Further more (or is that fuhrer more?) are these the same MEPs who are insisting that Britain remains shackled and held below deck on the sinking clown boat? We hold all the aces Boris just needs to have the guts to play the tricks, one by one, until game over. They are broke, and though desperate for trade with the flourishing UK, are like spiteful thwarted...

They won't find the civil servants of the other countries as compliant and willing to sacrifice it's populace, as they found our snivelling toads, when it come to providing funds for the corrupt set up. 27 "other members" all looking for a way out now that they have to pay. The edifice would have collapsed years ago if we had not been funding the damned ponzi scheme.

Perhaps they should consider that when the mouthpieces try to stall at the negotiation table again during trade talks.

yep bang on togs, let's hope Bojo can see their weaknesses and exploit them.
She probably did see it but prefer to ignore it as it doesn't suit her plans. Gulliver will probably be the same. Hopefully wherever it is he lives as he seems to scared to tell anyone where it is will be one of the countries where they have to pay more to stay in. I only say this because he seems to wish the worse on everyone here.
Gulliver made no secret of where he lives. He said on earlier posts years ago that he lives in Spain.
13.17, Oh Dear .
"Presidents, prime ministers and chancellors across Europe will pack their bags later this week in preparation for a long weekend in Brussels."

These are not 'MEPS' , those attending are Council of the European Union (Council of Ministers), the European Commission, The European Council and possibly other 'coverts' -- so ZERO 'democratic accountability and possibly ZERO scrutiny and phoney veneer of Legitimacy by the allegedly democratic European Parliament.

Hopefully they reconsider their past misdeeds and (in)actions and realise the mess they have deliberately evolved into.

And the mysterious “four shirter” alluded to in the Link should be

"Should it follow the path of an ever closer union or United States of Europe; of a two-tier or more differentiated union; continue to muddle through with incremental changes on a path of “covert integration”; or engage on a path of disintegration or dissolution?"

from an interesting and refreshingly frank article prepared by one of their own think-tanks, which disturbingly mentions 'covert' 'banks' and all sorts of dodgy financial monsters either pre-existing or ready? to be evolved.

Hopefully [ ha-ha, NO chance!! ] total structural reform or dissolution will be the outcome.

Serves them right.

Apc2604, gulliver may have mentioned in the very distant past where he lived but every time in the past few years when asked he has been evasive about it. If he is in Spain then us leaving will almost certainly affect him. Probably why he has been so anti Brexit. He says he has no vote in any of our elections, doesn't seem to like the place yet has so many bad things to say about it. On the other hand he says he is thinking of coming here this year on another thread.
Ta once again TTT.
Meanwhile, although not reported at all on your "national" broadcaster" get this.....
//The government has said that 2019 was a “record-breaking” year for British exports, with a 13.6 per cent increase in exports to non-EU countries on the year before while the trade deficit with the European Union has widened.
The Department for International Trade has said that the UK has experienced 45 consecutive months of annual export growth on a rolling annual basis.
DIT referenced figures released by the Office for National Statistics on Tuesday, which revealed that trade in export in goods had increased by 6.4 per cent to £372 billion, while the export of services also rose by 3.3 per cent to £317 billion. In total, British companies exported £689 billion worth of goods and services around the world, an increase of five per cent on 2018.

The ONS noted that 2019 on the year before, the trade in goods deficit narrowed with non-EU countries, but widened with EU member-states, with the trade in goods deficit widening with EU countries by £1 billion to £94.5 billion.
“Exports to non-EU countries increased by £24.1 billion in 2019 but were partly offset by a £13.3 billion increase in imports. Imports from EU countries decreased by £0.6 billion in 2019, while exports also decreased by a larger £1.6 billion.”//
