I too am a fervent Leaver and have had clashes on here with Remainers / Rejoiners. Since Leaving the UK has tried to get amicable understandings with the EU on various matters but the EU policy by its 'powers that be' is to make amicable agreements impossible even if such intransigence will result in a slightly negative affect on itself. This is all about creating a list of reasons to discourage other countries from Leaving the EU.
I foresee problems for the EU now that its second largest net provider of funds is out, the UK's trailing financial obligations are almost over. No EU member wants to pay funds into the EU budget, they all want to be net receivers of funds. The Covid situation has severely financially stressed the UK but it has had a much worse effect across the EU. The UK is strong enough to recover and is no longer being ripped off in terms of net payments into the EU budget.
It is a big world out there with opportunities aplenty now that the UK is no longer inhibited by being a member of the EU. We can actually trade with solvent entities.

The order-order.com site leaves us in no doubt about who they are naming as the arrested MP but it does so in such a way that it cannot be prosecuted.
Here is a site that actually goes the whole way :- tinyurl.com/47nw8py3

Latest news on Covid, the UK's position in the worldwide list is 201st, that is 200 of the 228 countries have had fewer Covid deaths per million of population than the UK has had, which is scandalous.

The UK is now 202nd in the Covid league. 201 countries have a better record in combatting Covid. This is based on Covid deaths per million of population.
But hey, let's all sing the praises of Boris Johnson and his sheep, they did very well. Forget the plain truth of this pathetic failure and remember the early arrival of the vaccines.
