@LucyWoodslucy70
Seems you're being economical with the truth if the Irish Times is to be believed
The shortage is due to Dutch growers being unable to afford to heat their greenhouses
@LucyWoodslucy70
Seems you're refusing to supply Ireland too, they've got the same shortages
On the upside, there's no reason for the UK not to grow our own now we know that supply's from NL are unreliable
@AkanKwaku
Perhaps you should take your idea to the descendents of the people who enslaved them in the first place,Arab slave traders and other African tribes, the UK only bought what they were selling
@JolyonMaugham
The UK isn't helping because it's too busy fighting ambulance chasing lawyers making erroneous claims and an opposition obsessed with Boris having a beer during lockdownn
@NicholasTyrone
We won't be back in the EU, every trade deal we sign, every year we're out and as the EU's increasing collective debt(€1.8 TRILLION) is added to each State's individual debt, the EU will become an even less attractive, and more costly, place to be
It's not going to happen

@john4brexit
The UK gets greater access to the Services Market inside the CPTPP than it had inside the EU and gets greater access inside the CPTPP than China, Germany and USA presently has, so there's an immediate competitive advantage
@LizWebsterSBF
As long as the people in the Red Wall kept our heads down and did as we were told, then everything was wonderful in Remain land
The divisions started when we decided not to listen to the entitled political class and big business and they HATED it so decided to undo Brexit
@MrKennethClarke
You're showing all the hallmarks of someone whose expectation of a cushy EU post with associated pension, à la the Kinnocks, has suddenly been removed
@niceventure
@guyverhofstadt
Surely the 'values' of the EU should be determined by ALL the Members of the EU and not just a select group within the EU deciding the direction, speed and punishments of those who don't agree
Poland is either sovereign or it's not, which is it???
@IrexitFreedom
It will take time but the penny will eventually drop that the EU isn't now or ever has been friendly towards Ireland.
It might take a few years of being milked and giving away your fishing before there's a majority to leave but i guarantee that day will come

The point is that large families of East Europeans can no longer arrive and expect residency because the head of the household picks asparagus for a couple of months then sells The Big Issue for the rest of the year whilst claiming housing benefit and access to the NHS

@UKLabour
I live in the Red Wall amongst vehemently anti EU Brexiteers and I haven't met one that's changed their minds..not ONE
If anything they've become even more anti EU, if that was possible, so I can only assume the pollsters were standing outside Labour Conference
@BeckettUnite
Are all their assets accessible to the UK Exchequer and in a form that can be easily taxed or is this just another idea that shows how dopey some people are
Because they live here doesn't mean their wealth is

Who removed her if it wasn't the UK voter via its representatives in govt, or were you just being pedantic
As the UK is moving further away from the EU's sphere of influence it must be worrying times to be one of the EU's Useful Idiots
@LizWebsterSBF
Now calculate the cost of eu migrants, and their dependants, to Social Housing, the NHS, school places, the environment and the Welfare budget
That's the price the rest of us pay so you can have cheap labour on your farm Liz
@FabianZuleeg
It's not going to happen..
Even Kier Smarmer has got that message
“Under Labour, Britain will not go back into the EU. We will not be joining the single market. We will not be joining a customs union,” he told the Centre for European Reform (CER) in July.
@acgrayling
All roads lead back to energy, its what you need to run industry and its products
Without energy the EU is screwed because it hardly has any and has to buy it from its main competitor who has a reputation of playing hardball and doesn't do favours
The UK however has an abundance
@BarristersHorse
In my opinion the EU don't care so much about access to the vaccine they're more concerned about the UK stealing a commercial march
So if the EU can't speed up their vaccinations they'll try and slow the UK's down, that's the way they operate
@Dr_BellaR
I live in the Red Wall and have NEVER met ONE who's regretted voting Brexit
All this "I've met Brexit voters who've regretted voting Brexit" bollocks always comes from Remainers
Do you strike up Brexit conversations with your patients or do they bring them up with you?
@OxfordDiplomat
Actually, despite the constant interruption from both you aren't the chairperson, Tice has been proven right, there won't be a hard border on the ioI, but at least you've given your ego and prejudice another airing
Brexit is a much bigger body blow to the EU than they'd care to admit
When the UK left, the EU lost almost one quarter of its total GDP, almost all of its fish and a big chunk of its trade bargaining power now that access to the UK market doesn't come with it
@sandieshoes
As the saying goes; the USA innovates, China duplicates and the EU regulates, aims ir up really
You can now add the UK to the innovation list now we've left the EU, Oxford Uni has even discovered the first effective vaccine against malaria, see if the BBC reports that
@inmarshall1001
I don't expect any bill that isn't itemized in detail and is also be presenting them with my calculations of our portion of EU assets
The legal arguments could drag on for decades until the EU no longer exists
@alexis_xh
@KenViatex
@jenniferhotspur
The UK will decide who can come here, who can't, how many and most importantly whether they can access Social Housing and the Benefits system.
EU citizens can come here in unlimited numbers and they all those and we have no say in the matter
@sandieshoes
It's going to be incorporated into their budget of which only 9 countries are net contributors
So you have 9 countries on the hook for a €1.8 trillion budget of which €750b is a debt
A s***storm is heading the EU's way, it'll make good viewing from the outside though
@LizWebsterSBF
Big business wanted access to cheap unlimited labour from the EU, so wanted to Remain
The Treasury's Green Book rules were the cause of a lack of investment outside London and the SE so those rules had to be changed and it was one of the first things Boris did
@acgrayling
Keep it up AC because it wasn't just the EU we voted against, but also people like you who's value to society is still a mystery to even larger swathes of the country
@PhDole
@trussliz
Unlike the EU, it does not aim to create a single market or a customs union, and it does not seek wider political integration, we get to control our money, borders and laws without the EU's control freakery
@sandieshoes
The people of Hartlepool also said the same but it seems that Labour are in denial and it might take Batley and Spen for the penny to actually drop
@BelfastTuras
Looks like they've seen a career opportunity in the EU
The EU are looking for 50 translators with a salary of €54,000/annum,a total of €2.7m to translate into a language that only 6.3% of the population speak, you couldn't make it up

