Brexit slowly becoming a Farce.

She was trying to sound all 'statesman' like and tough.

She failed badly. It just sounded like a piece of desperate spin just so could cling on to her job. Horrendous person.

Utterly deluded. It's up to them to make a counter proposal? No it isn't, not if they are under no pressure to do so - and let's be clear, we have little leverage over the EU here. 

 

Indeed.  She's talking as if this should be some kind of an amicable divorce settlement.

The EU is a club of 27 members that the UK now wishes to resign from - but yet wishes to retain all the benefits it currently enjoys.

Precisely. The impact of a no deal to the EU is spread around 27 nations and mitigated by the fact that they all still have everything they offer by being part of the bloc.

They owe us the square root of f**k all. We instigated the vote, we decided to leave. They are duty bound to do nothing except protect the interests of the EU.

Perhaps instead of whining, the turkeys who voted for Xmas should open their eyes and see that the level of hardballing we see from the EU currently is one of the compelling reasons why we should have stayed.

All the bluster about going it alone and how useless the EU are should be dispelled in the minds of even the staunchest Brexity type, upon viewing the absolute ragdolling we are taking on the world stage, with seemingly little effort required.

Literally the only reason remaining to drive us off the cliff without another vote, or to repeat the vote result, is pig headedness at the expense of everything else.

By her standards that was fairly impressive in terms of delivery.

Nice one Macron!

Christ her standards must be low for that to be fairly impressive. She came across like a huffy teenager sulking. History is going to be very unkind to May, quite rightly, as she's a complete joke.

 

We. Stand. Ready. :lol: oooooo shiteing it.

The EU will be pissing themselves laughing at that statement.

I doubt they are, her stance leading to a "no deal" will harm their economies as well. Its far more likely they are annoyed at her childishness and inability to enter negotiations with a credible opening gambit.

A fraction of the harm it would cause us.

I do not deny it but it does not mean they are pissing with laughter. 

And we do trade with them so any damage to our economy means less purchasing of their exports.

But its a hit they can take to keep the 4 freedoms intact and stop all 27 seeking their own "Chequers".

That’s what I was getting at.

As previously said the damage to the EU is split amongst 27 countries. It’ll soften the blow.
