https://uk.yahoo.com/news/eu-ministers-baffled-frustrated-latest-111906437.html Well just asking for an extension sounded too easy. They're suggesting a general election or referendum as a condition of agreeing. TB
May should have had her deal voted upon in December, leaving three months to resolve "problems" or regroup and change arguement.
i'm sure they are all posturing as they have Junkers job becoming available soon too It does rather prove most brexiteers point. In a non accountable eu, run by largely people who real people will never be able to vote out, supported by governments who are prepared to over turn their own peoples majority democratic votes and mandates and if required, will continue to subjugate those votes into voting again and again till the eu gets the answer they want, at what point do you think what the eu offers, is democratic? As an aside and another foreign newspaper media source and not just our own, France's Le Monde. When we have mentioned how French farmers are largely supported by cap payments and food prices are artificially high to protect French farming, Le Monde explains it quite well in today's edition In 2017, France paid about € 16.25 billion and received € 13.5 billion, of which € 9.2 billion under the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP). According to data from the European Commission, https://www.lemonde.fr/les-decodeur...n-europeenne-a-la-france_5438283_4355770.html
Our best hope is that one or more of the remaining 27 negotiators says 'non' to an article 50 extension.* Theresa May delays any votes until the last minute and then just when the remoaners think they've won...... she dissolves parliament. ..... tick tock and we are out. .... glorious WTO here we come. May be the Prime Minister always was a Brexiter in remoaners clothing? *It would be a clear indication that the EU is undemocratic if they managed to get all 27 to immediately agree to the extension. PS Having artificial high food prices to protect EU farmers costs the poor disproportionately more than the better off..... Some people are so blinkered that they can't see this.
we get well over 4bill. dont you want to protect our farmers, rural economy's and the cottage industries that feed from it? i wonder how Le Pen will replace that. we give 17bill a year to the EU, lets give to our farmers instead?
Did anyone hear Anna Sourbry on Radio 4 this morning ? I'm sure she said no deal brexit would be disastrous for her 'friends' in business.
Well, what’s the point of representing your plebs if you can’t look after your ‘friends’ business interests?
That prompted me to have a look about and I found this https://www.electoralcommission.org...endums/campaign-spending-at-the-eu-referendum Looking at the table by political party - there was a lot more spent on the remain campaign, tax payers money ?
The idea all of those who wanted remain, supported by many eu governments and multinationals spent less, in trying to stop Brexit than the largely peoples vote who voted for it, is fanciful nonsense.
