Brussels chaos: Spain followsPoland in shock threat to quit EU 'No more humiliation!'
THERE is mounting pressure in Spain for right-wing parties to back a Brexit-style departure from the EU, following widespread fury across the country at a ruling by the European Court of Justice (ECJ).



So long, been nice to know you!

"the same level of protection guaranteed by the European Union"
Boris Johnson's newly won supporters are demanding that he protect workers’ rights and put an end to zero-hours contracts, according to a survey by the Trades Union Congress.
Blue-collar voters in Labour heartlands, especially in northern England, helped the Conservatives to sweep to victory this month.
The TUC found that the majority of workers, including those who recently switched from Labour to the Tories, wanted the same level of protection guaranteed by the European Union, a £10 minimum wage and higher tax rates for top earners.

Does this mean that works won't have the same level of protection once the UK does leave the EU??
A light bulb moment?

Labour leadership frontrunner Rebecca Long-Bailey said she would like to rule party with 'iron fist'

The frontrunner in the race to replace Jeremy Corbyn as Labour leader once said she would like to rule the party with an “iron fist”, The Telegraph can reveal.

Rebecca Long-Bailey has the support of Jon Lansman, Momentum chief, and Len McCluskey, head of the Unite union, and is viewed as the hard-left “continuity Corbyn” option for Labour members.

In an interview with independent website the Salford Star before her election as an MP in 2015, Ms Long-Bailey said she had no control over other members when presented with criticism of her predecessors, Ian Stewart and Hazel Blears.

“I can't rule it with an iron fist, much as I'd love to,” she said.

She has, arguably, made it worse for herself by telling the authorities she would not flee before then doing exactly that and by private jet. From what we know she made a terrible mistake which the courts may have treated fairly. This may not be the case now. What a foolish woman.

SP hovered at just above 62p, then a 1p share was posted, then it fell through support. The market is rigged!!!

The American that killed that lad should never have left the Country. She was a coward to run away and hide behind DI. Forget the "rules" on this one, its about common decency, respect for the guy who died, his family, who's suffering has been made worse.

She made a mistake, it could happen to anyone, I have done it a couple of times myself when abroad, just a lack of concentration for a second. It's not the accident she is getting grief for, as bad as that was, it's her actions after.

Spaxit could change some of the rationale there. Toss up between Spaxit and Poxit currently. Polxit if preferred.

Our UnionBy JOHNREDWOOD | Published: DECEMBER 23, 2019I would like the Union of the United Kingdom to stay together. I only want volunteers in our Union.I thought it right for the UK Parliament to grant Scotland an Independence  referendum given the strength of feeling for independence in Scotland in 2014 and the successful political campaigning of the SNP. Before the vote I pledged that I would respect the result whichever way it went, and would in good faith have worked with my colleagues to secure as  smooth an exit as possible for  Scotland from the UK if they wanted to leave. The SNP for their part said they too would accept the verdict. All bought into the phrase the vote would be a once in a generation opportunity to decide Scotland's future. We also all agreed only Scottish voters would vote.Today the SNP are trying to renege on all those promises. They now say they want an early second referendum on the same subject. They see no need to accept the last verdict as they claim there has been a material change of circumstance.Their immediate argument is that as they won a majority of seats from Scotland in the UK Parliament on a ticket for independence it means opinion has shifted in Scotland so they should be able to try again. Yet in the last General election the SNP, the one party proposing independence, got 45% of the vote. This is exactly the same percentage as voted to leave the UK in the referendum. This is scarcely evidence of a major shift in Scottish opinion.Their other argument is Scotland voted to remain in the EU, so it should be allowed a vote to leave the UK to try and rejoin the EU. This is a curious argument, as Scotland voted to stay in the UK and part of staying in the UK was the acceptance that a decision like membership of the EU was clearly a decision for the whole UK, not a decision for parts of the UK to make differently.It is also difficult  to understand how they think it would work. The EU under Spanish influence would not be keen to foster independence movements within member states by offering Scotland, Catalonia, Padania and others easy entry into the EU as they left the UK, Spain, Italy and others. Presumably it would entail joining the Euro which the SNP have always been reluctant to propose.The SNP are not believers in full independence. In the referendum they wished to stay in the UK currency union and remain with the Queen. The muddle at the heart of their campaign remains. Are they really just wanting devo max or do they eventually want to be properly independent? How does that square with being a small member of the EU if the EU would have them?If I were a Scottish or English campaigner for independence I would want my country to have its own currency and not to be locked into the EU and Euro. That after all was what the UK referendum was all about, where I did campaign for my country, the UK, to be properly independent.
