Good morning UKIP voting EU lover Tony.
We have been dictated to for years. Now it is obvious even to the blind. So should we stay in the EU just because we are getting bullied and dictated to?
Governments run throughout the EU as a coalition. When was the last time Germany didn't have a coalition?so it's OK for the DUP, with 10 sitting MPs, to be totally inflexible but not a block of 27 countries?
Like I say, this should have been anticipated. Seems like the government was hoping on the EU bending over backwards to accommodate us.
Look to the start of the thread, I said one of my main reasons for voting remain was I didn't trust the tories to be able to deliver Brexit successfully, unfortunately they're actually performing worse than I could have imagined.
Which is what I have been saying.
It will hurt us. It will hurt millions throughout the EU. And if they don't do anything to solve their London problem because of their rules they have stated they will be hit much harder than us. Their rules stop them from taking their business to another city outside the EU. And no city inside the EU has the capability to take over at short notice. I don't think it would even be possible before the end of March.
They either don't understand how serious the situation is, are still just playing hard ball for as long as they can....or the worse scenario is they don't care about the damage caused as long as it damages us.
They have just had a meeting that went nowhere. Negotiated? If there had been negotiations they would have got somewhere.
Lost an argument?Lost the argument already I see.
We aren’t staying in the EU, stop being a childish flounce. We’re not being bullied because we always knew where the red lines were. This is the reality of brexit. Deal with it. Like an adult.
But how would they know?If you'd been following various news outlets you would realise that they have got somewhere.
Lost an argument?
I am trying to have a debate.
There is one reason I could never win an argument with you. It is impossible to win an argument with an idiot.
If you haven't already, read this thread. If you get to the end of it and still think brexit will be fine then fair play to you.
Yes Mr EU. Straight out of the EU rule book they don't keep to themselves.
So answer the same question I have asked you countless times. Would the problem of Ireland be much easier sorting out a trade deal than sorting out the problem with Ireland not knowing what kind of trade deal there will be?
If you disagree I will know that you are just coming out with crap and excuses and will let you argue with yourself from now.

Played Brexiteer bingo reading the replies and was waiting on blue passport for a house.
they've got their red lines they won't cross same as our government and the DUP.
everyone is going to end up suffering but the UK economy will suffer the most.
I think the WTO estimate was 3 million job losses in Europe and 1.6 million in the UK. The 3 million in the EU will be shred between 27 countries however so our hit will be the worse.

