What annoys me is their repeated use of "The country's will" implying that they didn't win by a ridiculously tight margin.
Brexited | the worst threads live the longest
- Thread starter Silva
- Start date
And a new poll shows a majority of actual voters would vote Remain if the referendum was re-held now. What's your point?
Or go slightly longer without entirely contradicting yourself.
There's an interesting constitutional question here.
It seems like both sides ( Gina Miller and the Government) agree that Brexit means the stripping of people's rights. Does Westminster actually have the legal right to strip Scots of their rights under the devolution agreements? And if they don't then Brexit becomes an even bigger cluster feck.
Just as well the UK was fair regarding immigration in the 50s and 60s - former colonies being more privileged than others when the UK needed to rebuild after the war or was that a guilt complex
So what is your point then, by the way I'm still waiting for those laws, think it is 8 or 9 months now
Actually the Maltese have the least chip on their shoulder then everybody. We preferred colonisation and starvation rather then integration with Italy during WW2 (it was more the case that we want things in our terms and not according to what some tinpot dictator state but anyway), an act that earned the entire country the George Cross. The Maltese still speak in English which is valued as much as our own language, the George Cross is still on our flag and British expats are pretty much valued in the country.Having said that, the British had never committed any massacres on our turf and although blatant discrimination were made, our situation was relatively better (although still way below the poverty line) then other colonies. Things would have been probably different if we were treated the same way as the Indians were.
My point is that if you think that the hurt of colonisation had gone away then you're deeply mistaken and that will have an impact on any trade deals made between the UK and the commonwealth. You have how that influences talks. I personally know Maltese people who are hired on behalf of American/British companies to discuss deals with Middle Eastern companies for the simple reason that no American/British would be able to get a deal of them just because they are Americans/British. They wont trust American/British citizens but they do trust us because we've got a good relationship with them.

“My organisation supported Brexit for several reasons but the main reason was to bring people from abroad to help our industry to survive.”
Is this for real?
Curry one of the Uk's favourite dishes.
It is for real. They were hoping that Brexit would mean they would bridge the talent gap regarding curry chefs by loosening the rules for non EU migrants from India etc. It will probably happen eventually.
It's another case of the gullibles believing a word of any Brexit campaigner.
Presume they will loosen the rules for Chinese chefs , Kebab chefs and even French chefs if FoM is stopped.
Vital services for the UK.
So much for the liberal light leading the EU.

They belived the bull that @Nick_0208_Ldn is spouting, that an end to FOM from Europe would bring about an easier time for those outside the EU. It was just another leave lie
I grew up in the area and my mum is still living there in walking distance. Apparently a lot of camera teams visited the area during the last days, because someone made a short internet clip about the construction of this wall. All I care about is, that the astro-turf is finished when I visit her the next time.
£ recovering nicely
Oh No's
They should get on well, both two-faced
Maybe he works alphabetically.
Doesn't mean anything, I'm sure.
you're probably right.
I will start to panic when it is revealed that he hit Kim Jong Un up before us.
Well he did call Mexico which for Trump is pretty close
I notice that Ireland and the UK are the first of the European leaders.
True, but there again that's not quite surprising isn't it? No one likes him in mainland Europe

Make the most of it.
Theresa May was quite critical about him too. Maybe you missed that.
You know how theresa may is. At one point shes remainer, at another point she is a leaver. At one point she's ridiculing some idiot in parliament about some water pumps from Germany. At another point she appoints him foreign secretary. Trump might think that since she criticized him he might as well be kissing his arse pretty soon. Also trump is best buddies with mr brexit. He might even offer him a job

He should start bombing Yemen, she seems to lose her voice when that happens.
Arse kissing isn't her thing. Surprised you hadn't noticed.
Maybe you have missed alot what she said which contrasts greatly to what shes doing. By the end of her political career you will probably surprised of the number of uturns she will keep on doing. Its quite a long list already.
U-turns are not arse kissing.
Not sure she's done anything but arse kiss since she got in tbh.
Not that she's had much choice mind, but its been all oooh India this, China that and so on.
Give over. She doesn't act like that and you know it.
She does
Well lets agree to disagree. Thatcher would have put her party in place and she would have done what she thought was good for the country. May is far from a thatcher
In the past week alone she's been gushing over both India and the US and had the Chinese VP over for some lovely trade talks where Hammond promised a 'golden era' of relations.
She has to do it - she knows she needs a deal out of some and or all of them - but she's been globally kissing arse since she got the job.
Its not a criticism, and anyone in her shoes dealt her hand would have to do it, but it is what it is.
There was some things she could have done better. For example she could have avoided putting davis and boris in such powerful roles. The country needs and deserves better then them
