I'm just asking what you are trying to say. No need to be so defensive. So if you're not saying what I posted (which, I agree, would be a mental approach to take) what are you saying? That we make a hollow threat and as a result the EU will cave in and agree a last minute FTA? Or that we go no deal and then ignore or wilfully misinterpret WTO rules? Is that right?

Gao is the new Kruger and Wee Ross is the new Lezza.

Hahaha. That can't be an actual kit.

So the replacement for Ralph K is Gao and the replacement for Lesley is Wee Ross. #letsgaof-ingmental

It’s just a joke, Susan.

It’s absurd because if a goal isn’t scored and you play on then the pattern of play has been affected by the offside. I can see the logic in tending towards not flagging if in doubt but when you are confident enough to make the call you should still flag. Yeah, that means the odd mistake but still fewer mistakes and less of an impact on the game.

So we declare unilateral tariff free imports whilst the rest of the world (other than anyone we’ve struck a deal with) imposes tariffs and quotas on all our exports?

QED. Game, set and match. Breakfast means breakfast. There are two main premises in that argument: i) GATT XXIV can be relied upon legally and it will be a simple process. ii) The EU will agree. Can we be sure about both of those, particularly ii)?

R.I.P.

It's quite unnerving to think that 120,000 clueless, anachronistic, fuddy-duddies interspersed with some red-faced, "best of British", St George cross, let's knock-off and drink some Carling, loonies and floppy-haired, bum intruded, repressed inbreds will decide the future political direction of the country. A people's council of Alan Sugar, Danny Dyer and Brian Sewell's boy-ghost. #mess

Maybe they shouldn’t have rigged the vote to keep Gove out then there could have been more choice. Chickens.

Lol. Why did you put an "*" in "vagina", SOG? Seems you're the fannyphobe around here!

Vagina.

It's just a joke. Next.

Looks like some bad homework.

What did he say?

Delivery driver keeps being sick when he sees it. Stuck at warehouse. Still, as long as we get some money in our account in Pounds Sterling eventually, what's the problem?

Ahh! Thought Stokes was going to do it there.

Pat Nevin.

Yes, there's a real Blair-style narcissism behind a lot of these folk.

I woke up this morning to news on the Beeb radio that Mark Field had physically accosted a protester and that the footage was “shocking”. I then went online to see this “shocking” footage. Shocking? No. Now, he probably shouldn’t have grabbed her and he’ll get in trouble and rightly so, I guess. However, I really fear for public discourse in the Western world. The radio reports made it sound like he’d given her six of the best when really he just stopped her progress then led her out. She’ll be fine. People get roughed up more than that by the police every day. Hysterical reporting does no one any favours.

Does anyone remember that wind-up act that used to post on here? Can’t remember his name but it was in the Lowe/Crouch/ Wilde days. He used to call them Lord Lowe, the Quisling Wilde and the Insect Crouch. Anyway, that’s British politics now, that is.

Hitting the gas after you’ve just filled up. A long overdue slash.

Stig Johansen?
