I suppose that they're so used to dictating to and threatening their member states that they are unable to do anything else.
I hope the rest of the world is watching. The EU are going to have no friends left, assuming that they still have any now!

Leave right now. No more payments for a 'transition period' which will achieve nothing. They will give nothing, but take our continued payments.
Instead of hoping to obtain some sort of equitable agreement with the EU at the end of 2020, which I am sure is not going to happen, we should be putting all our efforts into making trade agreements with the rest of the world.
It would also serve as a lesson to other EU states which are thinking again about their membership: the sooner you are out, the sooner you will benefit from your freedom.

Too many accidents are caused by EU plated trucks that are driven by p1ssed unqualified drivers from Poland, Spain, Portugal etc.

He was reported by another driver.
and they continue to drive their lorries up and down our motorways unhindered.
That's going to change soon
