Both the English and the French have fished the Channel for centuries, Brian. Unfortunately the fish have never seemed to respect maritime borders. - 16 October 2020 18:57365636Mr Dixon sir not so long ago you was saying lets stay in the EU

- 17 October 2020 08:24365659And I think he is right to do that and in doing it do not give any cash to the EU, from the war years up till now we have given them to much already in cash and men in both wars.

Perhaps the Felixstowe method is the way through after Brexit Ray!

Do nothing and nothing happens. - 25 November 2020 13:25366424The Brexit paradox - having nobody able to influence our trade deals.

The Brexiteer's only trump card was, er, Trump - a charlatan, a narcissist, a liar and a bonehead. Our trade deal with the US will be negotiated on their terms in just the same way that our trade deal with the EU will be on the EU terms. Why? because their economies dwarf ours. Project Reality dawning just as our economy shrivels under the impact of Covid. - 25 November 2020 15:47366425Why be so rude when posting

25 November 2020 17:22366426Biden should concentrate on his homeland and sort his homeland's problems before interfering in ours or Ireland's.
At the risk of upsetting Vic who is obviously a fan of the obnoxious Trump, I liked the description by Ray.

I try to be neutral and polite but it is hard and getting even more difficult at times.

I don't think he's interfering in anything, Jan. He's simply saying that we won't get a trade deal if we break international law.
As for upsetting Vic, I thought 'bonehead' was quite mild given the evidence. The other nouns were purely factual.

26 November 2020 04:48366431 - 26 November 2020 06:01366432For Boris Johnson, Brexit was never anything more than a vehicle to get the PM job, which he took full advantage of.
Now, he's stuck with it and needs to come up with the least worst set of circumstances in which to implement it. That's why we'll do a deal - as no deal will hopelessly expose the futility of it all. Labour's decision to leave the debate on Brexit has depoliticised it to such an extent that the PM can only lose from here on - the question is by how much. Trump's ousting has not helped, and Cummings going tells you that they know big trouble awaits us.... - 26 November 2020 06:43366433Thats why I say at times no commit
- 26 November 2020 20:41366463Yet more indication of what lies ahead.

26 November 2020 21:34366464"With fewer than 40 days to go, it's vital that businesses also take steps to prepare now for the changes and opportunities ahead. That's why we're intensifying our engagement with industry and running a major public information campaign so they know exactly what they need to do to hit the ground running in the new year."
Oh goody! So thinking about my profit margins then, I was wondering if I'll face any tariffs exporting to or importing from the EU in a few weeks time... Perhaps a small, expletive-free clue? Hello, Minister?(Not my real name.)
