Make of that what you will but it seems clear the strategy must be go past the no deal deadline at the end of June then really start negotiating and look for a fudge that can be sold both sides of the channel

I wish he'd died before he got old.
It will make things more difficult though, in terms of taking equipment abroad etc, but yeah obviously big bands will have very little issues as they will have people to deal with that.
My mate runs a filming company and whenever they have to go outside the EU it is apparently very frustrating with the forms they need to fill in, etc.
To be fair the guy standing next to him was on the sex offenders register for accessing child porn - being a bit gammony seems mild in comparison
Used to like the Who.
Tell Daltrey the group is often pronounced the WOO in France. Hopefully he won't come.

You mean it would be OK if it was a Smoked Irishman or an Asian Banana who said it..
C'mon.....Racism is Racism is Racism

The term gammon was coined by a white journalist and is about the flushed face of a person who's in the middle of ranting. So.......no?
But if racism is more than just the use of words but also the history behind them and the deaths, imprisonments and harassment that also follow with those words then....also no.
The awful N-Word is frequently used in the States by Afro-Americans against other Afro-Americans when wanting to insult someone.
Do Black people get a visibly flushed face when they're ranting ??
Would you, personally, ever dream of describing Black people as ' Gammon ' ??
Is it OK then if ' Gammony ' people use the N-Word about Black people because Afro-Americans use it ??
Give it up - don't try to defend the use of anything, and I mean anything, racist.
What have black people and the N-word got to do with this. It's a british term used between white british, it's pejorative but it has nothing to do with racism, black people or the N-word.
Whataboutism. It's origin is as a pejorative slur against African Americans during a period of time when said African Americans were bought and sold to work as slaves.
Depends on the black person just like it does white people. So yes. What a daft question.
This is the non sequitur to rule all non sequiturs. Once again "gammon" is a reference to angry white old men turning flush complaining about stuff like just personally don't like, usually on mass media with their words heard by millions. The n word was a racial slur used to dehumanise African Americans during the time of slave trading and has existed since then through decades of discrimination, physical attacks and even murders in silence. Do try and keep up.
But, for shits and giggles let's pretend that the two terms are even related. No. A white person calling another white person by a white racial slur is not the same as a white person calling a black person a black racial slur. That's when something called "racist language" then occurs. I can draw a picture for you if it's difficult to understand.
How the feck do you even think that makes any sense, unless you're either trolling or that far up your arse you are ranting at your screen whilst your face goes all gammony.
If this was meant to be your version of a mic drop you should have maybe spent more time making sure that the previous sentences before it weren't a massive load of shite.
Shut up you gammon
That is the worst thing I have ever read.
Are you seriously using that pejorative slur to associate the whiteness of snow with a white persons skin tone? Do black people get visibly cold when they touch snow?
So desperate to be offended ey, snowflake?
I can’t be racist, some of my best friends are gammon.
And I haven't eaten pineapple since.
Black people can be gammons too.
First the Karens compared Karen to the N-word, are the gammons gonna do the same?

Did you miss the post that spawned this?
I read it, I asked the question in a general sense because that was the only I'd seen gammon compared to the n-word.
This is the most gammon thing I have ever read.
Ah, similar meaning then.
Jesus.
Lots of gammon on display in here tonight.
Black people have appropriated the term to remove its power. I guess they can use it to insult each other but generally it isn't used that way. It means something totally different than when a white person uses it as a racist insult/term.
I've never seen a black person ranting about Brexit but that aside just because people described as gammons tend to be white, middle aged men doesn't make the term racist any more than it is ageist or sexist. It is an insult for sure.
You know the answer to this.
Gammon is insulting an attitude and opinion and not a race. Uncle Tom is an insult that only applies to black people but it isn't a racist term. It is a description of an attitude/opinion.

Just out of interest I looked through the rest of his post history. A summary is:
a) stuck up for Dominic Cummings repeatedly
b) posts calling people remoaners
c) posts complaining about getting warned for making a sexist comment.
d) posts suggesting that the corona virus escaped from a Chinese lab - backed by dodgy YouTube videos.
No wonder he hates the term gammon. He couldn’t be more gammon if someone covered him in salt and cracked an egg on him.
This is a bit of a "Leopards ate my face" situation
Just in this case, the leopard is pleading people to come back, because hes starving and there are fewer faces to eat
I genuinely wonder beyond a few tabloid headlines how big an issue this is?
What % of British people refuse to eat chicken if they go to the USA
And given that chlorine wash is accepted and used widely with vegetables in the EU how many people specifically find sources that avoid it?
For sure it will create some bad headlines and I think attention to farming animal welfare in any trade deal will probably suffer as a result of to many headlines being focused on chlorinated chicken.

It’s banned in the EU as it’s seen as a substitute for poor welfare standards for chickens. The EU have pushed for welfare standards to be higher instead. It’s not the chorline bit they have concerns about but that it basically is a cop out for poor farming standards.
( I know - I literally quoted that in my post) and as I say - how many people really care about that - I'm not aware of swathes of UK tourists refusing to eat chicken in America because of lower farming standards.
A lot of the farmers in this country are concerned. They have adhered to strict rules on animal welfare and with this, it is a bit of a slap in the face. They will be affected by imports such as this.