@mhdksafa
Or perhaps it's about defending the only true democracy in the Middle East and that the only alternative is Hamas who, let's not forget in 2014 obliterated Fatah from Gaza
Hamas doesn't like competition from other Palestinians
@nealerichmond
Not working for the UK and that's what matters for the UK so it has to go, NI can get everything from the UK that they can get from the EU so why should NI be denied UK goods in favour I'd EU goods
So great for the EU but not so for the UK
@NicholasTyrone
Then even now you really don't understand why we voted Brexit because you still aren't listening and/or think that everything comes down to money or the price of Brie
@theleftbible
I always hang on every word issued from the lips of someone who's devoted their whole life to pretending to be someone else
How else could you get such wondrous political insights
@sandieshoes
All it shows is how desperate the anti Boris brigade are becoming, they can't handle the fact that the only people that are bothered are them, Laura Kuenssberg and the BBC
To see their frustration look at how miserable and unhappy Kuenssberg is progressively becoming
What joy

@frank3davies
Its taken a Tory government under Boris to build a passenger rail line between Ashington, the largest town in England and which has never had a passenger train service, and Newcastle
The town that's always returned Labour and has Lavery as its MP
Labour did nothing for the NE
@NicholasTyrone
I suspect if we'd been told that by voting Remain, in 2021 we'd be responsible for repayment of the 2nd largest amount of a €1.8TRILLION EU loan/budget then Remain would have got hardly any votes
@nealerichmond
Neither the UK nor the EU have a trade deal with the USA and it works just fine so why not have the same arrangement between the UK and the EU, the won't be much if any extra paperwork than there is now and we get ALL of our fishing back immediately
What's not to like
@LizWebsterSBF
I was a reluctant Brexiter in 2016 but now I'm a fervent Brexiter
It's been the best thing to happen to the UK and only people who've been brainwashed by Remain propaganda could think otherwise
Paying to buy £80bn more of their goods than they bought from you is ridiculous

Hang on! You didn't know that 19 states took more out of the budget than they put in, did you..... did you?
What about the budget latest?
Who's funding the coronabond and who gets the money?
Another thick Remainer who knows shit about the EU.
It's on its arse.
@GavinBarwell
Of course it has something to do with Brexit, it shows Brexit is working as those of us who voted Brexit hoped
Mass EU migration has suppressed wages for UK workers for too long, especially at the lower end of the earnings scale and now it's being addressed now BRINO's history

Except of course that The Mayor of London was given a direct mandate for policing in London in 2011, as part of the Police and Social Responsibility Act. As such, the Mayor is responsible for setting the strategic direction of policing in London through the Police and Crime Plan.
@SFRCdems
The EU is playing the USA like an old fiddle and you're just not bright enough to see it
As for a trade deal with the USA that's been off the table for some time but it was always something that's nice to have but not essential and interestingly something the EU didn't want
@IrexitFreedom
I recognise all the comments you make and if people won't/don't believe what happens next you just have to look at the UK and see how our citizens had to allow EU citizens to jump the housing queue on the basis of greater need
@robertsessford1
@BorisJohnson
T'is too late it's about to happen
Not only that but if China and the USA join it's game over for the EU and the Rejoiners
Happening later this year apparently
@alexhallhall
And in return what do those of us get who don't want to have a 'life experience' in the EU, a 6m increase in population and the attendent impact on our infrastructure, green spaces and Carbon Footprint that's what
Sorry for your loss Alex 😭
@IanLaveryMP
You need to look closer to home Ian, you just clung on to your own seat in what used to be an impregnable Labour stronghold and blyth which had never voted Tory befor in its history now had a Tory MP, ever wondered how all that happened?
@na_croi
@mooreholmes24
Has he really, so he's not meeting Sefcovic today and there's been no indication of even more concessions from the EU, in addition to the 80% of rules they've already conceded, if he drops his demand for removing the ECJ
So none of that's happened or about to happen
Interesting
@SiobhanBenita
Except of course the combined EU budget/loan is currently thinking at €1.8 TRILLION and the UK with Germany and France would have been obliged to pay most of that back
Bullet dodged there
@scribblercat
@heawood
Could this be another Remoaner theme where they suffered food shortages in their areas that no one else had. In fact some were almost on the verge of starvation
Been to Poland recently, as have both my children at different times and didn't have a problem whatsoever
@campbellclaret
When did you become an expert on trade
Stick to what you know best, killing hundreds of thousands of innocent people by telling lies as you did during the Iraq war
@LizWebsterSBF
You do know that the EU is forcing countries to open up their national Rail and Energy companies to "liberalisation and competition" aka Privatisation
So it appears the EU is adopting the UK system

@DavidGHFrost
Only a situation where both sides have a common set of rules set and monitored by an impartial independent body, will ever work with the EU.
A trade deal with them has to many strings so forget it and go WTO rules, at least that way there really is a level playing field.
@BarristersHorse
I'm a Red Wall ex Labour Party member who has seen his Party hijacked by pressure groups and champagne Socialists
We don't fall for juvenile slogans and see patronising BS for what it is and those are the only 2 things Labour has in its locker
They'll never understand us
