CarefulFor my sins I have just read the Telegraph. Very poor, blinkered reporting. They're not only paying him but beating his drum at every opportunity. Poor journalism and I wonder what quid pro quo has been agreed

Hang on, didn't deceitful liars here say trade deals would take years????


"Aussie Trade Minister said that if UK had left with No Deal in March, we could have concluded negotiations on trade deal by end of this year.

The Australian Trade Minister, Simon Birmingham, has hinted at a quick trade deal with Brexit Britain that could be concluded by the end of the year, if the UK leaves the EU with No Deal"



Concluded by the end of year!


"Birmingham told the pro-EU Financial Times that: “If we face a No Deal scenario then we would be urging and encouraging the UK to negotiate and finalise an agreement as quickly as possible.

“I would absolutely hope that we would conclude negotiations this year.”
There has been strong support in Australia for Brexit Britain"


"Former Prime Minister Tony Abbott tweeted last month:“What217;s wrong with No Deal? Australia does $100 billion a year in trade with the EU without a deal.”

Spot on.

BBC would do 'very well' on a Netflix-style subscription model, chairman admits



Well if the BBC Chairman thinks it is entirely practical perhaps it is time.

Like many, I pay for Cable TV, Now TV, Amazon Prime and Netflix.
I wont pay for BBC, or associated channels that I do not watch nor have watched for many years.

That isn't creating a straw man argument, it's creating an eu wheat mountain man argument"

This was precisely my issue as he constantly engaged in such strawmen.
Had to filter him as it was tedious.

Minerve - "Collecting your pension at the post office tomorrow morning?"

@North South

"he was a fully-paid up member of the Labour Party while helping Princes William and Harry with their Maths and English. Royal tutor and Labour member? “Yes,” he laughs. “That’s the kind of Tory I am.”



From an interview in February, he still is a Labourite by his own admission

Of course if the likes of the mad remainer Bilderberg lot don't get what they want there is only one option left to them.


and it aint "Peace"!

"We'll save 440k in one year just on lowered eu wine bills."

Goody!

Maybe we can put that into research for how to reach 60MPH quicker from traffic lights!

DUH!

LOL

[minerve 2] 19/6/2019 09:49

I see the chimps are out in force this morning and why not?

Collecting your pension at the post office tomorrow morning?

LOL

[shy tott] 19/6/2019 09:46

Alp 864, wtf goes through your mind? Could you tell me the logic going from 'politics is lying' to 'all Brexit arguments are white as snow and all remain arguments are lies'.


That isn't creating a straw man argument, it's creating an eu wheat mountain man argument.

[shy tott] 19/6/2019 09:40

ctr, it's a cheap way of getting rid of Junker. We'll save 440k in one year just on lowered eu wine bills.

Isn't it nice to know what your £39billion is being spent on.

Feathering the nests of the EU elite !
Anger over £440,000 'golden goodbye' payments to EU top dogs Jean-Claude Juncker and Donald Tusk

[grahamite2] 19/6/2019 09:27

does that mean that all 'remain' arguments are lying

Who can say? We haven't actually heard any!

[grahamite2] 19/6/2019 09:25

Exactly Shy Tott.

We all know the traitor MPs would conspire to stop Boris if they could, but the Brexit Party has made that course dangerous for them. They need to be convinced of just what careful is saying - that Boris is bad, but he won't in practice be able to be all that bad.

[alphorn] 19/6/2019 09:22

A good example of what politics is all about (lying).

If we agree on that phrase does that mean that all 'remain' arguments are lying whilst all 'Exit' arguments are as white as snow?

That would be going down the road of mob rule?

[grahamite2] 19/6/2019 09:09

Indeed Max. As Sabrina Silversmith puts it, Rory Stewart is a non-story.

[careful] 19/6/2019 09:04

telegraph are desperate for Boris to win.
the anti Stewart article is in line with their campaign.


The fun really starts when he takes over.
The realities and limitations of power.

We sometimes forget that our dysfunctional parliament is collectively where most of the power lies.
Not with Boris.

[alphorn] 19/6/2019 09:01

Max #837. Do you and the uptickers believe that; on what basis?

You even say not ideal. Do you invest in shares that are not ideal? Of course you don't. Astounding to want something that is not ideal.

Off on my new scooter - perhaps I should trade it in against an NSU Quickly - not ideal but probably top of your list. ;))

That's the trouble with the leadership debate, no-one wants to fugg up their chances. It's just a game the media like to play.
