I don't see any evidence of them being applied. You will not see any evidence, either in UK or EU. They are both Tyrants. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orac Posted April 1, 2018 Share Posted April 1, 2018 I suspect that she is nearer the cliff edge than the EU. I think it is realistic to assume that when Brexit happens it will be far softer than many thought,to the joy of the bankers in the city and industry and to the anger of many Brexiters, she has to be a scapegoat along with Davis, Rees Mogg's star is burning bright but even he won't be able to turn brei into wood. Got a feeling they want her in place to be a scapegoat for local elections in May when the Tories are likely to get a drubbing.Sent from my iPad using Thailand Forum - Thaivisa mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How do you help a friend who's got rat-arsed, told his boss to stick his job where the sun don't shine, and is about to embark of a future career selling innovative jams to the world ? Me, I'd tell him to swallow his pride and get the job back, but maybe you a jam marketing expert? Like I said if it happens, it happens. I think it's wrong, like duel pricing in Thailand, but I can't stop it. I won't help it though. as my conscience would not be clear after. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fact there is an article, it's just laziness that the link to it wasn't posted. That said, the figure of 68% is misleading; 45% are in favour of Brexit and 23% are classed as Re-Leavers, that's Remain voters who think the government has an obligation to follow the will of the people. That's hardly 68% in favour of Brexit, more like 23% in favour of supporting democracy. Oh yes, I forgot to add, the poll is dated May 2017, about one year ago!!!
