  1. That's settled then.
  2. What's this? looks like a bs wish list from Tug.
  3. I would broadly agree with that. Cameron's responsibility. Another complete let-down.
  4. Deflection away from a question....with another question. Predictable.
  5. Teresa May was a remainer. David Davis was a leaver. So although he was appointed Brexit Secretary, May surreptitiously undermined Davis by giving Robbins effective charge of any real "negotiations". Davis had had enough of this bs by the time May came back from Germany in July 2018 and he quit. May should never have been PM. The "Brexit done" rush was all about Boris's determination for a Brexit conclusion by end 2020. An ego thing probably. As you say, this TCA is probably better for the UK than nothing, lousy as it is.
  6. OK, I'll disagree on the first part and ignore the little lecture after that after that The press and most news media have become far more concerned with politics than true journalism since the 1980's - as a result of takeovers by wealthy individuals or groups - old school journalistic reporting standards have largely been replaced or removed.
  7. Pretty obvious. Stay out.
  8. The comment in this piece seems generally factual to me. Yes, the WA and the TCA were poor for the UK but the guts of the first one were little to do with Lord Frost, who entered the fray late on and was assigned the task of making the best job he could of modifying May's "Chequers Agreement", which was the only way to get any agreement with the EU. Critical elements of the WA were demanded by the EU and only modified by the UK, from May's midnight flit to Germany, probably had to have Merkel's blessing. The TCA was relatively rushed but Frost was under pressure from Johnson to "get Brexit done". Negotiations with the EU were already known to be lacking in the good faith department anyway and the clock was running.
  9. And how many of these "serious" news outlets exist? Can you name some?
  10. Well the traffic can be bad there on Fridays. Fair's fair and all that.
  11. After all, that's always the priority for you.
  12. Low av about 2m for those areas. There is still time for a lot more rain this year.
  13. Finally getting light down there then?
  14. Lose another point for deflection.
  15. I just completed this quiz. My Score 40/100 My Time 129 seconds  
  16. and you....
