I think you are doing the right thing by considering a Nissan, they will be more emission friendly and last you longer than the German counterpart version. You will probably get it for half the price of the German car too. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post aright Posted July 9, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted July 9, 2018 If the great Brexit betrayal isn't reversed, I'll have no choice but to return as Ukip leader I never wanted a career in politics. I only ever wanted to stop the country I love being sucked further into a political and economic union which is most unnatural to the instincts of the majority of my fellow citizens. However, my own red line is that if Article 50 is suspended or delayed, I will have no choice but to resume campaigning in all parts of the United Kingdom. https://uk.news.search.yahoo.com/search;_ylt=AwrJQ5s7s0NbK1cA5wlLBQx.;_ylu=X3oDMTByZmVxM3N0BGNvbG8DaXIyBHBvcwMxBHZ0aWQDBHNlYwNzYw--?p=If+the+great+brexit+betrayal+isn't+reversed+I'll+have+no+choice+but+to+return+as+UKIP+leader&fr=yfp-t-s&fr2=cosmos 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Add to that you seem to want to tell us that Brexit is only an economic issue and you will tell us what subjects are permissible in the debate. Away with your madness. You have obviously chose to ignore the topic title, which relates to the brexit negotiations. Emotional speculation and opinion on EU member state domestic issues have no bearing on the brexit negotiations whatsoever and are effectively off topic.

sandyf Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 Has it ever been fit to negotiate. Though the Commission has responded cooly to the political chaos in Westminster, behind the scenes EU officials are concerned about the stability of Ms May’s government and whether it will be fit to negotiate with. https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/boris-johnson-resignation-brexit-david-davis-theresa-may-eu-resigns-cabinet-a8439201.html 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sandyf Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 Has she put the fox in the henhouse? Among regulations Mr Raab said should scrapped are the EU’s Working Time Regulations, which restrict the number of hours an employee can be forced to work 48 hours a week or 13 hours a day. They also guarantee at least one day off a week, a minimum of four weeks’ paid annual leave a year. https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/dominic-raab-brexit-eu-workers-rights-uk-talks-brexit-secretary-a8438706.html 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dick dasterdly Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 (edited) Not sure about 'fox in henhouse', but she's clearly appointed someone that the tory politicians will love - and poor, working people will hate.... I'm not sure whether:- 1) she's 'played a blinder' (in that those poor, working people - likely leavers) may be frightened by his appt., and possibly support remain as the lesser of two evils or 2) made a very bad mistake (resulting in said poor, working, voters that previously voted tory,) turning to another party.

OK I will say it again, although those posters who have been on here a while, certainly for the 2 year period since the 2016 referendum. I voted Leave. I was still eligible for a vote even though I have lived here in Thailand for a long time. I follow politics and believe everyone should, if they want to have a say and have their opinions valued. So I listened to the prime Minister DC who clearly stated that by voting to Leave the EU we would leave the single market, customs union and European court of Justice jurisdiction (although I always thought this was never a complete leave) So from the above I voted leave. everyone I know who voted leave did the same with the same understanding. The term soft and hard brexit wasn't invented and has been so, by remainers trying to 'stop the above. tebbe is that clear?

There are few Brexit related things to which LG and I agree, but he certainly doesn't deserve the goading that you are throwing down. 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
