Excellent. Now i hope Boris blocades the ports of those bully/cowards in the EU. A bit of Falklands gumption is required here. The EU will last 6 hours before they capitulate. Yeh, let's all go to war. Nobody gets hurt. Feckin virtual war still damages. My father and grandfather attested to the futility of war and why it should never be allowed to get to that point. Both heroes, both embittered. This has been and will be damaging to all parties involved and should never have happened.

All academics and all third level institutions. They are all officially remain - it is in their vested interests. Overseas students and EU funding - surely you can see that? If any academic has a contrary view they had better keep quiet - or face a barrage of abuse from their all-knowing peers. Quite so In fact, they may even have received as much as £30k

When the EU eventually economically collapses being outside limits our exposure. But you are right, this was never primarily about economics. If Scotland goes independent then I support that self determination......You can blame Brexit all you like but in truth it was inevitable once Blair gave them a parliament......it has always been on the clock since then. Just a matter of when. Edited by Stirlingsays (28 Aug 2019 2.43pm) Right. So Germany is also going to split?

So my money is on a rehashed deal which can be made to look different from May's. Cummings may now have the whip hand, for both the EU and Parliament the choice appears to be agree a new deal, hurriedly re-drawn, or there will be a crash out. I see no chance at all that Johnson wants a no-deal, which is why Farage is trying to force him into that channel. In reality it is what he always promised he would do.

Feckin read will you! I am saying we screwed up long before each started. You must know the history. Make the right steps at an earlier point you don't get backed into a corner. But people have an annoying habit of 'forgetting' the damage and pain, it's all jolly exciting, hoorah chaps. As you know my grandfather was blown up, returned to hospital in England, got patched up, went back to France, got blown up again. I learned at his (artificial) knee that it was a failure of monumental proportions to get to that point. My father survived Tobruk and Monte Casino and then became best friends with a German soldier. Too many people on both sides sat on their hands as this brewed up, they didn't really care as war is really all glory and heroics.

I think there should be another referendum. The leave campaign leaflet I received during the last referendum said there was very little chance of leaving the Eu without a trade deal as Europe would be bending over backwards to give us a trade deal. If people had known then we would be leaving without a trade deal I think the result of the referendum would have been quite different
