Plea to fellow remainers: don’t get bitter, get smart. This is a really hard blow on Johnson and Gove and it can knock something off that ridiculous lead he has in the polls. DC has kept his counsel for 3 years and what he now says and the timing he has chosen is all the more powerful.

When we voted to join the EEC and then gradually got sucked into the EU political union, no-one told us then that if we ever wanted to leave it would be very difficult, and challenging for our constitution lol. We weren't made aware of the facts then and could not make an informed decision but it didn't stop it happening. LEAVE and WTO.

It was a bent referendum and a disgraceful campaign of misinformation, with Leave breaking electoral law.

Boris Johnson and others lied and lied again.

Shall I go on?

PPI fraud was undertaken by the banks with Undisclosed commissions of upto 85% of premiums. They got off lightly.

"Why we are paying a billion a month to buy their produce is beyond me."

Yes, it is beyond you!

LOL

Give up trying to compute!

[tygarreg] 15/9/2019 16:25

Exactly my thoughts K38. Leaving with no deal would get those wanting to sell to the UK market around the table immediately. We are the 5th biggest economy in the world. We probably buy more manufactured goods than the 4 economies above us. BMW, Audi, Fiat, Merc, Renault, Peugeot, Citroen, wines, foods, EU tourism all need us desperately. Why we are paying a billion a month to buy their produce is beyond me.

Reply?Peter WoodPosted September 15, 2019 at 5:18 am | PermalinkGood Morning,Sir John, your penultimate paragraph needs to answer the question why does the EU not allow us to leave amicably? We are 'reluctant Europeans' according to JC Junker, so the logic is to have us leave but remain friends. The EU bureaucracy seems not to want this. Surely there is one reason; we pay! We pay net, far more than France who has a similar size economy, and we 'pay' an enormous budget deficit for goods, many of which we could probably get cheaper elsewhere if we didn't have to enforce EU tariffs.?BWPosted September 15, 2019 at 8:30 am | PermalinkThe main reason is not financial. It is political. The EU simply cannot afford under any circumstances for Britain to succeed outside the EU as this will lead to others leaving. That is why the WA was written by the EU so as to maximise their control for as long as possible. As was said, no nation has signed such a document as the WA unless they had lost a war.

It's paradoxical, but the only way to get a new deal might be by choosing no deal as a temporary first step.The EU has no reason to change its negotiating position unless the facts change. If the UK left without a deal, and managed to survive that process with only moderate disruption, then that would be a big new fact.Then after a period of stability, the UK could re-commence negotiations with the EU on a new and more equal footing. The EU's leverage would be reduced as Britain would have a workable and proven alternative. Britain would not be under pressure to agree a deal at any cost.

From the Guardian

"The latest poll shows the Tories on 37%, up two since last week, while Labour is unchanged on 25%. The Liberal Democrats whose conference opens this weekend in Bournemouth are on 16% (down one), and the Brexit party is also unchanged on 13%."

Big Mouth Jo and her motley crew doing well then.
