    Rice is rice, if it was the Italian stuff we were force fed at school, it's not that flash anyway.

    Might not want to carry on exporting their rice to the UK and continue making a huge profit for their economy and keeping thousands in employment? All because the UK are leaving the EU?

    Yeah make you right Brissy <laugh> <whistle>

    Just saying, Forza. Who knows what the outcome of the talks will be. There doesn't seem to be much happening at present, does there?

    It looks like it could be heading towards a no deal Brexit because the EU are being awkward and the UK appear unorganised.

    How did you come to that conclusion? Why not the other way round? Or maybe both are being awkward, or both unorganised?

    Your anti-UK bias is showing again.

    So you're saying that the UK is organised and the EU is being accommodating? Everything should turn out roses then. :emoticon-0148-yes:

    No, I'm saying it appears neither side is prepared to budge and it's heading for stalemate and a no deal Brexit.

    Yes but you implied it's because the UK is unorganised in its approach to the negotiations. I've seen no evidence of that, and if you're not personally involved it's impossible to know.

    They're both being deliberately awkward imo.

    I think it's called negotiation and the way it looks to me is that the UK doesn't have a good hand. I agree though, I don't know as I'm not involved in the discussions so lets stop any discussion until we have some facts?

    <laugh> You're the one who started the discussion with some random post with no evidence whatsoever, and as soon as someone engages with you and disagrees you want to shut it down.

    Typical Left <doh>

    No, it was you who pointed out that as I wasn't involved in the discussions I didn't know, I agreed with you and so endeth the discussion.

    Stop being so precious, I wasn't implying you personally. It figures that anyone not involved in the negotiations can possibly know which side is 'unorganised' or 'being awkward'

    You just chose to cast the UK in a bad light as per usual, with no evidence to back this up.

    Hence your post stinks of anti-UK bias.

    I think the UK showed their powers of organisation in the three years it took them to actually come to a decision about leaving. Sorry, Forza, I'm not anti UK but by God it's getting bloody hard to be otherwise. "Land of hope and glory"? You'll be singing it on your own soon if you're allowed to!

    Coming from a guy who spent 6 months telling us he was coming over to the UK and going to see his team play, then ended up going shopping or washing the dishes instead, maybe you should just shhhhhhh. <laugh>
