    Yep that’s the struggle brilliant to watch the people take on the authorities. Hope it happens in the U.K. soon as well

    It's on fire every week Goldie. Did you know that Le Pen is only 2 points behind the 'popular' Macron? Says it all really.

    Bloody hell these French love a riot... Shame they didn't put up this much of a fight in 1939 as it would have saved my late uncle swimming home. Is the bloke at the bottom the fella that runs Weatherspoon's? :emoticon-0100-smile

    Farage may even burn his old Barbour outside Downing Street. It's Anarchy UK!

    Those Gilet Jaunes sure get points for persistence.

    Don't diss our Nigel. There's an awful lot of pubs on the way to which he will drive to in time for a 10 minute walk into to the town and a photoshoot, pint in hand - 5 minute walk with his buddies out of town and then back in his car planning his next stopover. Do you think he relies on the Good Pub guide or Trip Advisor? He must have picked up something from Johnson who always managed to jog into view round a corner for a soundbite but never seemed to have broken into a sweat . I gather he has now been warned by medics about his fitness. Still I suppose it doesn't stop some blue knickered Conservative ladies swooning at the mere mention of his name.

    I got bored after your first sentence. You should remember that the average concentration span on here is 1.5 lines at most. Otherwise you get complaints!

    I suspect after the abortion in Parliament last week, his appeal may be extending beyond the blue knickers wearers

    A touch of realism at last. The opponents including Tories who have not yet left the party were always going to unite to prevent a No Deal. What was the point of taking it down to the wire when it was obvious pure Brexit was unachievable? I imagine it was hope that the longer it got to 'chucking out time' Europe would cave in. As for the second highlighted point is that a Brexiteer's version of Project Fear? I know that redundancies in Europe are seen as less important here than redudnancies in the UK but do you say there will be none here at all?

    You've got the caving in point. It's the equivalent of a High Court action settling at the door of the court. Many do.

    The figures came from sources on the Continent. There would have been some disruption in the UK, but remember, on the whole, we are the customer. We had a trade deficit with the EU of £61 billion in 2017

    If you know your France you should know that the Parisian is still frowned upon . They are hated in the south and always will be. The difference is they still more united than us
