Cornwall_Saint Posted February 5, 2020 Report Share Posted February 5, 2020 Ryannair seek applicants who can travel round the EU freely Many of us did try to point out things like this were going to happen, but it was just “Project Fear” apparently.

Sounds like we are heading for a trade war with the EUrocrats It's even in your dear old lefty times https://www.theguardian.com/business/2020/feb/03/nissan-eu-uk-hard-brexit Did you read The Guardian article? It says it is only one of several options, perhaps no longer relevant.... Quote The contingency plan is said to be one of several drawn up in preparation for post-Brexit tariffs and was drafted before Makoto Uchida became Nissan’s chief executive on 1 December, the FT reported. ...and one unlikely to be chosen! Quote David Bailey, the professor of industrial strategy at Aston Business School, said Nissan’s plan was likely to be only one of multiple options and did not signal a vote of confidence in Britain’s prospects in the event of a hard Brexit. “Nissan has certainly been doing scenario modelling and it’s not clear how current this planning is,” he said. “It’s one possible response to the hard Brexit scenario but I don’t think it’s a feasible plan.” Edited February 5, 2020 by Bud the Baker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No-one's laughing at job losses, the laughter is aimed squarely at the individual for saying something a year and a half ago and completely u-turning today. Do try to keep up.

Blame the EU for no deal, just like blaming the EU because the UK parliament needed three years to make a decision, blaming the EU for all of the UK’s ills. It’s what the Tories have done for a decade and should there be no deal, they’ll blame the EU for that as well. The highlighted statement is as you are well aware .............crap. And blame lays directly at the feet or the remoaners, Tory, Labour and Liberal alike, politicians all who took their wages and ignored the wishes of those they were paid to serve, (voting the way they thought and not in the way the country did) why their is no long term comeback on that I don't know.......there should be.

It’s easy to whine about Remainers and blame them (or the EU) for everything, but at no point did May put an offer in front of them that was worth it’s salt.

MPs are paid to represent their constituents, they're not simply delegates but are meant to scrutinise & challenge the executive as BJ did 3 times on the WA Bill after he resigned from TMs Cabinet. ********************* BJs WA with NI "continuing to follow EU rules" was amongst the first the EU offered us and was rejected by TM & presumably endorsed by her then Foreign Secretary BJ - in fact the WA talks went pretty much the way the EU wanted settling the "divorce bill" first and then getting the deal they originally offered while BJ played to the domestic audience. It makes me wonder how the BJs Govt. will sway when they have to choose between the UK fishing industry and The City in the forthcoming Trade Talks - except with a cabinet containing a number of ex-bankers who will presumably be looking to jump back aboard the gravy train when they move on it doesn't really.

Maybe so, but I would suggest you are entirely missing the point, MP's are/were paid to carry out the 'will of the people' and as both you and I are aware; many (particularly Labour and Liberal MP's) were blocking Brexit purely in order to push for a new referendum, (in direct contradiction of what they were paid for), that is simply out of order. I am also not whining when I point out serious points of civil disobedience, from individuals whom we voted for to carry out our wishes and who by the way are considerably financially well recompensed for doing so. And oddly enough, the 'shite' policies are only considered as such (in the main) by remoaners. I am not foisting blame on individual remoaners, but those paid to do a job, who didn't and if you re-read my posts, none blame the EU.

Personally, I think we'll be OK but given that the practicalities of Brexit won't start happening until the end of the transition period, it's too early for all this. TBH, I don't really understand either the whining or the gloating. For the overwhelming majority of people, no difference in day to day life is going to happen.
