Labour says UK must become EASIER to enter after tragic migrant deaths
The shadow home secretary said that people with a 'legal claim' to live in Britain should be helped to come to Britain, following the grim discovery in Essex.
I believe the government want to be part of it, but the EU doesn’t want us to be. It’s the EU who is refusing to cooperate with a willing partner.
Best fly or use the tunnel.
If Bojo wins the GE, the ferries could be struggling to navigate through all the rubber boats as British refugees flee to France.

Andy needs a partner in the shop who can answer phones, see to callers and fit kits to customers' bikes.
Ahhh I see. I thought you meant here.
I don't blame you tbh. The idea of that idiot in charge is a very, very depressing thought.
It makes me so angry at Corbyn.
What is Boris doing?

UK gives up £7bn windfall from European Investment Bank
Boris Johnson has given up on a windfall for the UK of almost £7bn, which would have covered more than a fifth of the “divorce bill” from the EU.
Under the terms of the new withdrawal bill, which passed its second reading in parliament last Tuesday, Britain has abandoned any claim to the accumulated profits from the European Investment Bank (EIB), which is owned by EU nations.
The UK put in €3.5bn to help finance the EIB in 1973, 16.1% of the total at the time. The EIB, which has invested in infrastructure projects including Crossrail and the London “super sewer”, has since built up reserves through retained profits.
At the end of 2018 the UK’s share of the reserves was worth £6.5bn. That is estimated to have risen to almost £7bn. However, the withdrawal agreement states that the UK will receive only what it paid in 1973, without profits or interest."
I must say
"I'm Impressed"
Not favourably you understand,
But impressed
There is an appropriate image
All I can say to Brexiteers is it certainly looks like you are going to get the Government you deserve.
"Not a good start Boris" as some might say.
I'm sorry , I shouldn't laugh really, but then what else can we do?
What an absolute shower they are.. look at them..
As John Wayne once said
"Ya look like ten miles of bad road"
16,141,241 to beam up immediately Scotty, and no doubt more presently...
We're going to need a bigger ship.
Hang on a minute there's more!
"Critics of the agreement have said it leaves the UK with liabilities relating to the eurozone. Robert Rowland, the Brexit Party MEP, said the UK could be forced to pay in more than €37bn in share capital, particularly in the event of a eurozone crisis. "
No this cannot be happening, I refuse to believe this reality, can we have another one please?

It's no good complaining about the tune to the Monkey when the Organ Grinder is in the room as Winston Churchill once famously said.

Would you?
That should really kill the bill in it's tracks if the world was a logical place, and Boris's career with it
So he bought this so called "great deal", and there's still the £39 billions to pay.
Seems Theresa May did better than him after all.
I dread to think what sort of a trade deal he'll get for us.
.
£33 billions. We paid £6 billions since April.
TM has a some scrupulosity compared to Bojo.
She does not want to split NI from the UK.

Defined as: To move forward at high speed, often with minimal control.
Yes T. May was scrupulous, and attentive to detail. .. not imaginative , but honourable ,within her meaning of the word.
and screwed up literally everything she touched leaving a lasting legacy of irreparable damage.
I doubt whether he was bright enough to see that he had been "done"