These same outlets were saying differences had been covered and a deal was ready to be made. It was as though the talks were to ratify what was already agreed. But the talks didn't last as long as we thought and nothing came from them.
It is starting to get to a time where we need to get worried.
You insult me yet don't expect it back?Ha ha ha. Debating, yeah. That must be why you started your post with a childish insult.
Idiot, yeah. From someone who’s failed to see the reality of what brexit is and always was going to be.
Good one.
12% is 1 in 10?
You insult me yet don't expect it back?
Goodbye child. Find someone else to argue with.
They got 12% in the general election. Now that isn't 12% all over. It is an average. But Bavaria was well below the 10% they got this time.They got 10,1%. Which is 1 in 10.
Less than expected and no one ( or rather less than one hundred and they were mainly media, as opposed to the 350 expected guests ) turned up to their “celebration “ party.
‘München -
Das Wahlergebnis der AfD in Bayern ist schlechter als von der Parteispitze erwartet – und die Schuldigen schnell gefunden: „Hetze der Altparteien, vor allem der CSU“, sagt Katrin Ebner-Steiner, eine Verbündete des Thüringer Rechtsaußen Björn Höcke und mögliche künftige Fraktionschefin im bayerischen Landtag.
Hier alle Ergebnisse der Bayern-Wahl nachlesen
„Da müssen wir das nächste Mal etwas präventiv eingreifen, dass wir keine offenen Flanken bieten können.“ Es klingt fast wie ein Eingeständnis, dass rechte Parolen möglicherweise Wähler abgeschreckt haben.
Feier in der Provinz wird zum Flop für AfD
Und auch die erhoffte Jubelfeier in der niederbayerischen Gemeinde Mamming wird ein Partyflop – anstelle der erwarteten 350 Gäste kommen zunächst weniger als hundert Anhänger. Die Medienleute sind in der Mehrheit.’
They blame the “old parties” especially the CSU for attacking them. They want to do things differently next time to keep their flanks clear. Basically admitting that their right wing slogans frightened people off.
I certainly see a trend against the AfD. The demonstrations against the right are growing and the right wing are increasingly seen as dangerous. I hope the greens and FDP continue gaining ground. We need Jamaica coalitions ( the colours of the Jamaican flag ) as the SPD under Nahles is going down the tubes for the time being.
CDU is black. FDP yellow and the Greens er... green.
Of course I disagree. No point doing a FTA if you are going to fall out over border controls and Trump it straight after.
I see the PM is making a brexit announcement to Parliament at 3:30pm. Sounds serious.
Right now it feels more like it is going to be something negative rather then positive.
Or some handy theatrics to make it look like TM is doing as much as she can to avoid a no deal? This has got political gameplay written all over it.
Governments run throughout the EU as a coalition. When was the last time Germany didn't have a coalition?
I have never trusted the Tories and never will. But at this moment we have nobody we can trust.
They got 12% in the general election. Now that isn't 12% all over. It is an average. But Bavaria was well below the 10% they got this time.
And you are not worried at all?
OK Mart. Just as bad as you saying Ireland wouldn't be easier to solve with a free trade deal in place.
Go join UKIP voting Tony. Won't be replying to either of you again. I can only take a certain amount of crap and have gone well past that limit.
They, AfD, didn’t stand last time and got 0,0%. There were always splinter parties for the far right, but on their own they had problems getting over 5%, which you need to get into Parliament. Together the splinter right wing parties got around 5% last time.
As for Ireland, we have the best free trade agreement possible, but are leaving it because we don’t like the terms. You being one against freedom of movement. That is our problem. We could stay in the FTA as the majority of people in NI and ROI want, but because of mainly English people, there is a problem with the border. We now have to agree on a regulatory framework for the border which English people voted for in their ignorance whilst following the chant “control our borders”. A simple phrase where the lazy voters didn’t bother asking what about Ireland? Should have been dealt before activating article 50, then we would still have time. But, we were told “Brexit means Brexit” and “it’s democracy, get over it”. So whilst the leavers were still popping their Champagne corks, I was on German TV pointing out the problem of the Irish border and the irony of the English pulling the N Irish against their will out of the EU. As predicted, it is a total cock up and the UK just keeps embarrassing itself further.
In the meantime people like yourself blame people like myself and the EU itself, who understood how this worked because we have been crossing borders before and after the EU was formed. We get called liars when we point out the blindingly obvious, and you talk crap about making a new FTA without having first agreed how the border will work. How do you think we can control goods and people before we have decided how controls can take place, or have a FTA with the EU and a differing one with other countries, but still cross the border without checks to see which goods are under the EU FTA and which are under WTO or another FTO?
Rees Mogg has now equated the EU with the Mafia for not giving in and changing their rules for his purposes. The mask has dropped as he went on about them “kneecapping” us for leaving. He should have counted it in that they weren’t going to drop the 4 freedoms for us leaving. A major miscalculation, and he is now winding his victims up against the EU. The guy is a swine and I hope he gets beaten at the next election.

Bit of a nothing address really. Not anything we didn’t know. As Danny Dyer put it, it’s the unfathomable riddle.
Wow Tony - one day you bring in Donald Trump and his expertise in Foreign Affairs and now its the economist Danny Dyer
He wasn’t wrong though was he. His appraisal of David Cameron in the same TV appearance was equally accurate. That’s means he’s been right at least twice more than you. What does it feel like to be lagging behind Danny Dyer?
Given your statements about the ERM, the contents of Geoffrey Howes speech etc. Tony I think you'd know that feeling more than me. What next? Perhaps Michael Barrymore has a view on the Border issue?
How about the Holy Roman Empire? Or maybe a country where working conditions are so bad and work life so awful they have a word specifically for dying at work? You’re at least on the same step as me.
I already explained the first one and as I have spent time in Japan I think I know a little bit more than Wiki man. I bet you get excited if you have a trip to Nuneaton in your little job - is that right Tony?
