    We live in dangerous times

    It was a worry when Macron unleashed rubber bullets on the yellow vest protesters. Now Putin has unleashed the police on demonstrators who are being blatantly deprived of the opportunity to vote for opposition candidates. Nothing new for Putin there as he sent two assassins armed with the deadly toxin Novichok to Salisbury to eliminate someone he regarded as a traitor to Mother Russia. We are under threat in this country as long as Parliament continues to subvert the democratic process by refusing to deliver Brexit. I would prefer to leave with a good deal but that requires the EU to re-open negotiations on the unacceptable Withdrawal Agreement and the Remainers in Parliament to stop blocking any attempt to leave the EU. Our society is rupturing and zero hour or October the 31st is rapidly approaching.

    It's going to be an 'interesting' three months Outwood, the Remainers Last Stand, once we're out on October 31st they know they've lost, any attempt to get back in afterwards would mean scrapping the pound for the euro, increased contributions and no opt outs or rebates. Any remainer attempts to take us back in will never fly with the public, and the Remainers know it. Once we're out, we're out for good, and right at this moment the Remainers don't really know how they're going to keep us in, but they're desperate, they have no moral compass whatsoever, and they have a contempt for democracy, they'll think of something, you can be sure of that.

    Europe is going to hell in a hand cart governments turning on citizens Russia meddling in everything its time to get out. What the remainers who will do anything to keep us in that cesspit fail to grasp is we can't stay in now its gone past that. The best we can hope for is a good deal but that is unlikely as its not in the EU's best interests. How do remainers think the EU would treat us if we turned round and now said we are staying it certainly wouldn't be a 'welcome back lets just carry on as we were before' you can guarantee the Eu would make us pay in some way contribution increases, force the euro on us.
    personally I think that the best option now is leave with no deal start opening talks with the US and others on trade deals and let the EU come to us for a trade agreement.
    Right from the start we have been too soft in negotiations, our strongest bargaining chip No Deal should have been front and centre from the get go. its as bad for the EU as it is for us if not more so for them.
