    I have no idea whether the P&O situation has been affected either way by Brexit. Of course my predisposition is that Brexit won't have helped, but I have no evidence to support that view.

    However, it is interesting to read the RMT Union's views prior to the referendum, especially those relating to seafarers and workers rights. The RMT are of course, and rightly upset about today's treatment of their members.

    Laugh of the day (on a day when there haven't been many things to laugh at) is Brexit Party MEP Ben Habib writing in the Express that he's going to take a case to the Supreme Court because the Brexit that Johnson agreed is "worse than remaining in the EU".

    L.O.L

    Basically saying he wanted Brexit to be far more insular, has allowed parts of the UK to stay less parochial than others and that Boris lied.

    This is news?

    I think it plays to the "I knew what I was voting for" argument, and the "that's not the Brexit I ordered" complaints.

    It's the "Hokey-Kokey" Brexit - that's what it's all about.

    This P&O thing has a tentacles.

    P&O Ferries owned by DP World. DP World owns London Gateway Freeport. DP World being a logistics company owned mainly by Dubai money and Russian shareholders.

    What is the benefit of these freeports to us?

    Yes, I info I read was a bit sketchy. DP World wholly owned by Dubai Royal family . They do have links with a Russian partnership.

    Still don't quite understand the benefit to us of freeports. They are being sold as a Brexit benefit, Dubai owning a London Freeport.

    Mr Brexit was a name given to me by Donald Trump and it has stuck. Outside of London, I get treated as a hero and never have to buy a drink. In London, I need full-time security!

    oh dear, the guy is a MORON

    Boris compares Ukraine's fight for freedom to UK voting for Brexit (msn.com)


    Boris Johnson has been branded ‘a national embarrassment’ after he compared the struggle of Ukrainians fighting the Russian invasion to British people voting for Brexit.



    Ed Davey, leader of the Liberal Democrats, branded the prime minister a ‘national embarrassment’ and compared him to the Faulty Towers character Basil Fawlty.

    Please stop calling them unionists, it's derogatory. They like to be known as "Proud Scots who prefer Scotland to be ruled by a government that sits in a foreign capital city outwith Scotland's borders".

    It’s the biggest of the unionist parties and the level of tactical voting shows that most are comfortable with them. Also, given that Westminster delivers Tory govts consistently means that if you support the union then your comfy with consistent Tory governments. You might think a Labour govt would be nice but reality is, it rarely happens and we get the Tories time after time.

    Labour have went so far to the right they are more Tory than many Tory Governments of the past.

    The fact that they have a sir in charge would leave their founders turning in their graves.

    But the only way they will ever get elected in England is by moving to the right as unlike in Scotland that's the only way to get voted in down south.

    Second round of talks tomorrow in Bruxelles, when Biden is talking to EU leaders, will be without Johnson. Johnson was desperate to attend. Let’s remember that Brexit means Brexit. Uk have deliberately and stupidly given up its seat in the Eu council.
