Dominic Raab has resigned. Because of the crappy Brexit deal he was instrumental in negotiating...

But was he instrumental in negotiating this so called agreement, or was it the remoaner civil servant Ollie Robbins, backed by the remain supporter T.May.

 Here are the two main reasons he resigned.

 

For my part I cannot support the proposed deal for two reasons. First I believe that the regulatory regime proposed for Northern Ireland presents a very real threat to the integrity of the United Kingdom. 

Second I cannot support an indefinite backstop arrangement, where the EU holds a veto over our ability to exit. The terms of the backstop amount to a hybrid of the EU Customs Union and Single Market obligations. 

 

In other words this so called agreement is definitely not,what the British people voted for in 2016.

 

 

There is no Brexit better than the status quo is that so difficult to understand - we will stay in.

The third member of the government resigns (Esther McVey)this morning,and it’s still only 10am.  Now to see how many of this united cabinet follows them. The big question is, will T.May survive to day, to be replaced by a Brexiteer supporting P.M that will implement the wishes of the British people.

One of the unfortunate side effects of Brexit is that it has released into the UK wild a strange hybrid of pompous nationalists who come over like coked-up members of Dad's Army. Heroes in their own mind. 'sniff...

 

While also embittering a swathe of sneering, self-loathing, bourgeois trendies - heroes in no-ones mind, least of all their own, what with all that white-guilt ????.

That’s not true. It’s factually not true. People voted that the U.K. should leave the EU. With the current agreement, that will happen. Actually, the agreement doesn’t even matter at all. Article 50 has been triggered, the U.K. will leave the EU, whatever will be agreed with regards to future or interim relationship. 

Have we 'taken back control yet' - chaos reigns. Be patriotic , screw the pound , holiday at home with the world's longest reigning living monarch.

JC is ready and waiting to stroll into number 10 via a landslide,the £ will be worth 36-37bt,less than €1.00,and $1.10  inflation,taxes and unemployment will rise as will oversea's aid,thanks brexiteers and enjoy your 5-6 years of labour,you will be begging to rejoin the EU after JC screws you good and proper.

Let the pound free fall - it will help Global Britain be competitive , keep Brits holidaying at home and buying British preventing capital flight and supporting British businesses and help Great Britain to restart. I hope all patriotic Brits in Thailand will support me in their Brexit dotage. Bring it on 30 baht to the pound. Sorry expats time to accept reality about our Great Country and help to pay for the choices we have made.

An awful thought, but Hard Brexiteers are in Kamikaze mode and not to be diverted from a crash landing.

Double post. Sorry. Can we have a whip round for a new mainframe for TV?

Just watching PMQs, if nothing else PM Mays Brexit plan has united both sides of the house, everybody hates it. If I can quote a past member " Taxi for May"

May's successor can get stuck in and come back with a better deal.
