yes, if you believe that you are. there are only red and blue torys in the uk. you wouldn't vote for anything else. they know their audience.
Mr Tusk doesn’t seem to be a very agreeable person. Donald Tusk: Boris Johnson will not want to go down in history as 'Mr No Deal' http://news.sky.com/story/donald-tu...-to-go-down-in-history-as-mr-no-deal-11792723
After discussions with Cameron, May and Johnson there’s still not an agreement. Has Donald Tusk considered that he may be the problem as Mr No Deal?
No, I just understand that there are only two things which motivate people. I find it interesting to observe people’s reactions It’s an open forum.
Brexit: Boris Johnson hits back at Donald Tusk over 'Mr No Deal' claim http://news.sky.com/story/donald-tu...-to-go-down-in-history-as-mr-no-deal-11792723 Perhaps put them in a ring to sort out who really is ‘Mr No Deal Brexit’
Fin's right, all members of the EU agreed what the minimum rate of vat would be so as to have a level playing field across the EU. Therefore 'we are they' despite what some sectors of the UK press might have you believe. @J biker is also right, if the UK Govt post Brexit decides to change the rates of VAT or remove them altogether, they can do so but the loss in revenue will have to be made up from somewhere else. Once Govt's apply a tax and are used to the revenue they never ever remove it
Boris Johnson warns Trump US must compromise to get UK trade deal https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-49462613 And how does BoJo think he’ll get a protectionist, narcissistic baby to do that then?
https://news.sky.com/story/we-will-have-very-a-big-trade-deal-with-uk-says-trump-at-g7-11793653 SKY seem more positive about the Johnson / Trump meeting.
Watching Trump and Johnson talking on SKY news seems they are in agreement, could it possibly be a step in the right direction.
Offering an example of a restriction, Mr Johnson said: "Melton Mowbray pork pies, which are sold in Thailand and in Iceland, are currently unable to enter the US market because of, I don't know, some sort of food and drug administration restriction." He continued: "UK bell peppers cannot get into the US market at all. "Wine shipments are heavily restricted. If you want to export wine made in England to the US you have to go through a US distributor. "There is a tax on British micro-breweries in the US that doesn't apply to US micro-breweries in the UK." . a fine example of an English centric PM. melton mowbry, english wine. british bell peppers and british micro breweries. we are a major supplier of bell peppers and chilies, 70% of Gin in the uk is produced up here and mostly from micro breweries not to mention beers (big duty) no mention of salmon or haggis. both iconic Scottish produce with big sales around the globe. food labeling is a big deal and become quite a contentious subject up here since brexit. developing the brand has been a big success, driven massive growth in the food and drink industries in Scotland over the last few years. if i'm pushed or it starts raining later i will dig out the footage of American producers lobbying the US Gov for access to produce Scottish produce under license. call me a cynic, a vile cybernat ect. but history tells us what the UK Gov will sell out on for the "Greater Good". Ram yer brexit.
yes Allan, because the melton mowbery and english wine would be the first thing in a PM mind when giving examples of the food and drink industries. especially as our food and dink industry is only worth 14bill annually. salmon (banned in the US) whisky and Gin being big contributors. the stuff they want access to produce under license. . The food and drink industry is a major contributor to Scotland’s economy. It is worth around £14 billion each year and accounts for one in five manufacturing jobs. Scotland has 18,850 food and drink businesses, which employ around 115,400 people.
