    Jean-Claude Juncker doesn't seem as hostile as some. Getting the agreement of the national & regional parliamenst will be a major hassle. I'm starting to think we should just default to WTO rules & take things from there: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-39042876

    That is a reasonable stance Lex. As I've said before it's all smoke and mirrors. Simply walk away and the 27 countries will be falling over themselves to seek a deal with the UK. Bottom line here is that they can't afford not to!

    Definitely; I hope Theresa's more of a Maggie than a Tony.

    Spain's got a damn cheek: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-39465631

    And the Brexmoaners & rest of the EU can't understand why we want out.

    This may well backfire on Spain. They aren't exactly in the strongest of financial positions and rely heavily on tourism etc. from the UK. Any future sanctions may well hurt them far beyond what this little 'protest' is worth.

    Regarding our Teresa.Being a remainer she is surely the wrong person to be 'caring' for us in this issue.It is also time the ones in government who voted to stay-just shut up. They spread gloom every time they open their mouths.If they cannot accept the public vote in the referendum, they should go, and stop stirring up trouble.
    Saying they are voicing the needs of the remainers-who cares- it was a fair vote. Putting a spoke in the wheels of the brexit operation to 'prove' that they were right puts peoples backs up. They seem to be saying, Lets keep having a referendum, 'til we get it right. I wouldn't like to toss a coin with any of them--I'd be there all day.
    To Ken Clark and his cronies- please go and take your sourness with you.

    Corbyn is getting out of his tree, leading a revolution now. The man is quite insane!

    I've just seen what he's doing! Jeremy Corbyn is taking us back to a time before we joined the European Community, to prevent us signing up in the first place! And Steven Hawking said it couldn't be done.
