I am not sure there are many on here, other than perhaps Warrior, who don't accept that we are out. However, we are not happy to simply sit back and give Boris and his bunch of incompetent acolytes a free hand to sell us further down the river than we, as a nation, have allowed ourselves to go. Their position on NI is particularly worrying, if only for the level of stupidity and arrogance being displayed. Yes he got a mandate to "Get Brexit Done", but he was not given a free hand to fuck the whole country over.

How do you determine that they are 'lefties' ? And there is a difference between not 'accepting it' and holding the Government's position and attitude up to scrutiny, ( and if necessary ridicule ).

Brexit is not / was not a Left/Right issue. It was an In/Out issue, where Liz Truss, Sajid Javid, Jeremy Hunt, ( among others ), supported Remain - as did Boris until about 2 days before the referendum polling day.

Apparently our players are tired as they have just finished their season. Have the Germans, Italians, and Hungarians not just done the same ?

Taking lessons from Ralph. Now 4-0.

1) Never a yellow card offence. 2) Things looking good for the World Cup.

So, the UK Government ratified a treaty they negotiated having been given 18 months advanced notice of potential issues, and now claims these 'issues' are 'new and emerging', and represent a "Grave and Immediate Danger". Why are the Government so desperate to appease the DUP ?

Yes, but there is always the conflict between Councils building new stock and Right to Buy taking it from them, plus financial constraints imposed on them by Westminster around how they can fund such building. It is estimated that at least 40% of houses bought through RtB are now in the Private Rented sector. -

How much, per capita, is it going to cost to fly 6 people to Rwanda ? -

At least 2 online European shops I have previously bought from that sell bicycle components no longer export to the UK, so I have had to buy from UK outlets which charge more. I can still browse their websites, so know that their prices are cheaper.

Streaming channel FREEVEE has Babylon 5 for anybody feeling nostalgic.

Nice and consistant in the batting order after that.

Is there anything that can be shown to be cheaper as a consequence of Brexit ?

Alexei is unable to debate, he just uses memes like a discount MLG.

Probably because whilst Lukashenko is an enabler for Putler, the only Belarussians actually fighting are doing so on the side of Ukraine.

You can have the lowest GDP and the fastest growing GDP, in percentage terms, at the same time. -
Ukraine is listed as being just under 604 thousand square km, Russia occupies approx 20% - so say 120 thousand square km. The UK is 243 thousand square km, so Russia occupies an area about half the size of the UK. HTH

A week during which the Russians have expended a lot of artillery shells for minimal gain, and hundreds of people have died. The battle in the East has turned into highly attritional slugfest where, potentially, the outcome will be decided by either Ukraine running out of ammunition or the Russians running out of viable units.
-
Western nations are investigating various potential outcomes for the war and how they might be reached - exactly what they should be doing. There is no guarantee that Russia will even manage to overrun the Donbas region, there is no realistic chance that Ukraine will reclaim it's pre-2014 borders, so regardless of Putin's bluster and Zelensky's brave words is it not reasonable that these 'frameworks' are played through, if only to gauge the West's appetite for a prolonged proxy war.

Strangely the UNHCR are one of the organisations fighting the UK policy and claiming it breaks international law.
