Re: The Vindictive Nastiness if the EU

Excellent post Zaphod. I think you've covered all the salient points there.

It seems that 'our friends' across the Channel have discovered another way to get at us, or at least our ex-pats living in France!

We should 'repatriate' all the 'boat people' in return. We know exactly where they came from. Of course, we'd need a proper leader to do that.

"Another way to get at us"?

Force wealthy or educated working Brits to go back home and tell 'em to take all their money back home with them?
Ooh yes, that'll show 'em!

A typical Macron shot in his own foot, the pillock.

Le Penn's happy with him of course, because a recent French poll showed 43% see her winning April 2022's election as "probable" with another 5% as "certain".
Her time could well be nigh after many years of getting closer and closer.

There's nothing new in that story JBR. When I worked in Italy, I had to turn in my UK driving licence in exchange for an Italian one. That was in 1988. When I returned to the UK, I exchanged the Italian one for a UK licence. Easy peasy. All done FOC.

Good.
I assume that foreigners coming to this country have to perform a similar exchange.

Glad to hear it.

But what about deliveries of goods from the EU and vice versa?
That could complicate our trade with the EU.

Best to forget them and trade with everyone else!

Does that mean you will no longer buy new German cars then?


Or are you all "Do as I say, not as I do"?

And yet there are reams of pages in these very forums from a few individuals all grumbling about a little perceived pain regarding Brexit when proof of the tremendous gains just in lives saved thanks to a vaccine alone are obvious.
Go figure!
