  1. I thought that was being given to the NHS, farmers, local regions or was it chums of the Government? In reality it’s being added to the operating costs of British business. These are direct costs of Brexit.
  2. I like to take others at their word. Your words were Crystal clear. ???? There again, perhaps you don’t know where you are.
  3. All a cost to business, all a drain on the UK’s already feeble productivity.
  4. Holiday travelers being delayed in the busiest day of the year is of course the news grabbing headline. But it’s not the real problem every day throughout the year freight traveled through the ports is delayed while the costly and time consuming customs paperwork the EU requires for imports from 3rd nations is completed. These costs and delays are loaded onto British businesses and are unequivocally a direct result of Brexit.
  5. Oh dear, you are rambling with your off topic fixation on the Labour again. Let’s get back to Lizzy and her appalling performance last night. No matter the question put to her, she clearly hasn’t got a clue what she’s talking about. Best of all is he financial illiteracy. She’s promising to cut taxes from day one of a Lizzy Government, the only economist backing her and the economist she herself refers to, Professor Patrick Minford, has stated her tax cuts would increase inflation and drive base interest rates to at least 7%. Even higher prices for all consumers, rocketing mortgage payments for those buying their homes and higher borrowing costs to business. Bring it on Lizzy.
  6. I watched the debate this evening, Truss was appalling. I do hope she wins.
  7. That’s a free trade agreement, it’s nothing at all like the EU.
  8. They aren’t in an economic and political union. Next.
  9. Comparing the (let’s be kind here) ‘developing economies’ of SE Asia with the developed nations of Europe is false equivalence nonsense.
  10. And a real close look. The French took control of their border.
  11. ‘Checked’. A cursory glance before being waved through. Brexit changed that.
  12. The Irish Border issue is inextricably linked to the Good Friday Agreement. Washington will not let London mess that up. And the UK needs a trade deal from Washington. This is no minor issue.
  13. Apart from the criminal prosecutions this is going to lead to, this behavior has set the Secret Service up for a complete strip down and rebuild.
  14. Hogwash. Providing easily accessible legal means for immigrants to do the work the US economy needs immigrants to do is not an impossible task And away with you and your eagerness to assign to me arguments I have mot made. I have frequently posted on the causes of migration to the US, including poverty, violence and fear of persecution in their original homelands. You are late to the party with your newly found concern for immigrants.
  15. No, not at all. Businesses that remain in business by breaking the law don’t belong in business. If a food producer gets caught using banned substances in its food production to cut costs it gets fined, perhaps the business owner goes to prison. The idea of holding people and businesses accountable to the law is not new.
  16. So punish businesses for employing undocumented workers. Simple, effective and self supporting from penalties and fines collected. It does however negate possibilities to visit cruelty and inhumane treatment on poor and powerless immigrants.
  17. You have done well as brand new member to find your way directly to the World News sub-forum. And unusually for for most, but not all, brand new members, you’ve jumped straight into the controversial topics with outlandish prophecies. I do hope you stick around long enough to see reality as it continues to unfold.
  18. The Tory leadership pantomime now being billed as “Thatcherite Cosplay”
  19. The DoJ has requested and has received transcripts if all testimony given under oath to the J6 Hearings. Now for what rational reasons might they collect this testimony?
  20. That’s what Grand Juries are for.
  21. He’s well supported by Fox News and the viewers of Fox News. Tge same Fox News that refused to broadcast live coverage of the hearings.
