that's ok, - we'll drop him in france from a lysander with a silly hat and a polis uniform

The Lysander parts are now made in Germany and stuck in customs. Meanwhile the Thistle Hotel Heathrow has spontaneously combusted in disgust and scoots escaped.

Maybe Scoots won't be allowed back in the plane to Germany. That would serve you right.

Probably the first sensible thing the EU have ever done...



Not quite. She had no competition, yet still only scraped through the vote of MEPs. Mrs May may have nominated her (I hope to God she didn't, because this mad loon looks like she'll make Juncker seem totally reasonable, but that's a discussion for another day).

Only scraped through = elected. And can still be rejected (democratically) when the Commission is determined.

HTH, BIDI. it seems like you have a pathological desire not to understand the process.

Oh, they’ve planned for it all right - that’s why you can’t buy visas, it’s a deliberate policy to keep you out ;-)

My Presidents all happen to be elected. The EU one was elected by the U.K. Prime Minister as a member of the Council on our behalf.

The EU haven't planned for no-deal. There's no way to buy our visas. So while you slag off our (elected) PM, remember your (un-elected) President isn't doing much better.

Edit: and approved by MEPs, also on our behalf....

If you’re flying to the EU, make sure you’ve got your visa. FoM ends for Brits on 31st October.

I'm guessing I'll be ok on the way there as I'm off to Lanzarote and will arrive on the 31st so ok- I doubt the canarian infrastructure can deport all the Brits there!

So the issue is getting home a week later!

Book a one way trip, get the return journey free!

I'm flying on holiday on the 31st October - returning a week later.

Bad planning me thinks but not changeable now.

I'm guessing that to ensure you get minimum access to a mature market your USP will be that you will only accept bit coin payments?

I suspect that the more entrepreneurial types on this side of the water will make it work, despite the best efforts of politicians of all stripes.
