Minerve 2 27 Jan '20 - 10:47 - 290764 of 290775

Let us forget what freedoms have been lost to travel, work and live freely within the EU.

The freedom to travel freely in the EU has not been lost at all. The 16 year olds remain was so keen to give the vote to might believe such nonsense, but most of the readers here know it's nonsense - for the simple reason we travelled freely in the EU area before the UK even joined.

As to working and living there, it is a tiny minority of Britons who speak a foreign language well enough to get a job as a dustman. The number who speak a foreign language well enough to get professional work is tinier still, and these exceptional individuals will be able to find work anywhere on earth.

This is just yet more Project Fear drivel.

London has surrendered its position as the world’s top financial centre to New York due in part to uncertainty over Brexit, according to a survey of senior financial services executives.

London suffered a 19 percentage point decline as just over one-third of executives said they would choose the UK’s capital — down from 53 per cent in 2018.




Oh dear, well done gammons!


ROFLMAO!

"Amazing how Remain lost with the full weight of the BBC behind it as one commentator put it...."

The BBC is no match for Russia, the US and Rupert Murdoch empire old boy! ;)

Besides, the gammons are The Express brain washed.

Amazing how Remain lost with the full weight of the BBC behind it as one commentator put it....

'The BBC were obsessed with having to have equal billing to both sides of the argument, youd have the IMF for remain balanced by a crackpot economist or youd have a remain ftse100 CEO pitted against someone who makes a couple of prams in Sheffield for leave. It was balanced in terms of coverage but not in term of quality of people',

Varadkar is absolutely right, and if I was the EU I wouldn't be too worried about US trade with the UK. Time to let the UK realise where it sits in the pecking order. An injection of reality is well overdue, the pain will be a good learning process and thoroughly deserved by the gammons IMO.

I'm OK Jack, I'm a millionaire.

Popcorn ready to watch the gammons suffer - which I hope they do. I hope the auto industry gets decimated.

Boris Johnson has revealed his bold new vision for Brexit Britain, with plans for trade deals around the world by the end of the year. The decision to press ahead with trade talks with the US, Japan, Australia and New Zealand underlines the Prime Minister's vision for a Global Britain. But the move to access international markets worth almost £50trillion is a slap in the face for the EU – which wanted talks to be solely focused on Brussels. With Chancellor Sajid Javid confirming the UK will not agree to demands that Britain aligns with EU regulations, the prospect of a trade deal with the US will put pressure on Brussels to compromise. The major reshaping of British foreign policy also includes efforts to boost trade with Africa. On the post Brexit trade talks, a Downing Street source said: "Downing Street will begin trade deal talks with the USA at the same time as negotiations get underway with the EU. "The Prime Minister has tasked trade negotiators at the Department for International Trade to start discussions with countries including Japan, New Zealand and Australia, alongside the USA." It is also understood the Prime Minister will be making a set-piece speech in early February to set out his plans for life after Brexit in the UK. – Sunday ExpressBrexit Central

Childish. That immaturity is a problem for all.Varisomething.

Varadkar clearly doesn't comprehend the difference between quality and quantity.

“So if these were two teams up against each other playing football, who do you think has the stronger team?"

Carefuls post quoting David Smith yesterday illustrated how remain continue to persue the tack of wheeling out the big guns & so called 'experts' to influence public opinion, as though the electorate were incapable of any form of critical thinking. This excellent video of Dom Cummings explaining how the referendum was won touches on the contempt from certain quarters of the Tory Party namely the metropolitan Oxbridge Cameron & Osbourne set. If you've not seen it yet its definitely worth a watch.

Brexit latest news: Leo Varadkar compares trade talks to football and claims he's on the 'stronger team'





Amy Jones, political correspondent
27 JANUARY 2020 • 9:02AM



Leo Varadkar has compared Britain’s trade negotiations with the EU to football and claimed he’s on the “stronger team”.

The Irish Prime Minister suggested the bloc would have the upper hand in forging a deal, due to its larger population and market.

He said: "The European Union is a union of 27 member states. The UK is only one country. And we have a population and a market of 450 million people.

“So if these were two teams up against each other playing football, who do you think has the stronger team?"

He also disagreed with the Prime Minister’s claim that there is "bags of time" to sign an agreement by the end of the year, warning "it will be difficult to do this".
