It no longer matters to me how simple or how difficult the secession from the EU becomes over the remaining negotiation period and beyond. The UK's future is doomed unless a socialist government is elected soon. I expect that by the time the post-'Brexit' financial pain finally becomes...

This set of figures from Robert Peston is interesting although I'm sure there are several alternative sets, depending on which mindbending news provider you choose from the tory propaganda wing: Tom

The columnist of The Irish Times who penned this today has grasped the problem May and her gluttonous party of inbreds face: fintan-o-toole-parishes-of-fermanagh-and-tyrone-are-unravelling-brexit-1.3201011 Tom

I thought about that for a moment.....a very brief moment before convincing myself that I couldn't manage that; not now, not back then - not ever! This guy must be a masochist and get pleasure out of self-inflicted pain but fair play to him, he's one of a very small bunch of extremely...

Those who use the major social media sites will have become aware by now of the latest government initiative, using new laws specifically created to ensure that the government's propaganda organs will be the only news available to the masses. This 'initiative' could ultimately make 'Brexit'...

Fascinating story, 'Tillson'! Glad to know you're still around after that lengthy hiatus in your forum contributions - you really haven't missed much on the 'Brexit' issue, I can assure you. I'm sure the answer to the 'divining' mystery lies in this very forum and I can think of at least one...

The world is in flux. This morning, the nutters in charge of N Korea decided it would be impressive and frightening to fire a missile over Japan. We now await the White House reaction to that act. We already know the Japanese are more than a little p'd off. The American President is losing...

While we ponder the best way to avoid death on our roads through the daily interaction of powerful vehicles, bicycles and pedestrians, the Dutch, who are way ahead of the UK in such matters already, have people studying the feasibility of a new type of surface for their cycle lanes: Tom

Most decent human beings condemn Trump's political initiatives in America and the recent neo-nazi demonstrations seen on the streets should not have come as a surprise to people in the UK. Let's not forget that our UK PM has assured the American President of our commitment to the 'Special...

How's 'Brexit' going? In spite of all the propaganda being disseminated by the government's media arm, Bloomberg's see a disappointing future based on official figures. They seem to be in agreement with the view of the BofE that things don't look too healthy...

It's a great shame that the late, great American comic and social commentator, George Carlin wasn't around long enough to speak his mind on the referendum result........ Tom

In my retirement, I have been around countless country piles and great gardens but I'm afraid I have to agree with you 'flecc'; I'd demolish most of them too as they represent the iniquity of British society, a society that is geared to maintaining the interests of the wealthy few at the expense...

Yes, I'm quite sure that in the UK if the concept became popular, some entrepreneurial type like Branson or those of his ilk would commercialise that kind of decent charitable gesture and charge hospitals, hospices and old people's homes for the service, creating a national network with a board...

I didn't see this 3 months ago when it was published but no-one should be surprised by the content of the brief article: 5 Tom

Some recent views on 'Brexit' matters: these-4-letters-about-brexit-all-went-viral-its-easy-to-see-why Tom

You start off by saying, 'I think' and I believe you actually think too much. Your posts really ought to begin with 'Once upon a time' as your perception of reality and lack of understanding of what 'Remainers' want drifts further and further into a world of make-believe. You are over-reliant...

Ireland might prove to be more difficult than May and her gang of class warriors ever imagined in the secession arrangements: former-irish-president-mary-mcaleese-says-border-controls-inevitable-after-brexit-36069959.html Tom

A great many 'Brexidiots' are alleged to have stated they don't mind if 'Brexit' hits them in the pocket just so long as they get rid of all the foreigners and we get our sovereignty back. Some FX companies are doing their best to help ensure that the monetary element at least is...
