I wont bother asking you why you consider that agreement to be 'poor and unacceptable.' You've never had an answer before, so I doubt that you have one now. But consider this. although he refuses to tell any one his proposals for his deal, including for some strange reason those he's supposed to be negotiating with, Cummings' Johnson's deal will inevitably be virtually identical to May's.

Only a buffoon would embark on any political endeavour without canvassing support and opinion. Unless Boris ”Remain” Johnson’s aim was always to undermine Brexit. Good job, Boris! Normal. No. A GE is a domestic issue. The EU should not be counselled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm glad, because I posted my arguments against months ago. Any "deal" Boris has in mind may well be almost the same as "May's". But now he's not well able to negotiate much at all, is he?

Popular Post tomacht8 Posted September 7, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted September 7, 2019 (edited) 3.5 years ago, people were sold the Brexit as a surprise bag, in which only great new things for all are in. - great new trade deals - less immigration of foreigners - less EU workers in the UK - own border controls - own laws without EU influence - better life situation for everyone What is the result after 3.5 years? - Negotiations on trade agreements usually take between 7 and 10 years. There is nothing besides empty statements of intent. - Oh wonder even without Brexit, the EU and also the UK has the lowest immigration rates in years. - In fact, fewer EU workers are currently coming to the UK. Open xenophobia also deters high-skill workers. Due to the weakness of the pound sterling and the uncertainty of the future, now many researchers, scientists, doctors and highly graduated people avoid the UK. - For the own border controls the trained personnel are missing and for the Northern Ireland border there is not even a solution. - The UK has been doing 95% of its own laws for decades. The last 5% mainly concern large corporations, product safety and environment issues. - Pound depreciation leads to more expensive holidays and more expensive imports. Price increases are starting. More income for all UK workers from 1 November? How?, when?, where? 350 million pounds a week for better health care? When, How? Foreign investments decline. Banks and insurance sector in uncertainty over Passport rights. And overall A divided Population. Where is now the better life situation for Britons? I have my doubts that many voted in favor of Brexit 3,5 years ago, wanted this current result. Edited September 7, 2019 by tomacht8 2 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

david555 Posted September 7, 2019 Share Posted September 7, 2019 Saturday 7 September 2019 14:30, UK https://news.sky.com/story/boris-johnson-could-go-to-jail-if-he-refuses-to-delay-brexit-says-former-prosecutions-chief-11804290 Breaking Boris Johnson could go to jail if he refuses to delay Brexit, says former prosecutions chief Former attorney general Dominic Grieve echoes the warning, accusing the PM of acting like a "spoilt child having a tantrum". The former director of public prosecutions has told Sky News that Boris Johnson could go to prison if he refuses to delay Brexit in the face of court action. The prime minister has said he will not agree an extension, despite parliament passing a law forcing him to do so. Lord MacDonald, who held the senior prosecutor post between 2003 and 2008, said legal action would mean a court ordering that "the law should be followed". "A refusal in the face of that would amount to contempt of court which could find that person in prison", he said. The cross-bench peer said this was "not an extreme outcome" as it was "convention" that individuals who refuse to "purge their contempt" are sent to prison. However it is also possible that a court could demand another figure in government authorises the delay. Dominic Grieve, an MP expelled from the Conservatives this week for backing an anti-no-deal law and former attorney general, told Sky News that Mr Johnson was acting like a "spoilt child having a tantrum". 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
