    SBT vote on the Boris Johnson withdrawal agreement.....

    I fully agree. But can't be bothered to make a proper reply. Had a busy last day with family before my 800 odd mile journey home in the morning. But will get back to you eventually.

    SBT vote on the Boris Johnson withdrawal agreement.....

    It was never an opinion poll. But it was a result that wasn't expected.

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    It is nothing more than an agreement that will allow a deal to happen. A big part of the deal that has yet to be decided on will be what happens with Ireland long term. People have been so engrossed on the leave/remain argument that they haven't considered much more than the 50/50 call. The...

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    You don't have to be a hidden genius if you are not an idiot. I don't know if this agreement is any good. We will have to see what happens if it gets pushed through. What is most important is what happens afterwards. What sort of deal is agreed on. For all we know we could end up with Brexit...

    SBT vote on the Boris Johnson withdrawal agreement.....

    I don't have a Scooby doo. Is it accept the Boris agreement or what? We would have to know what the alternative is. If it is Boris agreement or no deal then accept. If it is Boris agreement or just about everything else then it is just about everything else. This has been the problem for the...

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    Any deal going through will come down to conscience against keeping their job at the next GE. It is easy for those who have a conscience that agrees with their voting constituency. But about half will be at odds. Follow party guidelines? Just a normal day with Brexit. Nobody has a clue.

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    Wow. That is over 17 hours a day 7 days a week. I have been doing 84 hours a week which is 12 hours a day 7 days a week. That was enough for me. Have knocked it on the head for good. No more OT ever again. There is more to life than living at work and sleeping. Only learned this in the last two...

    Normally yes. But someone on over 6k a month without expenses? Help should be available for those who need it and not just want it. I have never had help with childcare costs. My basic wage is below his. But I would never dream of trying to claim it in any way.

    Boris may be a childish twat but he isn't an idiot. You don't get to hold the positions he has by being an idiot. As he isn't an idiot he will know that having some sort of agreement was very important. He never wanted to leave without a trade deal. Now they are going to talk trade deals if it...

    It would be bedlam whatever he did.

    What a load of bullshit. That whole link didn't mention Merton a single time.

    And that is the problem. It is who you know and not what you know. Show me a powerful group and I will show you the same problem.

    If you look back you will see you have questioned me several times on the subject. That us why I now reply saying you know exactly what my thoughts are in him. Yet you very rarely say a word to those who have always defended him. Not after an argument. Just want to know why I constantly get...

    So why is it you constantly ask me on my opinions of Corbyn although you know they are very similar to your own yet you never once question those who would do or say anything on behalf of remaining and have a go for no reason those who don't conform. Simple question really.

    I agree it is a bit early to say solved. But yes a so called red line was moved and the EU changed what they said was happen also. But you only mention the red line bit. Not a surprise though.

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    Absolutely nothing. But nothing would be offered until it had to be. This is what a couple of us have been saying. It looks like the UK will have a unique deal to sort out the problems. The same unique deal with the EU that was said on here not to have a chance of happening. But Ireland was...

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    It isn't me that needs a lecture on the subject. It is subjects like Corbyn that shows the whole Brexit debacle doesn't have a chance of proper debate. You know Labour doesn't have a chance of success with Corbyn as leader. You have said so yourself. But as soon as I say anything similar you...

    Even if there was a massive pot of gold for the UK it would be a very bad deal as it could mean we leave the EU.
