We should merely be putting in as much if not more effort into alliances with our nearest neighbouring European countries. There has been a definite lack of engagement. You cannot expect to have a good relationship if you don't make much effort and expect them to do our bidding.

By the way, did you give Sloach proof of your statement as he requested? thought not!!!! Just like your drivel over the countries queuing up (other than those we already deal with) to do free trade deals with us.
And you have the nerve to accuse me of telling lies.
Anyway I hope they come for you soon and can find out whats wrong.
a) You're rattled by my posts
b) You've lost the argument.
Btw, still waiting for you to provide us with the list of those countries who have categorically stated they will not under any circumstances do a trade deal with the UK.
C'mon , pal, put your money where your mouth is ....
Tick Tock............

You do not ignore the commonwealth, there is (substantial) trade already. Increasing it will the challange. There are three economies of interest, Canada, which is totally oriented on Usa, Australia and New Zealand, fixed on China and India. If you look at it seriously, there is no room for expansion, either way.
Different Peoples, cultures, currencies, languages, learning about all the little quirks and idiosycrancies of the wonderful, fascinating and diverse nations and societies that existed there.
Now Europe is a boring , bland, grey, homogonous gloop of sameness . It's Magnolia!
Your last paragraph is bollox!

We are badly led and betrayed by political donkeys on all sides.
I've been thinking that since at least Salzburg and it means everyone is free to play the tough Statesman to their domestic audience . Everything Varadker says is designed to undermine the DUP position, nothing to do with what's best for Eire.
Then at the latest moment possible bring home a deal that totally pleases very few but will be better than no deal.

Bollox eh? just read what your parliament knows and is acting upon . You notice I don't say anything about the credibility? Gives you an opportunity to continue on your fiddling.

Nothing has been accepted yet, quite a few hurdles to jump.
Arrogant EU think they can overturn democracy, raise the Fyrd.

Re: Not going too well for Brexit!!!
Clever May! To be elected PM after the referendum. A majority, among which leave voters, backs May up in her negotiations with the EU.In the end you will have to accept, leave or be thrown out.
You voted to leave.The EU is not keeping you back. Pay your bills and good luck to you.

Then we'll happily pay them their pittance and crack on............I'm not convinced we'll need the luck you are offering.
