Brexit - or Article 50: the Phoenix!

[bluewolf]

As a leaver I was hoping to be kicking a wholly corrupt bureaucracy into touch... Sadly, I had overlooked an equally corrupt bureaucracy was likely to be working to deflect my wish...

It's a strange turn of events isn't it? I've accepted that a significant percentage of our political "elite" are bought and paid for for years. I just thought that the EU curbed some of the more Right Wing, Total Free Market aspirations of the English system.
If I was completely honest, I'd rather be governed by the EU than the English system fronted by people like JRM, BoJo, Baker, Hannan, Williamson etc 😳

oh dear... Tusk says Extension could be for a year..
... Leavers will say its too long
....Remainers will say its too short.

...cant please anyone these days..

The Eu again knowing more about brexit than our own prime minister

30th June she wanted .. so it’s april now that’s 2 months to sort what she couldn’t sort in 2 years

The Eu wisely say take a year but if your ready sooner farewell..

Sod the rush

If we are going to actually leave let’s get our ducks in a row and do it in the best way possible at least

Let’s not do the old we are lost let’s not stop and ask for help incase we lose face

Isnt that the British way to do it... Also includes standing in queue but not asking what the queue is all about..

EU know more because May is carrying out their orders. Frustrate , delay, cancel. Always been the plan.

Anyone seen Corbyn's 2009 speech about the Irish Refendum's? On Youtube, well worth a look. Exactly same process being rolled out again. But weird how Corbyn has changed his view. Maybe the cheques have arrived

Are you sure you didn't make that up.

Yes completely, Macron said on Monday that he didn't see how any extension could solve the issues in Parliament, and he's right, therefore he had a mind not to vote for any extension after April.

Not what I was asking about

He is right. Parliament won't ever vote for any of this. They hae planned for Ref2 from the morning after Ref1. If Leave win Ref2, there will be a Ref3.

You can't have a net contributor leaving the EU. There are not enough of those currently!

Hearing all the noises coming from the EU about us being in but loosing all rights to vote etc for the extended time we are in is in my opinion showing us exactly what they think of us, i bet we will still have to pay the full wack whilst
getting no input!! I think that's precisely the EU the Germans and French would like to take charge of .Time to tell them to stick it and walk away.

The EU are really good at spending member's cash - even when there's none left. T'was always going to come down to money in the end.

It was a misquote of a Thatcher statement!

The benefits of the debts from Quantitative Easing and bonds.

They were reacting to talk like this and are just looking to ensure we don't behave (even more) like spoilt children and start for example blocking budgets.

Well, be fair, a paraphrase!

Socialist governments traditionally do make a financial mess. They always run out of other people’s money.

there you are then... hope that helps!

Was it an accurate quote? No! Therefore it was a misquote! FACT!

I made no inference about WHY it was a misquote, simply stated the FACT that it was a misquote! (https://www.google.com/search?q=mis...69i59j69i60.7271j0j7&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8 )

The announcement of the first blackhole photos was made from across the road from the EU summit. - Says it all!!!

 

[drdel]

The Irish leader Varadkar has reminded us that about 50% of the UK want to Remain in the EU. He might want to reflect on the fact that about 50% of the EU citizens want to get out.

It's a shame most of the politicians weren't sucked into it!
