Off Topic OLOF's political thread

[TC (Lovely Geezer)]

If you understood what’s gone on in the last few days you would be saying ****ing hell 2020 and glory you were right all along.

You 2 chumps have been wrong on all of it so far
Do you think £50bn to get out of the stink that is the EU will be worth it? I certainly do.
£50bn is how much the UK has spent on EU bailouts
£80bn is what we were forced to pay by the European Court of Justice in tax rebates to multinationals.
EU rules mean we are paying £7billion in welfare payments to EU citizens living in the UK every year.
In 2013 the UK was forced to hand over an extra £1.2 billion after the EU bust its budget.
In 2014 the UK was forced to hand over an extra £1.7billion after the EU bust its budget.
In 2015 the UK was forced to hand over an extra £2.2 billion after the EU bust its budget
Do you see a pattern emerging here?
£32billion given to the European Investment Bank and £1billion to the European Central Bank.

Wake up Glory - your bathtub is sinking

Nigel Farage was closest to the truth all along. Why oh why isn't that man in charge of the negotiations.

Because he doesn’t do real jobs

And we’d miss seeing Davis make a right cods of it

20, you are right he doesn't do a real job, he is a MEP on £15000 a year more than a MP and costing us 3 times as much a year than a MP does. Oh to be on the EU gravy train.

That and because he tried to get elected 7 times to Westminster and didn't manage it once.

So why are you bothered if the EU lie to you then?

Who said I'm bothered ? I make my own mind up,Cameron,the EU and David Davis don't tell me what to do.

Damn that voting system where the majority vote counts

recent studies show that every 1 out of 3 Remoaners are just as dumb as the other 2

They tried to ridicule Trump, but Trump has last laugh.

So why is May trying to do a deal so if it’s that simple

That's the 64,000 quid question Eire, she's a remainer, but the DUP (all hail the DUP) scuppered her deal, and her Tory Brexit MP's seem to have laid down the law to her.

I don't think she'll be PM much longer...

Is there someone better waiting in the wings to replace her though..? Seem a pretty clueless bunch to me

I think the replacement is called Corbyn

He’ll be a disaster too

 

[2020VisionofLeeds]

Tories need to skip generation and pray there’s some talent further down the chain. None of the well known big hitters (ha ha) are any good

In Westminster elections the majority vote rarely counts.

And the remain MPs have responded just helping to remind her that that there’s no majority for a hard Brexit.

But for once I agree with your conclusion.

If the first line of that comes true the UK is f***ed if we leave or remain in the EU. May is bad enough but I don't even want to think about Corbyn being in charge.
