Not in the quote you posted he didn't, Tim, nice but dim You really are quite thick if you honestly believe that it has been our choice to decide what type of deal we could swap from and which one we could hop on to. I suspect that what he was proposing was purely hypothetical and never a realistic opportunity as has been proven during your period of hibernation.

To be fair, the treatment of kids has been nothing short of a shambles during the pandemic. Lockdown 1 and they were out of school for months. The majority of schools just weren't equipped for online tutoring so kids were left to fend for themselves with little or no interaction from the school / teachers. A lot of expectation on parents to take on the role of 'teacher', people who fundamentally aren't equipped to be teaching kids, that's ignoring the fact that for a lot of parents work continued full time during lock down. Then the kids were allowed back to school, but in the case of my daughter's school (and every other school in North Somerset), entire year groups were sent home if one person tested positive. Again, they had to endure the non existent online teaching and were largely left to their own devices - we get a 'google classroom' report at the end of each week, highlighting what 'should' have been completed (why not at the beginning of the week when we had time to do something about it!!), but that has been poorly managed and is often 2/3 weeks out of date!! For kids that are due to sit their GCSEs in a couple of months, they've been pretty much abandoned for the best part of a year!

But we didn't take a 'Norway-style transitional arrangement' we kept the status quo for the entire transitional period. Have you been hibernating for the past year?

Your responses suggested a moderate automatic preference for Black people over White people. Your result is described as an "Automatic preference for Black people over White people" if you were faster responding when Black people and Good are assigned to the same response key than when White people and Good were classified with the same key. Your score is described as an "Automatic preference for White people over Black people" if the opposite occurred. Your automatic preference may be described as "slight", "moderate", "strong", or "no preference". This indicates the strength of your automatic preference.

I'd add Sara Cox to the list.

Pretty damning indictment of the EU education system...

Sure

You've had the last four and a half years to move to the glorius EU. I suspect you haven't because, despite your constant moaning, you feel your life is actually better in the UK. Funny that.

Lol. Drunken morons will never realise their behaviour isn't being tolerated.

Triggered.

Yep, you're right. That sounds exactly like your logical, clear thinking football fan that's downed six pints before the match. Those guys are always really understanding and will no doubt have the root cause of the problem sorted in next to no time.

A question popped into my head this morning whilst out riding in the wind and rain, I passed an empty church and wondered what religion is making of Coronavirus? I'm assuming that religion is of the opinion that 'God' created the virus - unless the belief is that it is man made and that God gave man the ability to create the virus? Is God to blame for the virus that is killing innocent people or is it something else's fault?

Let alone finding someone who would actually cough up the cash...

The MoD have stated that the Royal Navy is ready to provide a 'robust defence' of UK fishing waters from the 1st of January. I'm assuming CB Fry and Timmy won't have any issues with this, what with that being the decision of an independent Government protecting its own sovereignty...

Amazing that this slide does not even consider 'fishing rights'. That topic that is so important as to hinder the negotiation process didn't even get a look in when Claude made his slide. It's almost as if 'fishing rights' were an afterthought added in to muddy the waters.

Yet you've stated previously that you 'couldn't decide' which way to vote so you didn't vote at all. Bottled it.

Is that because you bottled it and didn't vote at all? Question too tricky for you was it?

And we're out. Not sure what your point is? It's pretty obvious that logistically we couldn't have left the week after the vote was returned, but I agree that the time frame should have been shorter.

I'm not. Not sure anyone is...

Lol. I think you already know the answer to that.

Can you give examples of people that aren't?

You are aware that the negotiation has two sides? Conversely, if the UK prefers WTO rules to what the EU is proposing that is up to them.

Great news.

We did, last January. We've been discussing a future relationship. It's now clear there won't be one. It's not the end of the world.
