Wasn't there a high court ruling that she cannot just walk away from parliament either (although that was what originally she wanted) ? Even if she leaves the table at Brussels without a deal, at home she might not get the acceptance for that that she needs, or did I memorize that wrong? I live by the impression that she needs the parliament's acceptance for any outcome she wants to approve.

Juncker back in 2015 seems to be drunk at a European Summit in Riga. :hmmm:

If he every did that to Mrs May it would be more than a few eyebrows raised.

Very complex SKY and with this new weaken government needing the DUP to prop it up the road to Brexit has become even more foggy.


Hope this helps..

Mrs May is without question facing a very tough time, can she work with Labour only time will tell. And one major stumbling block is below in the next link.

Yep, he's a real class act....not.

I really fail to see all that much equality within the EU if I'm to be honest and in particular regarding the differing amounts of contributions paid in by member states and that which is paid out.

Hopefully the negotiations will not turn acrimonious in nature but for that to happen, there are a great many who should leave their comments to the media in particular, better worded.

I found him arrogant and will not miss him, after all in the last six months he only appeared three times at PMQ's. Old Angus former leader of the SNP in the HOC before losing his seat attended and asked questions at every PMQ's.

And i am tired of the whining how much the UK have to pay, since obviously no one can say for sure how much it is, nor how much it really gets back. Germany also pays a lot of money, as does France. Freedom, ideals but also stalwart advantages like access to the markets or speaking with one major voice towards hegemonial efforts from China or the USA cannot be exactly measured of course, but you could as well describe that as invaluable.

Each and every family in the UK gets more out of the EU than it has to pay. Payments to the EU is around £214 /household (Institute for Fiscal Studies), but the Confederation of British Industry estimates that an EU membership is worth £3,000 for each household. Roughly ten times of what is being paid. And this money comes backthrough lower prices for everyday goods, jobs created, increased investment in the UK and trade not only with EU countries, but through them.

Apart from that nations that are better off, help finance those who are not, for special improvements like a better infrastructure or help in competition, that is and was clear as mud when the UK joined the EU. Which is why e.g. Wales and Scotland and Malta get money. During this time their competition improved but also the personal wealth of their citizens. Is this so bad? Wait for ten years and look at the picture then. Well not anymore now of course.
This has been the idea all the time, and i wonder why people suddenly regain their patriotism as a vehicle to more or less hide xenophobism and hate towards the EU and others.

There seems to be some romantic idea of how great this Empire was and that it will come back just because England will be alone and great again against all instead of working together.
The major advantage of brexit will that someone like Farage cannot blame the EU for everything anymore, and that this woeful EU 'leadership' will change for the better :nope:


edit: Sorry i think i just had to vent, bad form. Not a good answer to serious concerns, especially in the light of the latest tragedies. Will not delete it since it is up now for a day and only leads to more confusion.

The EU does and wants and demands many things that nation's leaders did not have on radar at the time they decided to join (no matter whether their people wnated it or not). My quarrel with the EU is not what it once was about - but what it meanwhile claims wanting to become.

I reject the idea that any "Yes" in the past necessarily must be taken as agreeing to future projects that were not even planned or talked about at the time the first Yes was approved.

If compoanies or banks or insurrances would imply that, they usually get immediate troble and legal challenges from consumer rights protection organisations. These laws exist, for the better of the consumer's protection against such arbitrariness. Just plticians time and again think they stand outside of the laws' and treaties' reach.

Free trade in Europe, okay. More there should never have been. Military cooperation: NATO business. Continental superstate, shared currency, own taxes, enforcing monoculturalism everywhere, erasing different national identities, the own fianncing the mismanagement and debt-rising of th eother: that never was set up to decide on to the people of Europe. Though some - the net receivers may have aimed at getting more money back than they have to put in.

What the EU and what EUrocrats want, in the end is nothign else but total power. That simple it is. Total power. Cultural cleansing. A central planned society, a central planned economy. We allow a totalitarian dictatorship forming up there. Like we have had it before. In the GDR. The USSR. Even the Third Reich'S social and economic order was like this.

And you applaude it. But socialism never can work, since it always ignores inescapable aspects of reality.

The more I have learned about this man, the more I am being impressed and feel great respect for him. Such a sharp mind, but his time witnesses described him always as such a friendly, kind, polite person and a man of utmost humility. Some youtube videos show the old man, and still there he is at the same time so witty, so calm and friendly. - This quotation site is a treasure chest of wisdom for those who do not care to read whole books by him. For a start in book readiong, I necessarily and always will recommend The Road to Serfdom.

I see the real boss is the EU so here is my two predictions..

Very very soft brexit

Very soft brexit.

Theresa May prefers a hard one so there's going to be a lot of falling out over it, I'll also say that some political careers will come to an end over Brexit and others will have their careers tarnished beyond repair, we are going to be experiencing some interesting times. :yep:
