Brexit

[Jack Staff]

Hi Jack,

The only thing Theresa is guilty of is trying to further our trading options

I loved her dance moves.....they certainly brought a smile to my face.

.......

Made me cringe!

"All the EU stuff is on the internet"

Posted on the Internet by bias media...and seized upon by those who won't accept the democratic will of the people

...........

I know you don't like my links, but if you had looked you would have seen the link was to the EU website. I can accept that you might consider them biased, but they are certainly not media!

How's the "peoples vote" going Jack?

Brilliantly! Once the news wakes up again from the holidays and we get into conference season the fun is really going to start.

I thought I read that people's vote was touring the country with a huge road show financed by George Soros that well known man of the people. Has it happened yet because summer is officially over tomorrow? It's just that for a movement that claims to have the majority behind them, it's awfully quiet. I expect that's the Daily Mail's fault or the Russians or Cambridge Anylitica or .........

Hi Barney,

I think Jacks post should have read.... "Brilliantly Embarrassing" ....after weeks of campaigning the peoples vote still hasn't reached 300,000

No point in blaming the news Jack l think you need to get out there and get the remoners to wake up.....what a shambles of a campaign

[Manoverboard]

I am no longer getting notification of new post.Is this an attempt to silence we Remainers?

There aren't any NEW posts … just repeats of the old ones

[Mervyn and Trish]

Has this become the comedy thread? I just love Jack's idea that the internet contains all we need to know about the EU negotiations. The only people who know that are the people in the room. The rest is biased speculation in the case of media sites and carefully filtered spin in the case of the EU site. The latter is not the unedited minutes of the meetings. The only time we'll know what the deal, or not, looks like, is when negotiations are complete and the two sides issue a joint communique signed by all parties.

Jack is desperately hoping that never happens.

At least with Jack I don't really think he believes brexit will be an absolute disaster, but I feel that Gill fears it will be the end of the World as she knows it.

You're braver than me John, l wouldn't dare assume what Gill thinks .......squeak! squeak!

Wrong again.

Feel what you like. But you know nothing about me

Too right Merv.

As I've said previously, my SIL is a senior Civil Servant currently at DexEu and all she can tell me is about the UK's preparations.
The actual negotiations will be drip fed to the public.
Ultimately, it will be whatever Martin Selmayr agrees to.
He is the power broker in Brussels and has an unhealthy hatred of all things British.
My fiver is still on no deal.

And there was I just trying to show a bit of empathy.

You should know by now John, women's minds work completely differently to us men....for whst its worth l though it was a nice gesture.......but please don't tell Gill I've said that... squeak squeak

That may be the case but just look what trouble towny has got himself into

I hate to tell you this, but 'empathy' is not making incorrect assumptions.

I think you are right about how minds work. From what I've seen on here, men just want to be the one who's right. The few women who post on here are more interested in the practicalities of day to day living when there's portaloos on the M20 and wondering what meals to make with rats and turnips when there's nothing in the shops. (BTW, the latter statement was a JOKE)

I have sampled guinea pig in Peru, so I imagine rat won't be any worse.
PS I don't think they will make you use the portaloos Gill.

I know a QC, and he's in touch with a senior civil servant. The civil servant has told him that, however bad it looks from the outside, it's actually worse on the inside

I think you are right about about no deal. I see that both Raab and Barnier are claiming progress made in talks today, but UK still haven't proposed a workable solution to the Irish border question. Raab says he wants a deal agreed before the EU summit on 17th October. As they haven't been able to sort out the Irish border in 2 years, I can't see a miracle happening in 6 weeks.
