They have researchers and advisors galore working out policy moves sufficient to cover all bases and this stratagem was meant to give them time, time in which they'd like some miracle to happen…..or that people become completely disenchanted with the whole affair and stop paying attention to...

Michael O'Leary, no shrinking violet as main spokesman for Ryanair and a man who does not suffer fools gladly, has lots to say about 'Brexit' and those in government pursuing the matter, as reported in 'The New European' yesterday: You should read the article because there is an opportunity to...

Exactly!…..then with proportional representation it could be lots of fun. Tom

Mmm, you'll need to try harder to convince me that that's a good idea, 'oyster'. It's still early in the day and I'm thinking that's probably not going to be your best thought of the day.:) Tom

Here is proof if proof were needed that the BBC, as with all mainstream media in the UK, is nothing more than a propaganda purveyor on behalf of the tory party which, of course, is the political wing of the British establishment: Bobby Gillespie is part of the rock band, 'Primal Scream' which...

I move in mysterious ways…..at least, that's what a consultant orthopaedic surgeon told me! That aside, cats are fascinating creatures and I have owned a few. I have also had dogs and find them much more agreeable companions. I have neither today but if my health were to improve, I'd have...

Finally, someone has thought to ask an inscrutable tabby cat if it had an opinion on 'Brexit' and what would be the best way to proceed: Tom

The head of the PSNI has spoken about the difficulty in policing should 'Brexit' proceed: A Dogs in the Street guide to Brexit and the Irish Border The head of the Police Service of Northern Ireland has been requesting information on Brexit for months but has received only vague ‘stuff and...

What is wrong with Barnier? It's simple; the UK wants everything it has now and considers a benefit but it wants it for free. Apart from that, it doesn't want the EU court and it doesn't want their laws, rules and regulations. Furthermore, it doesn't want an open border policy as the UK is...

That would take too long. Just do a biography of May's successes both as Foreign Secretary and as Prime Minister. If you start now, you could have it done and dusted in time for a swift pint down the pub at lunchtime.:) 'Tillson' could do a great preview for a book like that. Tom

The comments on that Daily Express article about a further referendum on FB are something to behold! They make the 'Rivers of blood' speech seem like a children's fairy-tale, calling for bloody revolution and violence on an industrial scale. There are all sorts of threats including a mob to...

The 'Daily Excess' very kindly provides details of a 'secret' plan by the tories to conduct another referendum. Does that count as a U-turn, I wonder? There is much more in this article: brexit-news-second-referendum-eu-peoples-march-whitehall-plans-theresa-may-latest Tom

The 22nd of October and things are not looking good for the beleaguered PM, indeed, her time spent keeping the seat warm for a more intelligent, intellectually-equipped PM could be coming to an end. There are meetings scheduled for this week which might signal a formal challenge to her……I...

I have never met the man but I thoroughly admire his take on all of those here bickering over the scarce pros and thousands of cons in 'Brexit'. He seems to be a remarkably perceptive judge of character and his decision to rarely post in this thread is probably eminently sensible - shades of an...

Some pearls of wisdom here from Benjamin Zephaniah: Tom

There won't be many tears shed over this news this morning: The story from would you believe, 'SKY News' can be found on this link: pm-drinking-in-last-chance-saloon-mps-say-11531337 Tom

Absolutely spot-on OG! Sadly, so many of those who think 'Brexit' is a great idea really have no idea about modern history and many didn't live during those first two decades after WW2 so have no relevant experience of life in a dying former colonial power. It isn't entirely their own fault...

I'm no great fan of the broadcaster, James O'Brien, but on this occasion I think he has a point. It really does the BBC and other supposed news organs no credit to mention the miniscule pro-'Brexit' gatherings in the same breath as a rally by somewhere between half and three-quarters of a...

……preferably with Johnson and Co on board!:D Tom

Ok 'RobF', can you explain exactly how, when and where the British people will be better off outside of the EU as you must think you are superior to those remainers you condemn, decent citizens who want the best for their country and believe passionately that EU membership offers the best future...
