There is a hard border at Switzerland. It is policed, much of the border is either lakes or sheer mountains. People can walk freely accross but goods are checked...and since the only way goods can get in or out is by rail, or road into the EU , not a great problem. Bringing ship loads of...

Yes just like the number of serial sheep stealers went down after capital punishment was introduced after the first offence... Ever wonder why?.

Swiss, racial, stereotyping, Nazi, Jews .... Not playing it safe but also not stepping into a sewer. As has been said before on this forum, not going there,where the trolls are more experienced.

My proposal would be to include all uses. Again marine diesel is even easier to measure consumption because the motors are fixed speed and the hours running is a better measure of consumption. The same would be the case for static uses. Again the manufacturers can supply realistic operational...

Sorry, not going into the Racist quagmire.

I have theories regarding the washed diesel, some of which do not reflect well on the British and Indeed Irish Governments. DERV is just a diesel with a coloured dye added, red in the UK, green in Ireland. The problem of washed Diesel could be overcome with the stroke of a pen. Remove the...

No... It doesn't test animals or plants. If it were trivial it would not have been contentious. The situation with Switzerland is that it has well established treaties with the EU, and very important has no major sea port. ..There is a limited amount of goods you can ship by air.

It was always more nuanced than rabid brexiteers were prepared to accept. The Irish position and accepted by Brussel was that there be no physical border posts along the Border. That is what the Backstop,so called ,was. If alternative technological solutions were to arise ,and these were...

Sometimes humour falls flat. This is one such time. Whether it merits a prosecution is debatable, but an apology is not. Even if she is not prepared to, the BBC should apologise. There are numbers of women,.. particularly women who have had their faces destroyed,.

Incidentally, and I don't do it often, but I agree with Farage, and believe that Brand should immediately withdraw her "humourous" remarks regarding battery acid. If not the BBC has only one course of action.

Then what?. What happens if say 15 of the Tory MPs cannot stomach him as MP. Does he need a vote of confidence before or after he visits the Queen?.

Note I used the words evade, and prevaricate. Very early in my professional career myself and another individual were summoned to the Director of Manufacturing operations in respect of some glitch. The other person told untruths , and I promised myself there and then, I would not let myself get...

That is what might be termed transactional morality. Integrity pays off in the end. Not taking the moral high ground, and engaging in hypocritical cant, but taking the time and effort to separate fact from fiction and speaking truth to power, when you actually know what the truth is. We can...

Well since the negatives are very evident , perhaps no surprise, but it is true of course, and potentially increases employment,until it is full,then employers need to pay more. But those same workers need to eat and buy oil for heat,and these become more and more expensive. And guess what...

Again I can agree to an extent, . As I wrote at the time there were and presumably still are three camos in the HoC. 30% against any form of Remain 30% against any form of Leaving and 30% willing to accept any solution.

Sorry Woosh, that is rewriting history. The reason the UK did not leave on 29March, was because, Mrs May requested an extension. The EU Council unanimously approved that extension. The reason the UK did not leave in April was because Mrs May requested an additional extension,.The only reason...

There is one and only one Withdrawal Agreement. It is signed and sealed by the EU and the UK negotiation team last October . It has not been touched since then and in my opinion will not be altered by one jot .

Grey, I think that is becoming more likely every day. The two strong allies in the EU supporting extensions of Thrusk and Merkel will be gone by October.

Much as I would prefer this to other scenarios I think that events create their own momentum and the UK slide will accelerate,with the now successful Brexiteers chortling in their victory, as the pound slides away.

Absolutely correct.. the only actions within the UK's control, is No Deal or Repeal Article 50
