We can spout all the BS we want whilst negotiating. Once we leave we can do whatever we want.

Listening to all those snowflakes on the news, bemoaning how worried they are about the government taking powers back from the EU in what they claim is a power grab!!
It's such hypocrisy it makes me larf! Where were they all when the EU took thousands of our laws without a by-your-leave? not one of them opened their big mouths then did they? there were no worried politicans eager to be seen on our screens claiming a power grab by a foreign body, apart from just one loyal person. Nigel Farrage.

You may well mock him, but to me he had more honesty in his little finger about what was happening to us than these morons who are now more worried about their own interests than the well-being of the people.

Therein lies the problem. I shall say no more out of politeness.

There is the crux of the matter: we can do whatever we want. How we ever signed that away I cannot understand. It was like Clement Attlee signing away our freedom to Hitler. Thank God more sensible minds prevailed then.

And Nigel Farage. I am sure that, although he comes in for a great deal of unfounded criticism and derision these days, I believe that in the future, hopefully even within my lifetime, wise counsels will prevail and people will at last see that he was instrumental in obtaining our independence once again. No wonder he has chosen to look for pastures new, when the people he has been fighting for have turned their backs on him. We don't deserve him.

Hi

If we were ready to leave, then yes.

However we are not and hence having to ask nicely for a Transition Deal.

Transition Deals mean we will have to pay the EU.

We are not negotiating from a position on strength, we are having to ask for a favour.

Theresa May has been invited to address the EU Parliament in Open Session.

She has declined, she wants instead to address them in private.

Re: No Deal is better than a Bad Deal.

After hearing it yesterday I think she made the right decision, where do they get off talking about our politicians like that ! Unstable indeed, he looked more stable and certainly more professional than the twit calling him unstable !

Re: No Deal is better than a Bad Deal.

Hi

Maggie went and spoke to them direct, so did others.

To my mind, not going is a sign of weakness.

As far as insults are concerned, we are no different to them.

It is a pity we do not have grown ups on both sides.

Shame that we had so called "grown ups" that got us into this mess by voting to leave.
