BREXIT THREAD A MILLION

[idunnosomename]

Brexit can't be postponed. We've left the EU and the rules will change of the 1 jan

[Shoulders?-Stomach!]

At last. Hope.

They are actually insane aren't they? This is a level of blithering precum idiocy that could not possibly inflict someone of sound mind.

[chveik]

yep it'd be less mental if he had predicted the return of king goblin clowne the third

[idunnosomename]

i guess he had a bit too much booze at Sunday lunch and sat down with his iphone. anyway this is the bloke who wrote the nazi wank-fodder fatherland so whatever

[BlodwynPig]

he's gone too far this time

[Fambo Number Mive]

At last. Hope.

Seems more like his fantasy. Was there not enough room for "My books to top the fiction charts each week and for Seamus Milne to be gunged?"

[idunnosomename]

it's also really gross how he genuinely wants the second COVID spike to be really serious just so he can Stop Brexit. with Jeremy Hunt and Sir Keith.

[jobotic]

More likely than "Brexit has to be postponed" is "This fucking Government presses on with Brexit regardless of how badly fucked the country is going to end up."

This fucking government presses on with Brexit because of how badly fucked the country is going to end up.




Vote Leave are in control. Why the fuck would it be delayed?

[idunnosomename]

it cant. if there was an absolutely chaotic global emergency there would need to be new agreements drawn up, because we have left the EU and will default to our new trade agreements negotiated by Liz "Pork Markets" Truss and Liam "Sweaty" Fox on 1 Jan 2021

[Ferris]

it's also really gross how he genuinely wants the second COVID spike to be really serious just so he can Stop Brexit. with Jeremy Hunt and Sir Keith.

"Fingers crossed loads of cunts die horrible deaths, sacrificed on the altar of beigeness so Keith gets to be a tory's #2."

No idea who this person is but that is certainly a hot take.

[idunnosomename]

actually to be fair his 2007 novel The Ghost was implicitly critical of Blair despite Harris being a big New Labour donor. then of course it was adapted into a film directed by

oh no

Roman Polanski!!!!

[Paul Calf]

The degree of self-delusion under which the mainstream commentariat is labouring is both terrifying and staggering.

[Mr_Simnock]

yep it'd be less mental if he had predicted the return of king goblin clowne the third

but HE is coming back, he is.......

[BlodwynPig]

but HE is coming back, he is.......

keep up

[dissolute ocelot]

Global warming causes a new ice age, the entire population of Britain is forced to decamp to the south of France, the Queen dies in a hilarious helicopter crash, and Edward Heath's ghost is elected President of Europe. QAnon was right!

Iain Duncan Smith is complaining about the Withdrawal Agreement he voted for:

Buried in the fine print, unnoticed by many, is the fact we remain hooked into the EU's loan book

Had he not read the deal thoroughly before he signed it?

Boris promised no documentation for travel to Northern Ireland from Britain (er we'll see how that goes), he didn't say anything about needing a visa to go from the rest of England to Kent:

Under extraordinary proposals, truckers driving on designated roads to Dover and the Eurotunnel at Folkestone will need a digital, 24-hour "Kent access permit" which would be issued to them in advance of travel if they can confirm they have the required paperwork to take their goods across the border.

Chris Yarsley, policy manager for Road Infrastructure at Logistics UK, said the "Kent permit" plan was tantamount to creating an "internal U.K. border." Drivers who don't have one would face £300 fines and their lorries could be impounded if they don't pay.

[idunnosomename]

Sounds great

Taking back control of ARE BORDERS!!

Apart from when anyone in the entire world enters the EU, travels to Ireland, crosses the border to Northern Ireland, and goes to GB without checks.

It's OK, they'll probably just check the brown ones.

Looks like there could be major disruption to food trade due to the Government:

...Thousands of British food businesses could be left without the correct labelling required to continue selling to the European Union and Northern Ireland after the UK government missed an industry deadline to advise them on what new rules they will have to follow.

Britain will leave the EU's trading rules at the end of this year, after which the labels that British food and drink businesses use will no longer be legally recognised on the continent.

UK trade associations repeatedly warned Prime Minister Boris Johnson's government that the end of August was the absolute deadline for issuing guidance that will allow them to produce new labels in time for January 1.

However, with just four months to go, they are still waiting for clarity from the UK government on the labelling rules they will have to follow in 2021...

It's alright though, blue passports.

[dissolute ocelot]

^They should just put all British food and drink in a pouch with the queen on it and the label "British shit" and export it to Europe. Surely that'll meet labelling regulations?

[jobotic]

More Remoaner IRA Sympathiser Project Fear nonsense.

