    Let’s hope that your diet is over soon, Reason.

    Something tells me that a liberal democracy – a democracy with guarantees of human rights – will  survive a soft Brexit or even, most sensibly, rejoining.

    Thanks to the EU cracking stupid British heads together and forcing a decision, we’ll be able to tell soon.

    Now off to join a

    well, if we do crash out we do have a large pot of money saved up to modify the impact of a catastrophe.

     

    What a shame it wouldn’t go to the police, the NHS or education. They are in deep crisis already without this crap to deal with.

    We live in a semi-literate and innumerate country which is thinking of committing a grave act of…[Read more]

    Thanks for the advice, Paige.

    I’m already married, though.

    We’re working out a way to escape. Everybody should have a Plan B. Jews have always hedged their bets because they’re so aware of living in potential danger.

    This is it, by all accounts.

    She is ready to crash out on 12th April if her deal is defeated next week – and it will be. This is the most accurate reporting, and if you heard her speech and discussion with reporters in Brussels, the message was clear.

    The cabinet is falling apart, and she’s decided which way she’s going even if it involves…[Read more]

    Laine, fully agree with your judgement on Mrs May blaming the MPS for continually rejecting her deal – a deal which would have left us as a genuine vassal state.

    But

    she’s decided to crash out of the EU on 12th April if her deal fails. The FT reported this, and the BBC said the report seems to be very accurate, and May’s speech last night…[Read more]

    any suggestions, Paige??

    To clear up a misunderstanding before I’m accused of being a horrible, horrible man,

    there are two marches but on different dates.

     

     

  • sceptical guy replied to the topic What a Breximess in the forum Getting serious 7 years ago

    Having listened to the Dancing Queen finally going barmy on public tv yesterday evening, I was convinced that she had finally destroyed her own deal. This seems to have been borne out by the reactions within parliament today.

    That looks likely to mean no deal, and that we leave on 29th march unless parliament takes over next week.

    In the last…[Read more]

    Well, Donald Tusk has thrown a spanner in the works.

    He’s basically told parliament to stop shilly shallying around and make their mind up next week or we leave without a deal on 29th March.

    Let’s see if the EU 27 support him in the next day or so.

    It makes sense.

    Nothing concentrates anybody’s mind more than knowing that they’re…[Read more]

    Grrrr….

    you are very wise, though.

    We may easily end up with a no deal catastrophe

  • sceptical guy replied to the topic What a Breximess in the forum Getting serious 7 years ago

    We’ll see soon, Ms Drac.

    We’re on a bus which has gone out of control. no driver, no escape hatches, no real clue as to where it’s going to end up.

    Literally, anything can happen.

    So I’m sitting back, hoping that at some point in the future we’llb e back where we bleong – inside the EU.

     

     

  • Farage walks from Sunderland to London – well, he went a little bit of the way.

     

  • Cosy is still hanging around the chatroom, presenting his invaluable insights.

    Are you both trying to say he isn’t always telling the truth, that he just makes things up, that he doesn’t have the interests of his fellow human beings uppermost in his mind???

    Very difficult for me to believe :-)

  • Well, the actual argument on this thread was quite interesting, though it seems to have come to an end.

  • I don[‘t know how to say until you understand,

    but I really, really can’t be bothered to understand what you’re talking about.

    There are people here who have been trying to make serious points because they enjoy and care about genuine, serious argument and discussion, and still have respect for each other at the end.

  • I don’t agree with you one iota, somer, but you make serious points seriously.

    It does seem that they weren’t groomed by any individual pedo, and it seems certain that they went off their own backs, like the daft 15 year-olds they were, stealing and the jewellery of their devout Muslim parents to get the money.

    But it does seem a fair bet that…[Read more]

  • He goes overboard on personal abuse and attempts to embarrass, Somer, to cover up his poor skills in argument.

    Sophia made a serious point that the girls hadn’t been groomed, with evidence to back it up. I called this evidence into question – as it seemed a bit odd to me, but Sophia backed out of answering my point.

    No personal attack on Sophia at all, if you read it carefully. I don’t accuse her of Islamophobia. I merely asked her to say what her sources were, so that I know that we’re not reading the lies peddled by Britain First. Her information sounded very…[Read more]

  • Your argument is also long and drawn-out, and hardly exciting, but I read it.

    Arguments and discussions on chatroom boards, especially in the Getting Serious section, are precisely the place to pursue a point, and if you won’t read any argument against you then you devalue your own contribution enormously.

    I was wondering if your sources were…[Read more]
