Kier Starmer is daft. Of course the EU isn't going to reform THE single market to permit us tariff free access.
Blah blah blah blah blah
Another stunningly valuable contribution from you Pigface
David Davis.
What could possibly go wrong?

Blah blah blah blah blahAnother stunningly valuable contribution from you Pigface
It's still significantly more useful than anything you've posted, Jamby
and briefer and more factually accurate
How can he post what he doe son here and then get upset that is he not taken seriously or his opinion respected
Another stunningly valuable contribution from you Pigface
As Zokes says makes more sense than your usual contribution
Kier Starmer is daft.
What does that make you?

I think Jambalaya is right. We're heading for hard Brexit. Everything else is just wishful thinking.
Note that I am *not* saying that a hard Brexit is a good thing.
they need us more than we need and we will get a trade deal ...shall i reference you saying that for you Jambers?
I agree we wont get this and we never were going to get this
We could never leave and have a better deal than in.
the problem is this is not what vote leave nor he was saying prior to the vote it is what stay was saying would happen.
He is right but only after being wrong for years on this and "forgetting" what he originally said
It might just be me as well but if Davis or a tory had said it i rather feel like he would be praising it as achievable and proof of something or other as his principles appear very fluid.
Ah deadly still dragging up a post from 3 weeks before the election amdnone I revised downwards.
85% of people voted for a Brexit I support, no freedom of movement, no membership of /access to THE single market and no customs union.
@zokes if you and others had paid more attention to what I was posting and the issues raised maybe Remain might have won. Remain failed totally to do so hence the 85% of votrs at the GE being cast for Brexit Manifestos.
Blah blah blah blah
The whole "no deal is better than a bad deal" guff that was spouted by Theresa Gray was just an amateurish attempt to soften up the British public for the inevitable failure of the negotiations.
85% of people voted for a Brexit I support, no freedom of movement, no membership of /access to THE single market and no customs union.
No, absolute ******** a large number of people voted for the whoever they felt would represent them best, May asked for a mandate to negotiate she lost, people are sick and tired of austerity. Further of the choices who is going to fail in brussels, quite clearly the tory party is way out of its depth. Being blunt there was very little mention of brexit during the election.
Welcome to a two party system where you vote for the least worst option. If Kensington votes Labour what does that say about the Tory party.
still trying to rewrite history with your falsehoods. you said at the time it remains 50-100 didnt you. No one defended how you reacted to that as it was shameless and frankly a little embarrassing. Even folk who appeared to know you in the real world admonished you. its up to you whether you reflect on that and learn.Ah deadly still dragging up a post from 3 weeks before the election amdnone I revised downwards.
Did i miss another referendum? they voted for parties who support that position, to various degrees, they did not vote for Brexit. There is spin and then there is BS this is BS85% of people voted for a Brexit I support, no freedom of movement, no membership of /access to THE single market and no customs union.
As i said i voted labour but am not pro brexit.
BRILLIANT if you had paid more attention you would not have claimed 50-100 as you had already said so please dont give us lectures on paying attention you cannot even remember what you said.@zokes if you and others had paid more attention to what I was posting and the issues raised maybe Remain might have won.
Well done you managed to phrase it correctly but the reason is false...small steps eh small stepsRemain failed totally to do so hence the 85% of votrs at the GE being cast for Brexit Manifestos.
I love the way Jamba pulls figures out of the air to try and back his cause. Funny how 51.8% last year to leave is now 85% for a hard brexit. You just couldn't make it up.... Oh.
He lives on a different planet from me.
So. Our crack negotiating team, they done the DUP 10 yet? Jeez, after that Brexit is going to be a breeze...
And no deal better than a bad deal. Here's the thing, no deal is literally the worst you can get. Unless our fearless champs of negotiations can royally **** things [i]really[/i] badly... Oh, sorry. I get you now. No deal it is then 😯

He also came out with the same BS a week ago and was put straight then. It really is pointless engaging with him and I really don't see why anyone bothers.

