Bozo still hard at it today, pushing across the line "let's bury our differences and come to an agreement then - all we have to agree is that I'm right and you're wrong..."

Makes me want to head for the toilet... :evil:

As usual, this intervention is all about Boris and nothing about substance. But don't worry! Within the next couple of months he'll be telling us that Brexit is a terrible idea, his Brexit supporting colleagues are losers, and that he always thought we should stay in the EU [gurn, play with hair, mutter].

That's one thing you can rely on with BoJo,he's unreliable for anything other than BoJo.
As for the other contender for the throne Moggie,after seeing his photo in a newspaper I picked up in a coffee show last week.
I drew a little moustache on him.
He had a remarkable resemblance to a certain German who made a bit of a stink in the middle of the last century :shock:

It gets worse the more you watch it,a rambling storyline,weak leading character,poor supporting actors,you can only hope the show ends soon as the ratings are dropping like a stone.........

Boris is in an ideal position and is an ideal person to start the reconciliation between Remainers and Leavers. As a senior Government minister and as the individual strongly pushing the extra £350m a week for the NHS all he has to do is to see the NHS gets their extra £350m a week. He proposed it, he campaigned on it and he is one of the most senior Government ministers so he is the ideal person to get it done.

I think it's actually getting quite pitiful how the rabid Leave MPs are getting worried their wet dream might not have its happy ending and in their fear they are starting more and more to threaten, discredit, argue, etc. anybody who dares even raise the possibility of anything going soft. Soft is a real problem for what they are hoping for.

Any resemblance is probably not purely coincidental.

And still more Bojo-bbledygook:
UK citizens after Brexit should have the freedom to retire to Spain, work overseas, go on “cheapo flights to stag dos”

So - is this the image of the young Brit male-at-large that this idiot wants to put across? Let us form our own conclusions...

Oh yes Pete.quite so.
I have formed my conclusions.

No mention of the rich cultural heritage that he wants to sideline for the personal gain of the few.
Meet the interesting, diverse, cultured and mostly tolerant peoples of Europe but rather go and be drunk and boorish amongst them, is his vision.
Such a sad little man our Foreign Secretary! He's missed the essential point.

His "speech" (more like waffle actually) made me really angry.

It's very much about time we heard about some concrete advantages for everybody that will come out of Brexit? NHS doesn't seem to be gaining much.
Up to now very sadly absent, any concrete list of these advantages.

There is no guarantee that the freedom of movement, work, or residency, in their present forms, will continue. That decision does not rest solely with the UK Govt.
Or cheap flights and travel either come to that.

This awful Govt. really get me down.

In law we never had to sign article 50.

We could just leave, then notify the EU.

We alone would decide what or not to pay...................

UK law is democratic (as much as it can get) EU is not!
