STATES MEDDLE IN BRITISH POLITICS:
March 22, 2018IDENTITY:
January 1, 2018GREAT! to see that the ‘old’ U.K. passport is making a comeback. But because of modern technology (fitting in machines etc) it can’t be exactly like it was. But for those who yearn for the real McCoy, make a wallet and put your new pseudo ‘old’ passport in it! This wallet is made from cardboard taken from a street map and the new passport slips inside. A piece of plastic is stapled to the inside back to keep it in place. The image is copied from the Net and pasted on the front – voila! Identity back!
PLEASE SIR CAN I GO TO THE TOILET?
December 16, 2017How demeaning to see Britain grovelling to the E.U. mandarins to come to a trade deal. Apparently our homework is now good enough and we can now go out to play. I know that the “divorce” is complicated and people’s wealth and livelihoods are at stake but is it worth losing our dignity. No one really knows if we would be better or worse off without a deal. In the short term I suspect that there would be job losses and standards of living would fall but we would have recovered from that and retained our self respect.

Now we could get caned!
THE TRANSITION PERIOD:
The E.U. proposes to sanction the U.K. if it breaks the rules of the transition agreement. This period is intended to smooth the transition from our current trading arrangements with the E.U. and those which we want to sign with other countries. However if these new conditions prevent the U.K. from preparing for this there doesn’t seem to be much point in it; we might as well reconsider the trade deal and leave next year. A lot of countries in the E.U. have now become disenchanted with the whole project and do not want to lose any more sovereignty and some are courting a similar exit. It may be better for the E.U. to re-think the whole idea and consider something similar to the original “common market” model (Treaty of Rome 1957).
THE SPIRIT OF BREXIT
October 3, 2017“I mean this is Magna Carta, it’s the Burgesses coming at Parliament, it’s the great Reform Bill, it’s the bill of rights, it’s so many… It’s Waterloo, it’s Agincourt, it’s Crecy, We win all these things.”
BLOOMBERG GETS A SLAPPING DOWN:
He has no idea “what it is like to watch one’s country surrendering its laws, money and borders by stealth to a remote and unaccountable bureaucracy”.
THE EUROPEAN UNION:

IS THE E.U. DYING?

BREXIT: BEST PLAN.
Why don’t we stop grovelling to the E.U. and just walk away? If we don’t like what happens a few years down the line we can always rejoin under article 49. They would most likely welcome us back with open arms. And maybe by that time they would have mended their ways and made it more democratic.
A PROUD AND POWERFUL NATION IS HUMBLED:

“Absolutely spot on. I voted to leave, not to have a withdrawal deal about anything.”

THE WILL OF THE PEOPLE:
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-46885828
REFERENDA AD INFINITUM:
The result of a national referendum should be legally binding and irrevocable otherwise the process becomes a mockery. The exception to this would be if the public were mis-informed which could be determined in a court of law.
ARTICLE 50:
“If negotiations do not result in a ratified agreement, the seceding country leaves without an agreement, …”

SECOND REJECTION:
Mrs May said “… it is not within the government’s power to rule out no deal.”
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-46901217
NO DEAL NO FEAR:
“In any negotiation, there is no strategy worse than giving the impression that you are desperate for a deal at all costs.”

THIRD BREXIT VOTE REJECTED:
DON’T THROW THE BABY OUT WITH THE BATH WATER:
INSINCERITY:
July 8, 2017The BBC has come under increasing criticism over its Brexit coverage.
A spokeswoman denies the criticism by saying, “The BBC takes impartiality incredibly seriously and we are covering Brexit developments in depth by examining all the perspectives and arguments. We have a wide range of voices on air and will continue to do so.”
“incredibly” – Why not simply say “The BBC takes impartiality seriously or very seriously “? This over-used word often suggests insincerity. Is the use of this word a superlative or a “Freudian slip”? The word “incredible” means unbelievable! The BBC should get its act together and play fair.

RAPING THE PAST:
An article in some U.K. newspapers feature black and white images from world war one which have been artificially coloured.
The SUN says, “TRENCHES IN COLOUR Haunting new colourised World War 1 pics shine a new light on the horrors of war in the trenches”
The DAILY EXPRESS says, “PICTURES OF WW1 ARE PAINSTAKINGLY COLOURED TO BRING HORROR TO LIFE FOR A NEW GENERATION”
The DAILY MIRROR says, “Breathtaking photos from the end of World War One brought to life in colour for the first time”
“As Britain remembers those who lost their lives in the conflict, pictures from the end of the conflict have been painstakingly brought into the 21st Century”
The creator of the images says, “As they pass from living memory to just remember them as people and not just images in a book or old photographs in a museum is so important and colourisation brings these people into the modern day.”

There’s nothing colourful about dying in a trench for your country. This trivialises the sacrifices our soldiers made for our freedoms. It’s just a cynical exercise to make money.

FANTASY OR REALITY?
June 30, 2017If these are the opportunities that await us then we must boldly take them.
NICE ONE BORIS!
May 16, 2017Britain shouldn’t be forced into conditional and protracted negotiations over different aspects of Brexit.
Each topic should be discussed independently on its own merit.
