Current Affairs EU In or Out

[degsy]

a handy guide to who proposed or was responsible for what in this crisis:

Fixed Term Parliament Act - Tories
calling Brexit Referendum - Tories
running both the Brexit Referendum campaigns - Tories
2017 General Election - Tories
Brexit Negotiations - Tories
the key MPs who blocked May's deal (three times), ruining the Government's negotiation strategy - Tories

Thanks for those. Yet they're still ahead in the polls.

In this whole Brexit thing, amongst the many causes, pitfalls, banana skins, faux pas (plural), missed opportunities etc. One has gone unremarked upon...or if it has I missed it...
This new fixed term Election thing, its the opposite of a wild card / get out of jail / advance directly to go collect £200 / joker, etc.
For one, It stops PMs calling, or for that matter, running a bluff...or in Mays case falling on your face
Whose bright idea was this?

Nick Clegg.....

Do you really think they will release that, we will have left the EU before that .........

Don't see why not. Not sure what the problem will be. It should just tell everyone how well prepared and how much we will excel post Brexit, won't it?

The Federation of German Industry has announced 'fears of a recession in Germany' after the economy contracted by 0.1pc in the second quarter and revised its annual growth forecast down from an earlier figure of 1pc. Keep up.

You can't trust a thing they say. You can't trust experts and forecasts...keep up.

At an EU trading with the world shindig, and they literally had gammon for breakfast, which made me smile.

You could just tell him to properly read the Wikipedia page he cut and paste from.

 

[Emlynsqueakyvoice]

Your perseverance is impressive tbh.

He hasn't been here for quite as long as us, this thread's made me bald.

No lost causes. I'm like the Stracqualursi of the thread...lots of hard work and commitment, but with ultimately little reward.
