I thought it was Switzerland last week? Is this the headless chicken of remain?

Odd how the posters who don't live in the country have the most to say about it all.

Maybe they're just sad at seeing their homeland that they possibly wanted to return to at sometime, go to the dogs...

possibly, possibly but I think that old veteran Michael Heseltine has:

Michael Heseltine - Hard Brexit completely dead

When Hard Brexit is dead and you end up with "Soft Brexit", what is the difference between that and membership, except for the fact that you've thrown away your influence. That is a debate that is probably going to be had.

Good ol' Hezza. He'll come to terms with it eventually. Or not. One or the other. In the mean time, I do enjoy the shifting sands of terminology surrounding "soft".

I don't think Polly has ever hit anything on the head, except perhaps herself.

Polly Toynbee hits the nail on the head.

Whatever you think about Corbyn, the Tories are simply unfit to govern.

The Tory party are about to split

So you'll be paying more personal tax _and_ your share of the tax increase on the multinational corps, which they'll pass on entirely to their mug customers.

And Labour will still manage to piss away what little extra revenue this brings in (for short a while, before the megacorps work round it).

What's the alternative?



Fox hunting?

No thanks.

[OwlHoot]

I'm happy to pay more IF they actually successfully get the fair and decent amount out of Multi National big corps, and the super rich driving around in white AMG Mercedes.

Regardless if it was more than 3 he was lying.

I remember clips of him holding and drinking pints...

It was a friendly jest.

[PurpleGorilla]

It doesn't matter what you mean (in relation to this). It'll be Corbyn & McDonnell collecting the taxes.

I thought it was up to 14 pints. Get your facts right.

By super rich - I mean top 1%.

According to Korbyn and his kronies, you are the super rich.

Not according to my accountant.

A lot will realise this if he gets into power. Free everything for everyone and if he can't collect enough tax he can always requisition stuff. Just remember kids all property is theft.

The non-ruling Tory party is riven so deeply within itself on Brexit that it is ungovernable as well as unfit to govern. The meat of this parliament is contained in eight Brexit bills, covering everything from customs, trade, immigration and agriculture to fisheries and nuclear safety. The “great repeal bill” has lost its “great”. The genuinely great question is whether any contentious Brexit legislation can ever pass through this parliament and these Conservative MPs. This is the impasse parliament.

Whatever you think about Corbyn, the Tories are simply unfit to govern.
