You sound mad.

 

so you don’t care about democracy and the will of the people? About society and retaining our great British culture. About self rule. 

 

you only care about money. Selling our sovereignty to a German French alliance for a few % points. Sad. 
 

Lucky your the minority 

 

 

 

Mad? Can you elaborate, please? You keep making these expansive statements but thus far you have failed to offer any context. I appreciate that this is a very apt description of the entire Vote Leave campaign, but surely you can try to break the mould?

  • So strange all of a sudden the Brits will compromise on fishing. Maybe they finally realized they need the EU more then the EU needs them. I mean its the symbol of Brexit (as mentioned in the article)

  • It's attitudes like yours that cause so many problems.   Why not say "That's good the UK has compromised, maybe the EU can compromise a bit as well now and we can reach a deal"?  

  • What happened to "sovereignty" and "taking back control"? The UK is capitulating. As remainers  predicted would happen. The bluff and bluster of "we want no deal/clean break/WTO rules" faile

Bitter, me? Not at all - the pantomime is playing out just as I predicted several years ago, albeit without the prescience to foresee a pandemic being the thing which exposed how utterly unsuited to public office our corrupt clown of a PM actually is.

 

That aside, I couldn't have wished for a better Brexit.

Your failing in this particular field leads me to assume you were either a TA wallah or a barrack rat on a biff chit ????

I feel that I would justified if I was, indeed, angry, due to the needless despoiling of so much to satisfy only 37% of the electorate so that they can achieve something which, after 4 years, they still cannot define.

 

The 63% who have to suffer because of them have every right to be angry, but I am perfectly content. Everything is going swimmingly.

Brexit – Another Deadline Gives Negotiators 7-Days to Wrap Up a Deal

 

According to the updates from the Biden-Johnson talk, a trade agreement will be hinged on respecting the Good Friday Agreement. Ahead of the Presidential Election, Democrats had delivered similar messages in the wake of the Internal Market Bill vote.

With the EU suing the UK over the Internal Market Bill and Biden’s clear message, the Brexiteers will need to tread carefully.

Ah the English exceptionalism just shines through eh? UK independence but no Scottish independence because empire and the need to Lord it over someone.

Still missing the point. Oh well, never mind. The UK will be free of the CFP and that changes everything. What do you think the fuss is all about?  

 OK, what point were you making when you said

You seem to think that the EEZ is only concerned with fishing. What rubbish.

 

 

Yes, the UK will probably be free of the CFP, but some sort of arrangement, for example similar to that between the EU and Norway will need to be made to not only maintain historical fishing rights but also to maintain stocks of the most popular fish; under threat again, this time from climate change.

They were both extremely duplicitous. It's ironic that he talks about lies and breaking promises. He is lieing about us being told we would stay in the single market, the PM at the time David Cameron made it perfectly clear that we wouldn't.

Yes, Cameron, a Remain campaigner, did say that. But Johnson, Gove and many other Leave campaigners called his warning "Project Fear" and assured us we would maintain full and unfettered access to the single market. 

 

As a 'new' member you missed all the evidence posted here of Vote.Leave's duplicitousness on this point when your point has been made before.

 He wasn't asking them; he was asking @transam and those others here who repeatedly call him and other Remainers 'anti British" because we not only have a different opinion on what's best for our country but also express it.

 

That's called democracy.

Do you still expect to keep the bits of EU membership you like whilst ditching the rest?

 

I know that is what you were promised by Vote.Leave in 2016, but surely even you must have seen through that lie by now?

The government is not ready for it, the country is not ready for it, business is not ready for it. The government is starting  to realize that there is no Brexit that will satisfy anybody and is arguing with itself and me at very well implode. 

One thing is for sure, you're not ready for it and you never will be.

Theresas Mays deal would have satisfied the remainers after all it was BRINO, but you chose not to support it, it is no good now crying over spilt milk, you missed your chance, greed got the better of the remainers. They thought that they could overturn the democratic decision that the UK had voted for, and that boat has now sailed, the remainers and only the remainers are the reason why we are where we are today, next time tebee grab your opportunities with both arms, you very rarely get a second chance.

 

 TM deal was not BRINO, it involved leaving the CU and SM, indeed it was these choices  that have doomed the subsequent Brexit to failure.

 

As for us not being ready, read this -

Had you read the article and not just the headline you would have seen

Quote

Eurofighter is the consortium which represents the core nations’ industrial partners including Airbus, BAE Systems and Leonardo.

The company is operational with seven nations including Germany, Italy, Spain, the UK, Austria, Oman and Saudi Arabia........

BAE Systems will reportedly deliver more than a third of the components for each of the new aircraft ordered by the German Air Force.

This will include the aircraft’s front fuselage and tail with the final build being undertaken by Airbus in Manching in Germany. 

 So unless BAE Systems had decided to leave the consortium, they wold have got this contract Brexit or no Brexit.

 

Nice try, though.

 

Of course, what will happen in the future if there is no UK/EU trade deal and so under WTO rules components manufactured in the UK are subject to import tariffs when shipped to Germany, remains to be seen.

 Having studied both WAs, apart from the way of dealing with the Irish border, I can see little difference between Boris' and May's. Especially as Boris now wants to renege on the NI part of his!

 

Perhaps a Brexiteer can explain the differences for this simple soul?

Oh come on tebee, are you telling us that May/Robbins would not have been more obliging than they already were, if Verhofstadt had have asked for No 10s Larry the the cat he would have got it, fried or boiled.

Boris's deal is May's deal with the Irish border move to the middle of the Irish sea .

Any sovereign state has special exclusive rights within its own EEZ w.r.t. the exploration and use of marine resources. Any agreement with other countries will need to be carefully considered by the UK to avoid a repeat of fish stock decimation and waste after decades of bad CFP policies, which are also responsible for the low stocks already in the Mediterranean. The migration patterns of some species have been altered to some extent by climate change but this has little to do with the issue and which has had far less effect on the health of fish stocks than the methods and greed of some continental European fishermen and their beloved EU CFP.

The greed wasn't with the European fishermen. The greed was with the small number of companies that owned the British fishing fleet and sold their quotas to the European fishing fleets. Some major contributers to the Tory party in those fleet owners.
