reminding politicians of the need to follow their promises, Brexit on the 29th

that is what they say

 

wishes beyond that I have not heard or read anything about

 

in an entry just up the street here tebee has a point when he says that it seems

like Brexit has become an end/goal in itself, the waters beyond Brexit still being somewhat murky

Brexit seems to have become an end in itself, rather than any benefits accruing from it. 

So the rest of us will put up with being poorer and all kinds of damage so that the morons get no benefit that they can explain? How sensible is that?

 

Instead of walking to Westminster, why don't they walk to Copenhagen or Amsterdam or Munich and see how others live?

 

I just find the depth of stupidity utterly amazing! ????

Fine. F it! Go for a no deal Brexit. It doesn't affect me personally. Let the morons suffer. I shall laugh at their self inflicted hardship.

More wise words from HoL. Viscount Hailsham is no fool.

Pretty good speech, he is a formidable orator, would be even better if he didn't have to rely on his manuscript.

Full marks for his very distinct pronunciation and slow speak,

and his incredibly simple language, he is in class with, if not better than, Bill Clinton.

Even Brexiteers should get his message. 5555

 

Disagree with his bits on UK and decline though, but never mind.

 

However,

he is somewhat out of touch with reality.

For years Cameron was rambling about a referendum on EU membership,

the referendum was arranged and the result was majority leave.

That is the mural.

The good viscount simply choses to disregard that. Not so good.

 

His ideas about revoking A50 and then negotiate a UK brexit deal while being a full member of EU?

Dream on viscount.

Is this what passes for humour these days in the UK? Smutty jokes, foul language and over the top reactions to everything,with a very slim and tenuous connection to comedy.

We should leave the EU out of shame.

You mean no-deal Hard Brexit on the 29th.

no,

 

at least as far as I have read, that is not what they say

they say Brexit on the 29th, one way or the other

I interpret that as including may-deal

 

but I guess no-deal is their preferred action

 

mai pen rai

 

walking from the shipyards to the political barracks is sound exercise

many will arrive leaner, good start for enduring the past 29th when

supermarkets run out of calories

 

 

my gaaaawd, isn't it high time you Brits get organized?

and get this bloody process on rails

You could also listen to him speaking and draw your own conclusions.

What a load of tripe.

 

I have heard him speaking and he has one of the abilities that you seem to lack.

 

He can laugh at himself.

 

He rarely raises his voice and if he is on radio or in an interview he seems genuinely interested about the person he is talking to.

This time I can only agree with you.

 

The UK Parliament has to stop listening to the screaming on the streets, ignore the terrible UK press and do what is the best for the UK (52% + 48%) overall.

Parliament is sovereign and that is what the wood heads also paid for.

Leaving the EU is a political change

 

What concrete benefits to these people ACTUALLY want? More secure employment? Better services? Bigger pensions? Cheaper food? What? WHAT?

As has been pointed out many times before, it is freedom from EU law makers, the ability to make our own laws and regulations to suit OUR country rather than the one size fits all approach from the unelected bureaucrats in Brussels, plus an escape from the ever closer union that those same bureaucrats crave. We'll never get another chance to escape. People think it's difficult to leave the EU now. In 5-10 years time it'll be impossible. 

 

As a nation of innovators and resilience we are more than capable of navigating the rocky waters that may follow a no deal Brexit, as has been proven so many times in the past. 

Personally I (and I suspect most other Brexiteers) would prefer to leave with a deal.  But unfortunately the majority our MPs are determined to stop Brexit, and may just force a no deal departure with their antics.

I do not see it that way.

I think more of a meaningful Brexit needs 5 years +.

You are already aware that the UK has received the most research projects from the EU funds ?

So the EU decides what to do with our money, and gives some of it back to us for the projects they choose. Why can't we choose what do with our money?

The grant distribution of the EU is based on competition. Competition of the best in europe. The competition is open to all research institutes in europe. 

The European Research Conservatory looks which projects are usefull.

Researchers of the uk are also sitting in this body.

Look at which research projects and topics the UK got funded by the EU.

Joint european research pays off.

I do understand.  We let others decide where our money goes. Simple 

And there is no reason why we can't do joint research in the future with Europe, from outside the club. They don't have to become our enemy. 

 

And by the way, the UK receives a relatively high amount of funding because we have great innovators and researchers.

Yes, and you know what we can do if we don't like the way our government is spending our money? We can vote them out in general election.

Sometimes I think that people criticize the EU and do not know how the EU works.
