Rees-Mogg: “We will know at some point, of course we will. But it’s a question of timescale.” Guru-Murthy: “So how long have you got?” Rees-Mogg: “We won’t know the full economic consequences for a very long time, we really won’t.” Guru-Murthy: “Of course not, but I mean we’ll have an indication. We’ll know if there’s been chaos, we’ll know if there have been job losses.” Rees-Mogg: “The overwhelming opportunity for Brexit is over the next 50 years.”

Hang on, didn't JRM say that it could be up to 50 years before we knew if Brexit was a success ?

Why do you exhibit such a bitter persona on this thread ?
-
They don't exist, the vote was simply asking Tessie to go away and come back with a solution that is not the 'backstop'.

Smashing what, the country ?

Statistically it might actually be Shane's goal for this manager.

The problem is that's Shane's goal for the season. ( Although without Schmeichel's help it would have gone wide ).

Here's a real 'out of left field' idea - let's have a vote.

We do not have uncontrolled immigration. The EU might have an issue currently with the volume of migrants crossing from Africa and the Middle East, but the UK has control, ( however poorly the Home Office chooses to implement it ).
-
Those same 'allies' that have, or are negotiating, comprehensive trade agreements with the 'busted flush' ?
-
Have those German car manufacturers battered their Chancellor's front door down yet ?

Just looked it up, did they intend to make it the most complicated league in the world ?

Our recent history with 'record signings' is not particularly good.

Ahhhh yes, I remember it well. Loads of overtime, ( though I did have to work through New Year's Eve into New Year's Day ), and it got me out of jury service at Preston Crown Court. Do you ever watch QI ? I think the General Ignorance round would be perfect for you.

Coming from a self confessed moron........ ( Now, just in case I am actually on ignore, can somebody please quote this post ).

I'm not trying to be difficult, nor am I looking for an argument, but I thought that a 'no deal' Brexit automatically meant WTO rules, in which case we must apply tariffs equally across the board; we would not be able to set different levels for EU and non-EU trade due to MFN rules. ( Now, if you can post a sensible response explaining where I am mis-understanding things, and you can avoid your default position of always adding an insult, I would appreciate the opportuninty to better understand the situation ). EDIT; After re-reading the quoted text, I think I understand where my misunderstanding arose. However, being an IT security consultant with a degree in Microbiology, economics is not my specialist subject of choice.

The quote in GM's post states "If following our departure without a trade deal with the EU we were to decide to impose tariffs on imports from the EU, possibly causing UK prices to go up,.....", and goes on to say " We import large amounts from non-EU countries and these prices would not change,...... ". Is not the second part incorrect, as under WTO rules we would be obliged to impose exactly the same level of tariffs on non-EU imports ?
-
So why was he sitting there being totally trampled over, on the subject of tariffs ? Why didn't he follow the basic rule, "Better to be silent and thought a fool, than to open your mouth and remove all doubt".

So 1 item that may turn out, in the future, to become reality outweighs that list of nearly 100 outright fabrications, most of which would have been on front pages, in large typeface ?

He hasn't got a f+++ing clue. That wasn't a car crash, it was a complete train derailment, over the side of a bridge across a 1000ft deep ravine.

Women compete equally at the top level in equestrian events. ( If this were on The Muppet Show I am sure that would prompt some sort of response referencing their having a lump of throbbing muscle gripped between their thighs ).
