What the fuck are they playing at?


Lord Frost will use a speech next week to reiterate that the UK wants the European Court of Justice (ECJ) removed from oversight of the NI Protocol.

The EU will bring forward proposals on Wednesday for reforming the protocol.

They will focus on easing practical problems, rather than changing oversight arrangements.

But the Brexit minister will say: 'Without new arrangements in this area the protocol will never have the support it needs to survive"...

Are they deliberately spoiling for a fight? Do they think a trade war will be good for Britain? It would appear the headbangers are still in control. The current supply chain "hiccup" will be as nothing compared to what's coming if these fucking morons get really stupid over the NI Protocol, as it appears they *are* doing.

We're fucked, aren't we.

Trade war against the EU, anyone pointing out the pointlessness of it or criticising the government branded a traitor? Of course.

Find the psychology hard to fathom. Is it about permanent war with the EU? And this week they’ve turned into Edward Carson. Northern Ireland is just one of the few remaining battleground the Brexiters haven’t laid waste to.

Probably part of their bigger conflict in removing us from the ECJ.

I heard at the time of leaving that leaving will not solve the Tory obsession with Europe (from a commentator) and it hasn’t.

No MP has studied as hard as Bill Cash and learned so little. He’s like Maureen from Driving School
UK scientists are being “frozen out” of the £80bn EU research programme Horizon Europe because of the ongoing dispute over the Northern Ireland Brexit protocol, a House of Lords committee has claimed.

Participation in the science research programme is being hampered by the ongoing dispute, the European scrutiny committee chair, Sir Bill Cash, said.

“It’s been the best part of a year and British research institutions remain frozen out of key projects and funding despite agreement on participation,” said Cash, a veteran Eurosceptic.

“With each passing day the opportunities are missed, British institutions are left high and dry while science marches on without them and the returns on our financial contribution edge lower.

“This needs to be addressed swiftly, so we’re calling on the government to lay out the steps it is taking to ensure UK participation is formalised.” https://www.theguardian.com/politics/20 ... -claims-mp

Any Questions came from my neck of the woods, this week. Even top Brexit brains Richard Madeley and Claire Fox couldn’t help noticing the pumpkins that are rotting in fields on their journey up to the Fenlands. It was all the government’s fault for not investing in training during ‘the transition.’ Shame Lord Frost didn’t employ these Captain Hindsights to sort this problem.

Along with a Labour Brexit windbag Melanie Onn they sounded very contrite on the subject. But probably glad they’re not Lucy Frazer

Roger and Godders have reached the end of the Brexit cul-de-sac and have nothing left but shitting their pants and crying

Who are these arseholes and why should I care about them roaring their eyes out on Twitter?

Sanctions on BMW would fuck Mini up a treat and remind me, who owns Rolls-Royce and Bentley? It'd be fucking hilarious to see Bentleys being built in Bulgaria.

Roger Helmer still on the trade balance?

I reckon the Isle of Wight has a trade deficit with the mainland. It should start a trade war.

These are the straight talking cheeky chappies half the nation betted the future of their country on. And worth noting because they’re unable to say they’re right about anything.
