luckyluke Posted December 13, 2019 Share Posted December 13, 2019 Just now, roquefort said: Absolutely. As we always intended to do when we joined the Common Market, not a bloated, anti-democratic superstate led by unelected bureaucrats. But the E.U., being a bloated, anti-democratic superstate led by unelected bureaucrats, will in no way stop the U.K. to do businesses with it, if a agreement between the 2 parties can be found. So the U.K.citizens may call the E.U. what they want, the U.K. government don't really care. And I dare to say that I believe that every government worldwide is the same. Citizens have the right to vote, and express an opinion, it stops there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you have any link to your profound statement that it will be a "soft brexit" if you have you know more than all the interviewers and interviewees and all the experts too, I would have thought that Boris the Great doesn't even know his direction on Brexit at this moment in time.

The United States of Europe or whatever some British will labeled the E.U., will not be considered as a problem for the U.K. to continue, (if possible,assuming they come to an agreement) to do business with the E.U.. Many, including me, want the trading group but do not want any part of the political union. Bit late in the day I realise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He can not take his time as you say, unless he will break another promise. And since the election was about that promise that won't happen, he also doesn't need additional time.

You have an opinion and your opinion in my opinion is the not liking of Boris, I feel it has skewered your opinion, whilst my opinion of Boris is that his hand is considerable stronger than it was 24hrs ago, which is fact.
