I've read the last few pages and o my. "What about brexit effecting the most vulnerable and poorest, kids won't be able to have a gap year in europe" "You people in the U.K. should not have voted, think of the people who haven't lived in the U.K. for years and decades and their second homes in Greece" "You people in the U.K. are selfish deciding to vote about your own futures in your own country" "our youngsters won't be able to work in europe, I don't care it is full of foreign countries people not in the eu, I'm not looking at those, I'm faux angry"
What will the Attorney General say today? Can the bumbler be persuasive enough? Much will also depend on what the DUP thinks. They seem like stand up reasonable chaps who will no doubt do the right thing.
Nope, go back, all of those words are there, I just put them all together in one post to show the hyspocriscy of them
There are no concessions, the backstop remains and still is largely dependent on the eu say no or yes to leaving Hours? Have you missed the last nearly 3 years? The vote was to leave, most people know/knew what leave means. From the vote in 2016 it has been nothing other than remainers trying to stop it. These maybe the last hours of the leaving proposals but mp's have had nearly 3 years to deal with this.
A really important day for the UK and all our futures. I'm really feeling the absolute importance of the vote tonight and it seems to be on a knife edge with the DUP/ERG being the decisive factor tonight. Fingers crossed and I'll be having a couple of beers tonight. Let us hope we get it over the line and can start to heal the split in the country. I would still prefer the stronger trade negotiation position that a no deal exit would bring but am resigned to that not happening. If we accept the WA the trade negotiations will be painful. Let's hope the May MEP elections bring about some much needed changes in the EU.
It will be interesting to see if Cox’s demands made over the last week for what amounted to a "unilateral exit mechanism from the backstop." were really just a request for a side letter - which in itself is not even legally binding.
This is still the chequers deal with some legal finery which runs along the lines of , you can say what you think and we can say what we think but we both know the eu controls the next 2 years. It's guilding the lilly or putting lipstick on a pig Some have forgotten that even if she gets the chequers deal through, there is still the 2 years transition period during which time we still have to discuss our future arrangements. From experience, extreme remainers will still see that as they still have 2 years to stop brexit. I can't see todays vote bringing any side together but still expect it to not go through
Legal protection = guaranteed arbitration to determine whether the UK can end the backstop. Oh. Dear. Goat. Almighty. I am currently laughed-out thanks to my good friends in Speakers Corner but when I get my breath back, I can almost guarantee cracked ribs by the end of today. "Arbitration", FFS!
Help me out. I started with the first one ... "What about brexit effecting the most vulnerable and poorest, kids won't be able to have a gap year in europe" ... and couldn't find it. Should you have said "all of those words are there, I just assembled them into a new made-up sentence which nobody actually ever wrote on here" ?????
If there is a recession for five years, the UK will rejoin the EU. BTW according to Peter Grant MP "Leader of DUP ( not an MP, not a govt minister) and leaders of ERG were briefed in advance on tonight’s statement. I asked @DLidington if leaders of national govts of Scotland & Wales were also briefed. He refused to answer." Surely that should not be the case.
