Brexit talks

[The Bedlington Terrier]

No more from me on this subject sinkov, the new campaign that really matters is now less than one month away.

I will just have to take a step back and watch the unholy alliance of idiots that are ruining this country do their worse.

Only footy matters for me now.

Then we can finish discussing politics in agreement BT, our country IS being ruined by the set of clowns running it. But worryingly for all our futures it looks like the next government will be an even bigger set of clowns, well intentioned Jeremy may be, but I don't see him, Long-Bailey, Thornberry et al being our salvation.

Clowns being the perfect word Sinkov, and we are the idiots laughing at them but suffering, and we'll keep on suffering until our system is changed which will never happen.

Sorry, I forgot add the glorious Diane Abbott to the list of our country's saviours. God help us all.

....... until our system is changed which will never happen.

A change has to come from us , the people ,if we do not want the change it will never happen. The clowns picked by us the people are holding on to what they have each in his own interest. Not only these 'clever sods' yes, they are in power ,we their servants, we support a system that keeps them in power!! Namely 'Capitalism'. Yes, it provides jobs ,money is flowing somehow.But at the end of the tunnel it gets ploughed back into the 'political system',by these multi national companies,and keeps those company's economic interests under a safe governments wing! "" You scratch my back I'll scratch yours !''seems to come to mind ! The government then moves that money to better something, infrastructure ,education ,hospitals etc ....and then a new day starts all over again! But that system still remains !!Take a hint from a book 2000 yrs ago ! " Seek and ye shall find ,knock and it shall be open unto you!''

Good to see David Davis and his team having no files for their latest meeting and him leaving his minions in charge after 15 minutes.
The independent says the EU is threatening to postpone talks.
What are the Foreign Office doing and what have they done in the last 12 months. Not a lot!!

Just more scare-mongering drivel from an ante-Brexit lefty rag OC. The meeting was simply for the EU to set out in detail their demands in the divorce settlement. Our side was not going to respond at this meeting, so had no need of notes or files. On Davis leaving the EU said there was no need for the Chief Negotiator to be in constant attendance, and had no problem with his departure, yet some British newspapers had to make an issue of this non-story.

More interesting and relevant is what German MEP Hans-Olaf Henkel said in the Times this morning. He says Guy Verhofstadt, EU Brexit co-ordinator "now wants to punish the British, full stop. He says he doesn't, but I'm afraid he does. My impression is that Mr Barnier (EU Chief Negotiator) wants to do the same. The reason is simple. They would seek to make sure that Brexit is such a catastrophe that no country dares to take the step of leaving the EU again".

This is what we're up against in these talks, a concerted attempt by a vindictive EU to wreck our economy and our country, so blatant even their own MEPs are pointing it out. Yet lefty rags in this country are shamefully going along with it, helping the EU propaganda machine at every opportunity.

I don't think the Foreign Office has much to do with any of this, Brexit has it's own department and officials.

If things get tough, they can deal with their own nuclear waste we threaten. That should make the negotiations come to life .. or get red hot!

Probably now but at the time of Brexit it was the FO and they had done sweet FA to plan for all options. The vote threw them into chaos and our key European staff departed leaving a void that we don't seem to have filled.

I'd blame Cameron and Osborne for that, the halfwits never for one second thought we might vote to leave. Not sure where the void is, except in the fevered imagination of lefty and BBC journalists. They claim we don't have a plan, we do, they say we're using EU citizens as bargaining chips, we said we'd guarantee their rights even before negotiations began, the EU wouldn't even discuss it, they say we are causing tension in the EU because we won't pay a divorce bill, we have said all along we'll meet our financial commitments, the only thing to be negotiated is how much. And so it goes on, it's to be expected that the EU will spew forth lies in a propaganda war, it's despicable that so much of our media and establishment is complicit in this attempt to wreck the economy of their own country.
