Ever closer to Brexit! 🥂 🍻 🍾

Remainers are welcome, as ever.

But!

If you just want to abuse Brexiteers, then start your own thread.

This is a pub thread, not an interrogate-a-Brexiteer thread

We have more in common etc, even if Brexit divides us.

WineBrewCakeThanks

I'm pleased you're not pleased double

This whole exercise is completey pointless.

bearbehind · 30/04/2018 11:28

Give it up mummmy, the EU are being prudent and pragmatic and calling our bluff.

We have no intention of leaving with no deal.

The latest on FOM, you know, that thing that was the biggest red line of them all, has been watered down to nothing just proving we're going to accept whatever we're given.

mummmy2017 · 30/04/2018 11:37

So maybe we get a new PM anyone who values their job and is remain will duck and run.... So who do you think will get the job...
More in fighting with the Lord's...
How can you not see all this chaos will bring us nearer to no deal....
The MPs vote do something the EU won't accept.... No deal.
We run out of time ...Non deal
Ireland don't like the deal. No deal.
DUP don't like the deal....No deal....

jasjas1973 · 30/04/2018 11:38

I wanted FOM to stop because I find it discriminatory in favour of white Christians. I want to see an even playing field for everyone in the world to be able to come here so I'm not at all keen on the idea you outlined Bear

Are you being serious?

bearbehind · 30/04/2018 11:42

No mummmy, all the scenarios you've listed will lead to us grovelling for whatever is on offer. It won't lead to no deal.

mummmy2017 · 30/04/2018 11:47

If we run out of time which is what I think is very clearly happening...... the your kidding yourself ....... and your deal very much depends on TM as PM..... RM BJ or DD will tell them to do one.

bearbehind · 30/04/2018 11:53

It's you who is kidding yourself mummmy

No one else will put themselves forward to lead Brexit as it's such a poisoned chalice.

It's all very well heckling from the sidelines but BJ and Gove have already ducked out from leading before and DD threatens to resign every 5 minutes.

mummmy2017 · 30/04/2018 12:04

RM will go for it...
He knows it's his one time to get the job.....
AR going was not a good move for remain.

DGRossetti · 30/04/2018 12:08

You won't see JRM anywhere near a position of leadership (assuming anyone would put him there).

Any influence he may have is derived from the fact that he's much more able at sniping from the sidelines than actually doing anything.

I suspect - privately - he's already turned down offers of minor ministerial position.

Doubletrouble99 · 30/04/2018 12:38

Yes I am jasjas.

surferjet · 30/04/2018 13:04

Actually - where have all the remainers gone?
Where’s Londonmum? She was hilarious.

gussyfinknottle · 30/04/2018 13:18

We're all pretty bored of watch the embarrassment of Leavers kidding themselves that it's all brilliant.
You think it's great. I don't. Yawn.

surferjet · 30/04/2018 13:22

Yeah. I think all sides are bored of Brexit now tbh.

jasjas1973 · 30/04/2018 14:02

Yes I am jasjas

Oh dear!
Good luck selling that one to the UK electorate.

bearbehind · 30/04/2018 14:13

I'm glad you believed in your vote so strongly that you're simply bored now surfer

You've never made any bones about the fact your vote was all about FOM yet, even when it's clear you're not getting that, you still don't care.

Why are we bothering with this shambles if Leavers don't give enough if a shit to care what Brexit we end up with?

We might as well can the whole thing if that's the case.

surferjet · 30/04/2018 14:29

I stopped taking an interest in Brexit months ago tbh bear - that’s why I don’t post much anymore - the ‘passion’ has gone.
Things change almost weekly where brexit is concerned anyway, so it’s pointless discussing every twist & turn - I have no idea what’s happening with FOM as I don’t follow the news now, I’m just waiting until March 19 & then I’ll comment. So much can change between now & then.

Doubletrouble99 · 30/04/2018 15:12

jasjas I feel we should have controlled immigration but that it must be exactly the same for everyone no matter where you come from.

If you saw the new UKIP leader on Sunday you would see that that is exactly the same as their policy, not that I'm UKIP!

I think your perception has more to do with your perjuries than mine.

mummmy2017 · 30/04/2018 15:39

AR has gone. Labour are now baying saying TM was in charge at the time so should go as well... RM is 4:1 to replace her.... No so far fetched ...
Sometime you wonder who's side Labour is on....

jasjas1973 · 30/04/2018 16:17

jasjas I feel we should have controlled immigration but that it must be exactly the same for everyone no matter where you come from

We are in the EU, the EU operates a common FOM policy (which UK helped form) regardless of religion or colour, it is not racist, plenty of EU nations are not white nor Christian and have made the UK their home, the EU's FOM policy is no more discriminatory than my local leisure centre, you join up, you can come in, if you dont or leave you cannot.

Regardless, your logic is somewhat flawed, as we will now discriminate on education and work skills, which of course predominately favour white, first world countries.

DGRossetti · 30/04/2018 16:28

RM is 4:1 to replace her

Assuming you me Jacob RM, then save your money.

He won't go anywhere near a position he can actually be judged in. Sniping from the sidelines is his speciality.

Hasenstein · 30/04/2018 16:31

If it were decided that Brexit should be cancelled and Art. 50 withdrawn, would your 'passion' remain spent enough for you to refrain from comment until next March?

Doubletrouble99 · 30/04/2018 16:44

jasjas - there are loads of EU nationals around where I live and I certainly don't know of any that are other than white.
I think your assertion that if we have restrictions for others that we will discriminate as most immigrants will be white is completely flawed. Can't say I remember many white nurses and doctors coming from the commonwealth pre EU.

surferjet · 30/04/2018 18:45

If it were decided that Brexit should be cancelled and Art. 50 withdrawn

That’s always a possibility but I’ll wait until it actually happens before I worry about it.

bearbehind · 30/04/2018 19:17

The latest vote in the HoL has properly scuppered your 'no deal' dream mummmy

mummmy2017 · 30/04/2018 19:27

Since when did the HOL rule the EU...

Still time for it all to fall out of bed....
