mm, much bigger scale thinking ?? Like when they tried to ban the sale of straight bananas ??
I’ll give you the benefit of assuming that you know the difference between liking an idea and not necessarily the practice of that idea, and that you know that banana reference is bollocks, just another Euromyth made up by people like Boris Johnson.
“Bananas have always been classified by quality and size for international trade. Because the standards, set by individual governments and the industry, were confusing, the European Commission was asked to draw up new rules.
Commission regulation 2257/94 decreed that bananas in general should be “free from malformation or abnormal curvature”. Those sold as “extra class” must be perfect, “class 1” can have “slight defects of shape” and “class 2” can have full-scale “defects of shape.”
Nothing is banned under the regulation, which sets grading rules requested by industry to make sure importers – including UK wholesalers and supermarkets – know exactly what they will be getting when they order a box of bananas.”
We had our own regulations before the EU ones, which save time and money for importers and exporters/ re-exporters.
seems to me to show that EU countries are free to make their own decisions re migrants, what’s your point?
Thing is though, this argument put forward by remainers that brexiters wanted more sovereignty, so we should accept parliament making the final decision simply doesn't wash.
The same sovereign government promised the electorate that the referendum result would be carried out. The same sovereign houses of parliament voted overwhelmingly to implement the result and both main parties fought an election promising to do the same.
I have no problem with a sovereign government making the final decision, which should either be May's deal, another deal or no deal. Remaining can't be an option as that ship has sailed.
Unfortunately, these sovereign representatives of our are lying, scheming, betraying scum bags who have been plotting, along with the remainer civil servants to stop brexit from ever happening.
I agree that referendums aren't ideal, but we had it and the people chose.
Yes, it was difficult to express myself clearly without it seeming like a dig at Brexiters, which wasn’t my intention but I can see how it can be interpreted like that. I do genuinely think we need to develop a shared or at least broader understanding of what sovereignty means in the UK context and what our expectations of our elected representatives are, regardless of Brexit. I am far from clear myself.
They are called ” the enemy within”.
To save time and add clarity could you give us a list of who you regard to be the ‘enemy within’. Groups/organisations rather than individual names will be fine, I should be able to tell if I am on the list from those.
