harry94 Posted October 2, 2018 Share Posted October 2, 2018 Take with a massive pinch of salt but this Twitter thread is quite interesting and a few months from finalising the departure from the EU - it does at least appear consistent with many things we've seen. Parliament doesn't look ready to act with the state Labour are in and how talk of rebellions and new centrists anti-Brexit/EEA alliances have always fallen short of reality. There seems to be no one right now placed to take over the Tory party and the membership is very very pro hard Brexit with Labour also having their rebellions and MPs terrified at being portrayed as against the will of the people. Go down the route of fucking things up and then blaming everybody else would be entirely consistent with this government who own the press who are happy to shovel nonsense to the population. It isn't a minority of backbench Tory MPs, there's a considerable number who have authored books with ideas like privatising the NHS and moving to what's essentially a zero tax economy where councils are self-sufficient and don't need central funding (which is a target in England and Wales for the next few years); the alliance between Conservatives across the Atlantic has existed for a long time and is very much alive. There have been political realities that have stopped a lot of these batshit ideas but Brexit would be the biggest government project since WW2 and has the potential to really drive change in every aspect of life. I could understand why certain individuals could see now as ideal conditions to try and reshape the country in their image. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ICTJohnboy Posted October 2, 2018 Share Posted October 2, 2018 Anyone old enough out there to remember who delivered this speech? First, welcome to Lancaster House for the launching of this “Europe Open for Business” campaign. It is the first step along the path of preparing Britain's companies to take the opportunities presented by completion of the Single Market in the European Community in 1992. We must get this right. Too often in the past Britain has missed opportunities. How we meet the challenge of the Single Market will be a major factor, possibly the major factor, in our competitive position in European and world markets into the twenty-first century. Getting it right needs a partnership between government and business. The task of government is two-fold: —to negotiate in Brussels so as to get the possible results for Britain; —and then to make you the business community aware of the opportunities, so that you can make the most of them. It's your job, the job of business, to gear yourselves up to take the opportunities which a single market of nearly 320 million people will offer. Just think for a moment what a prospect that is. A single market without barriers—visible or invisible—giving you direct and unhindered access to the purchasing power of over 300 million of the world's wealthiest and most prosperous people. Bigger than Japan. Bigger than the United States. On your doorstep. And with the Channel Tunnel to give you direct access to it. It's not a dream. It's not a vision. It's not some bureaucrat's plan. It's for real. And it's only five years away. Clue : Often described (by some) as an "Iron Lady" 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think he's right about what the pro-Brexit Tories are doing in terms of not negotiating in good faith and deliberately running down the clock to engineer a no deal Brexit and agree it is sensible to put in a stock of food over the next few months for that scenario if you can afford it, but some of the rest about using emergency powers is a bit too Alex Jones to be worth taking seriously. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baxter Parp Posted October 3, 2018 Share Posted October 3, 2018 Verhofstadt: On Brexit, we will never accept discrimination based on skills and nationality. We will never accept an extension on article 50. Enough mess has been created by Brexit. Let's stop it! We will never undermine the principles of our Union to rescue the Tory party. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
