Yeah right. If the one that wants to leave has undersigned treaties that go on for a - if limited - time, he has to fulfill those. Otherwise it is a break of treaties, and being regarded as this, internationally.

Why doesn't England let Ireland go then, if that is what you call slavery and imperialism? "Treating people as property of other people the latter can abuse" and you reall mean that? How many wine have you drunk?
England has plundered and enslaved a good part of the world for centuries, not that they would call a spade a spade of course.
I fail to see how the EU is "enslaving" the UK, this is ridiculous. Unless you happen to be as awful as Farage.

Your comparisons are so overblown and full of yourself and self-rightousness it is breathtaking. Get some professional help.

The biggest part 0of the UK - England - voted to get out of the EU. And all have to follow, like in this joke. England, Scotland and Ireland walked into a bar. The all had to quit because England wanted to".

Partnership, well. This decade-long cherry picking had to stop somewhere, and i am almost happy that it finally happens. "Anything else than partnership is dictatorship?" :haha: No, sorry. This is dumbest black-and-white-thinking. Then England has been a dictator decades-long while joining the EU.
And i can see how altruistic and well-meaning, and professional the english government has been and is, with or without the EU. This is laughable, and ridiculous.

There can only be no Brexit and no Irish border, or a Brexit without agreement and a hard border.
Ah? Why? So what has the EU to do with it? What about England? What about the WTO?

Quote:

The British people itself must navigate the waters they put themselves into, it is up to them to accept parliament to betray the referendum, or to storm the hall and burn the house down. Neither the EU nor anyone else has to lay claim for that they should do what we others tell them.
Exactly. And while a lot of nations internationally and the EU look at England they do not actually do much, but watch a drama unfold, watch how they are hurting themselves. But this is not the fault of the EU, or Botswana.

........fine with that, but one can demand precision. but this has nothing to do with the bachstop problem.

,......... Jim said the northern Irish by majority want to stay in and with the UK. They also want no hard border.Like the parliament, they contradict themselves by wanting two things that cannot be had together. THE UK AS FAR AS I KNOW HAS NOT PRESSED THEM TO STAY IN THE UK. London allowed a scottish referendum as well on independence, mind you. Neither the Gibraltarians nor the Falklanders are forced to stay either. They want to stay. Like apparently the northern Irish.



I fail to see how the EU is "enslaving" the UK, this is ridiculous. Unless you happen to be as awful as Farage.
,............ What I said, stands - and how i said it. no people must live for the sake of other people, expecting them to do that is claiming property rights over the other, and that is slavery by defininion for sure.


Your comparisons are so overblown and full of yourself and self-rightousness it is breathtaking. Get some professional help.
........ I take it from such personal attacks that you ran out of arguments.


The biggest part 0of the UK - England - voted to get out of the EU. And all have to follow, like in this joke. England, Scotland and Ireland walked into a bar. The all had to quit because England wanted to".
......... the uk is kind of a union of four, and they all agreed to decide in this union by majority votes. Maybe you do not like majority votes if they do not dekiver your preferred outcom







Partnership, well. This decade-long cherry picking had to stop somewhere, and i am almost happy that it finally happens. "Anything else than partnership is dictatorship?" :haha: No, sorry.
..........Try to correctly quote and understand what i actually said. you already add your own spin to my words again. cheap.




This is dumbest black-and-white-thinking. Then England has been a dictator decades-long while joining the EU.
And i can see how altruistic and well-meaning, and professional the english government has been and is, with or without the EU. This is laughable, and ridiculous.
........ whoever feels adressed by this reply, may or may not answer. it wont be me, however, since i feel not adressed.



Ah? Why? So what has the EU to do with it? What about England? What about the WTO?
.....???



Exactly. And while a lot of nations internationally and the EU look at England they do not actually do much, but watch a drama unfold, watch how they are hurting themselves. But this is not the fault of the EU, or Botswana.
....... i nowhere ever said that somebody else is responsible for the selfcontradicting behaviour of parliament. i identified the parliament never having wanted brexit but needing to deal with the referebdum as cause for their weaseling. i said when they are serious with brexit they necessarily can only go for hard brexit, and i explained why that is so.


do you actually read what i say before you type a "reply" ?

Looking at the recent posts above reminds me of the discord that currently exists here in the UK on this subject matter.

What I believe we can all agree on is that this whole sorry state of affairs is a right mess.

I'm not about laying the blame on either or both sides of the divide but one thing is for certain, Parliament are failing the people of the UK and there are strong rumours that the all powerful 1922 Committee are considering ways to change the Tory Party internal rules in an effort to oust PM May long before the December deadline she currently has as a result of an earlier leadership confidence vote.

Who would replace her and what would change as a result...God only knows :hmmm:

Brexit: Labour must back another referendum - Tom Watson

Labour must promise another Brexit referendum to counter the electoral challenge posed by Nigel Farage, the party's deputy leader has said.

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-48000600
Didn't they voted on this and rejected it. :hmmm:

I have no interest going down the Irish road so they get the result they want. We already had it so shut up and go away.

If you're to be taken seriously this is a reminder of how dangerous the far right can and have become.

There is a rather appropriate saying I learned in Holland whilst residing there but sadly, the internet has an abundance of competent text translators :03:

Reece 04-21-19 06:38 AM

I had to put that since I had a really bad day of gastro, both ends!! :oops::doh:

And now the inevitable consequences begin.

Quote:

Tory councillors are revolting against Theresa May over her handling of Brexit, with 40% prepared to vote for Nigel Farage’s rival party at the European elections.

A survey of elected grassroots Conservatives found three quarters of Mrs May’s councillors wanted her to resign, with 43% of them calling for her to quit immediately.

Just over half – 52% – said they would vote Tory at the European election, a figure that would rise to 65% if Mrs May was replaced by Brexiteer Boris Johnson, the Survation poll for the Mail On Sunday found.

Some 40% said they would vote for Mr Farage’s Brexit Party, a figure that would fall to 22% if Mr Johnson was in Number 10.

Chopped as in removed from office for telling lies, they set it in law we would leave the EU on March 29th and we have not left. This disgraceful lot have lost their rights to sit in Westminster and yet these traitors remain. Democracy is dead.

I knew that even before the talks started, Labour's one and only aim is too get a general election. Is the press in this country so bloody thick they do not see it.:hmmm:

I don't see Change UK getting any where and I suspect most if not all will loose their seats at the next general election. Followed by them falling out the media spot light.

Jimbuna 04-23-19 06:09 AM

A bit like the Tories and Labour perhaps.
