Sooooo, who would be happy if we 'crashed out'

JoT, a cost has been mentioned. It's just that Barnier (the EU's master negotiator) has, as yet refused to tell the UK exactly how much this is. I wonder if we'll get any of our payments into the EU back though? After all we were a net contributor (not a recipient) Perhaps they could keep our payments and write off the whole bill ? Anyway as I've said before (in case you haven't noticed) Until Barnier lets the UK know how much pound of flesh the EU want, there can be no negotiation. I do think the word "negotiation" has been in the news recently. Christ sake, he's the one dragging out the "negotiations" I wonder why?
Anyrode, following on from one of your earlier posts,, Have you ever left an employer (having given them the requisite notice) and felt obliged to sort the problem they have because you've left their employment?

 

That's rich DA. Not an answer though.

 

Does the word “analagies” hint at their source?

Sorry JJ. I hate picking up on spelling errors (glass houses and all that), but this one made me chuckle.

 

Quite simply because Barnier hasn't yet given anyone a firm figure so negotiations can begin. It would be relatively easy for him to announce the figure the EU has in mind, but still he delays telling even the UK negotiators. Or do you think he has told them, but asked them to keep it secret?
PS for your information, I have never said we're being "kicked out" of the EU. (don't know where you got that idea from ???)

 

Quite alright dear chap, but please address your replies to the poster of the quote.. Thank you in advance. JJ

 

I used to follow it all to the point of obsession. I was outraged at little Britain leaving the EU based on a ridiculous referendum where even the smartest of people didn't have a damn clue what they would be voting on!
I'm over it all now though. I just chill my boots these days.
I think I was probably just bored I wasn't focusing on the important stuff.

 

The British are ruthless, especially with a conservative gov.
They are keeping their powder dry.
I like your thinking Jack

 

JoT also believes that little green men live on Mars. Aliens walk amongst us and everything he watched on the X Files is true.

 

I have seen a UFO they DO exist.
Just because you have not been lucky enough to see one JJ ... maybe you aren't special enough.

 

Hey Twinkle toes, my middle name is Mulder... I believe.

 

Well... don't "believe" everything you hear JJ

 

Hey DA, things are looking up in Austria (or so I've heard)

 

It's Sunday and as a typical remainer, DA has probably spent the entire afternoon down the local boozer.
On his meander back home a few migrants have likely corrected his over incredulous manner after being forced into a slurred conversation.

Still battered and confused, after a few hours he let's rip on the screwfix forum locals.

It is the sabbath day.
