There are 751 members in the EU parliament. The desperate British hear 1 of them speaking and they see light at the end of the tunnel.

 

It seems the British (including you) are really getting desperate.

 

 

 

Also a member of AfD. Extreme right wing, anti European party.

    There will be no downside to Brexit, only considerable upside. David Davis   The day after we vote to leave we hold all the cards and can choose the path we want. Michael Gove

  • Why should the EU negotiate with an ex-member, that voted to leave ? They should let Britain stand outside in the cold for twenty or twenty-five years. Then maybe let them back in, if they ask nicely.

  • I see 20 weak  countries  bailed  out by a  very few stronger  ones, how do you see that

Believe me, public opinion is AGAINST any deal with the UK now.

 

 

 

What does public opinion matter? This is the EU. There will be no vote on it.

I didn't know that. The only thing I see are some desperate British people here who see it as a sign that there can be an agreement. I really hope we passed that point.

Believe me. Every country has to agree. They all have to vote in their own parliaments in their own countries. And if any of the EU members does not agree there will be no deal.

 

I really feel like talking to a Trump supporter.

No, it depends on what Boris' backers want. See post above yours.

 

You don't get to choose. There will be no referendum on what deal to accept.

 

We already had the referendum. We chose to Leave the EU and we have left.

 

We also had a General Election whereby we chose the Conservatives on a campaign of "Get Brexit Done". We can't have a referendum on every minutia of the future trading status, that would be ridiculous. 

 

However, the democratic process has served us well despite the anti-democratic factions of the Remain side.

I think you'll find that it was me that said that you're not getting a referendum. It might screw up Boris' agenda.

Of course, some members will say the opposite. Hence my point that the EU is divided. I never claimed they ALL think the same thing.

 

I quoted 3 MEP's to show that there is real division there, and you have inadvertently proved my point.

Rather than believing you, can you provide credible evidence to back your statement that the "public is AGAINST any deal with the UK now"

You quoted 3 of 751 and make the conclusion that there is real division?  Would you make the same conclusion if 3 people in the British parliament say something?

After talking with some pro Brexit supporters from the UK I learned 1 thing. FACTS do not matter. It is not surprising that the UK is such a mess.

 

I am going to spend my time in a better way. And I pray for a NO DEAL Brexit.

I knew you couldn't, your posts are tinged with a smidgen of the sour grape variety.

Who is Michael Charles?

As Nauseus said, Charles Michel. My mistake for reading his name off twitter, and not having anything to do with all that social networking, was not aware how it presents a name.

Are you an insider, or are you assuming...?

Don't take my word for it.

 

Watch the 2:05 minute mark and the 5:55 minute mark (yes, 555!).

 

9:45 will also open your eyes.

 

One big happy family!

 

 

2.05 Nicolas Bey. French. Member of National Rally, formerly National Front. 5.55 Tom Vandenrisshe, member of Belgian party Vlaams Belang, formerly Vlaams Blok  which dissolved after a trial in 2004 condemned the party for racism. 9.45  Finnish MEP Laura Huhtasaari member of the Finn Party Formerly True Finns a right wing populist party. She is anti EU and a Trump supporter.

 

Hardly a representative cross section of the European parliament.

Are you implying that because there are only 3 examples in the video I posted, that only 3 MEP's are fed up with Barnier's stance?

You said Public opinion is against any deal.

 

Here is where you said it...

Even if that were true (I'm not sure how you've arrived at such a conclusion) it doesn't matter since there will be no public vote.
