    More Brexiteer folly.   The only thing a new ‘hardline Brexit’ team will reliably slash is the value of the pound and the British economy.

    We have already paid half a TRILLION Pounds into this dictatorship NO MORE.

  • Michel Barnier has thrown down the gauntlet and stated that "we will never renegotiate the withdrawal agreement" This is aimed at any future PM. Looks like we will walk away then and you go potle

Which is why Farage hid and slipped out the backdoor when The Brexit Party failed to win.

The Guardian also said 

"Peterborough was a more delectable prize for Nigel Farage than any of the European parliament seats his Brexit party won last month."

 

Doesn't really sit well with what either of you said does it?

Regardless of how ‘delectable’ Farage thought it was, Peterborough was ‘a prize’ the Farage cult party failed to win.

 

For Farage and the Brexit Party, the delectable was unelectable.

If they can get it signed and delivered before the electorate read the small print, we’ll that would be just swell.

Amazing! I give you a Huff and Guardian link saying how well Nigel did in Peterboro and can provide similar Telegraph and Times links if you want and you give me an MSN link to MSN news, a Microsoft portal, based in the USA.

When did you last see MSN news reported as an authorative  source of info in Europe.

Is this the best you can do to support your argument?

You need to get your reading skills up to speed. Nigel didn't say "Peterborough was a more delectable prize" the Guardian did.....a newspaper of your political persuasion, by all accounts.

Let's take a proper look at the Peterborough result. 

 

This is a closely fought seat in GE's. In the 2017 GE Labour beat the Tories by just 607 votes. 

In this by-election Labour won by 683 votes, just about holding off a party that was formed less than 2 months ago. And this was after Labour campaigned for months, and did an almost obscene amount of canvassing in the week leading up to the election with Corbyn himself joining forces with the Labour candidate in Peterborough. 

 

All things considered it's a pretty startling result for the Brexit Party despite not actually winning.

What they really need is a Proper Negotiating Team. With MAY she was still all for staying in the EU and the deal reflected that. They need a team that will pull a hard brexit if need be and start negotiating free trade deals with the russians and chinese. Nothing the EU fear more then the british striking up a free trade deal with those 2!!!

Specially impressive since both the Conservative and Brexit Party did not use the anti semitic card. I believe that card will be shown if and when we have a GE.

Since Peterboro I see 2 complaints of anti Semitism have been filed agaist Lisa Forbes

Apparently she said Theresa May had a Zionist Slave Masters Agenda. In another comment she said she had "enjoyed reading" a thread claiming Islamic extremism was created by the CIA and Mossad. You have to hand it to the Labor Party they both pick and endorse quality candidates.

You speak as if negotiations with EU will restart from zero because UK will have a new PM... They will not!

Most things (if nor all) concerning the "divorce" have already be negotiated and agreed by UK & EU; they will not be negotiated again.

What may be negotiated is the Irelands' problem - the "backstop" - if ever someone propose a better solution... that has still to be found ????

 

Well it would seem a technical solution to that problem,has already been made. Amazingly by the E.u. According to a report by the D.E. Brussels corespondent. And this after previously stating that it was impossible.

 

 

Backstop breakthrough: Brussels set to use Brexiteers’ plan for Irish border solution

EU chiefs are dreaming up plans for a technological fix to keep trade flowing between Ireland and the continent via Britain in the event of a no-deal Brexit.

Why the fuzz ,as from a standup comedian (a role I really find him funny in ..) he became apparently a respected politician now, not the first one who became greeted with tomatoes, egg , confetti , tarts or similar ….

BTW  did somebody not put egg on Jeremy Corbyn …? that was done also in U.K. (just comparing the "maybe in your country " ,Oh , that was maybe allowed as coming from the other " good" side :wink:

When seeing this ,..  I remember his E.U. speech /rant " you ain't laughing anymore now " seems he isn't laughing now anymore at that milk moment , but agreed should not be done …..also not to Corbyn ..:whistling:

At the time of the referendum Perterbprough returned in excess of 53,000 votes for Leave.

 

Last week Farage again hoes back to Peterborough asking for support to his single issue (and just so there is no confusion) Brexit Party.

 

They came second with just over 9800 votes.

 

With a chance to vote in favour of a single issue that Brexiteers tell us is becoming even more popular 43000 Leave supporters in Peterborough went AWOL.

When I read threads like this I always have the same question in my mind. As someone who retired in Thailand what possible benefits does BREXIT bring to me?

 

Indeed I see the only benefits to anyone who has actually left the UK, are wholly by staying in the EU.

The UK has decided to deny me the right to vote, charge me for the NHS, financially prevent me from returning or house ownership because of the tax liabilities on my pension, as well as not have a clear view of what life would be like for me post BREXIT.

 

The EU on the other hand allows me free movement in locations around the med (sun and warmth), MUCH reduced tax burdens, esp countries like Portugal, France and Italy, access to quality healthcare at an acceptable cost, good legal protections, and reduced cost of living in some countries.

 

As a UK expat currently living Thailand I just cannot see what benefits BREXIT could have for me??? Its a sincere question.
