I am starting a new series. Probably will write a book at some point too. Will keep it shorter for now.
Epic Tales of Brexit (sfw):
How Juncker eats the cake that UK already had.

EU started a trade deal with Australia and NZ.
Quote: | Australia's historical relationship with the UK is now one of "yesteryear," the country's trade minister told the European Parliament today, as he stressed that doing a free trade deal with the EU was now a greater priority for Australia than doing one with post-Brexit UK.
"I see the European Union FTA [free trade agreement] as certainly commencing formal negotiations well and truly prior to anything that might happen with the UK," Steve Ciobo told MEPs this morning.
He added that: "The UK and Australia of course do have a historical relationship, but it’s in many respects a relationship of yesteryear."
Ciobo, who met for talks with trade secretary Liam Fox earlier this week, said any negotiations with the UK could only begin once Brexit had been completed. |

It's started many negotiations. The list of completed ones are effing laughable.
Do you want me to drag it out for the tenth time?

I see Al Beeb are having another wankfest over Johnson's use of the £350M figure again. Jermeny Vines show is a queue of retards who can't comprehend basic English, phoning up to bash Boris and his pro Brexit stance.
Nobody at the Beeb appears to be able to read properly. Is it really that hard to understand that some of the £350M figure is actually rebate, but rebate where the EU decide how we must spend it?
Quote: | "Once we have settled our accounts we will take back control of roughly £350m per week. It would be a fine thing, as many of us have pointed out, if a lot of that money went on the NHS. " |
The full letters are here..
Quote: | The letters in full
Here are the letters exchanged by UK Statistics Authority chairman Sir David Norgrove and Foreign Secretary Boris Johnson in the row over the £350 million Brexit spending pledge:
Dear Foreign Secretary,
I am surprised and disappointed that you have chosen to repeat the figure of £350 million per week, in connection with the amount that might be available for extra public spending when we leave the European Union.
This confuses gross and net contributions. It also assumes that payments currently made to the UK by the EU, including for example for the support of agriculture and scientific research, will not be paid by the UK government when we leave.
It is a clear misuse of official statistics.
Yours sincerely,
Sir David Norgrove
Dear Sir David
I must say that I was surprised and disappointed by your letter of today, since it was based on what appeared to be a wilful distortion of the text of my article.
When we spoke you conceded that you were more concerned by the headline and the BBC coverage, though you accepted that I was not responsible for those. I suggest if the BBC coverage offends you that you write to the BBC.
You say that I claim that there would be £350 million that "might be available for extra public spending" when we leave the EU.
This is a complete misrepresentation of what I said and I would like you to withdraw it. I in fact said: "Once we have settled our accounts we will take back control of roughly £350m per week. It would be a fine thing, as many of us have pointed out, if a lot of that money went on the NHS. "
That is very different from claiming that there would be an extra £350m available for public spending and I am amazed that you should impute such a statement to me.
You claim in your defence that we would not really be taking back control of that sum, because it includes the rebate and other EU spending in this country. But, as you accept, these sums - amounting to about half the £350 million - are spent at the discretion of the EU. We do not control them.
To give you an example: when I was Mayor of London I thought it would be a good idea if we persuaded the Commission to spend £8m on the Emirates cable car. We succeeded, and the Commissioner concerned was so delighted with the results that he said he would like to fund some more cable cars in London. I was delighted, too, and was glad to have steered some of our EU contributions back to this country. But the decision was his. Control was in the hands of the Commission, not the UK. Or do you suggest otherwise?
As for the balance of the £350 million, it of course disappears around the rest of the EU, and is spent as the EU sees fit in other countries. Once we leave the EU we will take back control of all such UK-funded spending, and, although of course I have no doubt that we will continue to spend significantly on UK priorities such as agriculture and research, that spending will be done under UK control.
As for the rebate - whose value you did not know - it only forms part of the EU's financing arrangements with the agreement of all other EU Member States. We do not control it ourselves.
What is beyond doubt is that, upon withdrawal, we will have complete discretion over the £350m per week and that huge sums will indeed will be available for public spending on priorities such as the NHS. I believe that would be a fine thing.
If you had any concerns about my article, it would of course have been open to you to address the points with me in private rather than in this way in a public letter. As it is, if you seriously disagree with any of the above, I look forward to hearing your reasoning.
Boris Johnson, Secretary of State for Foreign & Commonwealth Affairs |

Meanwhile in the real world, while the Brexiters are waiting for the german carmakers to save the Brexiters from themselves, the german carmakers are preparing for Hard Brexit.
Quote: |
"Matthias Wissmann, head of the German Automotive Association, said contingency plans were being formed to deal with a possible failure of Brexit negotiations in the next 18 months."
"Britain is very important for us, but the EU27 is even more important for us, as a market and as a political concept... |
If the UK continues with the Brexit BS the Rolls will move to Munich.
Oh the irony

And this contingency plan is what exactly? How would they get around import duty?
How about moving some production to the UK? It's either that or paying import duty. ____________________ TZR250 2MA road, TZR250 1KT road, TZR250 2MA race, TDR250, YZF-750R Boost colours.

IMO the shit will hit the fan very soon.
UK economy to slow rapidly in 2018 as hard Brexit looms, OECD forecasts
Infaltion is raising fast
Employers' confidence in the UK economy hits lowest level since Brexit
UK house prices fall for fifth month in a row
May preparing completely useless speech trying to shift the blame to the EU.
What can go wrong here eh?
Actually the UK has not left yet.
I will get back to this post March 2019.

"Britain is very important for us, but the EU27 is even more important for us, as a market and as a political concept...so we do the utmost to support anyone who keeps Britain as close as possible to the EU.
But if you ask me for priorities: keeping the EU27 together is even more important than to keep Britain nearby, so let the British government be convinced that they have to build a bridge." |

Let that sink in.
Means ze Germans are ready for hard Brexit.
Let's hope May and Davis have good plans for that too.
