I would be delighted to see Wales in the EU... I do however see it as one of the regions of England ,..just as the West Country is another region of England. And of course I would be thrilled to see England in the EU.

Occupied territories?. The HoC is supreme, it can put the Hebrides or the Gower under martial law any time it suits them

With respect oyster,and,I have a sister living in Swansea, Wales lost its freedom at least a thousand years ago and is seen as part of England, as much as Wessex and Mercia... The only thing going for them is a brilliant Rugby tradition, . I cannot see any independent Wales Sorry.

Unlike the rest of you, I have no death wish, and intend living forever or die in the attempt. I am reminded of the Woody Allen line, that some people seek immortality by doing amazing deeds, whereas he wished to achieve it by simply not dying.

From the Irish Times ... "Irish exports exceeded €152.5 billion last year, the highest total on record. New figures from the Central Statistics Office show exports jumped by 8 per cent or €11.9 million versus the €140.5 million reported in 2018. Medical and pharma goods accounted for a third of...

Not to worry flecc, The only ones I would recognise are the provincial flags, . The GAA county colours , are well regarded , but only as sporting colours, ..like jockeys silks. We are not big into this heraldry thing... You will notice that the St Patrick flag logo only appears on "Royal "...

I have it on good authority that St Patrick was not big into flag waving. This so called flag is yet another invention by perfidious Albion , who created it just 7 years before the 1801 Act of Union . Those Georgians were very big into their secret societies and Knights

Interesting comment on the blue black ink.. It contains a lot of iron . So eventually when the pigment had leached, the registers would have red rust residue, for hundreds of years. My brother liked the taste of it,and would come home from school with a blue mouth and tongue.

Flecc.. not a smart move. Since on many occasions you have indicated your flat borders a wood , Even a thick Irishman can figure out where the blue tag belongs.

Well on this we disagree. The UK has left the EU. A special deal is in place with a small fraction of the UK, located on primarily EU territory, for people whose birthright is now EU citizenship. There is a transitional arrangement in place for the remainder of the UK,which terminates next...

Correction .. as of last week you have all left. There is a short term interim measure,so that the shock is not immediate.

No. There are no remainers or leavers in the UK anymore .. just the Left. ( That is going to sit with difficulty on some)

I note with regret that Mr J Smith has been sacked as NI Secretary. He was very well regarded , both by all parties in NI (a rare accomplishment ) , and here in the South, as someone with a head on his shoulders and succeeded in getting the Assembly up and running.

.. some of us are beyond the first flush of youth. ..

I disagree with Woosh. The CD gives a fully authentic cycling experience..The faster you pedal, the faster you go . The hub is like a being on a conveyor belt.

You must be joking.. If by Irish you mean RoI forget it, and EU negotiations ,why would it matter?

Unfortunately there might be some truth there. And in a real sense Brexit did not help. Government and the main opposition party has being playing a blinder regarding Ireland's position post Brexit, but there is an assumption that it is under the bridge water, meanwhile the housing situation...

Just correcting your difficulty with language. Pres. Trump was and remains IMPEACHED.. that is to say an Act of the Congress Impeached him. This was brought to the Senate, which after considering opening arguements by Consul, voted not to call witnesses. They then as a majority voted not to...

Whatever.. There was and is very considerable drag with the Urban Mover . I have no such drag with the Bosch . It is as easy to cycle with zero power as any conventional heavy bike.
