For those of us quietly sad about leaving the EU.

[DioneTheDiabolist]

I'm not making a song and dance about it. I'm not falling out with anyone over it. I dont want to debate it. I'm just sad about it.

And that's ok.

Anyone else with me?

I would give quite serious money to sit down with Mystery's wife for a chat. I think it would be enlightening

As MN is anonymous I am unable to provide her contact details. However, she would happily take your money as if the other party (me) is not around you could be told anything.

I think your acrimonious divorce has coloured your view on the UK and Brexit.

Yes. If she was genuinely unhappy why stay in the UK? Stepdaughter showed me the text from her mother about the tax credits, etc.

Because your son lives in the UK and she is his mother. Presumably it is in your son's best interests to remain in the UK (at least for now) accordingly your ex wife remains in the UK in order to be with your son. It's not rocket science is it?

Visiting her home country for a short period and leaving you son in the UK is not the same as permanently abandoning him to be raised by his grandparents.

You know this.

I agree, TheElement. I quite enjoyed it when it first started but have abandoned it because some people seem unable to resist the lure of fight club. It’s sad.

UK is much safer than his Mother's native Country. Healthcare and schooling better too. Hence the reason to move to the UK when he was 4.

Would you consider 90 days per year to be short? That was the maximum per year she could be out of the UK without affecting her Citizenship application and she used them all without fail. Once she had UK passport she was out of the UK more than 90 days per year.

Nothing wrong with wanting to see family and parents in native country, but leaving children in UK for that amount of time was too long. Particularly as I have always worked outside the UK. So son was left a lot with his grandparents anyway.

Folks, can we please stop feeding the reject from the Incel boards?

I promise OP.

It's a deal

I'm glad that all the journos walked out ListeningQuietly. I hope they maintain such solidarity and commitment to the reader. Been watching BBC News. They havent said anything about it yet, but the print media online are reporting it.

On BBC News now.

Its also interesting that Barnier has suggested that Johnson read his own political declaration - which contradicts the willy waggling by him and Raab over the weekend

Thanks folks.

Yes, so glad all the political journos are standing together.

Willy waggling is the basis of this government. Dominic Cummings is a wrecker, not a builder. We are out and there seems to be no plan whatsoever. Just empty rhetoric causing confusion and uncertainty for businesses.

It's a fucking shambolic mess. And it's my country.

I’m also pleased they all walked out together

Yes, it's good to see some journalists acting with actual honourable principles in this sorry situation.

Sadly however with this talk of willy waggling I have some rather unpleasant images in my head. I wonder if these disHonourable Members of Parliament all have Union Jack willy warmers?

Union Jack willy warmers made in China?

I am waiting to see just how long it is before Johnson completely sells us out to the USA. Will we hear a peep from the Leavers about Sovereignty, and Making our Own Laws....? My guess is not.

Viagra doesn't work on all knobs though. Some are way past any help

I've switched from Radio 4 to France Inter. I'm pretending I don't live in the UK.

I'm not sure he'll sell out to USA. I suspect that he'll most likely sell the Brexiteers out to the EU (if he sticks around). I listened to his speech today and he didnt say that we wouldn't meet the EU's standards, just that we didn't have to.

Remember, for all of his bluster and bullshit, the border is going to be down the Irish Sea, something Theresa May didn't agree to.

Now I get the impression that Johnson's knob is in perfect working order. I do wonder about his brain. Forgive the crudeness there.

So what. Brexit has happened and there is no hard border at the same time.

something Theresa May didn't agree to

That’s why she was ousted. Her deal was pay to remain in the EU.

Forgive the crudeness there
Forgiven.

willy warmers made in China
Yes, but with profits going to an American parent company. We can only hope that the said warmers miraculously transmit the coronavirus.
