[Politics] Brexit

[Baldseagull]

Most of the links that have been posted in regards of settled status have been wrong or completely misleading today. I've used the system and it works very well.

Glad it worked ok for you, but that doesn't mean it is going to for everyone.

 

[Baldseagull]

and if you happen to know about Settled Status in the first place. Still, if Johnson is granting an amnesty to illegal immigrants already here, a few hundred thousand more from The EU who didn't apply wont make much of a difference - I'm sure The Home Office have got it all covered.

Home Office budget just had a £50k hit.

Absolute rubbish. Everyone will be affected in some way by a 'no deal' including the EU.

Yes, but it will be far worse for us. Ireland is the only EU member state that might suffer to a similar degree to the UK, but they will have the EU trying to assist them.

There is just one company in the UK that makes insulin which is enough for 1500-2000 patients. There are 421,000 insulin diabetic patients in the UK. Novo Nordisk is just one of three companies.
https://www.channel4.com/news/factc...supplies-really-at-risk-from-a-no-deal-brexit

I know that we produce little insulin, I don’t dispute that. That wasnt the question
I asked where you got your figure of 90% from Denmark when you said
“90% of our insulin comes from Denmark”
That link does not say 90% comes from Denmark.
The Market share of Novo Nordisk in Europe who are the only one of the big three producers in Europe who manufacture insulin in Denmark is no way near 90% of the market.
Don’t forget, as I said,the news tonight said that Danish firm (Novo Nordisk ) supply roughly just under half of the insulin to the UK (which is roughly in line with their European market share figures)
So where did you get 90% comes from Denmark?

Don’t forget about your 30% rejection rate, you still havnt said where you got that from either.

Some absolute extraordinary reporting tonight, following Johnson's meeting with Merkel ... and not just from hardline Brexit outlets. It's being presented as a triumph for him as Merkel has given him 30 days to come up with an alternative solution but she's done nothing but present the EU case .... which hasn't changed for months. But to read some of the British press, you'd think that Johnson had pulled off some diplomatic triumph.

I feel like I'm living in some alternative reality

Ah, but that's the thing. It's endemic amongst those types, the 'I'm alright Jack' mentality.

 

[Eeyore]

Merkel says it's the UK's job to present changes to the back stop, Johnson says they will do it in the next 30 days

Another Johnson lie no doubt

Macron won't be as reasonable. It's the Franco-German good cop act.

Edit: Annnd right on cue.....

Would that make Germany and France the main players in the eu after all? Seems like it doesn't it.

You’ll get your chance to **** the Tories hard right over soon enough

“Mr Macron added that "the British are attached to being a great power" but after Brexit could become merely a "junior partner" of the US.“

True dat.

They are the two largest and richest nations in the EU, so it's not surprising that they carry the most clout in the EU. However all decisions within the EU have to be reached unanimously, any nation can veto any decision they don't like.

Not true - you're sounding like Thunderbolt now.

It is true. All nations within the EU have a veto. It's one of the major barriers to a post-independence Scotland rejoining the EU, no way will Spain not veto it if it'll encourage the Catalans and Basques.

Countries only have a veto in certain areas. Elsewhere QMV is used - for example QMV is used in the following areas : border checks, culture, europol, ECJ and many more. You are correct that when it comes to actual membership then all countries have the right to veto a new member but you said they have that option in 'all decisions'.
