Barnier said today that there were parts of May's paper that he didn't understand. <yikes>
He also said the deal must benefit the EU and that all 27 members are not disadvatage. <doh><laugh> A bit late to worry about them now mate!

Maybe I read it wrong Stan but I thought the whole point the Irish PM was making was all about airspace and not allowing British planes to use Irish airspace ?

I didn’t see what he said, sounds like a bit of ****wittery to me, Ireland stands to suffer most in all this if he’s not careful.

Time for the EU to take a step back and recognise that our government is in a right mess, it needs help not threats.

Barnier said basically that today, although they won't care about us as they will just take advantage. It wasn't long ago they were saying use Paris or Frankfurt for financial services?
For me we need to get rid of May and bring in a fresh face with a plan.

Exactly right mate.
The bloke is a complete tool.
We even have an agreement for the RAF to protect Irish planes.
He really is a very silly bloke..

Slightly off topic but I remember you saying a short while ago that your kids didn't like Trump because he shoots elephants and wondering where they got that idea from.

I did read yesterday that Trump's son, Donald Trump Jr does travel to Africa to go hunting so that might explain it. Well sort of.

As you were folks...

Does make me laugh when they mention the '27' when 22 of them are tinpot.

Looks like the Chequers Agreement is dead in the water. If May gives the ground insisted upon by Barnier, she'll shed Brexit ministers. Raab will only stay the course if he has power to organise the move to WTO

I read about the planes also......
Bit silly as on my understanding it’s not an EU agreement to use airspace ( though I might be wrong) and he can’t just ‘ban’ our planes. adding to that the fact that the vast majority or planes from Ireland use our airspace it all seems rather bizarre

Hope he likes going on holiday to Lanzarotte because he's going to have trouble flying anywhere else.

For the last two years the UK has been caricatured as being divided, loose canons making idiotic soundbites and generally badly organised. The EU has widely been lauded as being well prepared and completely unified.

I think Mr Varadkar might be going a tad off message don't you?!
