ewerk 30620 Posted June 14, 2019 Share Posted June 14, 2019 Chuka admitted he was wrong and explained his decision. The problem with nearly all politicians is that they refuse to change their minds. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renton 21627 Posted June 16, 2019 Share Posted June 16, 2019 Came across this article on hard Brexit and NI. https://www.rte.ie/news/analysis-and-comment/2019/0614/1055418-double-whammy-a-no-deal-brexit-and-northern-ireland/ tl;dr? NI is completely fucked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemmill 44900 Posted June 16, 2019 Share Posted June 16, 2019 Anyone watching "the debate" at half 6 on 4. I'll stick it on but more in the hope that they make a huge deal of what a cowardly little cunt Johnson is. Enough to somehow affect his march to No. 10.

Gemmill 44900 Posted June 16, 2019 Share Posted June 16, 2019 Rory Stewart is wiping the floor with the other little boys in the room here. And yet he still probably won't get through the next round because he's not certifiable enough for the Tories. Sajid Javid's voice is INSANE. He sounds like someone trying to talk while playing the comb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gemmill 44900 Posted June 16, 2019 Share Posted June 16, 2019 Gove insisting that "Saj" is an "amazing guy" has been the low point of the evening. Comfortably. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renton 21627 Posted June 16, 2019 Share Posted June 16, 2019 Not watching but what's the point? Along with 99.9% of people I don't get a preference on my favourite cunt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ewerk 30620 Posted June 18, 2019 Share Posted June 18, 2019 Westminster politics is fucked. Watching Rishi Sinai on Politics Live as Johnson’s surrogate and he’s living in a fantasy world. The EU are going to capitulate as soon as they see BJ across the table and the new commission are going to be falling over themselves to reopen the WA. And then repeats all this even while sitting beside an Irish senator who has told him in no uncertain circumstances that it isn’t happening. The EU are going to end up kicking us out.

They can't or won't block us revoking, but almost certainly will block a further extension. It will be us that chooses not to revoke. Same endpoint like. I've thought this for some time, although I'm not 100% sure Johnson won't actually revoke {just 99.9% sure). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Renton 21627 Posted June 18, 2019 Share Posted June 18, 2019 Hmmmm, Portillo predicted this in This Week after QT. BTW, it turns out I had a bet with my wife that I'd bare my arse in Fenwicks window if Johnson ever became PM (a couple of years back) . Going to have to do a Lineker for the sake of humanity.

PaddockLad 17281 Posted June 18, 2019 Share Posted June 18, 2019 Right someone is going to have to explain that one... I thought the problem with the NI backstop was it ties the UK into the EU by the back door? But now theres a NI backstop and a separate UK one?

It means NI will be in customary and regulatory alignment with the Republic with a border in the Irish Sea. Hence DUP go apeshit and GE time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ewerk 30620 Posted June 18, 2019 Share Posted June 18, 2019 Initially the EU were proposing that the backstop only covered NI. Arlene and the DUP threw their toys out of the pram and the EU made a concession in allowing the UK to essentially all stay in a customs union with NI staying in the SM for areas that affect all-Ireland trade. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thing is, Brexit is liable to break up both the UK and Britain the way things are going. These Brexiters are going to lose the union flag. Also I thought most them were in the "no surrender to the IRA" camp yet here they ate not giving a toss about NI as long as Brexit happens. English nationalism is fucking strange. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fuckin hell Aye. Then again I was watching the Netflix Attenborough programme and he rightly stated that humans had fucked the planet in one single human life span. I may be paraphrasing. I would support independence now were I Scottish (who ws that Peebles SNP lad again?). A hard border at Berwick and Gretna would be fairly easy to enforce with special arrangements. Scotland's future in the UK is untenable with the current Westminster set up. Johnson is a godsend to Sturgeon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
