Arf. I characterised my opinion on Ireland as humble. Didn’t make that claim for myself.
After all, I’d be as likely to be as credible as Dylan Jones, piggy Dave biographer, lying on national radio to discredit a Labour leader.
Believe it or not, there are some that are fooled.
Do “Corbin” again. It was so clever and original the first time.
Bless.
I hadn’t heard corbin before, maybe it is Original, or maybe I just thought it was Typo if someone said it before. Is Corbin mean i.e. like Cor bin man? Is it much less clever than i.e. Mayhem? I remember someone saying Jezbollah one time, I wasn’t quite sure what that bout either, but is it more good?
Still not answering the question I see.
Incidentally, I now see why you’re making such an issue of this Corbin/Corbyn thing. Interesting thing, how one can project one’s own insecurities and conspiracies onto what was actually a genuine spelling mistake…
EDIT: I’ll readily admit to being slightly embarrassed by my spelling mistake but your reaction has really been quite amusing. I did think it was a bit excessive for a spelling mistake but now I understand.
‘Bless’, indeed.
I’m not surprised, Bear. Corbyn is phonetically identical to Corbin.
Someone would have to say it, then immediately and proudly proclaim “I spelt it with an I.”
Something I’m sure Bath does 
What about “Bore-bin”? Or “Anti-war-bin”?
Cor bin Laden??
Hang on a minute, are we now allowed to make sweeping generalisations about why people voted ‘out’?
Because last I recall you took umbrage with Brexiteers being stereotyped as racist, bigoted, ill informed fuck-knuckles who fell hook, line and sinker for lies that even Trump would be ashamed to spout.
We’re moving onto phase 2 if the talks.
So was the primacy of the ECJ over EU citizens something that the EU wanted or was it just a negotiating position which they could then concede
Yeah and did you listen to how mayhem say that the UK was given a referendum and neglected to say it was advisory and the Tories ploughed ahead because it was the will of the people? She also neglected to mention all the lies and half truths peddled to get that very slim majority.
As Lord D would say, what a pile of pony…
Anyway, enjoy, the next stages are going to be worse.
Actually I think there have been some pragmatism by the EU here. The last thing they want is to sink Mays government. If it is just May, then they may get a Brexit hardliner running the show. If the Tory government toppled, then everything is back up in the air again.
I always thought the best way to determine the will of the people is to hold a referendum.
Referendums are fine @cb-saint no dispute.
But to have one that is just a simple in / out and not provide people with balanced information from all perspectives is suspect
Ffs the Govt have played the elector ate for fools and won
No idea how I got that quote box btw…
They didnt though - the govt at the time - Cameron and Osbourne - wanted the exact opposite
The the Govt played the electorate for fools and lost. More the fool them
Should we be worried by Martin Schultz’s (former European Parliament President and now leader of the SDP) comments about having a Federal Europe by 2025?
Why be worried?
It’s none of our business what they choose to do.
I wonder how long it’ll take for this to unravel.
I’ve already seen loads of Remainers saying that like the Northern Irish, they want to remain EU citizens too. Sturgeon and pals will be kicking off about it in due course, if they’re not already.
Seriously Pap, if many remainers had this option,it moight help with a more unified approach - there is something that many of us felt was great in being classified as EU citizens with the freedoms to work abroad, and although there is still ways to do this, its much more complicated. As mentioned elsewhere ,I would gladly pay the £264 a year fee to retain my EU citizenship and if its fine the Norn Iron? I can see that being challenged in the courts as a class action on behalf of English, Scots and Welsh remainers demanding the same right… and to be honest it woudl not be unreasonableif this is granted to the NI
If as an EU citizen I was guarranteed to rights to stay asI have was born here and have lived her the vast majority of my life, I would give up British citizenship for EU status… being 50% EU its not such a big deal anyway
