Brexit, for once some facts.

[oldtom]

It looks like the Poisoning by Nerve Toxin story has been replaced by a new Corbyn attack
"

No surprise there! It's another non-story created by tory central office in conjunction with the huge Jewish donors to the tory party to fill the gap until the royal wedding comes along.

More interesting is this interview with the incredibly stupid, wholly un-statesmanlike, embarrassment to the nation that May picked as Foreign Secretary:

‘Russians are capable of all sorts of dirty tricks,’

so is he, it seems.

"Russians are capable of all sorts of dirty tricks"

So is anyone, and he's been using them expertly all his life.

Mostly on his friends and associates, though in 2016 on the whole of the British public.

"U.K. Brexit negotiators are developing a plan to solve the Irish border issue by keeping the whole of the U.K. aligned with a subset of the EU’s single market rules, according to British officials."

Let's just wait until you see JRM's wet fish face on TV again.

Brexit is looking more pointless with every passing day.

Not quite.
Out of the EU means that we'll be less disruptive but we'll still can ask for opt-outs and our politicians will have less opportunity to blame the EU when something goes wrong, especially on EU's budget and immigration.

Correction: "no opportunity to blame"...

Of course that won't stop them from blaming the EU. If something goes wrong in the UK then it is the EU's fault is rule number one after all...

Agreed at present, not completely pointless, but as I posted, more pointless with each concession.

If we carry on like this it could get to almost pointless.

And this Creature fronted the Leave Campaign and it won!

Never in the Field of human Politics has one man owed so many apologies to so many!

so is he, it seems.

Actually that represents the highest possible phrase coming from a British Politician, phrases like
"The Sun never sets on the British Empire
Because God doesn't trust the British in the Dark"

And the immortal

"Britannia Waives the Rules"
Seem pertinent.

I didn't think it looked THAT GOOD if you know what I mean
I refuse to be so enthusiastic and optimistic to rate it "pointless"
let's see now,what can I say about it in a positive light.

We could be the first Nation to get the coveted
Darwin Award?

Recently announced , Germany, France and Holland are expelling Russian diplomats. ( I believe 4 each) Its thought another 8 EU members are to follow suit shortly. USA have expelled 60...
Amazing how many are taken in by May's lies.

Are you, too?
Is the statement by Boris "There is no actual evidence" enough to reach for Torches and Pitchforks?

We don't need evidence, just the accusation it is/was/will be/they are capable of dirty tricks..
Will do very nicely
And expel a few Onion Sellers of Bicycles

Why not? 15 million plus were taken in by Boris, Gove and Co after all.

Could it be because of Russian influence in the referendum?

 

[Zlatan]

Could it be because of Russian influence in the referendum?

Yes definitely..Here is response from Canada's president.


"In response to Russia’s unacceptable behaviour, we’re expelling several Russian diplomats from our country. Canada will always stand in solidarity with the UK - and we’re committed to working with our allies to protect and uphold the safety & security of all our citizens."

You can read between lines, he,s really saying May is a bitch and we are kicking diplomats out because they caused Brexit.

Trump has closed Embassy in Seattle..( The Russian one)He,s expelled around 100 diplomats/ staff..
Its largest action of its type in history..all because of Brexit. ( or actually to pretend they think Russians are guilty, in private they are saying different...??? )

Not that Putin will be worried but don't think he expected such a unified response...does make our position a little more secure. Better than us acting in isolation.

And forumites...

Google
"Does the UK’s case against Russia stack up?"

Excellent report on " Fact Check" Gives both sides of argument..
Its a lengthy report but worth reading..
I wonder what info there is we aren't privvy to...

 

[flecc]

Not that Putin will be worried .

Indeed, this strengthens his position in Russia, reinforcing as it does his claim that Russia is surrounded by enemies.
