Brexit - or Article 50: the Phoenix!

[robinthehood]

To clarify. I didnt mean animal rights or food safety standards being lowered, we should be capable of managing these things ourselves.

Oof
Free trade with the US means some very low standards....

You mean like the following comment below - that I can't see any relationship to his post?

He asked us to give it a break in respect of repeated comments about his French barber. as they were no longer funny. I asked that he give it a break in respect of his repeated snide comments about the motives of those who voted Leave as they were no longer funny.

Truth be told his insinuations of racism never were funny.

Oh yes! Yanks are falling like flies with chlorineitis 🙄

Have a look in to why they use chlorine.

Have a look in to why they use chlorine.

The EU say it is used so that the USA can have poor hygiene behaviour elsewhere in the chain.

The USA says there is no scientific proof of that and accuses the EU of protectionism.

One of those statements sounds familiar...

If you're happy to eat ultra cheap chicken that's been crammed into barns and raised with little to no regulation , then crack on.

Raising entirely valid points or defending his concerns?
Certainly nowhere near as many as those by the 'bullies' condemning his posting without countering his, quite legitimate and reasonable, continued scepticism - your post above being an example!

Merely asking a questionFH.

cannot see any criticism or bullying. X-ray vision have we old chap!

I assume that you do realise that even if we sign a deal that allows US chicken to be sold in this country that you won't be forced to eat it. I'll continue to do what I do now and go to my local butcher to buy my meat. And I also assume that you are equally vocal with your objections to chlorine washed salads that are currently freely available in the EU.

This is a simple question:

if the various constituencies voted 406 to 242 to leave why do the MP’s not follow their requests?

Very simplistic I know but very overwhelming

I'm glad I have your permission.

Sadly you're missing the point and it's all going over your head.

Because the referendum wasn't a vote along constituency lines. It was a UK wide vote. Which is why we don't constantly hear about Scotland or young people voting remain or old people voting leave. Oh, hang on a minute. 🤔

So educate me on the point you're trying to make that I'm missing.

What proof can you show to support your statement?
You talk as though Americans accept poor hygiene and are prepared to eat sub standard meat. Its absolute twaddle with no proof, we have higher levels of infection in chickens in this country, read the link that was posted and educate yourself. Oof!

Shadow Brexit secretary Sir Keir Starmer said Labour would oppose the deal, citing concerns it would allow the UK to move further away from EU regulations in the future.

I see that Labour still Dont get it. Am sure that's what the people of this country voted for. There day of reckoning will come at the next GE

Wow, it is true, the football thread isnt the worst on the forum. Who'd have thunk it eh

 

[Mudball]

I’ve gave up caring about leaving, I just want to “win”. So I can stick my fingers up and laugh at remainers. I don’t care about Northern Ireland, I don’t live there.
Any deal is now a good deal. Let’s move on to the next calamity. This ones got boring now.

Finally an honest man on this forum.. Attaboy..

I think where most leavers have got to ... but they have not got the honesty to admit that their comments about the land of milk and honey never existed.

Has labour had it's day .. under Corbyn probably. But to believe all American is great is a sad state of affairs, there is some good but most is bad. Remember the US was never touched by any of the world wars .. it hasn't had to rebuild itself, it has only profited. It provided us with inferior goods like liberty ships and sherman tanks at a cost that we were paying for beyond the Millennium. Look what they have done to the Kurds and it leaves you thinking I don't want to have any relationship with you.
