It was us who left; the EU don't have to give us anything! That definition was written by you. Nobody has to give anybody anything ... but you know it makes sense if they do! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, the EU would prefer, even need, a deal; but we need them a lot more than they need us. Really? Looking back at the last 4 years I recall far more bullying (and disrespect) from the EU side. I don't really think we need them much at all but the immediate difficulty in leaving is because we have been a member of this increasingly tangled and corrupted mess of a web for so long. I'm just happy we avoided the Euro or that would have been that. 2 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking back at the last 4 years I recall far more bullying (and disrespect) from the EU side. I can't recall any examples of bullying by anyone on ether side. Nor disrespect; except from Farage, but no one takes him seriously. But no doubt you can provide some examples. 1 hour ago, nauseus said: I don't really think we need them much at all As has been shown many times throughout all these Brexit topics; many businesses, manufacturers etc. in the UK disagree with you. No-deal Brexit would be “one crisis too many” for small firms as FSB appeals for state aid What has been the impact of Brexit so far? Has the damage been done? 1 hour ago, nauseus said: but the immediate difficulty in leaving is because we have been a member of this increasingly tangled and corrupted mess of a web for so long. We left on the 31/12/20; don't you remember? What these negotiations are about is a trade deal! 1 hour ago, nauseus said: I'm just happy we avoided the Euro or that would have been that. We didn't 'avoid' the Euro; we, like Denmark, chose not to join. A decision with which, like you, I agreed. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure, can be done again, holding up, but nee way your croakers will succeed in ditching a deal if ever reached, croakers can be stubborn and prinicipal and moules doesn't give that much strength . . . me thinks no need to be agreed? if a so called deal is to surface of course it must be agreed have a go at Gewurztraminer with your next moule aioli, pretty tasty on a Wednersday I dont know why the winning ( ? ) brexiteers are making so much fuzz out of it so close to your victory ,even .....should be dancing on the streets by now ???? For me i am satisfied they dont give in , as the game of trying your ways outside E.U. while you could not achieve it from the inside ..... take your red bus money and let us finally go for 100 % for our own things to handle ,4 years brexitting is more than enough time waisted for a leaving group who still stands in the doorway yelling ...we are goooing !....we left already !....but still trying to get what is not to possible to get .....pathetic ???? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post luckyluke Posted October 14, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted October 14, 2020 I find the decision of Mr. Johson, brave. The wellness of the U. K. as major goal, not only to please a minority. I suppose Mr. Johnson will be hated now by the Hard Brexiteers. Or maybe they will tell us here, it is part of a cunning plan. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is my opinion that Mr. Macron will have to give in as well. Of course, every decision made can be presented as a victory. Sure some will be prepare to swallow it. But any decision taken for the benefit of all, is a good thing in my opinion. Even if sometimes it is at the cost of the pride of a minority.
