Reply to: BoJo's Brexit plan

In general the EU adopts the lowest common denominator when it comes to standards.

The UK's standards are invariable better than the base EU standard.

But you know...

So leaving the EU won't end up in a bonfire of red tape and regulations.

That's good to know.

I thought one of the premise of Brexit was to throw off the shackles of the e.u and sign our own trade deals, or are the Brexiter's moving the goal posts again.

Yes. I said Ireland was being shafted. And after all that they did to try and cripple Brexit, that's how they are rewarded. I hope we can continue to buy from the Irish, they shouldn't have to suffer because their PM is a monumental bellend.

Boris is going to faff around, then on 31 OCtober put a "closed for cleaning" sign outside Parliament so nobody can get in to vote anything

Will BJ reduce taxes as he promised? Or is it all lies as before ...

A huge aid package for Ireland? That'll be the unintended consequence of that fantastic trade deal they just signed with Argentina, who will shortly be flooding the EU with cheap beef, thereby putting Irish farmers on the streets. I won't bother to look up Argentinian food standards, but I bet they're a bit worse than you're average USofA standards. At least the Yanks don't cut down rainforests to produce beef.

How much rainforest is cut down in Argentina to produce beef?

As for what their food standards are like, to be able to export them to the EU, they need to pass EU approval.

Nice try at deflection, but that doesn’t kick in for another 10 years.

It’s a concern, granted, but the blame for Brexit still rests on the shoulders of those who voted for it and the charlatans that encouraged them.

EU prepares huge aid package for Ireland

Presumably this will help Ireland build the border wall.

That will go down well with the US Congress.

So, if Boris does a U turn, what will happen ?

The sheeple who voted for Brexit will follow the u-turn and go back to moaning about 'metropolitan elite'.

Most important will be the identification of the traitors and saboteurs.

Yes, you'll probably need to nip down to the cellar for a few months. Bung £50 into the Xmas drinkies fund and we'll say we don't know where you are...

He'll probably co-opt Jacob Rees-Mogg into the Cabinet and one or two other hard nuts, get the Daily Mail on board and then attach different labels. The article 50 extension will be relabelled a "no deal" preparation and will no longer mention article 50, EU membership will be modified to EU exiting member and the final Brino deal will be relabeled a "managed no deal".

On the positive side, Johnson is more than capable of lying to the cretinous Tory party membership and then betraying them on Brexit.
