No doubt the anti democrats on here will be shouting for an extension for another 20 years, as they just can't accept democracy and how it works. Absolutely BS. Democracy doesn't mean the ruling of one party but to find compromises, in particular in terms of 48/52% votings. ???? 4 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was more concerned with stopping the flow of Islamic stabugees that Europe seemed so keen on supplying. Although I didn't vote at all, and if I had I probably wouldn't have voted to leave, as a rural home in France was always my escape plan when Thailand went tits up. Agree. If it wasn't for the weather... every time I revist Ireland, I can't resist going to Lidl to buy a crate of wine. I save so much, compared to buying wine in Thailand - that it pays for the trip. Of course I'm <deleted> all the time. ???? 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post 473geo Posted June 28, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted June 28, 2020 It is rather embarrassing that many of the posters here appear to have no understanding that while negotiations are in progress the UK will not capitulate to the EU 'demands' without some reasonable assurances and at least a balanced outcome UK is correct and entitled to take a hard line at the outset, and if there is only self preservation discussion on the part of the EU with no concessions then the UK is entitled to stick to that hard line 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The number of dead is insignificant compared to the culture of fear and petty crime prevalent in the UK. Old people die, that's how life works, but living a life not being able to protect your property, belongings and loved ones is inexcusable. When I go to the shops here, I leave my doors and windows open, my shopping hanging off the m/c handlebars, and nothing is ever taken despite it being a poor 3rd world country, haven't managed that in the supposedly civilised UK for the past 50 years.

Nothing to do with your divorce either, it is to do with British folk getting their country and waters back, plus try to deal with each other fairly.
