"A pessimist is a man who thinks that all women are bad, an optimist is one that hopes they are".

You can't beat Mark Twain for a good quote, can you Micky?

Our Christmas lunch this year will be of the Brexit flavour, absolutely no b****y Brussels.

OK I'll get my coat. 😉

Yes merry christmas everybody 😋

An optimist is someone who goes after Moby Dick in a rowing boat and takes the tartar sauce with him.

Can pessimists look forward to having a merry Christmas or would that be deemed optimistic? ;)

Whatever, have a good one!

This article was written back in June so does this imply that Junker's days are numbered?

Juncker President of the EU

Trump. President of the USA

Putin   President of Russia

The world looks set for integration and good moral societies then.

Well Hugh, Corbyn & co are trouble mongering in respect of the ASLEF train doors fiasco, let's wait and see what party runs the country, I can still envisage Boris joining your list of world leaders. 😲

Sometimes your illiteracy comes up with something quite good. Unreadable in the main but good.

Of course, this is only one idiot standing up and being laughed at with an obvious lie.  Bit like obvious lies of saying 90% of immigrants to UK are from the EU.

It was a Labour MP Ben Bradshaw who made this allegation in the Commons. Mr Bradshaw also claimed that the huge flows of migrants into Europe had been deliberately encouraged by Russia to destabilise the EU. He said and I quote "We don’t have the evidence for that yet. But I think it’s highly probable."

It is very convenient for an MP to make an allegation under parliamentary privilege and not run the risk of being sued.

Unless and until Bradshaw produces some proof to back up his claim the public should treat such statement with the contempt they deserve. Newspapers and the internet are stuffed full of such conspiracy theories and sadly some people believe them.

Fair enough, if  Corbyn and the ASLEF train doors fiasco is relevant to BREXIT and Spain.

potblack, you omitted the world leadership issues along with the possibility of Boris as Tory leader, of course none of it is relevant to Spain, they exist in total isolation from the rest of the world. 🤔

I bow to your superior wisdom that the train strike is relevant and of utmost importance to BREXIT and Spain. Please accept my apologises.

Quite obvious really, the Cameron government never thought for one moment they would lose, when they did all hell broke loose like 'Now what do we do'.

For such a major event like this is it any wonder it would take more then 6 odd months to get everything in place, all will become clear as soon as Mrs May feels the time is right to let us know, meanwhile have faith in the fact that we are leaving the Mafia run organisation.

A GREAT CYNICAL STRATEGY?

A memo by consultants Deloitte cast Britain's leadership in a chaotic light. The leaked document suggested May was trying to control major Brexit questions, senior ministers were divided and the civil service was in turmoil. The government said the memo was wrong.

Foreign diplomats say there is no unified British position on Brexit but rather a host of different utterances, both public and private, from various government ministers.

"I simply do not know what the Brits want: they seem‎ to want access to the single market and limits to immigration," a senior diplomat from an EU member said on condition of anonymity. "Beyond that, I am unsure. It is all unclear. Perhaps it is a great cynical strategy to be unclear but I am not convinced."
