantify and will only be truly appreciated once we have left the EU, if we ever get around to it.

The lie which dragged in a bunch of morons is that the entire saving (if it could even be quantified) would be automatically spent on the NHS, 100%. Such a simplistic and transparent lie but the brexit loving masses fell for it as they always do.

As Churchill once said:

"A lie gets halfway around the world before the truth puts on its boots".

But dont believe me on this enormous and misleading lie, listen to Nigel:

BTW answering "yes" to the question "what happens to the monthly fee" is not too sound grammatically.

Oh yes, Sovereignty.

More power for our parliament. How is that working out?

On the flip side you have Dominic Raab threatening to prorogue parliament to force through no deal.

That would be the biggest attack on parliamentary democracy and sovereignty for hundreds of years.

I know.....kind of exciting.

We might even get a punch up in parliament with any luck.

I'm backing the beast of bolsover to get a few digs in....even at his age.

Is it really necessary to be so insulting. You are a clever person and have a point of view that is to be respected. Just because people don't agree with you we are not all morons.

By the way the Tories have increased spending on the NHS by £350 million per week and this was a promise from SOME, not all, of the Brexit politicians and not the government which if memory serves me correct was pro Remain and never made that committment.

These are extreme times and if a prorogue is the mechanism to extract us from the clutches of parliament then so be it.

Might want to stick to Trump and Israel, Jimenez.

Norway is part of the EEA and therefore has access to the EU single market.

If we crash out of the EU on Oct 31st, the UK will certainly not be a part of the EEA and will certainly not have access to the single market.

Leaving the single market was what people voted for.

Nice try, but you might want to check these things out a bit before you post them.

It blows my mind (and scares the sh*t out me) how unaware of the basics so many hard line Brexiteers are.

For Maine absolutely, here clearly shows he stopped developing emotionally at very early age.

Clever he maybe - intelligent leave it to the public...

Yes, everyone who disagrees with him are morons - see first paragraph.

Good point about the CBI. The media treat them as the sole spokespeople for all business. In fact the CBI is nothing more than a big business pressure group. They deserve to be listened to but then so do the thousands of medium and small businesses.

Correct which is why I don't agree with proroguing parliament.

I don't think it will happen but if it did it just lets Parliament off the hook on making a decision which is what I want them to do.

Not saying everyone who voted for Brexit is a moron, just that everyone that believed what was written on that bus was.

Agreed.

The whole point of Brexit was to "take back control!".

That means the UK parliament, not Nigel Farage/every man in the pub, sadly.

The continuing ironies of brexit.

I would hope the Queen would reply with "no way, bitches" if she was asked.

He is really....really really not right.

The Republic of Ireland is in the EU. If Northern Ireland is not in the EU, there must be a hard border with checks etc otherwise trade and commerce cannot function.

If Northern Ireland stays closely aligned to the Republic of Ireland in terms of trade etc then the border is moved into the sea between England and Ireland. This is called the backstop.

That is very much an issue for the UK government isn't it, because it threatens the Union and creates a border between England and Northern Ireland.

"They keep talking about terrorism when its about trade". Its about both.

Must be fake news/project fear when multiple former MI5 officers and NI police come out and state it could have devastating results to the peace process.

"Most check can be carried remotely maybe some things slide but then they do today."

?????

Is he talking about border checks? Is this the mythical "alternative arrangement" that is so mythical and magical that no one can actually say what it is/what technology it requires?


I've smuggled enough fireworks over that border to know it's impossible to control. Local border area farmers have said that they'll allow people through their land to avoid the check points.

Let's just say you have two customs officers on every crossing. That's 1000 customs officers. A customs officer is not going to into these areas without the Police so that's about another 1000 people needed.

Most people voted to stop 'freedom of movement' for obvious reasons.

The parliamentary question is there but its secondary because....a good number of the politicians are corrupt and only interested in the gravy when it comes to Europe.....and those that aren't but pro EU aren't interested in keeping parliamentary primacy anyway.
