P.K. Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 As I posted previously Barnier gave the Maybot five days to present the UK definitive strategy on the divorce bill, the rights of EU citizens living in the UK and presumably the Irish border. The five days are up so now Davis has to put them on a trowel.... The 60bn bill is just the EU's opening gambit and I would expect that particular pissing contest to drag on and on. The domicile rights issue could be handled quickly and easily were it not for all those who voted Brexit simply to keep out Johnny Foreigner, which is to say most of them. The Irish border issue is only an issue if there are to be trade tarriffs and no free movement of EU citizens. Thursdays press conference should be interesting....

mojomonkey Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 More likely, both parties had wads of paperwork but only one side had got their out on the table at the time the photo call was made. I wouldn't read too much into that photograph. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sigh...... do your own research on the history of " compulsory purchase" , as "Notty" would say "you're embarrassing yourself" JW has explained the current legislation (which you have chosen to reject) There have been many "Housing Acts" over the years giving powers to Local Authorities ........ look them up sunshine , you may learn something. It is evident that you "know" nothing in relation to myself , the historical powers of the "Sanitary Inspector/ Public Health Inspector / Environmental Health Inspector and sadly are unable to comprehend and unwilling to accept that you could ever be wrong ,and think it acceptable to offensively insult and tell lies about anyone who offers a correct précis of the legislation which, for reasons best known to yourself, you reject. Perhaps if you "asked nicely" and generally attempted to be polite you may get somewhere in life . Hope this helps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
