I say the Queen should tell Westminster to grow up and stop acting like a load of brats.

Chancellor Sajid Javid has announced a one-year spending review to give government departments "financial certainty" as they prepare for Brexit.

Mr Javid said a spending round for 2020-21 would "clear the ground ahead of Brexit while delivering on people's priorities".

He told the BBC that he was confident it would meet the government's priorities for the NHS, police and schools.

This would be a pretty tough balancing act to get right.

COD WARS RETURNING?

RN is over stretched now so Bojo if this erupts in a fishing war what are you going to do about it?

Jimbuna · 08-10-19, 05:54 AM

Twelve ships should just about be enough to 'batter' any intruders in UK waters.

Anyone remembers that?

"They want our fish!"
"The EU forces us to pack fish in plastic film!"

1. No there are enough waters for fishing, though England has of course a lot of coast, basically it is all coast

. And some fish are regarded as endangered species, so the EU including England decided to adapt fishing rules for protection.

2, No BoJo, England did this all alone. The EU did not force England or the UK to wrap fish in plastic, you did it yourself

There are of course lies with more impact than those ridiculous accusations. But hey if people fall for that, why not for all else?

B.t.w. here is a list of all those myths that have been perpetrated by those good old haters about the EU.
Although if Johnson, Farage or Mogg intentionally use them i would call it them lies.

Richard Braine has been elected as the leader of the UK Independence Party.

"We have got a great future and we are coming back. I am very excited and looking forward to leadership of this party, bringing the members together and delivering better results," he said.

I somehow doubt it, UKIP succeeded in what it set out to achieve and that was the referendum. Farage and his Brexit party have picked up the mantle now.

Oh come off it, UKIP is dead and sooner it excepts that the sooner UKIP passes into the history books.

They are a clown party full of clowns..

Queen's fury at her politicians: 'Dismayed' monarch tells aides of her 'disappointment in the current political class' and their 'inability to govern correctly' amid Brexit turmoil.

The Queen has voiced her frustration with today's politicians and their 'inability to govern correctly', it has been claimed.

The 93-year-old monarch remains scrupulously neutral in public but is said to have told aides of her 'disappointment in the current political class'.

She made the comments in 2016 but her feelings have only intensified since then amid endless political turmoil over Brexit, sources told The Sunday Times.

WOW! just WOW!

This is unprecedented in modern day times but surely goes to show just what a shambles the political landscape is in these troubled times.

STEED · 08-11-19, 05:49 AM

^ Yes the Queen is rather...

I am passed that stage and now...

I am convinced we should give the monkey house at London zoo a spin in government, surly the monkeys can do a better job than these wasters we have.

Jimbuna · 08-11-19, 06:13 AM

Bend the knee.

Reece · 08-11-19, 07:09 AM
