Re: Brexit News For Brexiteers, please see the link

It was a suitable response to a silly question. Of course, I could have said "What the fuck are you on about?" Would you have preferred that? So you are not going to answer the question, then? Have it your way..... :penguin: Good grief, Nick. The talk was about a HARD BORDER. FFS. +1. Please do not...

Re: In or out?

Lack of clarity on Brexit from Theresa May? Who'd have thought it... Britain is holding up Brexit talks with lack of clarity, Michel Barnier says Talks on the future relationship between the EU and UK after Brexit are being held back because the UK side lacks “clarity” about what it wants, the bloc...

Re: Brexit News For Brexiteers, please see the link

Do you accept that there has to be a border between the EU and a third country? There is still a border between any 2 countries, even within Schengen. That's what makes them 2 countries, not one. So, having answered yours, how about answering mine? :D That was a silly response, Nick, and you know i...

so Trump accuses the EU of being protectionist? This is the man who is starting trade wars in order to save American jobs! I'm certainly not a Trump supporter, and think his strategy to be somewhat high risk and therefore somewhat unwise, but he does have a point about unfair competition, and the E...
