  1. You get exactly the same if you ask people to define "good Brexit".
  2. But is calling this 'censorship' a bit disingenuous, or even alarmist ? It appear that the principal objections in this regard are that the proposals effectively prohibit some models for delivering Internet content from operating, as the implicit costs of reconfiguring and monitoring the backend IT systems can realistically only be met and justified by the Global players. Censorship would imply a deliberate policy of denying access to content following a political or legal mandate.
  3. What part of Articles 11 and 13 amount to 'Internet Censorship' ? And given the amount of public discussion, where is the evidence for secret debates ?
  4. Hesperus
  5. It seems they make xenophobes reveal their true colours.
  6. If Rees-Mogg keeps up his whinging he could split the Tories so badly that Labour might get into #10. I reckon that wasn't a post-Brexit outcome many Leavers were anticipating.
  7. When was it last properly 'off-road' ? ( As opposed to parked on the pavement ).
  8. The sort who buy bloody great Chelsea tractors then use them to ferry their kids no more than a mile to school.
  9. So they are practicing their bad and inconsiderate driving for when they finally can afford one ?
  10. Rather than England going out to them.
  11. Mysterons
  12. What a load of codswallop.
  13. And I reckon our saddle bags aren't really Gucci, just cheap South East Asian rip offs.
  14. Isle......
  15. But the European Parliament is an unelected, undemocratic, tyranny that overrides any local attempts at democratic accountability, isn't it ?
  16. Do you think the DUP, holding the balance of power, know what's best for Britain, ( or England, seeing as Wales and Scotland have a degree of self governance ) ?
  17. The Prime Minister is the person who nominally controls enough votes to maintain a Commons majority of 1, and is appointed PM by the Queen on that basis. This does not necessarily mean the leader of the party with the most seats, and does not preclude a PM running a minority Government. And as for your other point about 'voting out an elected Parliament', research Fixed Term Parliaments, it's virtually impossible to get rid before the 5 year term, ( unless the PM has a suicide wish like Tessy May last time around ).
  18. Airbus probably have selfish ulterior motives behind their stance on Brexit, as do many others on both sides, ( including some posters on here ).
  19. They already build wings for A319s and A320s in China.
  20. Oh dear, maybe things won't be as rosy, post Brexit, as Mrs May wishes; https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-44570931
  21. See, you can make sensible points.
  22. In 2016 we paid £13.1 billion into the EU budget, so that comes to just shy of £252m per week. According to the House of Commons Library, we paid exactly the same amount in 2017. ( Unless, of course, the HoC is making up numbers ). https://researchbriefings.parliament.uk/ResearchBriefing/Summary/CBP-7886
  23. £350 million is a "made up number".
