This just about sums it up

I'd laugh, but that's exactly what Cameron did: Got us into this situation, said he wouldn't resign, then focced up and walked away leaving others to try to sort out the mess he'd left us with... :(

Cameron just joined a long list of those that resigned of those that did the Blair went to war in Iraq, Brown  pensions. Cameron dropped us in the sh*t and resigned. 
Strikes me what we need is a Prime minister with common sense and some bottle and actually listens to the people of this country, but going through the whole shower of every party that presently inhabit parliament none spring to mind.

Here's an item from a business column in yesterday's London Evening News, word for word :

'There's still no clarity on whether EU regulators will accept UK made medicines which haven't undergone tests on EU soil. So British firms will have to build testing labs on the continent to carry out replica tests to those done in Britain. AstraZeneca, one of our better prepared multinationals has already built a lab in Sweden to do this (pointless) duplicate work. But have all our other manufacturers? Considering such Brexit measures have cost AZ £40 million it's highly doubtful smaller firms will have done. Such situations are repeated across every industry. '


This isn't Project Fear.  It's not even as if the new jobs will be in the UK. They'll be Swedish.

It say's that there's no clarity on whether EU regulators willl accept them. So they might or they might not.
 It then says British firms will have to build testing labs on the continent. Surely they might or they might not?.

But this is for transition, starting end of March 2019.....


What is certain, is that a No Deal result means they will.

Equally, EU medicines which have not undergone testing in the uk may or not be accepted here, so the european firms will have to build testing labs in the UK. Such situations are repeated across every industry  :lol

So they might or they might not.

Exactly, that’s the whole point YamFazFan.  May has a deal, if accepted there will be relatively smooth transition.


If we crash out, then everything is up in the air.   
Don’t forget the EU is 25% of global GDP.  And it’s on out doorstep.


 


Watch this – note at 15 seconds – “we can choose to leave with no deal, or we can risk no BREXIT at all, or we can choose to unite and choose the best deal that can be negotiated”


Continued full membership of the EU – the best deal of all – is still an option.


Also, Ms May is well aware of this – continued membership of the EU kills the Scottish Indy Ref 2 stone dead, and though the DUP want to leave, they’ll accept it as their electorate voted to remain and it guarantees the future of NI within the UK but with no Irish border.


They just have to plough through this, for a few weeks or whatever, until we all realise that BREXIT just is not really possible.  That is not possible without serious consequences for the whole UK.


The REMAIN majority in the Tory party must now move to kill the BRIXTEERS.


So says VNA.  But really anything can happen now. :\ :\

Yes, but with a ratio of 27:1. It all makes perfect sense doesn't it :rolleyes


What is really getting my goat at the moment (to borrow a phrase from elsewhere) is that this is turning into a Tory internal fist fight again. Yes John Major's  'Bastards' are still there trying to wrestle control of the party. While the rest of the country is going up in flames, all they care about is who gets to be leader, which is where this all started

Hopefully we'll live long enought to recieve their thanks. I expect they'll be praising their forebears for having the wisdom and insight to see what a corrupt undemocratic racket the whole thing was.

Sometimes, reading this thread is like watching the history channel, with all its repeats from the whingeing, whining losers of Remain  :lol


The only important thing right now is what does this draft deal actually mean? All the discussion on telly is about the manoeuvring of a bunch of conniving, self-interested politician twats and their careers.


Give us in depth discussion in the media, then give us a vote: This deal or no deal. Remain is a historical artefact.

I'm sure I voted Leave. I was the first one in the queue that morning. I'd camped out all night with my sleeping bag and my flask of hot tea :b . I was first and mtread and VNA were second and third respectively. Fortunately the voting percentages evened up a bit during the day :lol

I voted no in common market vote in the 1970's and my opinion has not change on that. Voted NO, NINE ,NON  to staying in the EU not heard any thing yet to make me change my mind from politician, experts or a certain member north of the border most of it is tainted by bullsh*t or bias one way or the other. Would be good if some experts could spell it out with no bullsh*t or bais. The whole of Brexit has proved the old saying of when do you know when a politician speaking with forked tongues, answer when their mouths are moving.

Look, I've found another bit. Let me brush some of the mud off. Yes, it's a classic illustration of how some people thought back then.
