OT. The futures Bright, the Futures Brexit!!!

Far from it, its a very busy pub/hotel in Cornhill, serving rather fine (albeit southern) ales, restored to full-on Victorian decadence. I remember going there when it was still part of an overseas bank many moons ago

Hmmm...if you say so. Looks like the ‘Standing Order’ in Derby...another old bank that Tim - ‘not very nice but dim’ - Martin got his hands on.

Er...she’s a sixty four year old blonde scouser who claims to have been ***ually abused as a child, made a fool of herself on ‘I’m a Celebrity...’ and is a committed Brexiteer. Which bit(s) do you particularly identify with?

I think of all those qualities, being a scouser is possibly the least acceptable

Well I'm certainly prone to making a fool of myself. But other than that, she is of the 'anti'-woke', anti-'cancel-culture' inclination and her opinion is that the BBC (who's future is in theory in her hands) has a 'leaning' (or series of them) rather than a 'balance'. Etc etc

Raab moves from the Foreign Office and is deemed to have been demoted. He now has 2 roles, Lord Chancellor AND Deputy Prime Minister.

Is it really a demotion? Anything happens to BoJo, it's Dom Raab who becomes PM, not Lizzi Truss.

This is a wise move by Boris to offset the risk of being impeached etc, a bit like American presidents appointing someone worse than they themselves are as vice president. Assassinate me and you get him................

As for that **** Frost convincing the EU to sign something - mm actually as has been said, all the current issues are a direct consequence of the type of Brexit the UK has chosen.

But then anybody who quotes the daily Express as a source of accurate information has zero credibility. Planet Thicky must be an amazing place!

Lol. He said, rather substantiating Swale’s point in post #7682. Simplistic, prejudiced and unsurprising.
