Reality has dawned on Varadkar, and Ireland is now bricking it in case of a No Deal Brexit: The Government will seek hundreds of millions of euro in special aid from Brussels if the UK crashes out of the EU without a deal. Dublin has already alerted the EU Commission that it will be lobbying for emergency aid to cope with the fallout to Irish trade, particularly for the beef, dairy ...
I see May has been telephoning Merkel to plead for concessions in order to get her treasonous deal through parliament. When it comes to these negotiations it is always Merkel calling the shots, never the Dutch, Spanish or any of the other leaders of EU member states. Which just about sums up what the EU is all about. ...
Every year for the last 14 or so years I have helped out with the mock interviews for Dawlish Community College with the Rotary. I go into to them each year wondering what the quality of interviewees will be as the preceeding year has been good - each year I'm incredibly proud of our young people.

The difference is Trump only has limited time in power unlike the EU and it's cronies.
The EU Commission recently rejected Italy's 2019 budget for breaking EU fiscal rules, the Italian government had to do a climbdown and submit a new budget. A couple of weeks later Macron produced the French budget which similarly breaks the rules, yet is allowed to get away with it. The EU continually states it is a rules based organisation, except when those rules are inconvenient for favoured ...
"It only takes one person to stand up to a bully". So the UK will stand up to that bully who is presently in the White House?
It only takes one person to stand up to a bully and then the others will have the courage to stand together and demand their rights are respected or they will leave. You can only persecute people for so long before they fight back and this is what is happening in the EU already, ask the Greeks, Italians, Polish and Hungarians who are worst affected both legally and fiscally.
