Another fine mess created by Boris(PM.waiting in the wings has had his well and truly clipped)


It was something that needed doing. As for it being a mess, all anyone has to do is to look back 40 years+ and to pick the bones out of it. I am not suggesting that we go back 40 years, but the history/knowledge is there to be used as to how we managed very well prior to joining the EU. As I am writing this, I am watching Mark Carney talking up GB - incidently doing a good job in doing so.

I'm quite happy to buy their german, french or Czech republic cars, I'm quite happy if they want to buy ours....what I was not happy about was being told what to do by the EUs unelected leaders, I've nowt against the Rank and file Europeans either provided they don't all want to move here enmasse.



We don't make cars anymore, the japs do.

the thing is though we won't say "no" to german cars unless they suddenly become very expensive compared to the equivalent Japanese/chinese and of course BMW has UK based production facilities which they could move to germany if we did threaten tarriffs

We are world leaders in sarcasm. Now if only we could find a tariff free market somewhere in the world to export it to.
