German version of BBC World but without the credibility issues for those unfamiliar with Deutsche Welle.

This is such a great way to end a relationship with such a vitally important trading block

 

Time is on our side. 80% youth support for the EU. Like N Tesla said, the present is theirs. The future is ours! And 51% will be enough for us to have the euro and join the s. area too! :cheer:

"We've already started negotiating" is definitely merely a slip of a tongue. This only shows how absolutely useless and incompetent he is. Boris isn't that far behind at all from what I'm seeing either.

The UK will never rejoin the European Union.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Mainly because the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland won’t exist in a few years.

Maybe Boris doesn't want to play by EU rules any longer as we're leaving.

This only shows what an arrogant idiot he is.

 

He can kill a baby, confess and you will still defend him :lol:

Oh that's right tbh. Uuf in that case Little England will be a lone state surrounded by the EU for years.

 

Welsh independence closing in on 40%, with people saying they'd vote foe it to stay in the EU. In 2014 it was at 5%. Oh dear. Brexiters, we warned you x Oh and it's 51% for a United Ireland. Ahh I see. Take back control meant break up the UK and have the devolved powers take back control.

I don't know why we skite so nicely around the fact that British rightwingers fervently want the UK to become a white British ethnostate, preferably one in which Scottish, Welsh and Northern Irish people are absolutely silenced if they don't do everything their English co-citizens say without complaint while smiling and bowing.

 

Every comment posted by people with that political leaning has that in the background as a never-outright-stated subtext.

The reason why this brexshit mess is even happening is because those right wingers expect Wales Scotland and NI to be subservient to English imperialism.

As one of my Facebook friends has said, watch someone throw some last minute spanner in the works to stop us leaving. Will be glad when 31st is finally here. Can't come quick enough now with all these last minute pathetic shenanigans.

 

Why can't the SNP accept that, at the moment, Scotland's part of the UK as a result of a referendum held, and the UK voted to leave the EU? Seems clear enough to me.

Because Chris, as has been said, there was a huge media push from London that the only way Scottish people could stay in the EU was to vote to stay in the UK, and staying in the EU has been one of the most important values of Scottish people for a long time.

 

Its as if Johnson promised you that the only way for you to keep your benefits would be to vote for him and then he definitely would make sure you kept them safe, and then as soon as he was elected turned around and did the opposite - in fact made it impossible for you to be eligible for benefits.

 

That is what the British government has done to the Scottish people. Promised one thing, and then done the outright opposite.

Wtf can they do about if we were negotiating early anyway? :rolleyes:

 

Spot on. Both of you.

The colonies have awoken and there is no fixing this broken relationship.

Not a lot really. Well suppose they could refuse to open any trade talks but that would be cutting off your nose to spite your face really as they need to trade with us roo.

They will be fine. The UK needs the EU FAAAAR more snd that's what you empire brexit lot just son't understand.

I'd an idea they'd try something right at the last minute though. :rolleyes:

Perhaps some good news.

 

Mr Javid said the UK would not back down over the tax which will hit US firms like Apple, Amazon and Facebook.

 

A trade deal with the EU would take priority over one with the US after the UK leaves the EU this month, he added.

 

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-51206425

 

Sensible to prioritise the EU over the US.

The government has lost three votes in the Lords over its Brexit legislation - its first defeats since the election.

 

Peers supported calls for EU nationals to be given a physical document as proof they have the right to live in the UK after it leaves the bloc.

 

They also voted to remove ministers' power to decide which EU Court of Justice rulings can be disregarded or set aside by UK courts and tribunals.

 

Ministers will aim to reverse the moves when the bill returns to the Commons.

 

With a majority of 80, the government will be confident of getting its way.

 

The EU Withdrawal Bill, which paves the way for the UK to leave the EU with a deal on 31 January, was approved by MPs earlier this month without any changes.

 

But despite their emphatic victory in December's general election, the Conservatives do not have a majority in the Lords and have suffered a series of defeats during the bill's passage through the unelected House.

 

I see those Amendments were easily overturned in the HoC, and the HoL abided by the Salisbury Convention and passed it on its Second Reading. That was as predictable as the left-wing press giving it far less attention than they gave the initial Lords defeats... :teresa:

All of those amendments were perfectly reasonable. I’m yet to see any argument as to why they should have been overturned.

 

Why shouldn’t we give documentation to EU nationals proving their status? Most, of not all, of us in the EU27 will get paperwork providing assurance of our legal status and rights. Overturning that amendment just opens the doors to allow Windrush 2.0

I assume you're looking for something more than 'because Boris wanted it'? :teresa:

 

Seriously though, he doesn't want the EU to have any more influence than necessary.

Yep. What those who have never been migrants might not always understand is that simply having laws out there protecting your status is only half the battle. You also need to be able to prove your status to the many, many people who aren't familiar with the law and how it specifically pertains to you. Having official documentation is really important for this.

 

British citizens resident in France were advised to bring housing, work contracts along with passports to the airport, in case of no deal, so that our passports might not be stamped as visitor (limiting us to a 90 day stay), as would be the default. This is because there wasn't and still isn't any documentation that proves our continued legal residency during the French grace period (not the same as the EU-wide transition period) during which we don't have to have a visa.

 

Note that the UK's hostile environment policy compels doctors, social workers, teachers and would-be landlords to also act as border security, and these professions don't, and ordinarily shouldn't, need to be up to speed with migration law. Not having documentation for situations like this only makes discrimination - and the High Court has determined that the hostile environment is indeed racially discriminatory - even more likely.
