They seem to have stopped two months ago.

Gordon R Posted March 20, 2019 Report Share Posted March 20, 2019 Well the handgun ban worked so well in the UK that none are currently in circulation - except for London, Manchester, Liverpool, Birmingham, Bradford etc etc. - so banning does work. Vive Macron. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raja Clavata Posted March 20, 2019 Report Share Posted March 20, 2019 I read somewhere that Macron was making a comeback in popularity - some reporting is truly shocking, agreed.

oowee Posted March 20, 2019 Report Share Posted March 20, 2019 3 hours ago, Rewulf said: Small but important 😄 Why ? Really, makes you wonder what you see in this country, we are so small and insignificant ? Because its a debt that the UK agreed it will pay. You were suggesting earlier negotiating a new deal from outside the EU. This will require all countries to agree. Some countries will need to be encouraged by the EU (Paid) to do a deal. That will be expensive. Let alone demands that Spain and France could request. Simple fact is we will get a better deal negotiated from within than your suggestion that we do this from the outside using a Norway or Canada deal as a temporary solution. 42 minutes ago, Dekers said: I don't care how much short term pain there is I want OUT on 29!

But as you suggest all this is about perspective. I would expect a "hard line Brexiteer" to view my position as one of pretty extreme Liberal but in fact through the tests I've taken my views are more or less centre (left of centre on some topics, right on others). I think the only reason anyone is hell bent on a "hard" brexit is because they know it is the only option that will actually deliver on the referendum result. Leaving the EU can only be done via 2 options. 1. A free trade deal (the EU have ruled this option out) 2 a hard brexit ( of course hard and soft brexit only became a thing when remain lost, its rhetoric made up by remoaners to frustrate actually leaving the EU) It really is as simple as that! 9 minutes ago, oowee said: Because its a debt that the UK agreed it will pay.

Trump will give us a good trade deal, I say stuff the EU, they have acted like the mafia while trump holds a hand of friendship out, love him or hate him, I'd rather deal with him than the EU any day.

I disagree, weve tried dealing from the inside for nearly 3 years, we got BRINO offered, a bill for £39bn and nearly 2 years of transition, with an Irish backstop clause that tears the Union apart. I dont think thats been beneficial at all. Maybe when European business suffers in the event of no deal, they might be forced to think differently. They are still acting like the mafia running a protection racket, its got to stop, it will stop. The problem with the EU hierarchy is they are not answerable to anyone, no accountability if they mess up, no one is going to sack them are they? People in that position dont care what happens, they are dangerous, but not undefeatable , you just have to know what youre dealing with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnfromUK Posted March 20, 2019 Report Share Posted March 20, 2019 I read Comrade Corbyn is going to Brussels tomorrow ahead of May. Why don't we revoke his passport. He is not in Government and has no business talking with anyone on behalf of the British nation. Corbyn, Blair - whoever next? Abbott? The Archbishop of Canterbury (another lefty)? Rab C Nesbitt?
