Dutchman just posted this from Bloomberg: 'Anyone in the U.K. still hoping for a favorable Brexit scenario should realize that the U.K. has minimal leverage in the talks, and any demands on its part are primarily domestically focused rather than meant to change EU negotiators' minds. The U.K...

We don't know what the situation will be at Brexit. There is no Northern Ireland Assembly at the moment. That doesn't mean there never will be another one. We have a fudged joint statement at the moment. We cannot say what the final outcome of Brexit will be. We also don't know what will happen...

At the moment Northern Ireland is a member. The ROI is a member. Who is the new entrant?

Nothing is impossible in this story. The DUP sees it as potentially possible which is why they are jumping up and down.

He is covering his arse in case it goes horribly wrong. He can always claim that it was May's fault not his own.

It is not on the cards. I am not a constitutional lawyer. I am not an expert on EU rules of acceptance. As you say Eire dosen't want it at the moment. So why are you asking me?

Yes.

Ask Farage.... I was quoting his tweet...

Yes, let‘s move on to the next humiliation,

Exactly. No one will be entirely happy and everyone will suffer. Which is what I said all along. Should never have had the referendum.

No. I don’t want the AfD to be the main opposition party, but I do want a strong and stable government. That is more important. A side effect is that the bigots become the main opposition. Anyway, wait and see..... there is a lot of negotiating to be done...

I’m bonkers because some people on forums are bonkers? Keep taking the pills it may help,

We could have done that months ago. We’ve fudged the Irish question which will come back to haunt us and we’ve made concessions on the ECJ. Yes, quite a week.

We are in the EIB as a lender and we are a net contributor. Most are neither.

No. That has been banded about on forums such as Mail and Express. Not necessarily on here.

No. They can stay if they want to reform. If they don’t want to reform they leave.its a free choice.

He doesn’t have a big say in the EU. He has had a big say and knows how it works and what needs to be reformed. I hope that there is a coalition - SPD, CDU and CSU. Strong and stable is better than a cabinet squabbling amongst itself. Even then the rest have to agree and the countries have to...

Things like armies are still a veto. So people on here thinking they are going to be conscripted into Juncker’s army are utterly bonkers.

Yes. If Merkel doesn’t want it, Söder from CSU definitely won’t want it, at least some countries in the EU won’t want it, then it won’t get through. How do you see it? Someone who isn’t in a government or the EU at the moment just has to say something and it becomes law in 27 countries?

Where have I said that? As I pointed out, people like Judge Moore, Donald Trumo and Steve Bannon wouldn’t pass your test to protect liberal values. And they are already there.
