Is the choice of name for this "Operation" gallows humour ? The Yellowhammer is a Red List bird in severe decline in the UK.
Yes it is. 2 world wars and 1 world cup innit. Everyone knows that. We're fair and polite, but when it comes down to it we are not afraid to put Johnny Foreigner back in his box when he's getting a bit rowdy.
I wonder what the odds are on us invading France post-Brexit, as a sort-of morale-boosting easy win, and a reminder to everyone else that this is our world. As long as the rest behave themselves they will be fine, but step out of line and we'll sort them out in no time.
Don't forget the customs declaration detailing purchases made in EU countries. With an English translation of any receipts in cyrylic script. We can compare prices paid for trinkets/essential medecines/fresh fruit whilst queueing for the non EU passport control. Delete fresh fruit. That would be smuggling.
But what joy comparing passport stamps. The Italians will have long thin ones with tiny writing like their old car number plates, Germans a full page in Gothic script with lots of numbers/multiple stamps, UK...just a short begging note-type stamp for exiting foreigners along the lines of "hurry back soon, we need you in the NHS but don't tell Nigel"
Corbyn refused to support remain at the time of the referendum, and something has happened to him since then. He's not the same fella, maybe he's been nobbled? Regarding a trade deal with the EU of course we will get one, it's in the EU's interest to have one, but at the moment it's a psychological tool being used against us to try and make us stay. The EU will never recover after we leave and they know it. The economics of Germany and China cannot survive the process of de-globalization.
Rubbish. Corbyn supported Remain all through the Referendum campaign - and held more meetings, rallies etc than most of the people who since have accused him of the opposite - including the Lib Dem leader and most of his hostile MPs. He didn't get much press or media coverage for it though - the BBC and print press usually used Tory Remainers in their 'reports'.
Whatever he did or didn't do in that camapign would have made very little difference given the lies, exaggerations, and stunts that dominated the coverage.
Of course he is also a sceptic about the EU - wants reforms - and the roots of that go back to the 1970s and the EEC 'bosses club' referendum. But he has accepted the 'on balance' view of the vast majority of Labour members and trades unions that the EU is a force for progress and good - based mainly on the more recent evolution of laws and standards to protect citizens, workers rights and the environment.
It would be sadly ironic of all those oldies who voted to leave, and we do, then struggle to get their much needed meds and meet their maker so to speak.....I wonder which way they would vote now knowing how useless all the politicians we have in uk and Europe.
