A nation belittled and treated with contempt by the rest of Europe
Oh dear oh dear, the poor old UK being bullied by the other 27. Yup they have all united together to bully us. It’s all their fault.
Nothing to do with us, as one of the main architects of the EU, suddenly spitting the dummy out and wanting to walk away. And of course, we are demanding no penalty and the fully benefits of the EU whilst tearing up our contribution. The UK in short wants to have it’s cake and eat it.
The whole thing is embarrassing. The UK is making a fool of itself on the European and international stage. We are fast becoming a joke, and a joke with no government.
As for the options. Well one of the options being touted is the Norway deal, which we are told is still on the table - European Free Trade Association (Efta). But it’s looking increasingly unlikely – Norway is looking to find a way of blocking us.
According to Heidi Nordby Lunde, a leading Norwegian politican, allowing Britain into a Norway style deal with the EU is like having an
“abusive partner spiking the drinks and inviting them to a Christmas party”.
She goes on to say that it isn’t in Norway’s interest to have Britain as partners in their deal;
“I think you would mess it all up for us, the way you have messed it all up for yourselves”
So it’s not just the EU that is loosing it patience with us. A great many countries round the globe think we have lost the plot – and the truth is we have. We are seen as the petty little villain no-one wants to be in the same room with.
Meanwhile Tory MP Priti Patel suggested that reports that there could be food shortages in Ireland come a NO DEAL BREXIT should have been used a leverage against Dublin during negotiations over the backstop. How low can we sink?
