EU forces within both main parties didn't give us another vote on the EU for forty years.

If they were fair in doing that then you have another 38 years to go.

What do all these so-called deals, draft agreements, forward relationship drafts etc. actually mean.

The UK trying to limit the damage.

Whether they actually come to mean anything who knows.

The only important news about Brexit is that the Brexit resistance (Croydon branch) has voted to fly the EU flag from my headquarters on 19th March next.

Lol I remember a comedy show where the guy is in a row boat which is slowly sinking and he salutes the flag as he goes down.

Yes I know that can be applied to both sides. Still Steeleye as you will be the last one leaving the EU please remember to turn the lights out.

'The political declaration is a separate, far shorter document, setting out broad aspirations for the kind of relationship the UK and the EU will have after Brexit, and is not legally-binding. Some of the wording of it is non-committal and allows both sides to keep their options open'.

So basically it is the usual fudge, probably just a load of cobblers.

According to Ken Clarke the issues that will effect us, and our kids futures, not that the gammon care as they just want to leave, come later in the negotiations after 19th March.

I have seen this "Gammon” term increasingly regularly could someone please explain it (I get the impression it's from a tv series i don't watch, because I have no idea)

It's the UK version of 'redneck'.....the reddening of the skin.

It's an insult aimed at the white right wing working class.

Its use largely limited to unimaginative self-loathing c*nts who actually match the description of the very people they're maligning.

Extended generally to mean anyone who voted to leave the EU.

Gammon refers to colour....the reddening of the skin.....I suppose it's less about the class aspect and more about being the opposite of the baizuo.

The leaked 'political agreement' is now available, and there will be no 'friction-less trade' with the EU.

Years of negotiation resulting in us being far worse off than we are now.

I think Becky is closest to the generally received definition of "gammon"

[Link]

though probably intended as an insult, it has the merit of being almost literally descriptive of those intended

Bye bye EU.

However it's done tis better than staying with those lefty neo liberal, corporate, anti American, anti democratic authoritarians.

I think your previous comments were more valid. Whoever put this document together was dining on waffles and fudge. No doubt each country will take from it what they want.

We White 'middle class' aging men obviously need our own 'Kick it out' organisation exclusively for that demographic.
Every so often, one of our number can go on TV and complain about the daily abuse we suffer at work and online at the hands of minorities and left wing and liberal activists.

I suggest that any reference to 'Gammon' should now be referred to as the 'G' word. Anyone using the word Honkey, Whitey or even Brexiteer should lose their job, be publically humiliated and even imprisoned for extreme cases. Anyone mocking 'G' practices like dancing badly, listening to rock music, wearing dodgy jumpers or gardening should be sent immediately on an attitude adjustment course.

These attitudes are just not acceptable in 2018.

Yet my description is pretty much laid out on that very page under the picture on the right hand side.

It's a typical example of the high levels of hypocrisy on the far left......they spend most of the time accusing their opponents of being racists whilst using skin colour based insults.
