"
Theresa May quietly reveals the 'eye watering' salaries of her top aides on the first day of Christmas holiday
The Tories quietly slipped out details of top Government advisors' pay on the first day of the Christmas Holiday
"
Theresa May’s top two aides are paid a combined £280,000 a year, figures revealed tonight.
The Prime Minister’s joint chiefs of staff, Fiona Hill and Nick Timothy, each pocket £140,000 salaries.
Mrs May’s press chief Katie Perrior gets £125,000, while the PM herself receives £149,440 a year."

How does an aid justify £140,000 a year?
Truly the people who imagined they would get a good deal by leaving the EU to be ruled by these parasites are deluded.

This pointless troublemaker is still with us apparently, and still doesn't understand the reality of the situation, thick remainers eh?
Pretty much sums up his intellect .

I see your plan now, get noticed on here, then get picked for a plum job.

The best of luck, I wish I had the time.

It now seems likely that any deal the UK will have with the EU need to be ratified by 27 member states. Nomura said 'there is room for a correction on disappointment' as the talk progresses, which could send the Pound below $1.20.

That seems to be an absolute for any EU dealings. The position for agreements is the same as that with trade. In both respects the EU is just an administrative overseer, all trading and agreements are with the other 27 members individually. Effectively that means each has a veto, very much narrowing how much scope there is for variation.

If the deal is blocked by one or a few of the EU27, do you think that a second referendum is likely?

I think it would be very likely if the only terms that could be agreed with the 27 are markedly different from a true Brexit.

Abruptly casting the country to life without any EU trading seems unthinkable, so backing down on departure could become the best option.

And very likely the brexit voters would find themselves demanding a referendum, how ironic[emoji1]

Hmm... looks like the funding for all these "patriotic" right wing groups fighting to get their countries back, seems to be running out.
It would be money down the drain anyway. In mainland Europe and indeed Britain, there's a barrier at about a third of the voting population beyond which people won't vote for the far right.

Mosley, Farage and the Le Pens have all flogged this dead horse in turn, without success.

The only exception was Hitler in the 1930s as a direct result of Germany being so grievously treated following World War 1, our fault. We didn't make that mistake after WW2, so even Germany cannot produce a far right wing majority now.

So you think all remainers are thick OG ?
If cap fits. You sure aren't gifted OG.

But I,m putting you back in the box, the ignore one.
Does anyone understand what this fool imagines he is doing?
It must be hard to contradict yourself regularly and and so consistently misunderstand the other posters, but he/she/it manages it every time!

No wonder that it couldn't make it's few brain cell form enough of consensus to vote either way in the referendum.
