So, what are your plans for L-Day?

Party or Pining?

🤗 or 😭?

@Ta1kinPeace

Reckon we'll get an answer to these apparently gratuitous assertions?

So, what are your plans for L-Day?

‘Marcin was crying, begging for help’: crisis of EU migrants detained in the UK

The death of a Pole was one of three suicides in detention centres in a month, and relatives claim the Home Office is covering up cell deaths

Collating evidence?

If you google 'deaths in detention centres' there seems to be no official stats since the vote, but at least 12 deaths this year come up as newspaper stories.

I really, really want a Brexiter to answer.
REmainers waffle on all the time
but I want to hear what a Brexiter thinks

It cannot be that hard - they have had 18 months since the result to clarify their views

Which three things in their day to day life will get better after leaving the EU?

@Ta1kinPeace

To be fair @themueslicamel said she was worried about a superstate being created. So I don't think she can answer as the concern is too general

I have asked the same question as you. Three laws you don't like today imposed by the EU and three things that will be better. No answers.

On the first the reason is ALL laws are passed by Parliament. Some laws are enacted based on EU Directives which we jointly develop and which we can veto.

On the second most Brexiters don't know which laws make them unhappy. They seem to respond to the sound bites of regaining control. The irony is we will lose control by leaving - laws will indeed be IMPOSED on the UK in exchange for market access - but go try to explain that to someone who cups his ears and sings the national anthem.

Some laws are enacted based on EU Directives which we jointly develop and which we can veto.

Not only this, some come from other bodies such as the WHO or the ICAO and the EU adopts them, and even out of the EU we would probably still chose to adopt them.

You may remember the silly nonsense about a year ago about the woman who wasn't allowed to park for free at Tesco, because she was only buying formula milk? Some drivel was put on the Dept of Health website, to say that the rules were in place because of EU law,
but that the great repeal bill meant that when we leave the EU, laws such as those would be debated and controlled by the UK parliament. (Not that they weren't already!)

I wrote to protest, and got a very sensible answer back saying that the laws were an implementation of WHO recommendations. I wrote again to ask why they hadn't said that in the first place, to which I got no answer. It would only have taken a short statement to say that this was WHO policy and a supermarket's parking charge policy is nothing to do with the DoH. As it stood, they were misleading in what they said, and looked stupid into the bargain.

@Peregrina

Yep.

Not sure if I mentioned on this post or another. The bendy bananas rule does actually exist (not quite the wording but doesn't matter) and stems from the Codex Alimentarium ... from the United Nations.

I loved how Boris then said this was an EU regulation.

Anyway. Still waiting to hear about how the six main EU institutions are going to change to become a dictatorship. I'm actually worried about the US and UK path to that form of government at the moment. Not the EU.