It doesn't matter about the labels because the food will all be rotting in the back of lorries that have parked up on the M20 for days.

Look what this bunch of cunts are up to now (according to the FT):

The UK is planning new legislation that will override key parts of the Brexit withdrawal agreement, risking the collapse of trade negotiations with Brussels. 

Sections of the internal market bill — due to be published this Wednesday — are expected to "eliminate the legal force of parts of the withdrawal agreement" in areas including state aid and Northern Ireland customs, according to three people familiar with the plans. 

The move would "clearly and consciously" undermine the agreement on Northern Ireland that Boris Johnson signed last October to avoid a return to a hard border in the region, one person with knowledge of the plans said.

Last week, the EU's chief negotiator Michel Barnier warned that "a precise implementation of the withdrawal agreement" was vital for the success of trade talks and a key issue of trust between the two parties.

"It is a very blunt instrument," said one of those familiar with the matter. "The bill will explicitly say the government reserves the right to set its own regime, directly setting up UK law in opposition with obligations under the withdrawal agreement, and in full cognisance that this will breach international law."

The UK internal market bill, outlined in a 100-page white paper in July, is designed to secure the "seamless functioning" of trade between England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland after the UK leaves the EU's single market and customs union at the end of this year.

But some clauses in the bill will effectively override parts of the so-called Northern Ireland protocol, which was signed alongside the withdrawal agreement in October and has enraged prominent Brexit-supporting MPs who see it as a threat to British sovereignty. 

A government spokesperson said it was "working hard to resolve outstanding issues" with the Northern Ireland protocol. The spokesperson added: "As a responsible government, we are considering fallback options in the event this is not achieved to ensure the communities of Northern Ireland are protected."

Under the withdrawal agreement, the UK must notify Brussels of any state aid decisions that would affect Northern Ireland's goods market, and compel businesses in the province to file customs paperwork when sending goods into the rest of the UK. But clauses in the internal market and finance bills will force the UK courts to follow the new UK law rather than the EU deal, diluting the ability of the protocol to intrude on UK state aid policy.

The autumn finance bill, used to write the chancellor's Budget into law, is also expected to overwrite a third aspect of the Northern Ireland protocol covering the payment of tariffs on goods entering the region, according to those familiar with the plans. 

Officials say the plans risk poisoning the prospects of an eleventh-hour deal.

Lord Frost, the UK chief negotiator, has already deepened tensions ahead of negotiations that are due to resume in London on Tuesday, saying in a Sunday newspaper interview that the UK would not become a "client state" of the EU.

A second person familiar with the impending bill said that Lord Frost had personally driven the decision to take the "nuclear option" of overwriting the withdrawal agreement, despite progress being made in talks on implementing the Irish protocol.

And Boris Johnson ramped up his rhetoric ahead of the next round of negotiations with the EU, warning that there were only five and a half weeks left to strike a trade deal. 

"There needs to be an agreement with our European friends by the time of the European Council on 15 October . . . if we can't agree by then, then I do not see that there will be a free trade agreement between us, and we should both accept that and move on," he said.
 
The prime minister added that a no-deal outcome could still be positive for the UK. "I want to be absolutely clear that, as we have said right from the start, that would be a good outcome for the UK."

He said the UK would not change its approach to the negotiations in order to strike a deal.

Christophe Hansen, the European Parliament's lead MEP for the adoption of the future trade agreement, told the FT that the full respect of the withdrawal agreement was a core "trust" issue and a "litmus test" of the UK's willingness to honour deals with Brussels. 

"It is very important for us to see that it is put in place," he said, warning that otherwise, the EU could not be confident that Britain would respect any future-partnership arrangement.

dont blink till you see the whites of their eyes, boys!

lucky we aren't negotiating with the chinkies!!! ahahaha!!!

For years it's been obvious that only the most destructive damaging Brexit would be acceptable to these psychopaths. Imagine the bonfire of human and employment rights that is to come next year, along with environmental and financial regulation.

W should never forgive those who voted for this or those FBPE filth who did all they could to destroy the only possibility of it being avoided, because they didn't want to pay more tax.

I just want to cry.

[Paul Calf]

The lengths to which comfortable (or just outright wealthy) people will go to to avoid paying a little bit more tax is fucking astounding. Literally destroying society to avoid an extra £250-ish year on their tax bills

[BlodwynPig]

Paul, give me the nod when it's "time" to engage the "plan".

[Paul Calf]

You will know.

I'll send the sign.

[Paul Calf]

_{Take 2:}

I'll send The Sign.





^{Was that better, love? I think one should try to avoid overplaying these things, but it is called 'drama' after all.}
