  1. Seems to me you don’t know how the EU works. But please come on over, get a close up look how post Brexit UK is working out. Its not a pretty sight.
  2. There is no defense for Johnson’s lies, incompetence and corruption so when it comes up for discussion on this ‘expat forum’ his supporters attack the people pointing out the observable facts that they don’t like to hear about. It’s this Tory Government and their Brexit that is ‘trashing the UK’ not comments on observable fact, regardless of who makes the observation or where they are from. Here’s a fact, topics open for discussion on this forum are open to all forum members regardless of any other consideration than that they are forum members. It’s purely - case of ‘don’t like the news, blame the news bringer’.
  3. There’s no need to your self confessed ignorance of the ins and outs of what’s going on In ‘England’ persist, come visit and see for yourself. The country is going down the pan, while the Government takes every opportunity to grasp the ‘post Brexit bonus’ of stripping workers rights, civil rights, strips back consumer protections and moves towards downgrading food safety and hygiene standards. The fox is I charge of the henhouse.
  4. Let them eat coleslaw.
  5. And they used it it in Navy Recruiting campaigns.
  6. They weren’t fooled, they knew he was lying. They loved the lies because they didn’t like the truth.
  7. As opposed to a network of public schools.
  8. He’s a narcissist, he can’t accept any criticism let alone the humiliation off being kicked out of a job he believes to be his birthright. Somebody needs to tell him Leave means Leave.
  9. I suspect he’s got to the middle of next week.
  10. I would but it’s against the forum rules ????
  11. I seem to recall you saying something similar right up to the middle of last week.
  12. She’s a newly appointed Government Minister, forgive me if I have higher expectations of behaviour of those holding high public office.
  13. She we displaying the contempt this Government has for the public it is supposed to serve. Hand picked by a man who needs to be told ‘Leave means Leave’.
  14. Not at all, it’s an example of the damage Johnson continues to do while he remains as PM. ‘Leave means Leave’.
  15. Johnson surely knows how to pick ‘em. Newly minted Tory Government Minister Andrea Jenkins, expresses her feelings towards the public she is paid to serve:
  16. I believe that’s what the Tories are hoping for. But will the new PM address the problems being faced by the voting public? Do the voting public have any faith left in the Tories? Are the Tories going to elect one of Johnson’s enablers and go straight back to business as usual?
  17. Or maybe she does a good job representing her constituency rather than old school chums.
  18. She keeps getting elected by her constituency: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hackney_North_and_Stoke_Newington_(UK_Parliament_constituency)
  19. Nah, different time, different regulations in play at that time. Exactly the same outcome as the first police investigation. Had Starmer been fined he would have resigned, he made no attempt at all to dodge the investigation and made an unequivocal statement that he would accept its findings. Not so Johnson. Starmer was handed an opportunity to seize the moral high ground, he very wisely grasped it.
  20. Oh look Dianne Abbot popped out of her free accommodation again.
  21. The Police statement said ‘No case to answer’. The cases were not similar. ’Beergate’ turned out to be nothing but rightwing frothing, fabricated outrage.
  22. Over the top for the cold blooded murder of a man in handcuffs, payed face down in the floor and surrounded by armed cops. Yeh, OK. He got the sentences prescribed in law.
  23. Floyd was murdered in cold blood, while handcuffed and surrounded by armed Cops. His murder was nothing to do with ‘targeting criminals’, he was in police custody and a threat to nobody.
  24. Floyd’s murder wasn’t simply a ‘knock restraint’ issue was it?! Its more dangerous to be a teenager in the US than a Cop: https://amp.cnn.com/cnn/2019/03/22/health/gun-deaths-school-age-children-trnd/index.html You are making the argument of Cops executing (pun intended) extra judicial killing. Which I agree is a significant part of the problem, albeit hugely disproportionately visited upon Black men.
  25. How many were cold bloodedly murdered by Cops? Or are you just quoting statics that have no bearing at all on the topic under discussion?
