Post Brexit passports are already sorted. I got a new passport earlier this year and it no longer has "European Union" on it.

rah, rah, rah, it's not blue yet is it? maybe the French haven't got round to producing them yet

It was probably Macron that ordered the printers to remove "European Union" from the British passports.

 

Steady on Emmanuel, we haven't gone yet!

But just an hour after Merkel spoke, Macron said the demands made by Johnson for a renegotiation of the divorce deal, including the removal of the Irish backstop, were not workable as they currently stood. Johnson is due to meet Macron in Paris on Thursday.

Thats not nearly, even remotely, as negative as the headline "After Germany hints at compromise, France tells UK: no new Brexitdeal" makes out.

 

I think everyone understands there needs to be a compromise, its just WHAT and HOW BIG they will be.

 

Full disclosure: I am an ardent remainer but see that politically we need to leave as feeling in the UK is very strong to have this whole thing put to bed and move on. All we need is an agreeable deal now.

I guess he realises he was talking a load of rollicks.

actually not. What you and other Brexiters usually say is that Germany calls the shots. In fact, what Germany or France does is take advantage of the some obstructive possibililities afforded by the EU that even the smallest nations can avail themselves of. As you may recall, thanks to the recalcitrance of one province, the EU treaty with Canada was significantly delayed by Belgium.

It's impossible to stop, quit crying and move on. Democracy will prevail in the end against these treacherous remainers

Treacherous? As in Traitors? As in North Korea?

 

Keep thinking like that, and soon you will have another civil war, not just in Northern Ireland, but in England as well.

And you conveniently ignored that another poster labelled as "treacherous" those who continue to oppose Brexit. Or did you tell that poster to "behave" as well?

They revealed an important state secret? Namely, that Boris Johnson is clueless.

The secret maybe that he isn't.

Precisely. 

 

"You are in a tiz today."

You just can't resist making it personal.
