And that is the whole fishing problem. Uk fisherman catch fish that people in the UK won’t eat. But suddenly Brexiteers care about our disgusting fish, 5 years ago they would not have cared less.

  Its about principles . 

You can have the fish, as long as we agree to it .

You cannot just come and take them without our consent

Because markets hate uncertainty. The pound has jumped because now the markets know what is happening. Don’t be fooled into thinking that just because the pound has risen that this means it is a good deal for the UK.

  Why is a high pound good for the UK .

The high Bhat isnt good for Thailand /the high Deutsmark wasnt good for Germany

Having a high currency isnt necessarily a good thing

so I went shopping a few hours ago and I was shocked

 

 

 

but in fact this is :

 

so scottish, french quality label ... and its not sea salmon

 

as we say "alors ça va" ????

 

 

 

  In the UK , we don't really eat fish 

Cod and chips now and then , but fish is not really something we eat .

When a deal is made between two parties the side that comes rushing out to say what a great deal they have got is  the side that got the <deleted>ty end of the stick. Boris has been quick to boast. Let’s wait for all the details but it looks like the UK has got the <deleted>ty end of the stick.

  Aare you forgetting the French side , who have claimed victory and the UK "folding " in the last few days , BEFORE any deal was agreed upon  ?

My condolences to those leavers, who always insisted that they would leave without a deal which Boris claimed he would, as they didn't need the EU and would never back down on the fishing rights, but now have to live with the consequences that Boris once again lied and sold them out to the EU

  More lies .

The suggestion was that we would leave without a deal if we got offered unfavorable/unfair terms

Now that there is a deal, will corpuschristie insist that the food aid that Germany sent, be redirected to Africa?

 False, can be called a lie .

No food aid was sent from Germany .

Just a different means of transport , flight instead of a lorry .

Complete fallacy to state it was "aid", just using a different means of transport

ok Boris surrendering will be announced in a few hours today ????

 

the deal is done, they have to read proof it and make it official to the press

 

then we have to wait for the UK parliament approval and the EU27 approval, so we could be in for another 6months battle next year, so all good ????

  Nope , the UK is out the E.U , we have signed new agreements with the E.U .

So, next negotiations in German, French or another EU member country's language

 

As a London trader told me

 

when you know two languages, you are bilingual

with 3, you are triple lingual

with 4.. you are en genius

with just only one... you are British 

  You speak my language , I have no need to learn yours

 The lorry drivers should consider it as practice  if there is a no deal this will be the new normal. Lufthansa flew in 90 tons of perishable goods for Aldi and Tescos.

  That would be an improvement , cut down on lorrys on the road , pollution and food gets to the UK fresher .

Hopefully it will be the new normal , get all the trucks off the road

i was just going to watch a live broadcast about Brexit but it has been postponed,

deal or no deal?

My bet is on deal.

  I have a feeling that Boris and European commission President Ursula Von Der Leyen are going to announce  their engagement  with a Summer weeding .

  "After being together four years , we have decided to make our relationship official , he visits as often as he can and phones me most nights . We will have a April Wedding, because our babies due in May"

The queuing drivers and their passengers have no toilet or washing facilities, many have no access to food and drinks and they have just been left to their own devices by the Government. The army should have been mobilised setting up food kitchens and washrooms along with Covid testing. The Government has behaved shamelessly, poorly and they have demonstrated to the world how grossly incompetent they are.

  I do think the French Government should have provided those for their fellow Countrymen

It is widely regarded as an apartheid state so from that base how can there be many redeeming factors to it.

  No it isnt , ALL Israeli citizens have equal rights , whatever their Religion , Gender or ethnicity .

Only Anti-Israelis call Israel an "Apartheid state"

Ask why the English did not show up with a 10.000 fast corona tests. Problem could have been solved 24 h ago.

  Course it couldnt .

You expect 10 000 people to get get tested at the same time, all get their results and all get on a boat across the channel at the click of a finger  !!!!!!!! 

24 hours ago, the port wasnt even open for them to arrive in France 

  Just another Brit bashing post

The real mistake was to swallow the Brexit lie that ‘they need us more than we need them’.

  Who told that "lie" , or did you errrrrm just make that "lie" up ?

a quick summation: all indications are that 1. there will be no tariffs; 2. an arbitration clause for any disagreements about the level playing field issues and 3. fishing rights is going to be so open to interpretation that both sides can claim a win.  3 years of kickers in a knot and ...it's a draw. what a bunch of knackers - I'm off for a pint, then.

  Had we stayed in the E.U , you would be going out for 0.6 liters

  Personal letters sent to the deceased's Wife , where he was offering his condolences , really shouldnt be used to show a persons political preferences .

Bah

 

Boris wanted to become Prime Minister so he switched his discourse from a Remainer's discourse to a Brexiteer's discourse. 

 

 

  Thats a lie .

Boris was s Euro sceptic in the 1990's and this is before just prior to the 2016 referendum

Exactly. 

 

Same as the red bus. If someone said to me "Let's go to Australia on holiday in 2024" I wouldn't take that as a promise that was set in stone and we were definitely going to Australia in 2024. It's a suggestion about what we could do, if we so choose. It's an option.

 

Still, Remainers love to misquote and partially quote. Same as the Liam Fox "easiest deal in history" quote. They never quote that he said "should be" and qualified it with the following line. 

 

 

Deliberately misleading, and disingenuous in the extreme. Very underhand.

  And they are also the ones who keep calling people liars and fools whilst still not being able to comprehend basic English .

  "Lets go to the beach today, it should be nice weather "

*It rained today, you lied about it being sunny today*

Errrr OK

Since you don’t seem to understand a ‘prediction’ only becomes a true statement when the predicted result occurs, you are indeed wise to eschew teaching 

  No, a prediction remains a prediction , it doesnt change .

Also , if you suggest something "could " happen , and it doesnt happen , that doesnt mean ................cannot be bother with teaching basic English, sorry
