His comments at the time , the WA had to bs scrapped. even saying no deal better than a bad deal He was responsible fod the new NI protocol claimimg it was glorious success from the UK government. What we now know , Johnson believed a bad deal was better than a no deal. He wanted No Deal but Parliament blocked it. https://metro.co.uk/2019/09/09/no-deal-brexit-officially-blocked-law-10711993/ So I put it to you Sir, that you are the one talking rubbish. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post 7by7 Posted September 16, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted September 16, 2020 1 hour ago, JonnyF said: Actually it was May's withdrawal agreement and Johnson had no choice but to accept it (with some minor modifications) since the traitorous 2019 Remainer Parliament had made it illegal to leave with No Deal. I agree that, apart from some minor modifications, Johnson's deal is identical to May's; with one major difference. Johnson's deal replaced May's Irish backstop with the Northern Ireland Protocol; which effectively placed a border between Northern Ireland and the rest of the UK. At the time, Johnson hailed this as HIS triumph. Brexiteers praised him and exclaimed how much better this agreement was to May's. They refused to accept that this agreement was, apart from this one factor, identical to May's. I'm sure that, like most Brexiteers on this forum, you were amongst them. Johnson prorogued Parliament because it would not pass his agreement. When that didn't work he called, and won, a General Election based upon it. A win which you lot hailed as a magnificent victory for democracy! I agreed with those, including most Ulster Unionists, who saw this Northern Ireland Protocol as a betrayal of Northern Ireland; effectively separating the Province from the rest of the UK and forcing it into an economic, maybe soon to be political, union with the Republic. But the agreement was made; Johnson signed it last January with much fanfare; proclaiming that it finally put into effect the result of the 2016 referendum. The 2020 Act enshrining it into UK statute law was passed the very next day. You lot praised him to the skies. Now he wants to do away with the only difference between his deal and May's. To do so with any honour would require negotiating a new agreement with the EU. Whether he does so, or retains enough of his majority to abandon the agreement unilaterally, what would that leave? The deal you lot all rejected as BRINO! 1 hour ago, JonnyF said: He had no idea that the EU would threaten to break up the UK using a contradictory set of clauses in the WA. When they informed him what they had planned, he brought about the internal market bill to give him the power to stop this. The bill itself doesn't break the law. It only allows him to break the law if the EU tries to break up the UK. Since the EU has broken international law many times and also plans to break up the UK as punishment for Brexit, I have no issue with this. What contradictory clauses, and why didn't Jonson get rid of them before proclaiming the agreement a magnificent victory for the UK? When have the EU threatened to break up the UK? The only threat to the UK comes from the border down the Irish Sea; and that came from Johnson and his advisors in the deal Johnson called a magnificent victory for the UK! Some examples, please, of the EU breaking international law. 1 hour ago, JonnyF said: If you do, that's tough. Parliament is sovereign Indeed; but if it allows Johnson to get away with breaking this agreement, with breaking international law then we could end up as a pariah state. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or has 4 years of being an irritating, condescending, vocal minority trying (but ultimately failing) to overturn Democratic votes finally taken it's toll? Really? You'd accept it? Just like you accepted the decisions of what you repeatedly refer to as the traitorous Remainer Parliament?

bkk6060 Posted September 16, 2020 Share Posted September 16, 2020 (edited) What is going to happen now to your already low pensions? Do any of you UK people ever asked what the heck your country does with the money? You have the worst pension in the western world. UK has lowest state pension of any developed country - OECD. British workers currently look forward to the lowest state pension of any developed country, according to a new report from a leading economic think tank. The above is from a UK article the UK ranks the worst pension in the developed world below poverty level in many western countries. Very sad situation in the UK that now may get worse.
