    Totally agree. Only met Paul for 5 mins a few years back and seemed a good bloke to have a chat with.
    I’ve had the hump with a few on here (as they probably have with me) but I’d still be happy to have a beer with them in real life.

    interesting comments from Nigel Farage who was in Brussels next to Junker/Barnier. He gave a speech and he reckons that we are heading for a no deal Brexit with a 2-10 year free trade deal. Apparently he said for once they were somber after he spoke with no digs or nodding heads. he said they looked scared. He also got claps which is not the norm.
    well done Nigel. :emoticon-0148-yes:

    WTO? Read only that they are very complex and to negotiate tariff free WTO would take 7 years or more, and damage the UK economy severely for 30 years. To go that way sounds totally crazy.

    I did say I would like to be proved wrong in my assumption, on my post, so not all is lost as they say.

    That if you run a poll without remain as an option no one can pick it? What exactly is your analysis of this slightly odd poll?

    The German government on Wednesday nearly halved its 2019 economic growth forecast from 1.8% to 1%, citing #Brexit as the first among key reasons for the slowdown. The shock of no-deal Brexit is widely expected to cause a recession here and elsewhere.

    Barclays move €190 billion of assets from London to Dublin, because ‘we can’t put this off any longer’, bringing the total bleed of assets from UK financial services overseas (not just to the EU) to close to £1,000 billion to date. Probably New York, Hong Kong and Singapore will be the biggest beneficiaries.

    I have no idea if this will make any difference to ordinary people or anybody’s thinking.

    Funnily I heard something different on the radio tonight regarding Barclays and this movement of money.

    Will it hell! Brexit will be great for this country, even it's most ardent supporter stated it could take up to half a century to see any benefits!! There are some seriously deluded people out there whom are easily swayed by propaganda. Food prices will rise with a no deal and/or supply will be harder to get. Expect more debt, poverty and Food banks. GREAT BRITAIN
