Zern Posted April 22, 2022 Share Posted April 22, 2022 Brexit and the NI Protocol to become focus for Tory's going forward; so stupid. Quote Whitehall insiders told the daily that Mr Johnson's administration was developing the plans partly in anticipation of a new constitutional crisis if Unionist parties, which reject the Protocol, refuse to re-enter the region’s power-sharing executive after the May 5 elections. Under the proposed legislation, ministers would have unilateral powers to switch off key parts of the protocol in UK law. This would include border checks on goods travelling to the region from Great Britain. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's ok, the Indian government passed legislation which discriminates against muslims while the BNP uses dog whistles to stoke anti muslim violence for political ends. I'm sure they can sell that to Tory voters. Plus the caste system. Plus removing autonomy for the troublesome Northern province. If they could just be a bit whiter they'd be perfect tories. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, effectively, if I've got this right, we now have the same passport rights as other EU nations in Portugal? Doesn't that mean that we now have the same rights as we had pre-Brexit? Why is this being spun as good news? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's being reported in the usual suspects as an embarrassing defeat for the (sinister) EU in their attempt to punish brits for the brexit rebellion. The suggestion is that Portugal wants us so much they're going against EU rules for us. They're not of course. They're exercising their sovereign powers to make their own laws on border controls like all EU countries can do to a significant degree. It's not quite a return though because you can't easily stay as long as you like. It is good news unless you like airport queues, just not quite for the reasons some are implying. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

101 Posted April 28, 2022 Share Posted April 28, 2022 4th delay this time until the end of 2023. So perhaps Brexit will be done by 2024 if they can get Northern Ireland sorted out?

Also a tacit admission in there that Brexit implementation is going to cost a fortune.

France is a perfectly safe country so he should just stay there. He's not a genuine refugee so if he tries to cross the channel he should be sent to Rwanda. Lovely country, excellent human rights. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
