OUT WITH A DEAL EATING OUR CAKE AND LOVING IT suck it up remoaners
And like a typical anti democracy remoaner he decided the will of the people should be ignored the minute the democratic result was in total fecking hypocrite 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Despite it being voted in to law by the commons the spineless two faced remoaner MPs have totally abandoned any morals and decided to ignore the will of the British people.
It will be remembered and no election or referendum will ever be the same again in this country.
The one thing that will come is a massive surge in the popularity of UKIP or a similar party in the future who stand for the 52%.
Happy Days.

Germany have just lost 5000 car manufacturing jobs. Have the economists found a way of blaming that on Brexit? Have they factored in EU/Japan FTA removing tariffs on imports?
With regards to second paragraph, what's the alternative then? Never leave as short termism is all that matters? If my short term prosperity was affected, I'd adapt and react to the circumstances.
My dad used to work at the Hoover factory in the sixties. Shop steward, physically attacked by union members and hounded to quit because he refused to back strike action. The reason for union wanting a strike? Each baseplate of a cleaner had four screws. Union wanted one person employed per screw!
So dad simply quit, set up his own business. He adapted, he reacted and one of those who assaulted him later came begging for a job - as dad was out on a call that day, I dealt with the guy in an appropriate manner.
Manufacturing has declined because the need for workers has reduced with automation. Tech sector however has boomed. It's about changing with the times
Deals we've agreed so far, emphasis on so far are the start. The Israel one is particularly interesting as a Remain group document identified Israel as one nation ( along with others like Brazil ) that could yield far better gains outside EU than within. Medical, tech sectors are definitely key areas that Israel can provide.
You re not listening, so I can’t be bothered.
Just thank your lucky stars you can adapt and react - many can’t. How do you adapt to having no food, heat, place to house your family? Open your eyes to the way that many millions are living hand to mouth at the moment for God’s Sake.
Btw - Israel has a smaller economy than Ireland - a country that most brexiteers sneer at. I couldn’t give a sh*t if we strike a better deal with them. It’s chicken feed.

So we should all be still working the land?
Economies change, societies change, working practices all change. It's evolution, like it or not. When the mines closed, people could apply their skills in other areas or they could just sit and complain.
Missing the point about Israel. The benefits of deals with Israel isn't the "chicken feed" amount as you put it. It's about access to major technological breakthroughs in tech areas, from cybersecurity through to medical advances.

We’re all going to starve to death and freeze to death now?
The creatures outside looked from pig to man, and from man to pig, and from pig to man again; but already it was impossible to say which was which.

Evolution is gradual. Our economy has gradually changed. Sometimes more or less rapidly.
Never over a cliff edge with no control. And never without knowing what we’re changing to.
Throwing everyone else under a bus because it suits you is, in my opinion, utterly selfish.
Just be aware that there are many who identify with that type of politics, that will happily throw you straight under a bus if it suits them. Don’t expect sympathy if that happens.

You may not, and perhaps you don’t give a crap if it happens to others, but there are many who will be profoundly affected. There are many at present who can’t afford to feed their families and to provide a warm house, if the economy gets hit there will be many more.
And you the the nerve to call people like me and Warwick ‘dyed in the wool Tories’ last week. Dear God.

I've been through the "throwing under bus" before, Lisa - successive governments allowing visa abuses in IT. No sympathy was given regardless - to quote Prescott "we owe them". I evolved and changed my business model.
Now, car manufacturing is changing. Diesels are more or less dead these days - should manufacturers keep people on, twiddling their thumbs producing nothing?
What is needed is a culture not of "you work down the mines, that's all you do", "you work on production line, that's all you do" but one of "you've learnt skills, how else can you use them", "can you use your skills to create your own business, do you have ideas"?
May is finished. The EU are playing a blinder making the extension dependent on her deal being backed by Parliament. Win win outcome. May fails - paves the way for a longer extension and possibly no Brexit. May wins and they’re in the driving seat in future trade negotiations.

Terrific. All the people aged 55 plus can get off their ar*e and create their own business, while simulateously supporting their families. Easy to get a business loan with little or no savings and little to no collateral after all.
Brexit may reduce visa abuses though - people will be brought in without needing to abuse their visas as it’ll be quid pro quo for a trade deal with more developing countries.
Btw - the car industry is not about producing diesel - it’s about where they build the next gen electric and hybrids. Surely you recognise that? Or do you think everyone’s going to start walking?

Third outcome; Bercow appeared to rule out another vote. EU make extension dependent upon Parliament backing deal - pointing out loudly that its the only deal that will ever be on offer. Deal fails, time runs out...

They are only making a short term extension dependent on her deal. Not a long term extension. And Macron has denied saying he would veto,
We have to hope she’s not so completely deranged she’ll muck up and miss the deadline so we leave with no deal. I’m not convinced - I’ve never seen such a deranged performance as her performance today. She actually said she disagreed with parliament so was going to do something different. That’s a dictatorship.

Our great British Parliament have made sure May had sweet F all to negotiate with.
The EU didn't have to play a "blinder" they just stepped back and left our bumbling incompetent Members of Parliament do the job for them.

There isn’t a longer extension yet because nothing has substantially changed. We’ll be in new territory if May stands down though. I do agree regarding her irrational performance today. It’s almost a Macbeth tragedy with gender roles reversed.

There’ll be plenty of locusts to eat. And the fire and brimstone will keep us nice and warm.

I’ve no doubt that she’ll give another statement tonight which will say absolutely nothing other than her robotic ‘people want its to get on with it’ nonsense.
Simply shocking.

Yeah, but all 55 plus are racist gammons, some would claim...
Europe was diesel heavy then realised diesel was crap. Manufacturing plants don't make every single type of car. Those heavy on diesel production have been hit by the fall in demand. EU/Japan FTA means there's little economic incentive other than illegal subsidies to remain making cars in a region where demand is low.
Toyota have made the choice to build new vehicles here. Other companies haven't - that's their choice. Can't say the other companies decisions show it's clearly Brexit whilst ignoring Toyota's choice. My point is its facile to reduce car manufacturing issues to Brexit only; as Ford have cut 5000 jobs in Germany, clearly there are many other factors of which Brexit is a very minor one.
Indian IT visas have led to local workers being undercut majorly. The reality is more companies are realising the Indian consultancies are fvcking sh1te - although one part of my business model is fixing the crap they leave behind. Means plenty of long term work...
What we need is an immigration system that fills areas of genuine need on a skills based points system,

Nothing has changed, this evening we MPs calling to back the deal, no deal, a second referendum, to vote for the deal and a public vote, a longer extension and indicate votes on other options

Indeed. Watch the ' intransigent EU' myth start to build now. It said plainly that this is the only deal possible within May's ridiculous Britannia rules the waves red lines shit. I've thought she is on powerful mind altering depressants for ages. After today, I think she might be on a stronger cocktail than I thought.
