BBCJLandale pmdfoster They are acting like a totalitarian regime at the moment over BREXIT!

BBCJLandale pmdfoster Oh, look, they have the word union in them so must be the same! It's the same logic as saying the Nazis were socialists because they used the word. Our former quality newspapers are determined to destroy themselves with their own stupidity. Nobody will miss you or the Tories.

BBCJLandale pmdfoster As was told to the Brexiters before the referendum, but all they cried was "Project Fear!" Their arrogance and stupidity has damaged Britain for many years to come. Brexit

BBCJLandale pmdfoster No, he is wrong. Bunch of clowns.

JakubKrupa pmdfoster What bollocks from the torygraph! this is the narrative the tories need us to believe to justify their enormous gamble with our futures

pmdfoster

pmdfoster

pmdfoster Oh dear the penny finally dropped after 2 years you are only realising that the EU always had the upper hand this country is being run by idiots and charlatans and the telegraph pays the biggest charlatan of all mega bucks to write odious columns UK have lost the plot

pmdfoster The Gruniad Mk ll is being silly again. Get some decent scribblers you Barclay Boys

pmdfoster The only reason it can do what it is doing is because the country’s infested with traitors

pmdfoster 😂😂😂😂😂

pmdfoster We’ve been telling you that since the referendum.

pmdfoster No less that we utterly utterly deserve.

pmdfoster Actually, he is wrong

pmdfoster You can compare the EU to the Soviet Union but the only conclusion is that they are wholly dissimilar.

pmdfoster SU - EU comparison is an apples &oranges comparison made only by those who,blind&simple, favour memes over the (historical)facts. EU: human rights court system parliament free trade freedom of movement. Q is how fair is the UK gov when it comes to it's own member states? PHD

pmdfoster Macron and Tusk were trying to get past UK MSM, reaching out. In desperation, as subtle, diplomatic, had not worked.

pmdfoster No it doesn't. What a load of rubbish. The UK will be better off once it has left the EU properly. The UK should leave the EU today.

pmdfoster Of course he's wrong - the Soviet Union didn't allow people to leave and people who tried to leave generally fetched up dead.

pmdfoster THE RIGHT WING PRESS AT IT AGAIN IF THEY OR THEIR CRONNIES WERE PART OF A BANKING FRATERNITY AND WANTED TO LEAVE DO THEY HONESTLY THINK THE OTHER MEMBERS OF THE SAID FRATERNITY WOULD AFFORD THEM SAME TERMS TO TURN UP AS AND WHEN THAT SUITS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

pmdfoster ONLY because you want everything your way and everything on your terms. It is what you do when people stand up to your pigheaded arrogance.

pmdfoster it's not a case of whip hand. UK leaving eu because it does not like the rules. Eu has no reason to change the rules - it's the country leaving that doesn't like them. Uk should just get on with it & leave. Eu can maintain its rules. UK is an outside economy.

pmdfoster Is the EU like the Soviet Union?

pmdfoster But...but...our cards!!!

pmdfoster Aw. The snowflake Tories are finding out that negotiating with themselves instead of Brussels is not working out for them and now they say that the position that the EU has had for 2 years is 'driving a hard bargain'. 😂

Jeremy Hunt gave wrong information on scale of breast cancer screening errorsError 'caused unnecessary concern to the public and additional distress to women affected,' independent review says Is anyone surprised? BinnertdeB You could have stopped after the first 5 words. The nation's health needs as a priority a minister with NHS experience, not just some politician who moves sections whenever there is a reshuffle. Its because of the ineptitude of many of our ministers that our infrastructure especially regarding health is so poorly administered
