You pay 60 billions for someone to prepare to talk to you?

Absurd weakness.

Remaining is actually a strong position.

Leave is bankruptcy and humiliation.

She is paying up.

How long will it be before you work out that we are leaving?

So you want us to pay for our responsibilities but it's weakness if we do. Sounds like the difficulty in understanding what women wanted yesterday then today.

You and others are.

By default anyone who doesn't believe in nations and automatically thinks all nationalism is bad is by definition anti British.

I'm not so sure it is tbh..as i said elsewhere...if we're expected to pay for projects that havent yet started then personally i'd expect to have the benefits of any [outputs] they produce as well (yet another negotiating point i'd assume)....

I would need to see a convincing argument made for this.

We could probably rustle up a few quid not to have you.....Shame you are a remainer on here as well.

When are you leaving for the EU? At least Eurowhathisface followed his principles.

I would have thought that believing that all nationalism is bad would make one anti-nationalist.

By default, anyone who distils this stuff to such fundamental bollox is, by definition, anti-intellectual.

I fully appreciate that many now would possibly reverse their initial vote of 'leave' but this is purely driven by a deliberately biased media manipulating easily manipulated minds imo (no offence).
The media rarely, if ever, mention the amount of EU DEBT that has been 'magicked' into existence*, the sole purpose being to artificially inflate the value of 'the bloc'.
We have enough problems heading our way as it is. We don't need to add 'supporting the irresponsible Draghi and his cronies' to the list.
The EU project is, and will forever be, nothing more than a crock. And a bloody expensive crock at that.


*DEBT that will also HAVE TO BE REPAID........and no prizes for guessing which part of society will be paying for it, again.


Not this old zombie rubbish again.

UK domestic debt is above EU club debt. UK credit rating worse than EU debt rating.

You can't pretend debt is a EU specific issue, or an issue somehow invented in the EU. Every bank in the world creates debt. That's their job. The EU debt is nothing extraordinary, other than it's backed by a club of guarantors (spreads risk).

Debt being used to "artificially inflate value"... are you somehow saying EU debt has some feature which makes it totally different from all other state issue debt?

What about Japan? 240% odd debt to GDP ratio. How do you explain what's going on there? Wizardry I suppose?

I don't think that's the sticking point, its the UK offering 20bn as their pay out, which the EU claims won't even cover the costs of British Citizens still living within the EU in terms of social security, pensions etc.

I'd imagine that in any negotiation the initial basic cost tends to be the point to agree before you start dealing with terms of agreement.

How much are they paying us for the greater number of them that will be living in the UK then?

All of their arguments are nonsense. Ireland is another they trot out when we've had, and still have, the CTA agreement which was around long before Schengen which neither Ireland or the UK is a part of anyway. And the good Friday agreement had nothing to do with the EU either.

 


Optimistic as ever

He is p*****g in the wind.

The EU Japan and everyone else have one thing in common.

They are not responsible for the UK's debts.

The UK is.

No there are no responsibilities in fact they can go and 'whistle for it'.

Short memories.

I find that very insulting. Slovenia Dave was right.

How f***ing dare you call me anti British.
