          "On 27 June the European Council officially nominated Juncker for the position, and on 15 July the European Parliament elected him with a majority of 422 votes from a total of 729 cast. He succeeded Jose Manuel Barroso as president on 1 November 2014."
          now the real worry is will they ever get their accounts passed, border security sorted or their EU Army off the ground?

            So an agreement not dependent on the EU stops because we leave the EU. Bully boy tactics anyone?

            I wonder how many Asylum seekers will want to be returned to France rather than Syria?

                Russia is not going to invade Europe. You'd think it was the cold war all over again. Indeed the Russian economy cannot support a major conflict and I don't believe we can either. I'm beginning to wonder which defence manufacturer is peddling these stories.

                  A price to be paid for exiting the EU.Everyone knows this is a consequence of their vote.

                  The voters know what they voted for and deserve to get it good and hard.

                    Brexit will not be a pain free 'quickie divorce' by 2019, parliamentary inquiry hears | The Independent

                    Some interesting comments from a commons select commitee on Brexit:

                    A former permanent secretary at the Foreign Office dismissed the former Education Secretary’s call for a post-Brexit trade deal to be struck with the EU by 2019.

                    Instead, Sir Simon Fraser – and academics giving evidence to the Commons Brexit Select Committee – said it was “inevitable” that a transitional agreement would be needed, stretching into the next decade.
                    I like this one:

                    Britain has as few as 20-odd trade negotiators – when Japan, for example, has “thousands”.
                    The Government should not press ahead with EU withdrawal without the consent of Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland – although those parliaments and assemblies do not have a veto.
                    that will speed things up

                    and finally:

                    Sir Simon said it was a mistake to believe a new trade agreement could be concluded in parallel with the two-year timeframe of the Article 50 exit talks, due to start next spring.

                    Describing that ambition as “unrealistic”, he told Mr Gove: “I do not think it’s likely to be an attainable one.” That made an interim deal “inevitable”.

                    Sir Simon also sought to dampen Brexit trade hopes, pointing out it would be less favourable than the current single market arrangements, adding: “This will be an agreement on reducing trade.”

                    And he dismissed a Conservative MP’s claim that an over-gloomy Whitehall is foot-dragging on Brexit, saying: “Civil servants do not feel they have clear political direction.”
                    But have no fear ministers will solve this by shouting very loudly at their Civil Servants

                      Civil servants warn of the dangers for mankind stepping down from the trees. Suggesting it is a step into the unknown. We might sink in the sand, our legs might get tired. Come on, please! FFS this is a joke.
