The following is one of the bits from the law of unintended consequences. Apparently the EU have agreed that the UK will have to be outside the security umbrella,as regards crculation of some documents and admittance to meetings.. This is not any way a reflection on the UKs competence, and...

This is not a draft agreement it is an agreement,subject only to ratification. And will be the agreement until someone of the stature of UK PM publical repudiates it. Is that so difficult to follow?. Whether she should have signed it prior to a meeting of your Parliament, is for yourselves in...

I think we will agree that it is very likely that the sun will rise on 30th. March. It is improbable that the powers of darkness are that effective. It will remain to be seen who will be discommoded. But police on both sides of the channel, will have difficulty if the insurance certificates on...

That is the problem.. getting bored with BREXIt. I could see that level of ennui when I was in Swansea in September,but it is a real mistake. The magnitude of which will become apparent in just 4 months time.

What ..they LET people out of Yorkshire??. Who knew?.

Finally something that I can happily agree with with Mr Dobbs of the DUP. In his speech he said "it was not to late, we don't have to accept the deal." I of course hoped he was then going to recommend that Mrs May seek to withdraw the withdrawal... . But that is where he entered the...

.. I understand that they have been "put beyond reach "

Boxes and thinking come to mind!.

Thanks.. I said we would be giving the information to our Government, not that they would act on it!. . In fact the last time that they insigated a water management remedial programme in Dublin, it was on foot of EU instruction that a tranch of structural funding would not be forthcoming unless...

Nope we gave up on rivets a long time ago... There is a restaurant moored on the Liffey which was I understand the last riveted boat made in Ireland.. 1953 i believe. Much more RIVIT these days. The kind of advice would be , might it be a good idea to replace the 170 year old cast iron water...

Rather than your choice of word "Political correctness", I would suggest "moral cowardice. ". I am however concerned about that information about police shunting motorcyclists off the road. Have these people been engaged in activities that justify such actions?. Are those police driving with...

I have links with the professional engineering society in Ireland,and they periodically advise the Irish government. on what in our opinion is sensible policy. We publish annual position papers and ensure that the relevent Minister gets a copy.This is lobbying,but without it the Government...

It's when the police start using rubber bullets, at point blank range, and then live rounds that you might start revising that.

In the 3500 posts I have made on various topics, I doubt I have used such stage Irish balderdash. . Try and insult you?... Don't inflate your importance. You have made a variety of assertions ,I in my feeble way have attempted to correct some of your more obvious errors. I have spent a lifetime...

No no. Wrong in two counts perhaps three points a deal has been negociated, it will NOT be started again, and I assure you I am not your mate. What the third point is that the deal may not pass the vote of the HoC,and I am starting to think it might... So yes we could agree that it likely a...

That was in response to, I think kiwis ,post. . Which negotiation are you referring to?. The withdrawal agreement negotiation has concluded. There might be a few crumbs and fudges and a few I s to be dotted on Sunday but it is OVER. The next phase, is what comes after, and in this phase...

I am sure that the Bill before the HoC can be amended in whatever way you wish. So if you wish to put any amendments about unicorns etc.. feel free, but do not expect that any will have any effect on the EU position. So putting in riders of withdrawal from Article 50.can only be local law. It...

The little guys, big brother comment is fair.. unfortunately when we both went to big school...(EU Parliament) , the big brother played the lout, smoked fags behind the bike shed (come out Farage we know you are in there!) ,while the little brother diligently did his homework.

Yes! yes !..again more agreement... We the irish want the UK in the EU, and it's not just or even the money, .

I do agree with you on that point. There is always a conflict between the generous impulse and the self serving... L. Cohen song put it neatly..". I will help you if I can, I will kill you if I must..." The talk on local radio here, is that the terms of a future trading arrangement of EU/UK...
