You are mistaken. Parliament passed a bill in to law , going through all the readings, 1st, 2nd house of lords (all in 24 hours) that made it UK law that TM, as PM, had to ask the EU for an extension.

You do not think TM took it 'to the wire' and still failed to get 'concessions' ? We are past the 'wire' already as far as I can see. The wire was 29th March 2019. We took it to that wire and then asked for more time when concessions where not forth coming.[
Hi Erol,

I have no idea how these quotes are credited to me. Please check, delete and re-post.

MR,
You must have deleted one of the quotes/names on the top line by mistake and when you submitted your post, it changed all the quotes and names automatically. Once your “edit” time has passed, you yourself cannot change it, but the moderator can.

Spot on Kicks, what does one do when there are too many quotes then? I personally think it's nonsense to have such a restriction and wish the administrator would go back to no limit o quotes.

Agree 100%

This is the only forum I know that complains about the number of quotes, the number of emoticons and if you reply too quickly after a previous post... :?

So how much does the EU cost us each year? According to this source the 1% of GDP it costs us is far outweighed by the benefits of membership.If the pie chart is remotely accurate then the whinging Brexiteers simply don't have a case. https://www.richardcorbett.org.uk/eu-me ... a-fortune/

Personally, I think thirteen Billion Pounds a year (and rising) is not an insignificant sum.

Moreover, I'd prefer thirteen Billion Pounds a year to be spent by people I can vote for (or not)...

Fortunately, 17.4 million people in the UK agree with me... :wink:

The bizarre thing about your posts is that you apparently waste your time typing it all in over and over instead of just cutting and pasting - after all it is the same old shyte each and every time! :roll:

Water? Meet the duck's back! :lol: :lol: :lol:

Ahem...cough cough....who is whingeing.

BREXIT was the preferred option in the popular vote. It’s the Remainers that are complaining.

Clearly, people value their identity more than just money and THAT must be respected. There is nothing wrong with this at all.

When Cyprus has lost its, then we have lost everything.

Fuck yeh! They want their country back.

All you care about is money.

Now to an outsider looking in. Who is better and who is right?

The person who sells their soul for money or the “little Englander” who cherishes their patriotism and love for the English Culture and their country?

Mmmm let me think.... :roll:

You are nothing but a subject now. Enjoy your serfdom! :lol:

Yes, you are so right. I forgot about the time and emoticons restriction . Come on admin, sort these issues out please.
(I had to post without quoting Cyprusgrump because I had that fucking too many quotes restriction)

When was the last time you visited England? Which part of the " English culture" impressed you most ? Perhaps the queues awaiting for the Royal baby to arrive? Or could it be, in the words of the Clown, letter boxes appearing every 10 steps? Maybe the daily stabbings or the ever present Traffic wardens? Perhaps the plethora of cameras waiting to catch motorists with their front tyre touching tge white line? Mate, there is NO longer " English culture" there is third world culture.
16.1 million voted remain, do they not count? The narrow minded litlle Englanders who are unable to see further than their noses voted leave in order to ....preserve the English culture !!!! There is not one valid economic reason why we should come out of the EU. Just look at Stetling!!! Surely it's fall tells you something .
