Sadly pal44 I know a lot of medium size companies running flat out with much less staff that are still on furlough. They are definitely asking themselves if they need them!!

The government's legal statementBy JOHNREDWOOD | Published: SEPTEMBER 15, 2020Some constituents have asked about the legal base for the legislation Parliament will consider next week. This is it:HMG LEGAL POSITION: UKIM BILL AND NORTHERN IRELAND PROTOCOLThis is the Government's legal position on the UK Internal Market Bill ("the Bill") which was introduced on 9 September. The purpose of the Bill is to promote the continued functioning of the internal market in the UK after the conclusion of the transition period provided for in the Withdrawal Agreement and the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018. The Bill also provides for how aspects of the Northern Ireland Protocol to the Withdrawal Agreement apply in the UK's domestic law. In particular it ensures that the government will be able to deliver its commitments to protect peace in Northern Ireland and the Belfast/Good Friday Agreement, and to strengthen and maintain the UK internal market.Clauses 42 and 43 of the Bill give HMG the power to make regulations to (i) disapply or modify the application of any exit procedures that would otherwise be applicable to goods moving from Northern Ireland to Great Britain, and (ii) make regulations setting out how the provisions of the Northern Ireland Protocol on State aid are to be given effect for the purposes of domestic law. The clauses provide that these powers may be exercised in a way that is incompatible with provisions of the Withdrawal Agreement. Clause 45 of the Bill expressly provides that these clauses, and any regulations made under them, have effect notwithstanding any international or domestic law with which they may be incompatible or inconsistent. This 'notwithstanding provision' partially disapplies Article 4 of the Withdrawal Agreement because it removes the possibility of challenge before domestic courts to enforce the rights and remedies provided for in the Withdrawal Agreement. The effect is to disapply the EU law concept of 'direct effect'. This is the case regardless of whether any regulations made under clause 42 or 43 of the Bill are in fact incompatible with the Withdrawal Agreement.It is an established principle of international law that a state is obliged to discharge its treaty obligations in good faith. This is, and will remain, the key principle in informing the UK's approach to international relations. However, in the difficult and highly exceptional circumstances in which we find ourselves, it is important to remember the fundamental principle of Parliamentary sovereignty.Parliament is sovereign as a matter of domestic law and can pass legislation which is in breach of the UK's Treaty obligations. Parliament would not be acting unconstitutionally in enacting such legislation. This 'dualist' approach is shared by other, similar legal systems such as Canada, Australia and New Zealand. Under this approach, treaty obligations only become binding to the extent that they are enshrined in domestic legislation. Whether to enact or repeal legislation, and the content of that legislation, is for Parliament and Parliament alone. This principle was recently approved unanimously by the Supreme Court in R (Miller) v Secretary of State for Exiting the European Union [2017] UKSC 5.The legislation which implements the Withdrawal Agreement including the Northern Ireland Protocol is expressly subject to the principle of parliamentary sovereignty. Parliament's ability to pass provisions that would take precedence over the Withdrawal Agreement was expressly confirmed in section 38 of the European Union (Withdrawal Agreement) Act 2020, with specific reference to the EU law concept of 'direct effect'.

1:27pmEU to extend access to London clearing houses – FTThe European Commission is preparing to offer banks an 18-month extension on their access to UK-based clearing house, the FT reports.The paper says:The European Commission has proposed to governments that access to UK-based clearing houses – which sit between deals and prevent defaults from ricocheting through the rest of the market – should remain undisturbed until the middle of 2022, according to two people briefed on the draft plans.Brussels' position reflects London's pre-eminence in the market for clearing euro-denominated derivatives, and suggests that financial services are a point of leverage for the UK in increasingly strained trade negotiations with the EU.

By the way 'pity' has one p and one t with an i and a y, you should have learned to spell, long ago!

Well engineered? The Mini had the first popular transverse engine, an astonishing piece of engineering!

And without wishing to discuss the whole history of British motoring, the Maxi was a remarkable thing in its day, a time before the invention of the hatchback.

Both vehicles show the application of ingenuity to make less do more - the opposite of these light trucks posing as cars which are the modern mini.

You make a good point about the new BMW mini.
Reliable, comfortable, well engineered, not at all like the original.

We used to love our mini's...opening the door by pulling on that cord.
yuk...
following the other great cars, the Maxi and Allegro (all aggro)

What you a pining for is are not those dreadful cars but your lost youth.

'Merkel and her EU empire.'

xxxxxx ect dig up so much propaganda for simpletons.

Basil Faulty used to say 'Don't mention the war'.

These clowns writing the above article think that if you mention Markel or Germany that their case for Brexit is won.

We have many friends in Germany that regret us leaving. There are many UK citizens who admire Germans and Germany.

It makes me realise that you have never worked with them, known any of them.
They are my kind od people.
It never bothers me that our Royal Family are of German decent.
Kith and Kin.
