How do we get these useless leaders? Come back Maggie or import Donald Trump.
Olly Robins told how it was going to be weeks ago.The Brits have been conned again.

Here we go, from LauraK.

So... PM will give Commons the chance to slam brakes on Brexit, if her deal is rejected - but she is still clear that she doesn't want a delay herself - in a sense she is giving into Cooper-letwin before it has a change to be approved.

I think TMs blackmail, 'vote on my deal or no deal' is worse than extend a50.Extending a50 will give people more confidence to support a no deal Brexit. People are fed up with the cowards and undemocratic MPs .

[martinfrench] 26/2/2019 12:24

so are you an economist then Minerve?

[polar fox] 26/2/2019 12:22

Let's see how accurate this tweet is:

Here's what I'm hearing from Cabinet, which is still ongoing:

The PM has said there will be a three line whip on an amendable motion *tomorrow* that will commit to TWO votes on March 12th in the event that her deal fails

One will be on no deal, the other will on extending A50.

"You can be whatever you want to be on a BB."

It is wholly pointless to enquire.

Therefore we must judge people on their words. Cheshire Pete is always cogent, always reasonable, and that's true whether he's duke or dustman.

[minerve] 26/2/2019 12:03

So we can assume Cheshire Scat is a country bumpkin!

Would anyone listen to a country bumpkin about world trade, business and economics?

[minerve] 26/2/2019 12:00

Scaredy cat, dirty rat. LOL

"What's it to you Minerve whether I'm a country bumpkin or a former high flier? My views are my views. You seem to have an obsession with what people have achieved or what their status was or is. Lack of self worth or esteem perhaps?"





Because unfortunately, the internet, like Brexit, gives voice and power to those who don't deserve it, haven't earn't it and are rather bad custodians of it.

We might as well make the village idiot the PM. Oh sorry, she already is.

Corbyn now facing his own front bench revolt over his support for a second referendum!

[mikemichael2] 26/2/2019 11:50

Brexit in any form will 'inflict significant harm on NHS'

Any form of Brexit will inflict "significant harm" on the NHS but leaving without a deal is the worst possible option, damning new research has found.
The availability of medicines and vaccines, the healthcare workforce, NHS financing and access to medical research would all be negatively impacted by a no-deal Brexit, the study showed.
Authors of the review published in medical journal The Lancet warned "little evidence exists that the UK is prepared for any of the eventualities” of Britian's departure from the bloc.
The report added: "For instance, the recently published NHS 10-year plan ran to 136 pages, with only two mentions of Brexit, neither of which offered any detail about what it might mean or how any threats would be addressed."

Four Brexit scenarios were analysed by the authors, including a no-deal outcome in which Britain leaves the EU on March 29, which was considered to have the most major drawbacks but also the only positive outcome when compared with other options.
These were the Withdrawal Agreement, including a transition agreement until the end of 2020, the Northern Ireland backstop and the Political Declaration on the post-Brexit relationship between the UK and EU.

The authors suggested the one positive of a no-deal Brexit was that NHS England would no longer be in the "perceived shadow" of EU competition and procurement law, which the academics said were believed to be behind some health service inefficiencies.
Co-author Professor Martin McKee from the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, said: "Some people will dismiss our analysis as 'Project Fear'.
"But with just over a month to go to Brexit, we need to move beyond slogans.

"We have set out the problems in detail, based on the best available evidence. If others disagree, then they owe it to the British people to say why.
"It just isn't good enough to keep saying that 'something will work out' without any details of exactly how."

Remaining in the EU was not included in the analysis but a paper published in the journal by the same authors in 2017 suggested it would be better for health than any form of Brexit.
The proposed £30,000 salary threshold in the Immigration White Paper would "seriously limit" immigration of health workers to the UK and there are no provisions for health care workers under either the backstop or Political Declaration Brexit agreements, according to the analysis.

The Withdrawal Agreement provides reciprocal health arrangements via the European Health Insurance Card and mutual recognition of professional qualifications up to 2020 but under no-deal this would cease in 2019.

The "continuity of legal provisions" under the Withdrawal Agreement would also secure supply chains for medicines, vaccines and medical equipment until 2020 but a no-deal Brexit would have "an immediate and drastic effect"on NHS provisions, according to the report.

The loss of access to funding for NHS infrastructure projects from the European Investment Bank would negatively impact the health service in all scenarios, it added.
The authors also argued all scenarios would make the UK less attractive to the pharmaceutical industry as it would no longer be a member of the European Medicines Agency.
This would mean treatments could be launched up to 24 months later than they otherwise might, the study suggested.
Any form of Brexit would also harm the UK's global standing in health and "there is concern that the UK might use Brexit" to roll back European measures on air pollution, workplace health and safety and tobacco, the report added.

Health minister Stephen Hammond said the Department of Health and Social Care had analysed the supply chains of 12,300 medicines.
"While we never give guarantees, we are confident that, if everyone - including suppliers, freight companies, international partners and the health and care system - does what they need to do, the supply of medicines and medical products should be uninterrupted in the event of exiting the EU without a deal," he said.

I believe him..

The submarine is timed to address the HoC around 12.30. Submarines are designed to make sharp U-turns!

What's it to you Minerve whether I'm a country bumpkin or a former high flier? My views are my views. You seem to have an obsession with what people have achieved or what their status was or is. Lack of self worth or esteem perhaps?

I think it's more like 500m new shares per year.

[smartypants] 26/2/2019 11:23

Issuing 104 mil new shares for there "bonus" scheme's ….. that they can then buy back with "your" not paid out in dividend, money...
I am sure they deserve it, the stock has performed brilliantly over the last year..2 years..3...5..?
75p by Christmas.

[minerve] 26/2/2019 11:16

This thread is becoming embarrassing. I can actually feel my brain cells die when I come to this thread.

cheshire, I think it is important you tell us what you've achieved in life. If you have done NOTHING and achieved very little it hardly shows someone who is astute and clever.

Come on spill the beans you coward.

[xxxxxy] 26/2/2019 11:12

Smell the coffee
Smell the danger.
Smell the putrefying EUSSR

LEAVE and WTO

[cheshire pete] 26/2/2019 10:58

I don't think so maxk, think he's above that sort of thing. If the Brexit process is prolonged or stopped altogether then I think Farage and his Brexit Party are the only hope for the country. We cannot lose this fight against the EU as we will be under the EU jackboot forever until we are left in the same state as the 'SunMed' countries are now. EU is all about German and French domination.

[xxxxxy] 26/2/2019 10:55

Register with Brexit Party. Could be Revolution without the bullets.

Love and Peace.

Pass it on
