EU blackmailing the UK

[houseinthesnow]

So it comes to pass. The EU have decided unless we agree to their unreasonable demands they will halt all travel, including air and road travel whilst still fishing in our waters apparently!

It is nothing short of piracy.

The true nature of the EU has been exposed for some time, hence our departure - but now no one can be any doubt just to the levels they will sink to.
The EU have no interest in trade relations, nor cooperation, they only seek control and power. The trading relations is and was always, window dressing to create a superstate - and it seems they are now not afraid to inflict as much damage as possible to stop a member leaving.
Even the most passionate remainer will now see how deeply disturbing this behaviour actually is.

One could argue it is an act of war in fact.

It should be treated as such.

I will happily eat beans to the end of my days than be blackmailed by the EU. We all knew it would get nasty at the end, but who they knew they were capable of this. I suppose we can't be that surprised given the past. The gloves are off now for sure - and that goes both ways we should remind them.

Hard hats on.

Just keep looking at your blue passport and be proud to be British..... I'm sure your comments will go over better at the DM.

Enjoy your beans.

Bollocks to everything you have said OP. Every single word.

Or - we chose to leave. The EU is totally within their rights to say "fuck off, go then". Why should we have our cake and eat it?

I'm a staunch remainer and I don't want to leave. But I think now we have, we shouldn't be permitted to make demands of the EU and try and keep the best bits.

I can't work out if the OP is a wannabe newspaper columnist, or someone from a lobby group trying to impersonate a real person in order to gauge public opinion. Either way, this does not read like a genuine post from a genuine poster.

Actually, thinking again - Claig, is that you?

Yeah, you don’t really understand what’s happening do you?

As we will all be eating the proverbial beans, I hope the many farts travel in the general direction of those who voted for and continue to welcome Brexit

I feel like I’ve stumbled into the letters page of the Telegraph.

Enjoy your beans, OP- sounds like you need to release some hot air anyway.

An act of war, really? You are either deluded or a troll. Remember at least 50% of the country didn’t want this, and it is likely much higher now. If you are genuine, why the hell are you not very angry that you voted for a ‘better deal than what we had’ according to vote leave but what they’ve actually delivered is fresh food and medicine shortages.

Here Op, have a to go with your beans.

A lot of ppl
Who voted leave would vote remain this is worry what is happening don't think ppl understood how bad it would be

What did you fucking expect?

What a pile of shit.

What's disturbing is our government willingly and knowingly doing something that will make the vast majority of its citizen's lives so very much worse.

Really fanciful account there if the truth OP. Maybe you should try your hand at fiction.

If you decide you no longer want to be my guest and you want to leave am I supposed to send you off with a packed lunch?

Nothing the EU has asked for is unreasonable. Just not in British interests. But why would anyone other than the Brits care about your interests? You decided to leave because you thought it would be better, well it won't. And all the other people on the UK and our kids will suffer the consequences.

What are you on?

People who vote for wolf in sheep's clothing, get eaten by wolf in sheep's clothing - why is this such a surprise to you? But yeah, "taking back control" and all that.

They are playing hard ball as they don't want other nations to start getting ideas about leaving the EU. Your right OP, it is about power.

The UK chose to leave the EU, you may not agree with it but it's pretty shitty to be on the EU side when this decision is going to effect us all and the EU is acting undignified.

Unbelievable the responses on here. Btw I voted for remain before you all jump on me. I feel like a lot of people in this country want us all to suffer as punishment.

You voted for this? Then get over it.

OP, gloves are off indeed! I tell you what, why don’t you round up some of your pals (is that lovely Nigel free?) and I’ll see whose about as well -I’m sure Tiggsy and Muffy are at a loose end this morning - and we’ll meet by the coast. I’m sure Ruggers or Tuffers has a spare boat they can lend us. We’ll all hop on, sail to the Frenchie coast and then we’ll show those blasted EU whallahs they can’t trifle with us. We’ll bring our pans and bang them a bit with spoons. If that doesn’t result in a trade deal by teatime then call me a giblet in a Turkey!

OP you are getting a lot of abuse on here but no substance or willingness to debate.
You will simply have a thread full of potty-mouthed accusations of trolling.
Interestingly tho half of people who voted agree with you but will not post here because of the bullying of those who are unable to have a conversation and only up to an incoherent rant.

Undignified?? Did you see the pictures of Johnson and his mate at the meeting the other night? The epitome of undignified, standing there like a sack of shit grinning.

Why on earth is it unreasonable for the EU to want to protect their single market? 'We' (some of us, fewer than on 2016) want to leave, so we'll have to face the consequences, not the EU, who are happy as they are.
