You are not a bit better with your ludicrous demands to drop the backstop which was a bloody British suggestion.

And that was plan B. Anything better you want to suggest?

Hope is the denial of reality
It's not going to happen anyway. The second referendum becomes more likely every single day. And I think that is a bad thing because there is no reason to assume that a slim win by remain will be the end of this.

Keep on keepin' the beat alive!
So that rat Dyson isn't moving the seat of the company to Singapore because of Brexit. It's also pure coincidence that he sets up shop in a place with a comprehensive series of trade deals with the EU.

Oops. Lithuania seems adverse to delaying Brexit.

Ooooh things like this might hurt a bit, https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/wire...rexit-60590562. Stiff upper lip, eh.
Faith is Hope (see Loki's sig for details)
If hindsight is 20-20, why is it so often ignored?
Congratulations America
Precisely.
The cost for Airbus of doing business rises post-Brexit. They don't want that to happen, no business wants their costs to rise, so they are doing what they can to prevent/limit/mitigate that rise in costs. As such that involves extending a measure of influence for obtaining a better deal by speaking out publicly like this. If that influence amounts to nothing as it likely will with the hashtagprojectfear circus clowning around, then if the cost of moving their entire UK-based operation is less than the costs imposed by higher operating costs keeping the operation in the UK post-Brexit then that is what they will do.
Speaking out is not project fear, it's project reality. As it is for all businesses facing a cost increase post- Brexit.
Or are Brexiteers suggesting that all businesses should just put up and shut up and do nothing to mitigate and/or plan for future cost increase?
It's amazing how much the Tories hate corporate Britain.

Newspeak. Seems like Brexiteers thought 1984 was a manual rather than a cautionary tale.

Speaking of character. British conservatives really need to get a handle on this kind of rhetoric.
"One day, we shall die. All the other days, we shall live."
Some news to cheer up RandBlade: from Monday the EMA will be doing business from Amsterdam.
In the meantime the British position in the authorization process of new drugs has collapsed.

What in the actual fuck?

I mean, yes, it's a theoretical possibility but to actually open your mouth as a politician and letting this garbage proposal fall out?
When the stars threw down their spears
And watered heaven with their tears:
Did he smile his work to see?
Did he who made the lamb make thee?
Well, the BBC has tradition. They consistently give a podium to the real crazies.

John Humphreys isn't a crazy. I mean, he's kind of an ass who is Bad At Interviewing Politicians but think's he's great at it. But he's about as mainstream a journalist as it's possible to be.

The problem at his workplace is though that they think that balanced means crazy needs to get a shot at being heard too.
I for my part don’t think any debate wins by giving a platform to pathological liars who could not find their own asses if they weren’t handed to them first. Is there any chance for example that the average Brit TV watcher got better informed about the EU by having Nigel Farage on QT more than anyone else besides Dimbleby? If they couldn’t see him for the liar he is shouldn’t the fact that he rented his own office space to himself in order to fraudulently claim benefits from the EP have disqualified him as the voice for any cause ?
Congratulations America
John Humphreys doesn't work on QT. Do you think all the BBC current affairs programs share the same office space or something?

Humphrys being mainstream is kind of the thing. The BBC's editorial policy, or what can be discerned of a presumed editorial policy, appears to have embraced—and mainstreamed—a borderline crazy approach to Brexit commentary, where uninformed—and, in the case of Farage, detestable—actors are given more space and more freedom than knowledgeable experts, leading to a massive imbalance in favor of eg. Brexiter myths about trade rules. That being said, there are differences in opinion and policy, and I was glad to hear BBC5, for example, spend some time discussing these issues with Dmitry Grozoubinsky:

McEntee did very well in the interview with Humphrys:
Clear, cool, measured and honest.
"One day, we shall die. All the other days, we shall live."
Correct me if I am wrong; now ERG doesn't allow May to re-negotiate the backstop which they want to be re-negotiated out of the withdrawal agreement?
Sorry guys, but this seems like a club of borderliners having an episode.
