I don't but I do wonder where all the displaced fighters of IS will go once the iraq forces defeat them.
Because how many battle hardened Jihadists will find their way back Blighty.

Well we might, because we could become very dependent on trade agreements, defined by the EU. Economic leverage is a far better method of exerting political pressure for favour on a country, than political relationships are.

Its the gunboat diplomacy of the modern age.

11 million german car workers depend on our orders,they aren't going to jepodise their jobs,Merkel would be shot.

To an extent, but 11m German car workers aren't dependent on the UK orders. A percentage of that work force is (assuming the German car manufacturing cannot make up the short fall through the EU and EU trade partners). A drop in manufacturing orders from the UK will probably put a percentage of that work force at risk.

Plus there are 150 BMW dealerships in the UK, not to mention that BMW represents a large degree of employment in car manufacturing and sale in the UK - If any UK German deal affected the car industry, they'd lose their jobs, and its likely they'd also be the first to lose their jobs.

Syria, I suspect. Iraq isn't likely to be 'too friendly' once they've pushed IS over the borders, and there aren't too many options for crossing the border in that region.

But we really do need to identify these people, eliminate them where feasible and lawful in Syria and arrest those who return.

It may even be worth offering an reduced sentence / amnesty situation for those who produce themselves upon return and provide information on IS and other British Jihadists (with reduced sentence / amnesty / pardons based on the quality of information, arrests and convictions).

The key will be identifying as many of these people as possible, especially those who we don't catch upon return.

No, because you told me that there are vast armies of swastika tattoed skinheads roaming the country to protect us.

Another round of ping-pong will end the Lords, in my opinion. They wouldn't dare.

It may not end the Lords as they can only send a bill back twice but it will certainly strengthen the resolve to reform them further.

Perhaps I'm wrong, but there's no limit to the ping-pong, beyond the exercise of the Parliamentary Act after one year

If you are going to label the Mail 'fascist', you might as well call the Guardian 'communist'.

You seem to be more obsessed with communists and communism than Joe McCarthy.

Perhaps more of an exaggeration is to call the Mail a 'newspaper' as opposed to a right wing hate magazine
