Time to bomb that nice Russian built nuclear power plant?

NO. Iran responds like for like. They detain our ship because we detained theirs. 

At the moment, we release theirs and they release ours. Tensions eased. And we have said we will release theirs provided it doesn't go to Syria. 

We go bombing Iran and they'll start killing our people in Iraq. 

At any rate, this isn't the thread for it.

Sorry everyone but the volatile oil prices due to this Iranian War means we have to extend Article 50.

Secretly - everyone knows war is an election winner so Boris then goes for General Election.

What does LNG have to do with brexit? Anyway, Russia can supply plenty.

Incorrect, the UK was upholding EU sanctions against Iran. when the Iranian tanker anchored in British waters.

33% of our LNG comes through that part of the world, the freedom of navigation of British vessels is being contested. it could have a major impact on our energy supplies.

Russia and its supply, the UK has long standing contracts with allies in the region for the supply of GAS. why should we cancel those contracts at a great financial loss because of Iran's actions.

Britain was just carrying out it's international responsibility, should the UK be bothered if Iran fuels Assad's Syrian army? Iran are playing a very dangerous game, Britain will now join American sanctions of Iran and encourage the rest of Europe to do the same, everyone has to use these international waters, Iran is very hungry next month it will be starving.

I like Barnier's tweet. Desperate for the Withdrawal agreement to be signed. The same Withdrawal Agreement that only a country defeated in war would sign and as been defeated massively in the UK parliament 3 times. It's been said by Barnier that the British negotiators Olly Robbins etal never once mentioned the word leaving. I'm sure Boris will.

well we've only gone and signed another trade agreement. this time with Central-America. 

I was told no-one will want to trade with the UK if it leaves the EU.

The UK has trade agreements with: (to enter into force on leaving the EU)

  • Andean countries
  • CARIFORUM trade bloc
  • Central America
  • Chile
  • Eastern and Southern Africa (ESA) trade bloc 
  • Faroe Islands
  • Iceland and Norway
  • Israel
  • Liechtenstein
  • Pacific states
  • Palestinian Authority
  • South Korea
  • Mexico
  • Switzerland
  • South Africa
  • The countries covered by the UK-Andean countries trade agreement are:
  • Colombia
  • Ecuador
  • Peru
  • Brazil
  • The countries covered by the UK-CARIFORUM economic partnership agreement are:
  • Antigua and Barbuda
  • The Commonwealth of the Bahamas
  • Barbados
  • Belize
  • The Commonwealth of Dominica
  • The Dominican Republic
  • Grenada
  • The Republic of Guyana
  • Jamaica
  • Saint Christopher and Nevis
  • Saint Lucia
  • Saint Vincent and the Grenadines
  • The Republic of Suriname
  • The Republic of Trinidad and Tobago
  • The Commonwealth of the Bahamas and The Republic of Suriname
  • The countries covered by the UK-Central America trade agreement are:
  • Costa Rica
  • El Salvador
  • Guatemala
  • Honduras
  • Nicaragua
  • Panama
  • The countries which will be covered by the ESA-UK economic partnership agreement are: 
  • Madagascar
  • Mauritius 
  • Seychelles 
  • Zimbabwe
  • Madagascar is approved in principle and expected to sign shortly
  • The countries which will be covered by the UK-Pacific economic partnership agreement are:
  • Papua New Guinea
  • Fiji
  • Australia
  • New Zealand
  • United States
  •  

Add Canada & Japan and I'd call that a home run. Countries we have no trade deal with at present but could enter into talks with China & India. 

Do the EU members want to lose their UK market share to other countries from around the world? well, lobby your Govt. because as we've seen the EU doesn't operate in the interest of ALL its members, just ask Ireland.

Need to get a new Royal Yacht, the amount of trade deals struck by the Queen and trade envoys was mind blowing, it offered a private secure and trusted place away from the media and cameras and full hospitality of a state visit at sea.

Oh, now you're worried for the well-being of the refugees? 

Judging by the number of times you've expressed you're scared ****less of refugees, you should be thanking our police for pushing them back. 

 

Seriously now, yes, force is being used occasionally. No one's happy about that.

These people 'only' want to go through Croatia, they often desperately explain that when caught illegally crossing the border, and our police knows that, but the police is ordered not to let them through.    

Those rare ones who want to ask for asylum in Croatia are accepted. 

In other words, what are you moaning about now? You were having nervous breakdowns when we let Syrians through, now you're upset we're not letting any more refugees through?

What do you want then? Always the opposite of that, what is happening?

Not only are the police beating them but robbing them of their money as well. police robbing them, you couldn't make it up. It seems the Croatian warm welcome soon gave way to brutality. disgusting.

Actually, you could make that up. Because if it wasn't made up, the policemen who would do such crime would lose their job and end up in prison. 

So, what is that, that you want? That Croatia lets refugees through? Into the EU? 

Oh, oh, wait, I get it... you've been mortified with fear from the poor, brown people coming, but now, as you're on your way out of the EU, you wish there's more of them coming to the EU? 

But don't you know we'll feed them, house them and use them against you :)

Lets hope there is some criminal justice left in Croatia and those responsible are held to account for their brutal and criminal actions. Germany welcomed them, Croatia did not. Croatians living abroad & being welcomed to other countries such as the UK after the misery they went through years ago...Racist hypocrites!

Not only that, we're also magicians - wizards, actually. Because only a wizard could make you whine about stopping refugees :lol:  and kissing German butt. 

Go on, practice some more, you'll need it once you finally get kicked out of the EU and start begging for readmission. 

 

You're the same guy who was posting the most repulsive, inhumane propaganda against refugees, mocking them in their misery. 

It's a pleasure to see your irrational sleaziness in all its disgusting glory.
