  2. I thought you were quite content with a WTO based no-deal exit.
  3. As a proportion of their total trade ? They are approx 50% of both our imports and exports, we are less than 10% of EU exports.
  4. He needed to go years ago.
  5. Whilst the cliff edge might be troublesome for the EU, it will be far worse for the UK. A classic case of "cutting off your nose...".
  6. #didn’thappen
  7. I note that we seem to be lacking in graphs showing that the Pound has fallen against both the Euro and the Dollar this afternoon. Presumably this is not due to Boris 'playing a blinder'.
  8. A similar thing didn't happen to my daughter when she showed support to some EU citizens on FaceBook, she was told to 'go back to where you come from'. The antagonist had no further response to her posting 'What, Blackpool ?'.
  9. To be accurate, the funding is planned to increase year on year so that in 5 years time it will be that much higher than today, not allowing for inflation. It is not £33bn in the next financial year.

  11. Pants
  12. Don't be so touchy, it was an attempt at a light-hearted comment. You Brexiteers should stop being so angry and aggressive - you won ffs !
  13. https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2019/dec/17/johnson-bans-ministers-from-davos-in-nod-to-working-class-voters "Johnson also asked his colleagues “how many new hospitals are we going to build?” with the cabinet answering back in unison “40”. He then asked: “How many more nurses are we going to hire?” They chanted back: “50,000.”" Oh no you're not ! ( Well, it is panto season ). As for forming a 'People's Government', how very Communist Central Committee. Jeremy Corbyn must be spitting feathers as his mantra gets hijacked.
  14. No you wouldn't, but it would make misery easier to bear.
  15. Boris continuing to 'play a blinder'; "THE pound has plummeted against the euro and US dollar with Boris Johnson set to throw down the gauntlet to the EU." https://www.express.co.uk/finance/city/1218217/pound-to-euro-exchange-rate-GBP-sterling-US-dollar-Brexit-no-deal-boris-johnson I wonder if anyone will reply claiming that I don't really understand that this is all just posturing, and that both the EU and the UK will now work all the harder to ensure that no-deal does not, in fact, happen.
  16. 340,000 leave votes in NI, population of Gib approx 35,000. Still leaves over two and a half million.
  17. No, just pointing out a statistical curiosity. And please don't blaspheme.
  18. Anybody to the left of Genghis Khan.
  19. We can but hope.
  20. Has he now emerged from the coffin he's been locked into for the election campaign ?
  21. Trump has always insisted that he wants to reverse the current trade deficit that the US has with the UK.
  22. Over 3 million fewer people voted Tory in the GE than voted for Brexit in the referendum.
  23. WTO may be fine by you, but it is almost certainly not ideal for the rest of the country.
  24. Was Ings's goal disallowed because he was outside the penalty area when he scored ?
