There will be those who will never get over the fact that they lost and will do everything to try and meddle with the country trying to get on with it.

It's annoying though that such meddling occurs, suggesting that said people would rather see the country sink into the sea and be proved right than see it prosper under a decision they didn't agree with.

I do think you ought to engage with the conversation instead of just making shit up.

Well 5 months later, nothing much has changed on Brexit, it seems that no one really cares what happens anymore.

And Covid has proved that it's not that important.

We no longer have freedom of movement, we can't even go to Spain, without facing 2 weeks house arrest. No one seems to give a 4x anymore.

5 months later something has changed.

This is that Mr Roman Numeral man now appears to have bad karma.

When did that happen?

What is the EU so afraid of that they just can't bring themselves to let go of us? Are they really that insecure?

I'm not sure on this one tbh, it sounds pretty bad if the UK has broken the law and reneaged on the agreement.

It was on the news tonight that an 'appalled' Sir John Major and St Tony have written a joint article rebuking the government.

Is the UK justified in what it's done? I don't know, I just don't have the facts, and listening to Gove try and defend it makes me want val to come back.

Time for an update please. I will get almost close to fuckall news about the UK until January when all this presidential lark is put to bed for a short while and the media start looking for something fresh to bitch about.
We've had the leader of the House of Representatives say this week that the US won't be agreeing any trade deals with the UK if they go ahead with this new bill.
Is the new bill creating a hard border, the option to create a hard border or what? Anyone any ideas what the bit about 'breaking a specific part of international law' is all about?
And, finally, did MPD acquire a new user name? His politics stunk but he seemed to know his bikes.

Basically, the EU are threatening to use the NI protocol in the Withdrawal agreement to ban all food stuffs from the mainland entering NI without tariffs if Boris doesn't remove his bill of amendment to the WA. It would be entirely up to the EU which goods are restricted in this way. Without this threat, so-called "no risk" goods, i.e. those that would not go from NI to the EU, i.e. Eire, would not have tariffs applied. The EU are threatening to apply tariffs to all food stuffs going from the UK mainland to NI, thus effectively applying a hard border in the Irish Sea.

This is totally contrary to the GFA, as it splits NI from the mainland without the agreement of the people of NI (but no one seems to be protesting at this). The UK government's action will prevent this from happening, so the GFA can remain intact and unviolated. The EU, as usual, are being totally disingenuous in suggesting it is the UK who are threatening the GFA by this bill of the government's. The EU continue to be bad faith players in everything to do with Brexit.

That's my understanding anyway. Obviously Remainers will see it from the EU point of view, since they don't mind if the UK is split up.

I see it as a threat as in if there is no deal, we are going to put up controls at our country borders and not where the EU have told us to.

As much as I don't give a rats arse if NI is part of UK or not, they, unlike wee willie krankys mob, have not yet shown a wish to leave UK so in my view the borders of our country should be on the borders of the country, not splitting it.

As far as the US is concerned, fcuk them, they've always love the Micks more than us.
