I wonder if "the economy will collapse as soon as the referendum is over if leave wins" rings any bells. Not one of George Osborne's finest pronouncements or David Cameron "There are absolutely no discussions about an EU Army" or (admittedly things have changed on this due to Syria ) " There are no plans to allow Turkey to join the EU"....Why then over several years have Turkish nationals been able to apply for employment visas as prospective members? Remember the farce before Romania and Bulgaria joined, if you claimed to be self-employed you would get a visa (one legged window cleaner etc), exactly the same.

What is the correlation between Turkey joining EU and Turkish nationals to apply for employment visa a prospective members? True that under EU terms Turkish national has right to apply for enterpreneur visa (not employment) but subject to approval from government and government has full control on to grant the visa or not. Business model should be convincing and should add value to Britain. It is not an automated right. Employment visa is only granted if they had worked for a certain period in UK with a work permit again subject to approvals.Interestingly all other EU members is supposed to open this route but only UK enables this.. Turkey joining to EU is the biggest lie i have ever heard which was promoted by EU Edited by blackheatheagle (03 Apr 2019 2.08pm)

The challenge is to persuade Jeremy Corbyn to sign up to Theresa May’s non customs union customs union and not call it a customs union. This would put the UK in a customs union with the EU which would then not be called a customs union...... Errrr Yes Minister

This move from May is utter bollocks. There is no time let alone will to remotely get on the same page with Corbyn. She also destroyed it immediately by saying it has to be tied to her existing WA and she will definitely not allow a referendum. The WA would get less votes now than it did last Friday. The only way it gets through is if MPs can hold their nose KNOWING that they will ultimately be absolved of blame because they can say "well the people voted for it after all". If she accepts a customs union she runs the risk of a Julius Caesar moment at the dispatch box at the hands of Rees Mogg and Francois. This is more stalling and is going nowhere. They have no stomach for a general election so once again we will be nearing April 12th with not a clue what will happen. May truly couldn't organize a piss up in a brewery. Interesting to see what happens with this bill to make no deal illegal.
Trump lost. Badly. Hahahahahahaha. |

Interesting to see what happens with this bill to make no deal illegal. It's disgraceful that an act of law can be passed in 1 day. In modern times this does not happen as both houses need time to study and revise it where necessary. Still anything that delays Brexit is acceptable to these people.

Just had a discussion with a friend about Britain being the laughing stock of Europe due to Brexit and wanted to gauge some other opions. The UK is allegedly in crisis. The evidence of this is a couple of marches and some exchanges of cross words on social media. As this is over the way the entire country is being run, I'm not convinced it's we have descended to the depths other countries would have done if faced by the same issue. Since the Brexit vote: - France is currently experiencing months of riots due to petrol prices. - Part of Spain illegally claimed independence. - Italy has racked up debts to the value of 130% of their GDP. - Turkey has had an attempt by the military to over throw it's leader. - Germany is panicking about how it will prop up the rest of these countries. - Greece is still a mess. Quite frankly. I think we've been rather reserved in our approach to Brexit.
