Weston Super Saint

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.

Are you claiming that not one single person that voted to remain also voted for the conservatives at the last election?

Is that applicable the other way round?

I thought that Remainers were the clever ones? https://www.channel4.com/news/factcheck/factcheck-shaky-evidence-for-starmers-attack-on-johnson-brexit-promise

Technically 'everyone' is getting what was voted for - unless of course you have emigrated to the EU to enjoy the bountiful fruits on offer across the Channel.

He's just pushing on to get the record for the most number of executions by a President. Presumably he wants the record as he feels people might forget about him otherwise. I'd also caveat my lighthearted glibness by the fact that the US Supreme Court has to sanction any executions so it's not just Trump being 'spiteful'...

You almost sound like you're embracing 'no deal'

What can we look forward to on January 1st when no deal is the reality? Give us your best (worst) case scenarios so we can compare with the reality later in the year...

Yesterday they carried out the execution of a man who was convicted in 1999 - over 20 years ago! If Trump was doing it 'out of spite' wouldn't it have made more sense for him to do so at the beginning of his Presidency? It's not like the guy wasn't already in prison on 'death row' at that time!

It's the only possible conclusion that can be drawn really. Four and a half years of negotiations, elections, law making and lots of cross channel visits, but in the end it is all completely ruined with less than three weeks to go, because Boris cracked a shit joke and looked scruffy (which is his 'trademark' anyway isn't it?)

So pretty much what GM stated when he said we had FTAs with 'almost' 60 countries then?

Haven't we always traded with 2 of our top 3 trading partners on WTO terms and tariffs?

Jesus wept! I used to think you were just pretending to be 'Tim, nice but dim', recently you are do everything in your power to prove that is exactly who you are. GM originally stated that we have FTAs with almost 60 COUNTRIES - I've put the important bit in capitals for you so you don't miss it - here is his statement : You've then argued with that statement claiming there are only 28 after 1st January - here is your statement : It's only now that you are claiming FTAs as opposed to the FTAs with COUNTRIES that GM stated. At no point before then did you claim it was stand alone FTAs, so it stands to reason you were arguing (pointlessly) with GMs statement about countries. As I said before, those 'thick as shit' people in glass houses, shouldn't be throwing stones.

Lol. Badger counted 54, you counted 28. Those 'pig shit thick' people in glass houses shouldn't be throwing stones
