You might have a point , it’s all pretty meaningless now anyway

say thank you for the beatles

Many to blame , socialists , liberals , the Tories , Blair, the media , the House of Lords whoever etc etc
It’s a tragic sad situation

I like the Americans guiseppe they can do no wrong in my eyes

The older Americans , not the new ones

Great Britain and America , it’s like the colllapse of Ancient Rome and Greece
Except this time it’s happening at the same time together

some people think the House of Commons should be abolished and that the Lords should run the country

I'd say your Mam had some shock Cider, i know i did when i first went to London,great when you are young,the scale of London itself to me was almost unbelievable.Catholic Ireland then was non applicable there,overall a good thing.

I might be open to correction but didn't the tory party pass law last year allowing the American chicken despite election promise? Aussie trade deal re beef in pipeline. This stuff is against EU standards and hence the reasons for checks.

EU border checks are not because of specific recent agreements by non EU members such as:

"This stuff is against EU standards and hence the reasons for checks."

Part of the case against UK membership of the EU was that 'The EU is a protectionist trade bloc' (and the implication was that the UK would be better served to not be part of the bloc.

this is TRUE.  it is a trade bloc, with its own rules to protect its members.  the debate (as much as there was a debate) is whether the interests of the UK would be best served as a member or not.

There's no debate as to whether or not the EU is a protected trade bloc, it was before the UK left and of course it remains one now.  Therefore, the idea that the UK can leave the EU and the EU would cease to be a protected trade bloc once the UK has left is absurd.

This is literally what the English Nationalists voted for.  Non membership of the bloc. 

Disappointing it may be, that the bloc hasn't broken up, but it hasn't.  That Tory MPs can ask Frost how he's getting on with side deals with EU members is kind of horrifying, but also provides insight into the mindset of many posters here, who (I have no reason to believe are pretending) when they post through the prism of EU making choices in its enforcement of its own laws (to the detriment of the UK). 

it's not deliberate - it's part of the reason you wanted to leave.

Really weird how people don't understand the basics of stuff they get really passionate about.

lol you agreed a treaty and still don't understand what you actually signed up for

sums Brexit up in a nutshell

Unless you were totally tribal about this maybe the EU is actually doing the average British person a big favour?
Messing about with food is the pits,the less well off will end up eating it, the go ahead was given through the Commons in anticipation of a US deal despite the promise on their election manifesto.
Would this be just food? The easy way out is to agree on similar standards as the EU,why won't the goverment do that? I get the keeping options open but without being too cynical it(UK) hardly is going to be better standards.

The Express "lamb to slaughter,Eu poised to throw Ireland under the bus by triggering no deal brexit plan"
What a load of guff!

Talks have broken up , EU patience wearing thin

Yes,wearing very thin,seems as if the UK are trying to get out of their agreement,same as Sunak with tax,you are turning into a rogue state.

Duke of Cumberland was best remembered for his role in putting down the Jacobite Rising at the Battle of Culloden in 1746, which made him immensely popular throughout parts of Britain.He is often referred to by the nickname given to him by his Tory opponents: 'Butcher' Cumberland.


Scots will be more worried aboot
exporting the mighty haggis
to Norn ire

I love history , we can learn so much from it

What will happen on Burns night if there’s no haggis

There will be plenty of haggis
as the haggii will walk voluntarily across
Boris's Bridge to get to Norn ire

If they won't go voluntarily
then the farmers will chase them
over with their haggis dogs.
