emmie

aelmpvw

referring to them as enemies amidst brexit talks wouldn't be helpful

It's a courtesy, like referring to 'the honourable gentleman on the other side' in the Commons, and 'my learned friend's in court, it's civility and it oils the wheels.

i had the same with one poster who was boris bashing, no link, i was told to basically bog off

emmie

i was referring to fact he could hardly say othewise. at least not at the moment.

The French shut the burger one way for a couple of days. It’s now open again.
In my opinion an overreaction but we’d probably have done the same, as we reacted to the Danish mink thing

ichkeria

The border lol

emmie

, someone suggested that it was done out of spite. I have no idea, maybe they are open now, but its caused a lot of problems

ichkeria

It would be a curious act of spite given it caused them no end of grief as well

emmie

it was an overreaction - would we have done the same, no idea, they are now calling us once again the sick man of Europe.