How many countries on earth have no trade deals, remember we are going from 100's to ZERO. Really going to help the UK economy.
Look at the Labour position, jobs matter, and the Tory position we'll create a tax haven.
Which do you think is preferable for the vast majority?
@kerley: I was talking [i]about [/i]him, not [i]to[/i] him... 😆
After his little tirade about the republican shooting the other day, I'm not engaging with him. A line (of common decency) has been crossed.
@mrmo: ?
My point is that the crack negotiations team is so shit that they can't even get the worst deal, no, they have to go worse than that... Don't think I'm endorsing the useless ****s (or brexit) because I'm not!
Survey in today's Mail on Sunday 69% against a hard brexit.
I didn't vote Labour because I support their position on Brexshit. I voted for them because they are not ****s.
@metalheart, not contradicting you, sorry if not clear,
Tories are going to screw it up, labour might, but i (shockingly) believe that Labour are more capable than the Tories.
People didn't vote labour for their? version of brexit, they voted to send a strong message to the Tories, and make sure they understood they didn't have a mandate to screw us all in the ass.
Just read this article translated from a respected Swiss Newspaper. This is how it is being seen from over there....
[i]This article in a Swiss newspaper today is so ruthlessly clear-sighted in its assessment of just how screwed we are that I just had to translate it for the non-German speakers. Hold on to your hats:

"THE LAUGHING STOCK OF EUROPE
[Translation by Paula Kirby]
If it weren't so serious, the situation in Great Britain would almost be comical. The country is being governed by a talking robot, nicknamed the Maybot, that somehow managed to visit the burned-out tower block in the west of London without speaking to a single survivor or voluntary helper. Negotiations for the country’s exit from the EU are due to begin on Monday, but no one has even a hint of a plan. The government is dependent on a small party that provides a cozy home for climate change deniers and creationists. Boris Johnson is Foreign Secretary. What in the world has happened to this country?
Two years ago David Cameron emerged from the parliamentary election as the shining victor. He had secured an absolute majority, and as a result it looked as if the career of this cheerful lightweight was headed for surprisingly dizzy heights. The economy was growing faster than in any other industrialised country in the world. Scottish independence and, with it, the break-up of the United Kingdom had been averted. For the first time since 1992, there was a Conservative majority in the House of Commons. Great Britain saw itself as a universally respected actor on the international stage. This was the starting point.
In order to get from this comfortable position to the chaos of the present in the shortest possible time, two things were necessary: first, the Conservative right wingers’ obsessive hatred of the EU, and second, Cameron’s irresponsibility in putting the whole future of the country on the line with his referendum, just to satisfy a few fanatics in his party. It is becoming ever clearer just how extraordinarily bad a decision that was. The fact that Great Britain has become the laughing stock of Europe is directly linked to its vote for Brexit.
The ones who will suffer most will be the British people, who were lied to by the Brexit campaign during the referendum and betrayed and treated like idiots by elements of their press. The shamelessness still knows no bounds: the Daily Express has asked in all seriousness whether the inferno in the tower block was due to the cladding having been designed to meet EU standards. It is a simple matter to discover that the answer to this question is No, but by failing to check it, the newspaper has planted the suspicion that the EU might be to blame for this too. As an aside: a country in which parts of the press are so demonstrably uninterested in truth and exploit a disaster like the fire in Grenfell Tower for their own tasteless ends has a very serious problem.
Already prices are rising in the shops, already inflation is on the up. Investors are holding back. Economic growth has slowed. And that’s before the Brexit negotiations have even begun. With her unnecessary general election, Prime Minister Theresa May has already squandered an eighth of the time available for them. How on earth an undertaking as complex as Brexit is supposed to be agreed in the time remaining is a mystery.
Great Britain will end up leaving its most important trading partner and will be left weaker in every respect. It would make economic sense to stay in the single market and the customs union, but that would mean being subject to regulations over which Britain no longer had any say. It would be better to have stayed in the EU in the first place. So the government now needs to develop a plan that is both politically acceptable and brings the fewest possible economic disadvantages. It’s a question of damage limitation, nothing more; yet even now there are still politicians strutting around Westminster smugly trumpeting that it will be the EU that comes off worst if it doesn’t toe the line.
The EU is going to be dealing with a government that has no idea what kind of Brexit it wants, led by an unrealistic politician whose days are numbered; and a party in which old trenches are being opened up again: moderate Tories are currently hoping to be able to bring about a softer exit after all, but the hardliners in the party – among them more than a few pigheadedly obstinate ideologues – are already threatening rebellion. An epic battle lies ahead, and it will paralyse the government.
EU chief negotiator Michel Barnier has said that he now expects the Brits to finally set out their position clearly, since he cannot negotiate with himself. The irony of this statement is that it would actually be in Britain’s best interests if he did just that. At least that way they’d have one representative on their side who grasps the scale of the task and is actually capable of securing a deal that will be fair to both sides. The Brits do not have a single negotiator of this stature in their ranks. And quite apart from the Brexit terms, both the debate and the referendum have proven to be toxic in ways that are now making themselves felt.
British society is now more divided than at any time since the English civil war in the 17th century, a fact that was demonstrated anew in the general election, in which a good 80% of the votes were cast for the two largest parties. Neither of these parties was offering a centrist programme: the election was a choice between the hard right and the hard left. The political centre has been abandoned, and that is never a good sign. In a country like Great Britain, that for so long had a reputation for pragmatism and rationality, it is grounds for real concern. The situation is getting decidedly out of hand.
After the loss of its empire, the United Kingdom sought a new place in the world. It finally found it, as a strong, awkward and influential part of a larger union: the EU. Now it has given up this place quite needlessly. The consequence, as is now becoming clear, is a veritable identity crisis from which it will take the country a very long time to recover."

