Brexited | the worst threads live the longest

Do you think there will be a Deal or No Deal?


  • Total voters
    194
  • Poll closed .
Just after Labour win the next election. Hospital pass from the Tories to Labour who are promising to make brexit work. It doesn't work. Tories blame Labour for not making it work. Tories win the election after.

Yes, that's how I see it. Tories will have a reset and could even come back more pro-european leaving Starmer holding the Brexit baby.
 
The New Zealand and Australia flags look a bit iffy too.
Ever noticed how the Australian and New Zealand flags aren't all that original? Whoever made them was obviously in a rush since they recycled the British flag in both of them and thought we wouldn't notice. Now why would someone use our flag when creating the flag of another, alleged, "nation"?! Unless, of course, they aren't nations at all. And they were quickly made as a way to build up false evidence, as a defense against those of us who know that Australia doesn't exist and the world is flat.

Unrelated. But also kinda related.

NZ had a flag referendum in 2015. Most voted to keep the existing flag as it had the British flag on it.

They could have had Red Peak and would have voted for it, post Brexit as they saw how small we can be.

A loss. Was a banging flag.

Hilarious that He is actively thinking of emigrating.

that aside he’s clearly been up to something dodgy.

That was my thought too. Coutts spotted something with his account they weren’t comfortable with and pulled the plug. Farage is worried they have or will report him and he’s going down the well trodden witch hunt defence.

The fact this little rat said "could foreign governments from Ukraine or China be pumping money into the accounts of corrupt politicians" :lol: .

If only there was some court to appeal to, say a human rights court of the continent to hold your government to account for legitimate grievances. I hope he physically ends in the state he has helped bring about for the UK political landscape.
 
I'd love to see that piece of shite in prison. Please, if there is any justice in this world, make it so.

I'll buy a bottle of champagne and I hate the stuff.

Boringly, it might be as mundane as him not having enough money in his Coutts piggie bank. They are for what they would term "high net worth" individuals. To put numbers on it, that would be £1m+ invested or borrowed through them or £3m wandering around the account.

That said, if he's failed one of their "know your customer" tests it would explain why other banks (especially if they're linked to NatWest like Coutts) don't fancy taking over as his banker. If something has been flagged they aren't actually allowed to tell him what it is, in case it compromises other investigations - which I guess would be upsetting but it's Farage so whatever.

It'll be the second point for sure. For no bank to be touching him it can only be that.

As a complete aside relating to his video the EU didn't come up with the concept of PEPs. It just shows he will spout any anti EU bollocks knowing someone will believe it or, he really has no clue what he's talking about.

I am guessing the reason is an inability to explain satisfactorily the source of funds. Consultancy arrangements with opaque offshore companies, that kind of thing.
 
It was a very naughty phone.

The most vital starting point for the UK government is to understand what has actually been voted for because it seems quite apparent that very few in the HoC actually do and a lot of the electorate believe what they are told to believe.

Starmer and Sunak both act as if they haven't a clue of how the real world actually works.

Send them on a course for a few years : First lesson : What is a custom's union and how does it work? Second lesson: Which regulations do we have to comply with in order to sell our products to other countries. Have hundreds more to follow.

Seven years from the referendum and nobody seems to have a clue.

This is not managed by the PM this is manged by consultants, I was speaking to someone that does custom clearances for a living. They said we're really close to having our side extremely stream-lined the other side (Euro Zone) is really tied down in red tape.

They also said that it's very bad in France at then moment food prices are at 18% on average higher.

But they have low mortgage rates, so thats a plus maybe them 20 fixed rate help ;-), but they still need to slow inflation.

Need to get back on the .... Brexit... Gggrr train.

The Uk are currently doing no checks on imports from the EU. That's probably why it's streamlined . That is illegal and they're due to start in October.

Checks by EU or any other places in the world have to have all the necessary paperwork and compliances in place. Australia for example is a nightmare compared to the EU; Anywhere is.
Spent 30+ years in international trading dealing with customs practices worldwide. Some countries are great fun (not).

Of course prior to Brexit there was no need for checks between the EU and the UK.

Food prices have not gone up that much in France. Fuel went up for a while but coming down . Gas and electricity bills almost unchanged

Mortgage rates you can get fixed rates for the term of a mortgage. My daughter's mortgage is unchanged . She has about 11 years to go at the same low rate.
Also savings rates are higher here with less restrictions on withdrawals.

If and when the UK change their standards to UKCA from the CE - the fun and games will begin for goods. Plus ETIAS entry/exit system to look forward to as well.
2024-2027 will see Brexiters really wishing they hadn't voted the way they did, just softening them up at the moment.

What about the asteroid?
 
Country is crying out for change and they keep regurgitating the same tired old bollocks. Rayner doesn't seem very bright.

Sounds as thick as mince.
She does realise that the 'oven ready deal' was just leaving the EU - which the UK did and the Trade agreement (TCA) was not the same thing and she actually voted for that. Doesn't matter whether the Tories oversaw, Labour oversees it or Lord Buckethead oversees it, it is never going to be a benefit for the UK.
Unsurprisingly the UK cannot rejoin on the same terms it left on.

The future is dim.
 
If only we could predicted this. Who knew? :rolleyes:
 
Asked if labour shortages and resulting inflationary pressures had been caused by Brexit, Eustice said: “I think we have to stop seeing everything through the prism of Brexit. This isn’t because of Brexit. But it is because of the failure of our post-Brexit immigration policy.

SO close :lol: :lol:
 
Such an interesting article.

Away goes the train up British workers to ensure they get high wages etc etc and in comes reciprocal visa schemes with some of the poorer members of the EU (with young people who will be more willing to accept lower wages than their peers in western and Northern Europe no doubt).

May blamed for the lack of reciprocal visa arrangements even though her deal was voted down and Johnson took over the negotiation and was the one who signed the deal.

Classic stuff.

A spokesperson for the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs said: “We are committed to protecting high animal welfare standards globally, as the prime minister recently emphasised in open letter to British farmers. We have not lowered our food, animal welfare or environmental standards in order to accede to CPTPP and there have been no imports of eggs from CPTPP members to the UK since 2015.

The RSPCA has accused the government of a “race to the bottom for animal welfare standards” as conventional battery systems were banned in the UK in 2012. The CPTPP trade deal is due to be signed on 16 July.


Thérèse Coffey winning the race to the bottom.
