EU Project management in Britain, France, Holland, Italy and Germany, I was younger then and more precise with my words, but gob-shite's like you I've found everywhere! Have you run out of arguments?

Have you? Because you seem to have resorted to just hurling abuse around now?
 
Where have I spouted bullshit?

Well to be honest Spanner, almost every post you write... well you did ask?

Can you quote my posts where I state untrue 'facts'

Apart from your post that told me the net immigration levels in Ireland were back up to before the recession, I cant really find any 'facts' at all in your posts, plenty of opinions, which you are entitled to of course!
 
Another one creeping out of the woodwork, where are your arguments? oh forgot you don't have any, just taking aim from behind cover, get in line son!
I'm not your son... I've nothing else to add to the numerous posts that have shown you up for what you are... full of shite.
 
Philip Hammond has called for a rapid response from the EU27 to the prime minister’s offer of a transition deal, and even warned that there could be no air traffic between the UK and the EU if no exit deal of any kind could be agreed

May: I’ve been very clear. We want those negotiations to end - not just the negotiations to end, we want to have an agreement on the future relationship, and our withdrawal – by March 2019, and we will leave the EU on March 2019.

Two gems from the wise ones.
How can the EU not be ever so grateful to the generous offer of a transitional deal - you can't make this up
Surprise, Mrs May, you are leaving in March 2019 unless you withdraw the Art 50.

Come on Brexiters, now seemingly focussed on NAFTA - what are you going sell to the USA which you aren't already selling, come on, what's your plan

Edit: missed this priceless one from Hammond:
worst-case scenario, even a situation where people are not necessarily acting in their own economic self-interest.

That's quite clear, so slink off now like a good lad and leave it to the adults!
I just had a look, seems like this thread is the main reason you're here?

Anyway... Carry on you're mildly entertaining once you get past the drivel, almost Trump like.

You appear to be confusing "bullshit" with "opinions".

"bullshit" is your double claim (as fact) that only the UK and Germany are net contributors to the EU. That's untrue, a flat out, bullshit lie that is easily disproved with facts.

An "opinion" is.. well.. an opinion. It can't be bullshit, it's not claiming to be factually correct, it can't be disproved as bullshit.

Like, I think 99% of your opinions are absolutely bonkers and borderline hysterical but I can't say they're bullshit.

Same difference, at least as articulated by many on this thread... suppose it depends on whether you agree or not, is it really is an opinion, or 'fake news'?

You really are not going to let that one go are you?
How many times are you going to hit a defenceless old man over the head with that?
Its beneath you Spanner, now put it away and lets play nicely!;)

How gracious of you! Right back at you young man!
 
Nigel's my hero!

I gathered that.

Just think, Leave winning was the worst thing that happened to him - then he didn't get his knighthood, then he didn't become ambassador and he became even more irrelevant.
Now he sees a chance to get a bit more relevant as Brexit's not exactly going how he wanted and starts to stir up the rabble again. Another 18 months and he won't even be able to behave like a prat in the European parliament.

He's the Prime Minister in waiting, 'over the water', he's just waiting for Theresa to falter and she may well oblige!

Better get that French Passport sorted quickly

Hey i just passed a comment that's all. You dont seem knowledgeable about the very institution you worked for. That is fair enough considering that politics wasn't your area

:lol: This is the funniest one yet. Nigel 'failed to get elected as an MP 7 times' Farage is next in line for the throne is he? Or when you say 'in waiting' do you mean 'waiting for the approximately 1 million more electable people to get simultaneously hit by a bus' before he can become the PM.

I can't help but feel that Farage (and Trump) hero worshippers are going to feel very let down by their idols when their paymasters have had their fill with them and some potentially less than 'patriotic' truths start to appear.
 
Ruth Davidson. 16.5/1.

