EU gameplan on receipt of Article 50 notice from the UK
Firstly I think they will reject the notice on a technical ground issue.
Secondly they will understandably announce that they are too busy to address anything for at least 6 months.
The Government need to anticipate this or we are going to look stupid.:thumbup:
thank God the day is coming. under ten days for serving of notice of our exit from this doomed project.

Haven't most of the UK and EU commentators (and key politicians) said for months that substantive Article 50 negotiations are unlikely to start until October - when the French and German elections are all over and the dust has settled. That is one (possibly spurious) reason why the LibDems, Greens and anti-Corbyn Labour were arguing before Christmas for a delay in the Article 50 announcement - on the grounds that Theresa May will waste 6 months of precious negotiating time just to keep her backbenchers and the Daily Mail happy.
It shouldn't come as a surprise to anyone.

Personally...I feel....with all the problems they are facing ...
French elections, Greece debt, Immigration, Turkish anti EU feeling, terrorist threats and the Euro under huge selling pressure if they can find an odd hour to discuss Brexit I will be amazed.

This whole debacle is down to this. And to think, some idiots fell for it.

The Gameplan is simple :
" Junker , Junker **** them up ! Junker **** them up ! " :hehe:
Re: EU gameplan on receipt of Article 50 notice from the UK
Beside the usual retroic about the Daily Mail it seems perfectly logical that someone has whispered in May's ear if you could delay until after these important elections we would see you right after that period, hence the delaying tactics , think it's called politics.

When is Article 50 being submitted? There was no mention of it on the news today, probably for the rest of the week too.
