Do you mean that we will buy VW,Audi,BMW or Mercedes made in Mexico or do you mean that we will buy other brands? KudosDave

Agreed....this is not understood by most Brexiters,because we buy so much from the EU they think that it is the EU businesses that have to pay the tariffs.....I explained this to a Brexiter at a show,he thought I was lying to him. There are products that we buy from the EU that cannot be easily...

The governments white paper released today on a 'no-deal' scenario started to give an insight into the customs problems of no deal. I found a schedule of the tariffs in both directions,these don't include anti dumping duties. The highest tariffs are foodstuff....meat ,fish,vegetables,fruit and...

Agree with that except I think Ireland will be the most hurt,especially if the EU force Ireland to build a hard border,which the EU dont have a choice,unless they want a 300 mile long smuggling route. KudosDave

The EU is probably skint,not surprising when you think that only 4 pay in and 24 receive. We should now walk away from these talks and let the EU make the next move,they dont want us doing free trade deals with Asia and no mechanism for 'dumping' cheap product into the EU. What they want is...

It appears that Theresa May has received advice that Article 50 advised an 'intent' to withdraw but not actually withdraw ,so it can be legally reversed prior to March 2019. See article by Jessica Simor. Kudoscycles

It's not just the Tories who are in-fighting. Merkel and Macron are against Barnier taking over Junckers job. It appears the EU are not keen on our transitional arrangement so May's Florence speech was a waste of times. I am still a remainer but it must be time to walk away from these...

It is difficult to see how Davis and Barnier are going to come to a deal when it is obvious that,at this time,their masters don't want a deal.... KudosDave

And the expats living in the EU should have been allowed to vote...it seems incredulous that the very people who were most affected by the vote were excluded from it. KudosDave

It's becoming obvious that the EU don't want a trade deal after Brexit but they will happily take £100 billion off us on the way. That's not surprising,Fox is busy trying to get free trade deals out of China and India,why would the EU want to give the UK a free trade deal when it looks likely...

We have discussed this many times before,the term 'off road' is actually not precise enough. It should really state that the derestricted bike can only be used on private land with no public access...if you look on an OS map you will see that such land is almost impossible to find,even private...

Its amazing that after the lad killed the woman with his fixed wheel bike and got 2 years for it (he was lucky the law didnt allow more) you would think that sensible adults would want to ensure that their bicycles are as legal as possible. Yet,on this forum,posters are stupid enough to tell the...

David Davis got himself lost today,trying to exit the Tory party conference....not surprising he can't exit the EU,hehe KudosDave

Actually, I don't like any of the current crop of politicians,but I suppose we have to make a choice. If Corbyn follows through with raising the max rate of income tax and putting corporation tax back to 25% that would be a big negative for my business. I am starting to prefer the Rees- Mogg...

Are you sure? Don't forget this Tory government and its leader are the party of U-turns??? KudosDave

I don't think he was short of pilots....don't forget these cancellations are spread right through the winter period....he surely could not predict he would be short of pilots for 6 months ahead,that would be incompetent. This won't affect Ryanair,in many cases Ryanair is the only airline flying...

After making my posting ,I searched whether others thought similarly. It appears that the Ryanair low cost model,now has a general buzzword 'unbundling'... Uber,Amazon,Sports Direct are all proponents of 'unbundling'....we like unbundling it gives us cheap products supplied as cheaply as...

O'Leary is considered within the airline industry a genius,he certainly considers that there is no such thing as bad publicity. These recent flight cancellations blamed on having insufficient pilots would suggest an incompetent airline but O'Leary and Ryanair are one of the most carefully...

Yep,Farage as our Brexit negotiator. Send Boris off to North Korea and Rees-Mogg off to Iran and all our troubles will be over................bang!!!!!! KudosDave

Sorry what's going well. DD keeps telling us talks are constructive but doesn't say why they are constructive. Walk away from a deal, then you find out how keen the other side are to do a deal. KudosDave
