What, as the 51st State of the Union ?

But what does his German wife think of it ? You can understand Nige's fear of the EU, his first mother-in-law was Irish, his second was German.

But we held all the cards.

Every 'scheduling' decision made during the pandemic has been botched.

I reckon Tier 4 will be extended across the whole of England on Jan 1st. It is faintly ridiculous to think an arbitrary line on a map has any effect; at what point as you drive from Maybush to Cadnam do you become less infectious ?

Bit late to the party, aren't you ?

Exactly. As Nige said, if the referendum was to finish in a close, eg 52-48, remain vote, he would continue to campaign to leave the EU.

How, when we can't take advanrage of any reduction in EU fishing in UK coastal waters ?

No, for the vast majority of them we have agreed that the UK can roll over the terms of the existing EU agreements. What a negotiating coup that is.

A sure sign they are about to talk bollocks.

No, we were able to authorise the CoViD vaccine 2 weeks before the EU. 🙂

Donnie taking care of the important things in the current crisis; US President Donald Trump has issued an order that future federal buildings across the country must be "beautiful", and preferably built in a classical Greek, Roman, or similar style. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-55407136

Indeed, France is our main export destination for fish, taking about 20% of our total exports. It isn't in the top 15 sources of fish imports. In terms of overall trade, our balance of trade with France is about even - there is a slight UK trade deficit of about £400million on a total trade of £81billion. But again, statistics don't matter to Wes.

Well done Wes, at least your appreciation of history is more accurate than GM's, ( although you still seem to be getting a hard-on for the WTO ). But why stop at our ownership of Calais ? Go back to before Jean d'Arc strutted her stuff, and we ruled almost all of what was than deemed to be France. Add that to our German Royal Family's ancestral lands and you can end up asking why those pesky continentals won't just bow down in subservience to their true masters ?

A view from the USA, or 'fake news' from CNN ? https://edition.cnn.com/2020/12/21/uk/boris-johnson-covid-analysis-intl-gbr/index.html Boris Johnson has led Britain into an abyss of overlapping crises at the worst possible time "Boris Johnson is living through the most politically difficult days of his life since becoming Prime Minister of the United Kingdom. With just 10 days until the end of a tumultuous year, Johnson is mired in colliding crises, some of which are entirely of his own creation. "

Sound

So that would be mongs following the Highways Agency advice ?

But sovereignty over our own waters trumps everything. Facts aren't relevant to the conversation. Just dig out your Union Flag boxer shorts and get ready to stand out in your front garden at 00:01 on the first day of our freedom from the EUSSR's colonial domination, and join in with the communal chorus of Rule Britannia, followed by 5 minutes of clapping ourselves for our achievement. After all, with our fleet of 8 Fisheries Protection vessels we most certainly will "rule the waves". ( Unfortunately, those British fishermen who can no longer fish in EU waters, and are not able to fish in UK waters, as you have detailed, will be ouf of work, but hey - we stuck it to those pesky foreigners ).

So, the Mercedes F1 team won it. Well done Toto and his engineers.

If you read back the last few pages of this thread, you'll find GM has a similar problem with dates and reality. Could you have a word with him ?

If the Sovereign cannot rule on sovereignty, who can ?

Yay! We beat the USA by a week. Go us ! Are you certain that no corners have been cut in reducing a development, testing, certification, and production timetable that usually takes years down to 7 months ?

They don't need to save money, after Dec 31st, we'll have an extra £350million a week available for the NHS 😉

Good practice for Jan 1st.
