That is all they were opposed to.

The whole reason the last deal was rejected was because of the backstop. The British considered the backstop to be dangerous because it had potential to destroy the Union of NI to the United Kingdom.

They Brits DO NOT CARE about anything else of the 39 Billion Dollar severance payment. It is really nothing at all.

They don't care if they don't have FREE TRADE either, which means if the deal is voted down by anyone, they are still leaving.

Anyway, Im not really interested in getting bogged down into a relentless merry go round forum. Hence my final post. It seems to be getting too vicious or personal. I don't mind banter myself but when people get too hysterical and personal then it's a bit OTT. Plus I don't have any time for this literally speaking.

Also there seems to be little consideration for facts, particularly when it comes to things like BREXIT and in addition to that there also seems to be a lot of people who wish disaster and despair against millions of people so they can have a "told you so moment'. That is a pretty sad thing.

Anyway folks, I wish you all the best and good luck to all.

just how stupid are you little boy. yes the word backstop has been removed. the reason? becasue the backstop is implemented from the begining. the whole pint of the backstop was that it put a border between ni and uk. we now will have that from the forst moment. everything will be checkd and everything will be taxed and then people can claim back what did not cross over to the roi. who possibly could come up with a tax collection system like that.

an idiot is the answer.

in case you are wondering why our debt is going up rather than down, this explains it pretty well.

Typical socialist unable to understand the difference between sales and profit... :roll:

The Groaniad wrote:Facebook’s UK operations paid £28m in corporation tax last year despite achieving a record £1.6bn in British sales.

The social media company’s latest UK accounts show that gross income from advertisers rose almost 30% last year to £1.65bn, and pretax profits surged by more than 50% from £63m to £97m.


So they paid £28m on £97m profit... :wink:

And tell us oh business expert, which of those companies you list are actually doing anything illegal...? :roll:

To quote another forum member, what a plonker... :lol:

Petsoyero, see you on BREXIT Day. I'm not going to miss out on any of the festivities when Britain finally becomes independent. :D

I'm just a little busy for now as I got a few things to attend to.

Big mistake. We will be leaving this undemocratic organisation soon and will never look back. We love our European neighbours but it is not necessary to go to bed with each other.


As long as the UK is out of where we are, it's a merry time for us in Cyprus.

Never has the word STUPID been more appropriate than when applied to the Plonkers who want out of the world's largest trading block. Compined IQ of 100 leavers = 99.6 !!
