But she is the 'Far Right' - she's only given the impression that she's become more centrist to become electable - her whole political life has been spent in and around the french National Front. Macron may be universally disliked, but he beat Le Pen over two rounds - the second with a 17% margin, so that's pretty conclusive.

Well this all going pretty much as expected. In taking back control it turns out we’ve surrendered control, whereas the EU has imposed their control from Day 1.

What a fucking fuck-up

For the hard of thinking, this is the pertinent bit:
“Goods moving from the UK will continue to be subject to checks in the EU, despite the Government deciding not to introduce the controls in Britain.”

So our exports to the EU (our biggest market by a long, long, long way) are down by a quarter (a quarter), and they can send over all their shit - with absolutely no checks - that no other country would even consider. Well done Brexity-types, that’ll show ‘em who they’re dealing with.

In his own words he says that the introduction of brexit controls on imports would cause the country an "enormous act of self-harm". Goes on to say that if the necessary controls were introduced it would add 71% to the price of french cheese and render them uneconomic to import - but our exports are subject to these controls and tariffs and have become uneconomic to export.

If anyone thinks Rees-Mogg is not an expensively-educated idiot, you're as stupid as he is.

Like Tuffers I am still waiting to hear about a single positive benefit of life post Brexit. This government is rapidly heading for a special place in the history books for its incompetence.

The split from the EU is child’s play compared to Scotland, would take a decade to negotiate.

Well they've had six years to negotiate with the EU and are still too afraid to implement the full agreement. And now want to rip up what they had the EU to agree to. Brexit was a great vote winner, just turns out that - according to Rees-Mogg - its not viable without crippling the country for the next hundred years - should have put that on the bus.

All we need are politicians with big enough sets of bollocks to start acting in our interests not our former partners! We didn’t negotiate, we bent over, pulled them down and said “go on as hard as you like and forget the lube”.

Smirns, where did all the bullish 'they need us, more than we need them' rhetoric go? Over here, we all knew we'd get fook all - it was obvious.

Tuffers, Nothing was or is obvious. The game is still in play, our political elite have an agenda and that agenda only includes one thing. A long game of setting the scene for a return to the fold! The ineptitude of those saying that they were for the break cannot be accidental. As usual, occasionally us proles convince ourselves that we are in the game. When in fact, we cannot even see the real game being played. Let alone be allowed to truly be actively involved in the game. We aren’t even pawns!

‘We’d get fook all’, faf.

We got our independence if we would just have the bollox to use it, as Smirns pointed out.

You know, the independence that is somehow OK for the Scots, Welsh, Irish and every other fucker but us, according to you EU groupies.

On that subject, there is zero chance of the Northern Irish or Jocks voting for independence. Having seen how Nicola and her gang of incompetents is ruining every area of Scottish life, even the Jocks aren’t daft enough to go for it. When the chips are down, there is no chance of the residents of NI voting for a united Ireland. The UK should trigger Articie 16 tomorrow and put the Eurocrats back in their box.

Meanwhile the EU parliament opens with 10 minutes of ‘interpretive dance’, fucking hilarious.

We got out just in time ffs.

Hey Guff, did you know there are now more Ireland passport holders in Northern Ireland than British passport holders (and why not, its soooo much more useful).

Ireland is already in the EU (did you not know that?). If Scotland gained independence, its next move would be application to join the EU. No doubt by then Wales would have begun to go down the same path. The pound has been falling all year because of a collapse of inward investment, but as Scouse says, you just go on believing that its the EU that is failing and maybe you'll make it happen.

There are Irish passport holders everywhere since they started giving them away with cornflakes Tufnell.

I did say ‘Northern Ireland’ didn’t I? They are not in the EU yet (didn’t you know that?) and won’t be in the foreseeable future.

The Jocks won’t vote for independence either, it would be a disaster for them. In their current state the EU wouldn’t have them anyway and the same goes for Wales.

You EU mercenaries selling your souls for an Irish passport can continue to delude yourselves, but the EU is crumbling round the edges, you can’t see that because your religious zeal for the cult doesn’t allow you to look.