She may need to get a constituency in England then as I'm sure the added bonus of toppling a conservative pm would make the snp even more determined to get Indy ref 2 (depending what happens it Catalonia and how shoddy the brexit deal is who knows they may just hold a referendum without westministers approval)

I think I may have popped my clogs by the time Farage is PM or even an MP - no hurry then.
How many MP's do UKIP have again, enough to form a government - oh dear they haven't got any - sorry I didn't realise you meant in Cloud Cuckoo Land

Btw in a 10 billion to 1 chance (your favourite number) that he was elected PM, as far as I know Farage isn't the one granting my French nationality. At least if he was to become PM it would convince me to renounce my British nationality.

Funnily enough I was looking at a video (totally unrelated to politics or Brexit btw )on Youtube when for some reason a video was recommended to watch by Youtube of Farage, which actually was an extended version of the video I posted last week. Thought I'd watch it for a laugh.
Looking at the comments is always the funniest bit , as always, everyone who commented was some UKIP nutter, racist, xenophobe or EU hater, more like a combination of all those but anyway half of them were calling the EU communists and the other half were calling the EU fascists. Is it a requirement for a UKIP supporter to have an IQ under 50?

That's one hell of a negotiation chip the EU may have. If the UK doesn't agree to pay its dues then Europe can ground UK flights from and to Europe. Brexiteers might have to go to Europe by donkey. ;)

It won't be just to Europe, it's worldwide, EU agreement.
They won't go to Europe , they're too frightened of meeting foreigners or that they might not get back in again .
Other problem is the queues at Dover.

Yeah, to be next leader as opposed to future leader it would require an English MP to step down in her favour. Not a probability, hence 16.5/1. On the other hand if it looks a choice between Boris and someone else who could that someone else possibly be? An anti-Boris grouping might consider her the only choice to get behind.

Whats the thinking behind her needing an English constituency? Isn't there a decent argument there that it disenfranchises MPs from the other home countries in that case?
 
The news is just depressing at this point, our goverment despite knowing the conditions for months stamps their feet that its all so unfair.

I wish Hammond would just launch a leadership bid, i feel he'd be much more reasonable in his approach.

Sorry, I was thinking 'safe seat' when I wrote that, which would most likely be English of course. Also imagining the famous tory 'men in grey suits' orchestrating such an event, with the sitting MP promised a seat in the Lords and an easy yet paid life for ever more.
 
It's worth a bet but there's really no chance of her winning as she is unpopular with the undead Tory base.

I also feel like she does relatively well out of her lower profile down south. I've seen little to suggest that Ruth Davidson actually is any good, and has more been in the beneficiary of being in the right place at the right time in Scotland (people tend to ignore her record as leader of the Scottish Conservatives before 2015).

If she had to do more than stick her head up every now and again and take a snipe at Corbyn I think she'd quickly lose popularity.
 
You dont seem knowledgeable about the very institution you worked for

I know that it is becoming increasingly moribund, it is inherently incompetent and has a long history of corruption (See Edith Cresson affair and related Commissioner resignations), that external independent audits are still in short supply and as mentioned recently, the EU Commission itself points out it is estimated there are more than 30 different ways to calculate net figures for budget contributions.(*)

The EU thinks we owe it some money, but it has absolutely no idea how much and no way or working out how much. If and when we do decide to pay it any money it will be as a result of a negotiation not a itemised Bill, this fact is now sinking home with Tusk etc. and he/they really don't know what else to do, except to announce that they follow us over the cliff edge, bringing the rest of the EU crashing down as the remoaners' would have us believe!

((*) Spanner, I know you are reading this, this one's for you!)

Ah yeah I see your point. The optics in Scotland would be horrific though I'd imagine.

I think she has done a good job overall, though she has taken advantage of some good luck like you said. However, she mentioned a few days ago that London conservatives should look to the job Scottish conservatives have done and consider a different platform/ manifesto etc to the national party, to cater for its different population. Whether she would be able to speak and appeal to the Tory base nationwide, I'm not so sure tbh.




Some of the utter ignorance in this thread would genuinely be hilarious if it wasn't so saddening and as I've said before, I'm struggling to see my future in the UK currently (for a few different factors, including nonsense like Brexit and the militancy of some of its most ardent supporters).
