We' ll hear much less recriminations but this would be much harder for the country.

The high Covid rates in the UK are due to locals not self distancing . All those riots and gatherings in the summer , all the protests and taking down statues and completely unconcerned about the virus , caused the virus to spread .

I do think that if overweight people didnt mix with others who had the virus , they wouldnt have contracted the virus . Overweight people who stay at home contract Covid , slim people who congregate with infected people do not contract the virus ? OK. If you say so 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let us go, its what we want Because the EU is good and will never slam the door on the UK even though the country took "the worst peacetime decision of modern times". Only Johnson can make the UK leave with no deal, it shall be his sole responsibility. Even if that happens, the EU will still be open to peaceful negotiations. With the UK, Scotland, Northern Ireland whomever I personally think we owe this to the British people, which was fooled by populist politicians. 4 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it wasn't, and business was was promised access to the single market, haven't the UK been negotiating for the last 4 years for preferential access to that market. I take it selective memory has removed TM's dealings with the Japanese. The whole cake and cherries came about because the UK want the market without following the rules, contradicts your idea of what brexit meant. Sandy you know very well that David Cameron promoted this over and over again. You are disingenuous with this and being on the ballet paper. After all aren't the remain voters the intelligent ones that are keep being reported. If you can't believe the prime minister David Cameron who was the leader of the remain vote and need to have it written down on the ballot paper. It was leave or remain on the paper. I know I voted. It didn't say anything such as with a deal. Leave and remain and those people who voted all knew what it meant. If they didn't then it is their fault and nobody else. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
