I agree, I know i gave an answer, which makes you doubly daft when you say you never got an answer



I know you are getting old but please try and keep up with what you type yourself

I'll explain this slowly as I know it may take time for you to understand.

The one you have just quoted was the question I asked a week and a half ago. The one I quoted was the one I asked a month ago :facepalm:

I was simply pointing out that you have been asked this question a number of times over a long period and never given an answer other than 'i don't know' :shrug:

I'm now going to go and watch some paint dry :bigwave:

You havnt asked me the question a number of times,thats a lie, other people are not me. You asked me once, i answered. You dont like the answer i gave so then say i gave NO answer......more bullshit

I typed as slowly as i could so you can understand.

Regardless of your views on Brexit, I'd say Boris Johnson's comments this morning are an absolute disgrace. What exactly has he been doing himself for the past 2 years? He's painting himself as some sort of helpless bystander in all of this, rather than one of the main Brexit cabinet ministers responsible for negotiations.

And now as reality bites - and it is quite clear the EU hold all the aces in the negotiations just many of us predicted, he's squealing like a fat pig and blaming everyone but himself. It is quite diabolical that such a blatant self-centred opportunist (not to mention quite diabolical politician) is anywhere near the front of the Tory party.

I read this morning the results of some polling done by Deltapoll on both Irish unification support in Northern Ireland and support for independence in Scotland:

Irish unification:

If UK stays in The EU - For-40%/Against-60%
If UK leaves The EU - For-57%/Against-43%
If UK leaves The EU and hard border - For-58%/Against-42%

Scottish Independence:

If UK remains in EU - Yes-48%/No-52%
If UK leaves The EU - Yes-52%-No-48%

A price worth paying and would have happened anyway etc - Congratulations to both The Conservative and Unionist Party and The Democratic Unionist Party though - genius. :bowdown:

Yep, this, and David Davis too..

I scan-read the covers of the major broadsheets this morning - good god this brexit thing has got so ****ed up, its just beyond rescue now. We either run headlong over the cliff in no deal territory that ****s us all, or leave with some deal that every prominent Brexiteer will complain about, thus prolonging the brexit wrangling for ever and ever. This is never ever going to end is it?

Please just give us a second referendum so that we can free ourselves from this nonsense, I can't see any other way out right now

He had been shuffled off into a totally unsuited Foreign Secretary role in an attempt to shut him up about Brexit.Watch out for some fireworks at the Tory conference.

If anyone should know about negotiating with other countries and blocs it's the Foreign Secretary. So by "totally unsuited" do you mean Boris knows absolutely sod all about it?

I've long thought he was given the job he couldn't refuse,so he would commit political seppuku by making a fool of himself,but he has managed to stay popular so spells trouble for May.

You might learn something instead of dismissing Twitter as nonsense. Theresa May, Boris Johnson and Nigel Farage all use Twitter. Do they speak nonsense?

That states why you think he was given the job and where you think he is now (he's loathed internally in the party, more popular with the activists). But the point was Foreign Secretary requires many of the same skills as a PM or a Brexit negotiator. Diplomacy, negotiation, pragmatism over populism. If Boris was, by your own admission, an unsuitable FS then he'd be even worse as leader or in the Brexit negotiations.

"I think the navy blazer with regiment badge , CRAVAT and dark slacks with highly POLISHED brogues ensemble goes down well with the swivel eyed LOONS" - well, as a remoaner yourself, I guess you probably do know what might impress your fellow remoaners. Can't see that look cutting much ice anywhere else though...............

As you well know I voted for BREXIT and I have been dressing like that for years so pick another SLUR and SMEAR

I agree with you. To enlarge, he was appointed to suit the internal convenience of the chaotically-split Conservative Party, making the crazy appointment all of a piece with the calling of the referendum in the first place. The driving force behind this 30-month charade, a comedy turn that has sent this country from stable sovereign state to an international joke, has been to attempt to do what is right for the Tories, not what is right for the country.

Most Brexit enthusiasts seem to either regard the whole carnival as a light-hearted joke or as a price-worth-paying for we're-not-sure-what.

They are politicians,and have to appeal to the lowest common denominator.I sometimes look if a twitter link is posted,but have yet to see anything vaguely interesting.Donald Trump,Katie Price,Jean-Claude Junker all use twitter as well.
