I've heard Australia referred to as racist a lot, but the Australians I've known in person (and on line) never really showed any racist tendencies. (I used to run an F1 website, back when I cared about F2 and almost half the people on the forums were Australian) I wonder if it's a regional thing... Was your daughter in Tasmania?
The vote to leave the European Union in June 2016 leaves the UK on the front line of some of the biggest political issues of our time, especially in terms of UK foreign policy. Following the 2016 EU Referendum, Chatham House continues to provide an independent platform for debate and analysis around issues raised by the vote and the international implications of Brexit. Issues covered include the future of UK foreign policy, implications of a no-deal Brexit, the backlash to globalization, inequality, the growing divide between cities and rural areas, identity, and the future of the nation-state. https://www.chathamhouse.org/resear...Uv52tBLJP0_J_kStm0LmKoeC6pyc6jBoC-GkQAvD_BwE#
'The UK no longer feels like home’: the British Europhiles racing for EU passports please log in to view this image
Germany boosts hopes of Brexit deal renegotiation please log in to view this image Germany has boosted hopes in Downing Street that a controversial part of the Brexit deal will be able to be changed. Chancellor Angela Merkel revealed she is ready to listen to proposals to solve the Irish backstop "riddle". That is the insurance policy to prevent a physical border between Northern Ireland and the Republic if a trade deal cannot be struck in time.
If you needed any barometer of what the bureaucrats that the UK brexiteers have consistently insulted for all this time are felling... ahem.... "don't let the door hit you on the way out" comes to mind.
At this point we seem to be down to a hope that the German manufacturers are so worried about their industry that they will make merkel crawl to May.

Translation: Juncker: "Mrs May you'vent a clue what to do have you?" may: "no" Juncker: "you can **** right off asking for changes to agreement" May: "yeah i know" Juncker: "I suppose you want another letter" May: "yeah so i can say peace in our time mate ta." What are we doing here.
as for this But the move was met with dismay by Labour members of the People's Vote campaign for another EU referendum, who accused Mr Corbyn of going back on his commitment, made at the party's conference, to back a public vote if he can't force a general election. Labour MP Chris Leslie tweeted: "Seriously? Offering to help Tory Govt enable Brexit? It's not just Labour's conference policy in the bin. "When the jobs go & revenues for services dry up as a result - Labour's leadership will have ZERO right to complain: they share responsibility." Mr Lidington said he and Brexit Secretary Steve Barclay would be willing to discuss Labour's proposals with Sir Keir and other frontbenchers. But he said Labour's call to have a say in trade deals while being in a customs union with the EU was "wishful thinking", because Brussels had ruled it out. This leslie fellow... what a ****ing turd... corbyn has sent may some bullshit letter to act as an excuse for not leading or coming up with some damned way of just getting the withdrawal agreement as voted for through... so this clown lesli jumps up and down that the labour party no longer has an excuse to whine at tories after? Nothing about leading the country of fixing the inevitable issues... just wants to be able to wash hands and blame tories.
The European Parliament’s Brexit chief has welcomed Jeremy Corbyn’s new EU exit plan and endorsed calls for a cross-party conensus in Westminster to prevent a no-deal. Theresa May travelled to Brussels on Thursday for meetings with representatives from the European Commission, European Council and European Parliament after her MPs told her they could not support the deal she had struck unless a controversial “backstop” cause was removed. Though the European Commission and UK government agreed to “find a way through” and restart meetings, all the EU chiefs Ms May spoke to were emphatic that the withdrawal agreement – and thus the backstop – were not up for negotiation.
So all this whinging about Corbyn not taking part in May's fake talks and not having an alternative solution and yet he's coming up with the most workable solution despite it not even being his job
it's not hard offer what he knows is completely.impossible AND what he doesn't even want. he's talking you might as well still be in territory and he knows the Tories won't agree. cynical. that man is pure evil imo