Seems fair comment to me, thanks Welsh Farmer.

Liar.
Welsh farmer; what's the original source of that translation, there's bits of it I'd like to use in a discussion elsewhere but I'd need to know the origin beforehand. Old fashioned I know.

Thanks
This twitter has Not written anything of substance or importance at all.
What a gullible twitter. 😆
1st paragraph - totally dramatic expression I can do that better.
2nd paragraph - misleading information as Brexit voters come from all or every parties regardless. This information alone shows naivety on the twitter views.
3rd paragraph - how does the twitter evaluate suffering? How does the twitter measure that. Besides, why so concerned about UK?
4th paragraph - Inflation up & down is rather normal. As for the investors they are the same all over coz everyone is waiting. Now to make a big deal by a twitter? Ya, tell your own investors to invest blindly.
5th paragraph - How does the twitter know Britain future? Stronger or weaker? There is a time for adjustment so does that mean the twitter's crystal ball can see future?
6th paragraph - EU bureaucratic system just have to negotiate with British Govt, nothing you can do about it coz you're not in-charged.
7th paragraph - EU chief negotiator Michel Barnier just have to be patient as there is nothing he can do about who UK send for negotiation. Not up to him to dictate who UK negotiator(s) is.
8th paragraph - Go look at your own EU bureaucratic controlled backyard states then see if they are divided.
9th paragraph - So the twitter is still thinking of empire building. Really they cannot consider alternatives and in a way actually reflect the true nature of EU bureaucratic system. i.e. empire building but just does not admit it. You got to be so silly not to see that.
You lot just like to see or to read whatever materials that fit your view only. Simple. 😆

Hmmm - not sure this fits with '85% voting for Brexit':
http://www.msn.com/en-gb/news/uknews/british-people-have-changed-their-minds-on-brexit-poll-finds/ar-BBCPaJH?li=AA59G2&ocid=spartandhp
Fifty-three per cent of people would back a vote on whether to accept the terms of the final Brexit deal, with 47 per cent opposed, a Survation poll found.When the same question was asked in April, a majority of 54 per cent were against a second referendum.
The survey results suggests there is increasing opposition among the public to a 'hard Brexit'.
Only 35 per cent agreed with Theresa May that "no deal is better than a bad deal" in EU negotiations, the research for The Mail on Sunday found.
Some 69 per cent of people were against Britain leaving the EU customs union, a key issue in the talks.
well they both cannot be right85% of people voted for a Brexit I support, no freedom of movement, no membership of /access to THE single market and no customs union
Its a tough tough call this on the one hand the pollsters with their track record and on the other Jamby with his
Cannot call 😉
To suggest people voted Labour in order to obtain hard Brexit is utter nonsense.
Jamby with his
Austria has turned Nazi, The Netherlands is under the jackboot of the Far Right Wilders, France is ruled by LePen, the Eurozone is collapsing when markets open tomorrow, Turkey is set to be fast-fracked to full EU membership by August. And Germany will lurch to the right this year as well.
And the Tories have a majority of
150.
Speaks for itself JY. No idea what you're on about.

Wow ! that's a scary glimpse into a dark dystopian reality
Phew, so relieved that didn't happen.
Given the events of last week I thought we were living in a dark dystopian reality
Yes WE are, but Europe has escaped.
John McDonnell confirmed again today (on Sophie Ridge) that Labour's position is no freedom of movement, no membership of the single market and no customs union. Not surprising he did that as its all in here
