Brexited | the worst threads live the longest

Do you think there will be a Deal or No Deal?


  • Total voters

  • Poll closed .
What exactly does get Brexit over the line mean?

Brexit was over the line when we left, what does it mean to Brexiters?

When the first unicorn is spotted overtaking you on the M25.

Try and find a Brexiter who has got even the vaguest idea of what they've actually voted for.

I actually don't know what the Irish media are rambling on about. Any time I've gone shopping I've had no issues getting veg, loads of stock. It was far worse during early Covid.

Just tomatoes and peppers seem to be an issue where I am, everything else is a normal.
 

Does that mean that now the UK will / can channel all services, goods in Northern Ireland and make it some sort of EU market heaven? Maybe it's not that straight forward though.

I thought what Rishi Sunak was supporting was basically 2 trade relationships with Northern Ireland so at the end of the day, it changes nothing for Northern Ireland, doesn't it?
 
So a reworded Protocol which basically means the same thing with a little more trust and the suggestions the Eu made two years ago.

Will the DUP and ERG buy it? If not back to square one.

If the UK implement the Protocol and of course stay in the ECHR then they could take part in the Horizon programme which if it hadn't been for the ERG and DUP and Johnson they could have done two years ago.

Anyway the government still treating the electorate as imbeciles:
Sunak says being in single market and UK makes Northern Ireland 'world's most exciting economic zone'

How many will fall for this? Just think - just over two years ago the whole of the UK was in the "world's most exciting economic zone."
Wait, is he saying northern ireland can be what the whole uk was before brexit?

Yes. He thinks so. But it has been since the UK left. Also it's not quite the same. Anyone with an eagle eye will spot the differences. Which is probably why the ERG and DUP will object to it.
The Stormont break I like which means that in order to object to any new EU law the DUP have to be in place in Stormont.

Endless discussions which will probably set the thing back to square one.

It can't be the same. He mentioned 2 channels. That's not the same as before. One channel that are for goods going to the EU will still be subject to full inspection, if I'm understanding it correctly.

Goods from Great Britain (England/Scotland/Wales) that are destined for Ireland or the rest of the EU will have to go through the red lane when they arrive in Northern Ireland. Anything destined just for Northern Ireland from GB will pass through the green lane. This is subject to the UK providing the data etc to the EU.

A similar idea was suggested by the EU but turned down before. Anything produced in Northern Ireland that is destined for the EU has to comply with EU standards and have the necessary documentation.

A further complication will happen if the Uk change their standards. If goods are produced in Northern Ireland for the GB market (after the change) they will need to be certified for that market - if they produce goods for Ireland/the EU then they will have to be certified for that market as well. Double certification is costly and not such a blissful paradise.
 
Glad someone told this idiot to shut up and then she barks on about humility in politics when her and the man she shags Richard Tice have been stirring up hatred everywhere they go.



Love the way she acts all offended when it was her that made the rude interruption in the first place. Dipshit grifter.
 
The most ridiculous parts of the Northern Ireland Protocol issue were firstly, that there never seems to be any concern about what goods could enter the UK or GB from Ireland or the rest of the EU through Northern Ireland. Secondly the DUP brought up an issue the other day saying they couldn't sell to GB because of the NIP. You can sell what you like , dear chaps. Furthermore Labour bought into this argument.

Pff.

Are Labour about to be sideswiped here? Starmer is nailed to the BiB mast, is it beyond the realms that the Tories switch it onto themselves as the party that is trying to fix?
 
I will never vote Tory again (although i did for a long time until Covid really), but if they pull this off, it'll be tragic and politically-brilliant at the same time. I get why Labour haven't gone anti-Brex the last few years, and didn't see this coming - but surely they should've?

They should have from the beginning - I don't remember either Corbyn or Starmer being ardent remainers or making passionate speeches about the EU pre- referendum. There were a few Labour pro-EU speakers before and after the referendum but very little from the leadership.

My local Aldi hasn’t got even 1 cucumber for at least a week. Shortage of tomatoes compared to usual. Loads of peppers though

Oh I wasn't even thinking about those details, just the fact he seems to be saying that having access to uk market and eu market is a great thing for northern ireland. I mean, that was basically the situation of the whole uk, so if it's so great and full of opportunities, why leave the eu at all...

Exactly.

But he did also mention the opportunities of Brexit but we still don't know what they are.
 
I have a friend in liverpool who had a collectibles store and he closed this week after 15 years. Most of his sales were online to the eu and because of the extra custom charges, his costumers changed to german and french stores. If you tell him about brexit opportunities I think he would punch you in the mouth.

It's cheaper for me to buy mature cheddar from our English store then to by any shit dutch cheese from the supermarket. In that respect I haven't noticed any change.

Obviously, no one wants English cheese, christ.
 
Good luck! I need to improve a lot on my actual Spanish, but I think I will make myself fluent by then as the deadline/earliest opportunity approaches
Nice one, good luck with that. I'm sure you'll make it if you want to, it's just a matter of forcing yourself to make a prat of yourself multiple times until you get it right.
 
By the sounds of it this is the best the UK are going to get from the EU. Its pretty much back this agreement or we are back to square one and endlessly going round in circles until Labour take over and the cycle begins again.

What happens if Parliament vote the framework through but those at the DUP who say no everything don't back it?

Phew! If there's one issue we were worried about, it was the price of English cheese in the Netherlands. We can breathe easily now.

Hopefully tell the DUP to feck off and that if they don't get back to power sharing, their salaries will be stopped.

the deal will pass in parliament but they won’t return to Stormont. Which at this point is exactly where I think we are heading

Perhaps he's talking about the exciting backdoor action to the UK that will be going on.
