However, if the Scots want more money from the EU as they will pay in, they can stay where they are.

What about Poland, Hungary, you name it? Not paying, not respecting basic values or international law, and blackmailing the others?
I guess Scotland could just live on Whisky export when i look around :D

Fisheries will be a great add to the EU.
And whiskey is less than 10% of the Scotland exports.

Scotland is the only country in the UK to have a positive export balance

For the present, I am strictly against adding more weak members to the EU that just want to get fed more than they can give back, we have problems enough already, and adding more weak members does not make us stronger or better, only weaker and more vulnerable.

Regarding Poland or Hungary, they should not have been allowe din in the first, like Greece back in those days, I would not cry to loose especially Poland, their take from the budget is hilariously big, bigger than that of the next three net takers together.

A company of weak with weak, makes just a bigger company of weak, and a mixed compnany of weak and strong, makes a parasitical company. Only strong and strong, makes a strong company. Weak members are only nice to have in times of conflict, when you need cannon fodder to get sacrificed to save your better batallions from getting slaughtered.

Not nice to say that loud. But its true. The EU is a paper tiger, therefore. And it is collapsing in slow motion. I have just set up a threat with a link to a movie on the destruction of money. When that movie's last chapter materialises, the EU flies apart at all directions simultaneously. And no other nation in Europe will have lost so much values and investements and currency than stupid Germany - with nobody being there to bail us out this time.

Meaningless babble. Another time limit has just been vaporized:

"It is understood there is likely to be a decision before Christmas on whether or not a deal can be reached"

Wasn't it said "this Sunday"...?

Is Johnson pushing it to the extreme so that parliament shall have no time to read the fineprint before being demanded to just nodd it off blindly? After all it is over 700 pages. If so he may have placed the bet without taking the EU parliament into account. They too said the insist of havign the time needed to actually read, digest and debate it.

Catfish 12-19-20 04:46 PM

Wasn't that four years of time for talks?
What exactly did Johnson or his team do all this time?

Ah, right, so the answer is 'stupid' :yep:

Catfish 12-20-20 09:16 AM

Not necessarily stupid, but posting it with the intention for destabilising the EU and pushing nationalism everywhere - so the "new normal" :ping:
