"If people put a particular type of integrationist theology ahead of the interests of the people of Northern Ireland they are not serving the cause of peace and progress in Northern Ireland, and that is my principal and overriding concern." No, you snivelling incompetent; your principal and only concern is how to get the keys to No. 10. "Pandora's Box has been opened and that is concerning. Who knows what Trojan horses will come out." Let's hope one of your former teachers emerges and thrashes you mercilessly for this abomination. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s now clear that the Tory government had no idea of the impact of the Brexit deal. Untangling decades of trade and replacing it was going to be a Herculean task and Johnson and Co. were advised of that but took no notice. All the bluff and bluster of an “oven ready deal” together with overly hasty ‘negotiations’ in December had all the hallmarks of a disaster in the making. I reckon Express readers interpretation of ‘renegotiation’ is the U.K. getting more concessions without offering anything in return. That ain’t going to happen. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The thing about many/most of these negative effects is than they will not be reversed regardless of future changes to our relationship with the EU. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is until you realise how much revenue that sector generates compared to, say, the fishing industry (which has also been screwed over despite the false promises). The only reason this is not dominating the news and at the front of people’s mind is the pandemic, but as that, hopefully, abates there will be a realisation that Johnson’s ‘oven ready’ deal is an unmitigated disaster. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh. I understand fully the huge impact on an already shredded economy. The only compensation for the likes of us workers is that the rich robbing b*****ds lose millions. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
