All part of Theresa Dismay's plan IMO, waste as much time as possible knowing MP's don't want a No Deal Brexit,

+ with not enough time to negotiate, she's hoping they will vote for her deal.

Lets hope they don't and we leave with no deal.

There is a huge difference in economies but either the Uk or German economies are tiny on a global scale.

The EU economy 2017 and US were the second and third largest by a bit to China. Difference is US an EU are consumer economies in an advanced stage of consumption. Uk or Germany are tiny bit players on there own but as part of a trade block they are world leaders.

You say they cant get act together but thats just wrong, on a trade basis. They have set out clear trade agreements that countries have to, will and want to fall in line with. Hence the efforts to sort out the shambles now. 

 

 

We are only in this shambles because a remainer and obedient lap dogs behind the scenes manouvered us into it! 

Don't attempt to rush this situation, disMay along with all of the other poor things need their holidays as frightening times loom at the ballot box.

For all you followers of Brexit, and what,s REALLY happening in politics (the stuff the BBC do not tell you) I suggest you visit https://order-order.com.....   Guido Fawkes.  Real name Paul Staines, he,s a political blogger leaning to centre-right! You will find comments on there that reveal whats really happening. He has contacts throughout politics, and he has NEVER been succesfully sued! Don,t just think about it, check him out!

It turns out that Sadiq Khan’s grandstanding New Year’s display wasn’t quite as open as he likes to claim. Despite his relentless self-promoting social media campaign to flog his #LondonIsOpen slogan, Sadiq decreed that only music from EU artists was welcome for his big vanity project. Has Sadiq forgotten that over two thirds of Londoners who were born abroad aren’t from the EU..?

Any illusions Ireland might have had that the EU is going to reward them in some way for being its Brexit patsy have evaporated today with the news that the European Commission is pressing ahead with its plan to abolish national vetoes over a swathe of taxation issues. Removing one of the last major hurdles towards an EU-wide tax policy…

Ireland will be particularly hard hit by the changes as their competitive corporation tax rate is central to their impressive growth rates. The EU does not like tax competition or regulatory competition because they expose its own glaring inefficiencies. Hence why their long-term goal is for unaccountable commissars to set all the taxes for 500 million people – and collect them too. It’s only a matter of time before Ireland starts to feel the costs of the EU far more heavily than the benefits…

Straight from the Guido Fawkes website.....and he is rarely wrong!

I follow the Irexit movement on Facebook, and it is slowly gathering momentum. 

I stick by my previous prediction, the EU's days are numbered. Which is probably what the EU army is all about.

Number 10’s DUP charm offensive appears to have fallen flat, with DUP Westminster leader Nigel Dodds releasing a statement following lunch with the PM today, confirming that in his party’s view May’s deal still “flies in the face of the Government’s commitments on Northern Ireland”. Dodds also hit out at “nonsense propaganda” about a hard border, arguing that it was “becoming clearer by the day that no one is ever going to construct a border”. He’s not wrong.

Downing Street have been focusing their efforts on the DUP in the hope that moderate Tory Brexiteers will fall into line if the DUP’s concerns over the backstop are assuaged. Thatdodds-objections-e1546530971823-540x339.jpg?resize=540%2C339&ssl=1 is not going to happen without legal changes to the Withdrawal Agreement and the backstop in particular. Not how Downing Street wanted to start off the year…

Again from Guido Fawkes site....Don,t you just love the loyal Northern Irish?

More than a bit of truth in that!

TORY-MEMBERS-MAYS-DEAL-NO-DEAL-copy.png?resize=540%2C328&ssl=1

Theresa May’s hopes that her MPs will have come back from their Christmas breaks in their constituencies feeling more sympathetic towards her Brexit deal have been dealt a fresh blow by the latest round of ESRC Party Members data. The YouGov study found that in a three-way choice, 57% of Tory Party members would back no deal, while only 23% would support her deal. Just 15% supported remaining in the EU outright…

The backstop was particularly unpopular, with only 11% of Tory Party members saying that they thought the backstop made sense at all. Not surprising when the UK, EU and Ireland have all committed to not putting up a hard border whatever happens. May is going to need more than just “Operation Figleaf” to get her deal through… Source Guido Fawkes...

That'll maybe give her more time to delay and give away free houses to rescued migrants so they get added to the electoral register of voters to vote remain if there is a second referendum- ahead of our own people waiting for homes who might vote leave. Every little helps.

They will fit in well with the 2 Million Blair/Brown invited in...............

DESPITE BREXIT....PMI DATA UK UP,  EUROZONE DOWN!

December services PMI numbers are out, for the UK it was 51.2, compared to 50.4 in November; estimates were for 50.7. So the UK surprised on the upside and is rising…

In the Eurozone the number was also 51.2 compared to 53.4 in November, with Germany at 51.8 (November was 53.3), France dropped significantly to 48.7 (November 55.1). European optimism about the economy is declining..

The UK economy grew 0.6% quarter over quarter in Q3 which makes for annual growth of 1.5%. The French economy grew 0.3% quarter over quarter in Q3 which makes for an annual increase of 1.4%. They’ll want to keep that cross channel trade flowing…

The UK has been ranked the world’s second most powerful nation despite Brexit. The Henry Jackson Society‘s Audit of Geopolitical Capability used a model involving four attributes, 33 indicators and 1240 potential data observations and placed the UK after the US but slightly ahead of China.

The Audit’s Chief Analyst, James Rogers, said that the UK voting to leave the EU “has had no discernible impact on the UK’s fundamental ability to apply itself around the World”, but does recommend increased R&D spend and armed forces’ projection capacities to prevent the UK falling behind, particularly in light of China’s naval buildup. Politicians who like to call Britain a small island in the North Atlantic would do well to read the report in full

I know, who'd have thought the guardian would include a pro brexit piece, even if there was a counter jibe at the end. 

The BBC News, and Political Current Affairs departments have more Ex-Guardian employees than from any 3 other newspapers! Says a lot about the so-called BBC "impartiality"!
