spot on analysis graham.

but the tories ,it seems ,cant looks round corners.. Very large female hookers,or props, to be employed at every tory bash....would save an awful lot of anguish.. but that is commonsense and the tories do not do that..Oh no!!

It was an automatic event in March.

Very true. So why didn't it happen? Because the UK government took steps to stop it happening and the EU agreed to their request.

For Parliament to "not allow" it to happen in October, they will have to force the government to make a similar application as last time, and they could only do this by legislation. How could such legislation be worded? If it just said the government "must do a deal" it would be meaningless. And what penalties would be prescribed for non-performance? Against what individuals?

The whole idea's a complete non-starter. And that's before even considering the fact the EU must agree, and Parliament can't force them to do anything whatever.

More expert than you armchair wet noodles.

[grahamite2] 21/6/2019 16:33

Experts are of the belief

Yeah right.

I was an automatic event in March.
There is no such thing as an automatic event.
Stop clutching desperately at straws.

Automatic is just one vote away from being cancelled.
It is called democracy.

Democracy;
The only vote that matters is the most recent one.
It is a legal principal.
Try to understand it.

If it helps you to try think of a Will.
Which Will is the one that matters?
The one written 3 years ago, or the most recent one.

Suck on that over the weekend. 🦸‍a94;️

Experts are of the belief Remain is still more likely than No Deal.

[alphorn] 21/6/2019 16:09

Parliament will not allow no deal.
Renegotiation seems unlikely.

………;……a one way bet, as I doubt No Deal is off the table, BUT be very nimble to get out when (likely) it turns.

Lets

Get OUT of the EUSSR

[gotnorolex] 21/6/2019 16:06

Back in again @ 58.15 ;~)

[xxxxxy] 21/6/2019 16:05

The EUSSR is not worth spitting on.

LEAVE and WTO

And save 39billion for the British people.

LEAVE and LEAVE and LEAVE

[xxxxxy] 21/6/2019 16:03

LEAVE and WTO

The media & Remain MPs are stuck in their own rhetorical canyon, ignoring the wider public & trying to prevent intelligent debate about the opportunities once liberated from the EU. I've never once heard the BBC ask a Remain MP why they want to give away £39bn we don't owe.

[grahamite2] 21/6/2019 16:01

Parliament will not allow no deal.

Remainers are clinging to this like a drunk clinging to a lamppost.

But it's ridiculous. It's like saying Parliament will not allow the sun to rise tomorrow.

What are they going to do about it? It's an automatic event.

[careful] 21/6/2019 15:47

The EU. will be thinking this lot out also.
There are two players in this game.

The EU. know that the Lib Dems and greens are high in the polls.
The SNP are pro EU.
The Tories are split.
Labour is drifting towards a second vote.

The EU. do not want the UK to leave.
Things become clearer if you try to work out what you would do in their position.

All to play for, this game is not over yet.

[grahamite2] 21/6/2019 15:46

How much difference does it make? Since Mrs Liar nobody will take a claim to be pro-leave at face value. Hunt is a remainer and everyone knows it.

This is the choice that needed to be offered to the wider membership and it has been.

[careful] 21/6/2019 15:41

Boris may have a second referendum as his plan B.
He will have to do something if he fails to get out on time, and a general election could be a disaster.

Difficult to see what else he could do.

Parliament will not allow no deal.
Renegotiation seems unlikely.
As he said, the Tories will be crushed in an election if they do not deliver.

here is a real "investment" tip
Sell every investment you have...now, no matter what the current price..back in to cash.
Exchange your sick/poorly Great British pounds in to throbbing Euros today..what ever the rate is now
After the 31st Oct, the UK crashes out of the EU and on to its knees.
Then simply choose when to exchange the good international currency back in to your islands pounds shillings and farthins, and enjoy a min 10% increase to your wad!
You will still be able to buy back in to your investments (if you are fool enough) any time in the next 2 years at the same or lower price
Quids in as you Brits say.
Or, play the same game with $US and profit from a few hundred thousand souls loosing their lives in Iran over the next 5 years..?
Hey, why let the yanks have all the fun...join in the party!

Jeremy Hunt is coming out of the closet whether he likes it or not..

[smartypants] 21/6/2019 15:17

Hey...
Might be a good time to "buy a few more"?
I mean the price is down (is it less than 58.85p?), and just before weekend is always a good move.
You can garantee that there is absolutely no way that the US-Iran thing will escalate over the weekend and impact stocks/markets..the world....come Monday morning

[alphorn] 21/6/2019 14:22

Cheshire - GBP continues its decline today. But don't worry according to you all is hunky dory. ;))

[alphorn] 21/6/2019 14:21

"The only variable is the EU in steady decline...…230;……"

Really Cheshire - do you follow the data points (eg this morning's) or some media rag?
Today's data points tell the opposite - but dream on and perhaps get 25 upticks.

[hernando2] 21/6/2019 14:15

Strange when i was working, my friends and I had a business, we employed about 100 at our peak but for almost 20 years a core of around 20. We paid 15% above the going rate.

Between us , our people and corporation tax we paid many millions in tax.

used to be the backbone of the country, now relegated to nutters

funny old life.

[hernando2] 21/6/2019 14:09

Most young people want Corbyn...so that is mainly the remain vote...cake and eat it as the EU says
