I will ask again. Where did I say it's "nothing to do with immigration?"

 

If you can't provide a quote where I said that don't bother replying.

So for you it is about immigration?

While you live in Thailand.

As a migrant.

  • You can chose between Barnier, Ursula, or any of the EU. They’re all as bad.  Boris has given them enough chances, now it’s time to walk away No Deal. 

  • Don't let the door hit you on the way out.????

  • Australian terms.....why do they persist in trying that on......although I guess it works with stupid people.

So much for the UK's ultimatum.

 

Deadline for Brexit Trade Talks Is Extended. Again.
Britain and the European Union agreed to give the seemingly intractable negotiations yet more time in an attempt to strike a deal and avoid a disruptive no-deal outcome before Dec. 31.

Surge of supertrawlers off UK before Brexit killing dolphins and destroying fish stocks, say ocean activists

Ten industrial-scale fishing vessels home in on Channel – and may still legally go in Marine Protected Areas

The fleet, mostly Dutch, started arriving last month, and their numbers gradually swelled to reach 10 on Friday. Two have been there for nearly three weeks – longer than supertrawlers usually stay.

On the Dutch super trawlers

On Friday, volunteers with the Brighton Dolphin Project found a porpoise washed up with its tail having been cut off. 

Animals such as porpoises that drown in the giant nets are cut out of them when hauled in so that they do not damage the nets. They are then thrown overboard.

My reaction was  that this can...,and shall also happen with U.K. fisherman ships also...., or don't they have no screws blades / propellers  or they just sail ...? ???? ... it shall  also happen with U.K. fishing ships , dreadful  but can happen .

Hence my bad joke (for the Dolphins ..) " big holes " but than no fish ever stay's in ????

There is a resemblance between Dutch ships hurrying up for catching the last fish, and UK nationals hurrying up applying for EU citizenship.

  OK, I am willing to listen , what percentage of leavers wanted to "completely leave " ?

I take it you know the answer to that and that you are telling the truth , I would have to think you were lying.

So, what percentage of leavers wanted to leave completely ?

 

didn't see you coming back with data, well I got some for you: apparently, you're part of the 17%

The latest polling suggests that only a small minority of voters – just one in six – supports a no-deal outcome

No, and the EU does not feed them to THEIR lower classes - lower classes that are better off then the UK middle classes, just look at the pensions.

the UK did leave, but as this poll indicates, a lot of the people who voted leave discover now they have been fooled

 

 

 

 

 

 

as i'm allowed three short quotes about how that came to pass, let's go

 

 David Gauke former cabinet minister in Theresa May’s government

Quote

“There were two incompatible promises which were made to the public by the Vote Leave side, One was that there would be very little economic dislocation as a result of Brexit, with the UK retaining very good access to the EU market, and the other that sovereignty would be regained as we took back control of all our laws and our borders.”

 

Another former cabinet minister :

Quote

“Essentially, the same tension that dogged our entire membership and drove us to Brexit has now driven us on to the rocks of no deal. We wanted the benefits of the European project and single market, but increasingly did not want to play by the rules that govern it if that meant ceding sovereignty.”

 

 David Gauke again

Quote

“Boris Johnson feels compelled to deliver something so appalling that, had it been clear in 2016, the referendum would have been a landslide in favour of remaining.”

 

 

source : https://www.theguardian.com/focus/2020/dec/13/britain-harsh-realities-no-deal-brexit-eu-uk

 

 

so as you say "it's too late", yes it is

 

 

 

I suppose you will tell us you are proud now ???? .

cheap unhealthy chicken  ->    Junk food    ->    obesity & diabetes

 

obesity & diabetes + Codiv-19 = death
