Most prob given the plenty of time to break a few more? But shock, horror, we're failing to implement EU law into UK law, (as part of a treaty) and that's a different thing?

I think piddly little environmental issues are different to breaking a withdrawing agreement, so yes.

Surely the law is the law? You either break it or you don't.

I'm not trying to say that this Gov is whiter than white because of their actions.

But don't ever imagine that the EU are.

The lobbyists behind Brexit and unelected PM Cummings have never once wanted a deal with the EU - they just never put that to the public in a referendum or general election as it would be unpopular (see 'easiest deal in history' 'oven-ready deal' 'we hold all the cards' etc). They are now floundering around looking for a scapegoat as to why there is no deal and the catastrophic economic impact and failure of supply chains of no deal that will be quite obvious to everyone in January.

We are being fed a complete cock and bull story from the UK government amplified by wealthy backers who stand to make hay from the tanking of the pound and a completely deregulated UK economy (including poor food standards). It's the average man in the street that will pay for the above but they have been fed the lie that the EU is the devil for so many years from those same sources that this horse**** is sadly falling on fertile ground.

In this case it means welshing on an agreement and breaking the law.

If it was the EU doing it, would you say they are just sticking up for their Union?

Meanwhile, the Home Secretary is saying that a family of 4 could not stop to speak to another family of 4 who they meet in the street because that would be mingling. (They could though go and sit on the next table to them in a pub all night), and that people should be reporting those breaking this to the police.

Or if they are testing their eyesight.

Well that's sorted then. Organize a grouse shooting party with an optician in tow, he could reload the guns or act as beater and test your eyesight?

I'm sure the Tories have already got that one in hand.

Too many thoughts of large 'guns' can lead to excessive beating and ruin your eyesight?
