It will come as no surprise, but I find Jonathan's analogy compelling. We hear from accross the pond,about the "Adults in the room " referring to the White House. Well in the UK's case those "Adults" are expected to be in HoC, HoL and the cabinet. The UK is now 100 days from crashing out of...

Someone, sometime published a table on this forum of all the derogations and exemptions the uk had obtained,so no it is not the most compliant nation state. Not by a long shot. Again your understanding is less than perfect. In general the EU proposes regulations, the member states AGREE to...

Yes the best deal is the one the UK currently enjoys,and will continue to enjoy until 30th. March .

In my view the May Deal is the second worst of all possible worlds. ..and is a close run thing for the worst . The problem for any moderate leavers is that it was never going to be better. Wooshs point about additional state aid and nationalisation of previous state assets would not have...

Would you read what I wrote? Or is that beneath you?. I said I would have no problem if they were located next door,or anywhere else in my village. And we actually have accommodation in certain properties. What I would not be interested is in giving them facilities or luxuries which we deny to...

Your second last paragraph I fully agree with. The problem is that this was created by the actions of Western powers ,including the UK but particularly the USA, in full ignorance of any form of history and common sense, made a media event called the Arab Spring. Now while I would not be...

Tilson, your extreme posturing invites a daft response. Life in a refugee camp is close to hell. Life in Syria was hell. Hope is an automatic response of the desperate. I am not desperate to live in England,I have a nice location here, so there is no need for me to discommode myself and entrust...

Or is you being deliberately wrong our fault as well. Well I apologise for confusing you with Zathlan,it was aan honest error, both of you having such diametrically opposed views. But as to the rest... No no error. . Were I deliberately wrong it would not be your fault.. that is childish. And...

I am happy that we are a source of amusement. Before you continue your diatribe about givers and takers ,perhaps you might like to reflect a little. . Ireland was a net beneficiary of EU structural funding up until recently. . It was in that position because of the very poor state of...

So the milk of human kindness so evident in the Christmas Message, from your beloved Queen, has curdled and gone sour.

Fingers have you considered changing your name to fickle... It's not long ago you were extolling the merits of capitalism in China!.

It is in no one's interest,yes. But there is only one body who can do anything about it. The ball is fully in the UK side of the court. And no snivelling if they bottle it.

Well that really makes a lot of sense!. It's not the transit where the delay is likely to occur it's the processing at either end. . The only possible point of increasing the tonnage available is that longer sea routes will be used,with more freight in the water at any time. More waste in...

And without us you go hungry, so we will both be full and satisfied.. Now do you think that that financial arrangement is going to survive a 20 % drop in sterling next year also?.

You are still deluded. I do not hate the English.. they invented Rugby.

Fingers you are deluded.

I dont know where the french actually saw these migrants, but if it were close to the Dover Straites ,or into the sea off Cherbourg ,then they would have been waters claimed by the UK. "Unfortunately, the French will stand back and watch it happen. The nation, I find them to be a snide and...

.or perhaps to local hospices, . You English with your sentimentality towards animals!!!!

As I sit here at home, drinking my Bailey's,my first alcoholic drink in months , I am reminded of the close affinity between our two nations. Bailey's is a modern drink, designed by London based marketeers , working on a commission from the Irish distillers, to make a pleasant new drink with...

See how yellow the light is?. That indicates that as a light emitter it is inefficient.
