Popular Post Loiner Posted October 19, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted October 19, 2020 28 minutes ago, 7by7 said: No; it didn't. The EU treated us the same as all third country list applicants by asking us for assurances about our food standards. From 23/9/20: UK satisfied EU won’t block food exports after Brexit.. The EU, signs an international treaty and, despite extreme provocation, has shown no sign that it ever intends to break it. Meanwhile Boris proclaims that agreement as an oven ready deal which will get Brexit done, wins an election on that promise, signs it with much self aggrandising fanfare and gets it enshrined in UK statute law via an Act of Parliament. All the while with his fingers crossed behind his back! Perfidious Albion, indeed. Oh yes they did. The cheating EU knows our food standards as they have been aligned with the EU for years. Boris was forced into making the WA, which using his new landslide he had to force through a Remainer dominated parliament. He is now correcting those parts with which the EU threatened parts of the United Kingdom. Next step is to ditch the whole WA. Cry God for Boris, for Albion and St George.

The results are pro remain at most intervals over the last 4 years. From the initial data, the weighting of sampling by geographical area is disproportionately high in London, the south of England and in Scotland, which probably explains why there is almost always a pro remin bias.

We wouldn't be almost there without him, and not stuck in the cheating EU's tentacles. The "tentacles" thing is a nice touch, but if the UE is the biggest problem of the UK today (I mean except for those of you who still believe the UK "holds all the cards"), the UK will have to deal with the tentacles of the US and the tentacles of China. Up to you to choose what tentacles you prefer, but mostly the UK could be entering now in a process of "Lebanization" : torn between bigger powers that each want to tear off a piece of you. The US will impose their policy on the UK (ban chinese 5G, accept US food standard at the expense of you farmers). Russia will keep using Novichok like in Amesbury. China will continue breaking the joint declaration on Hong Kong and there's not much the UK can do because they break treaties too. Clearly it's a dangerous world for Global Britain. Now the UK does have its own "tentacles" : what is your opinion on Northern Ireland and Scotland, all? Considering these nations want "to take back control" and be a member of the UE, should they be free to do so?

Popular Post Loiner Posted October 19, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted October 19, 2020 On 10/17/2020 at 10:17 AM, Hi from France said: Hi all! Nice active thread/forum : just created an account. I'm an anglophile (did part of my studies in the UK with Erasmus), very interested in Brexit. best 5 hours ago, Hi from France said: The first part is certainly true "the UK jointly invested in this"... and the rest is just the usual "evil empire" talk. I think it was a huge blunder to leave the EU, and sticking to your "evil empire", "project fear", "take back control" rhetoric does not help getting a clear vision of what the UK should do next. Brexit in itself was a very very bad idea based on false premises. Now what is done is done: the UK is out and cannot go back in anytime soon. Now, if at least this stupid Brexit idea had been implemented by the witty and clever british people I used to know, the country could have somehow controlled the damage. Right now this is just a mess, and complaining and repeating the same slogans over and over is not in any way a solution. You know, we used to define (with much admiration) the brits as no-nosense, down-to-earth, efficient, pragmatic people. 4 hours ago, Hi from France said: your country has already walked out, what's done is done, you can blame all you want, but you have no more say in UE policy that I have in british policy. now no-nonsense could start with comparing what was promised to you four years ago and what you have now. let's be down-to-earth and pragmatic, can you recognize these politician and pragmatically tell me if as of today, you still believe what they promised? 4 hours ago, Hi from France said: the UE has been indeed rejected, there is no discussion there, it's done now again please tell me more about what was promised to you. You now have had four years to check the promises made, let's be "no nonsense" 2 hours ago, Hi from France said: I understand this forum has a lot of british pensioners, the most brexit-prone demographic. So a lot of hardened brexiters not objectively ready to acknowledge Brexit was indeed a terrible choice. Now, if you poll the British people, there is growing consensus that leaving the EU was the wrong move for the country. It didn't take you long to decide on which side your anglophile interest in Brexit falls did it? Did you have a Remainer coming out party that we missed somewhere? Maybe it's because you claim to be French, but I get a distinct feeling of 'Deja Vue'. Are you sure we haven't met before, in a past life maybe, and now you are like a reincarnation of an old foe? 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Difficult to have a poll on attitudes to the referendum result before the referendum result is known! I can find nothing to substantiate your assertion that "the weighting of sampling by geographical area is disproportionately high in London, the south of England and in Scotland." Perhaps you'd be so kind as to show me where you found that information. Pro Remain bias? No; pro Remain results. Personally, as I've said before, I believe the only polls which count are those at the ballot box. But as opinion polls in general, and YouGov in particular, have been used many times in the past by Brexiteers to 'prove' how popular Brexit is, it is amusing that now they are showing the opposite some are trying to disassociate themselves from that organisation! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The European Union (Withdrawal Agreement) Bill was presented to Parliament on 19/12/19 and received Royal Assent on 23/1/21. A remarkable, virtually unpresented, short passage; especially when Parliament was in recess from 20/12/19 until 7/1/20. Not such a difficult journey! If Boris' WA has so many loopholes in it, why did he present it as an oven ready deal before and after the election and celebrate it's signing with such enthusiasm? Lying, or incompetent? If you truly believe that proving to the world that he and his government cannot be trusted is "enabling this country to hold its' head high in the world" then there really is no hope for you. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shortly after castigating the EU for its attitude to the talks during an appearance in the House of Commons, Gove had to backtrack as he stood at the dispatch box following a tweet by the bloc’s chief negotiator, Michel Barnier. Barnier who spoke to his British counterpart, David Frost, earlier in the day, wrote: “I just spoke to David Frost. As stated by [European commission president] Ursula von der Leyen on Friday, I confirmed that the EU remains available to intensify talks in London this week, on all subjects, and based on legal texts.
