The gammons have eaten all the pineapple. A profits warning means the Brexit dividend is cancelled. There are now 4 Tory parties where there used to be only 3. The French are going to win the World Cup. And Global Britain is staking its future on exporting tariff-free Gareth Southgate waistcoats to Samoa. Roll on the football season! And to top it all off Croatia actually have blue passports. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted 12 July 2018 Share Posted 12 July 2018 (edited) 7 hours ago, Strokes said: The EU won’t allow services to be separate, not a chance. Where we end up after that, I’ve no idea. No deal is impossible without breaking the Belfast agreement or not being a WTO member and the backstop agreement over NI is atrocious. Tough decisions over the NI situation will have to be made but it’s looking like our best options are either no deal or rescind article 50. I don’t think anything else will do. I think there is 0% chance of parliament allowing no deal. There is a huge majority against hard Brexit. If it comes to it somebody will put forward a paper forcing the government to rescind article 50 and it will be voted into law.

It’s similar to mine but apart from that.....the guy, for me is incredibly confrontational and unprofessional. I don’t think he is a statesman and despite opinion amongst my peers I actually liked Obama. However I don’t think all of the criticisms of Trump are fair and I think some people make themselves look a bit silly when they criticise unwarranted bits especially when they are not unique to Trump.

Popular Post Carl the Llama Posted 12 July 2018 Popular Post Share Posted 12 July 2018 Embarrassing scenes for the UK. Trump is using the state visit to promote the worst possible Brexit and being a right cock while he's at it. I'm sure the thought has occurred to the knee-jerk defenders of all things Trump and Brexit that he's saying we'll get a good trade deal with them if we go for a no-deal Brexit but please stop deluding yourselves, the UK market will be swamped with cheap, unregulated American crap if he gets his way, killing thousands of jobs as our businesses struggle to compete with the deluge. And really the fact that he's undermining her even further by claiming that BoJo of all people is PM material tells you all you need to know (though I have no doubt that Trump truly believes that, the 2 are a very similar kind of buffoon). As stated previously I'm all for seeing what kind of deal we can negotiate with the EU but it's getting dangerously close to the point where if Theresa has any strong and stable in her wibbly wobbly jelly legs she'll revoke article 50 before it's too late. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's ridiculous. Thing is, he fronts the richest and most powerful country on earth. He can go round telling it as he sees it and America will gain initially as nobody can stand up to the U.S. But it isn't a good way for them to behave. We can't trust them at this moment. Sorry, but we can't. He'll only offer what he wants to offer which will be hugely weighted towards them. And in the meantime he's weighing in on Brexit, Boris, Russia, NATO etc. He's not remotely intelligent and doesn't appear to understand that American soft power is worth far more to what is already the world's richest nation than a few extra quid. He's throwing away relationships with the EU, specifically Germany, us, NATO etc for what? How can any of their traditional allies trust them if this is how he acts? At this moment to be leaving the warm embrace of the EU for a uncertain future and uncertain relationship with the US is scary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Donut Posted 13 July 2018 Share Posted 13 July 2018 Donald Trump says the brexit plans will kill the chance of a trade deal with the US. So yeah, a better strategy would be to go for no deal, so domestic based massive car and aerospace employers can all leave, and then we can sign a magical trade deal to accept all their chlorinated chickens instead and lead a deregulated race to the bottom on standards that will probably put even more UK producers out of business. And while we are at it, once again, lets diminish our relationship with the biggest single market on the planet so we can trade second rate tat. Thats what its come to, going cap in hand to a racist misogynist who wants to call the tune on our brexit to open access to overseas markets for crap. (oh but the EU, theyre bullies, theyre bullying us, they want to make a big example of us........stop bullyyyyyying usssss) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vacamion Posted 13 July 2018 Share Posted 13 July 2018 He's insulted his hosts. He's put the finger up to May. None of which comes as a surprise. In a way, I hope his article in The Sun helps to make up people's minds about who is on whose side and what this all means. You've got Trump, who is mates with Boris Johnson, Piers Morgan and Nigel Farage, coming here and riding roughshod over any relationship he had with May, advocating a harder Brexit and backing Boris for PM. May should tell him to do one. But she won't. You get the feeling that Trump's pal Putin is loving all this chaos 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

murphy Posted 13 July 2018 Share Posted 13 July 2018 (edited) You lot do realise, don't you, that the US is our single biggest trading nation partner in terms of exports? And that is despite EU tariffs and trade barriers, so potential to grow significantly. The EU is 27 countries of course. Fastest growing export markets - Turkey, South Korea and China. I just don't understand the vitriol toward the US. Just another of then more unpleasant symptoms of the left of which there are legion. I also don't understand the love-in with the vile EU and their determination to rule us or hurt us. They are not our friends.

"Rule us or hurt us". Righto... I don't think I could ever be described as being on "the left" as you put it. I've never voted Labour. Voted Scottish Conservative & Unionist last time out. Noteworthy that Farage was on the BBC last night trumpeting the new international set up. Trump was advocating ethnic nationalism in his The Sun article, as well as undermining our Prime Minister, his host. If it's a choice between Trump, Farage and Boris (and some worrying prejudices) on one side and the EU on the other, then for all its faults, I'd pick the EU, thanks. 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
