Current Affairs EU In or Out

[peteblue]

As Obama said
When trade deals are being handed out in Washington ,Britain will be at the back of the queue

or as the current President says, we will be at the front......hmmm the previous or the current......

If by opening it you mean rolling it back to an older version that Johnson has already said he'd be crazy to want, then yes. You're easily hoodwinked Pete.

I would have thought you would be happy then Bruce....a softer Brexit.....

pete isn't hoodwinked, he just wants to see the UK (or England, really) as a part of the US

 

[peteblue]

Oh no it won't. Your country will eventually become a vassal state, a colony of the USA.

Fair enough, I could live with that.....

 

[tsubaki]

so are you for it or against it.....

Against it. Why are you for this abject surrender again?

 

[peteblue]

I read that as if your batteries were running out as you typed.

I think you didn’t read it...

It's not softer as very little of substance has even been discussed yet. You're talking like this is the end of the story.

Don't talk about a surrender when you and your ilk supported the Benn act....

 

[tsubaki]

Don't talk about a surrender when you and your ilk supported the Benn act....

Benn Act: British Parliament told the British Prime Minister to do something, in Britain
Boris Deal: EU Official tells British official to do something, in Britain

one of these things sounds a lot more like surrender than the other

Whatever hope UK has with a different US regime, if you believe the most Protectionist US President is going to happily agree to have UK exports compete in large numbers with good ol' American products well I admire your optimism....blind though it seems to be.

£289Billion UK exports went to EU in 2018. That is 40% of UK exports.

‘The lady’ about Bonnie Greer - come on, be better than that.
And Ireland has had enough done to it by the UK that it can at least own up to it. It’s the reason there’s a current threat to its peace.

the only threat to its peace comes from within, no one else is attacking it.....

pete isn't hoodwinked, he just wants to see the UK (or England, really) as a part of the US

I‘ve said before I would rather that then being part of the EU.....no apologies from me....

we can but try.....

Yes, I know - its hard to see how that isn't treasonous, but still.

 

[Charlie Sweet]

It’s not a competition. Brexit will soon be over, time moves on, the EU did not throw you under a bus and that’s great, but your time in the limelight will now cease.

The deal Boris has done will keep the USA happy so there is no problem.....

I dont want the limelight. I just expect an ounce of respect!
