So BoJo announces a deal is agreed, which is essentially the first one offered by the EU, which Theresa May rejected.

The DUP have announced they can't support it, which is where many of the ERG 'spartans' will presumably take their lead.

No doubt BoJo will spin this as some sort of huge achievement, when it's quite the opposite, and represents a massive climbdown for him.

If there's to be any hope of moving the whole thing forward, surely the logical thing for MPs to now do is make it subject to a confirmatory referendum with Remain as the other option and ratify it on that basis.  Given that a GE appears imminent, then they could time it to hold both the GE and the referendum at the same time.

The referendum can’t happen until March at the earliest & this government needs a GE sharpish.

It needs one for it's own selfish purposes, not in the national interest as to what's best for the UK.

Provided that the confirmatory referendum is locked in statute I don't really care if a GE takes place beforehand, but the most logical solution is to have them at the same time.

Out of intrigue, have you resigned your Tory party membership yet?

Why is another Referendum "best for the UK"?

Surely you are inviting so many people with zero knowledge or real interest to be involved in the process which makes no sense?

Similar for the bridge inside castle mall shopping centre
I’ve never been in to see it in it’s glory
It was a hole in the ground

Thanks Tony.

We never went in the Shopping Centres, we tend to avoid them in favour or exciting stuff such as castles (Norwich), prisons (Exeter), and of course Airports.  

We spent as few hours at Heathrow last week & I took a bunch of photos of incoming aircraft. If anyone would like to see them you only have to ask. I've got loads of them.

You must’ve seen the new A350 Tony. Haven’t been on one yet, but it gets great reviews.

I’ll endeavour to get you a pic of one - unless, of course, the pic only counts if you’ve taken it?

Fly one to Tel Aviv a couple of weeks ago.

Only Premium Economy, but felt like Business Class in every respect bar the full recline, but still a further recline than in other PE experiences.

Think I can't quite grasp is that surely people using the London Underground to commute is about as eco-friendly as it gets, there's surely no "greener" way to commute to work in London except walking or cycling, which is just not viable in many cases.

Exactly this.

Eco warriors telling us to use public transport to lower the carbon footprint then trying to delay/halt said mode of transport.

Well done you fkin idiots, really helping your cause aren't you?!

Sometimes you feel a post deserves its own special place, despite us having threads on a subject it may be related to.

I think Mr Hamilton, who has the world at his feet and more money to make the rest of his life totally wonderful, has posted what can only be called a Drama Queen rant.

If he was really that bothered, he would distance himself from a sport with a terrible carbon footprint, he can afford to. But No. He would rather go on Soch Media and stamp his feet, telling the rest of us to change our lives, while he carries on raking it in and polluting the planet.

Go Lewis, you hypocrite.....


No doubt more entries as we draw closer to seeing what Brexit truly brings!

3/1 now and according to the bookies just the mighty Coolmore to worry about!

As low as 2-1 now with Billy.

Have traded out the half of the bet I placed to trade, so now freerolling a decent profit and a small profit already banked even if they do switch tracks, which I think would be pretty filthy if they do.

Reading on Twitter that the talks have broken down, incidentally the day after DUP visited Downing Street.

Where?

He just makes shit up.

We have all seen it.

It’s very ironic that England supporters & team was pointed out with racists abuse.

Yet many leave voters voted Brexit because of the colour of their skin.

2 of my British Indian colleagues voted leave, you being the expert what is it about them being brown that made them vote leave?

Maybe Aarongry is suggesting it was the Bulgarians that voted for Brexit.  Who knows?

Just more unwelcome and unnecessary comments that have to be tolerated by all of us here, sadly.

Someone should sort it.

I wouldn’t get into the argument about my comments when you agree with the leave eu poster.

But I do enjoy you trying to get me a ban. It’s quite cute. Perhaps concentrate on you not getting another holiday.

Its a ban of sorts when everyone appears to agree bar the Moderators, who appear more concerned about a swear word rather than intent.

Spotted this yesterday, & it got me thinking.

I'll admit I've never been a Gazza fanboy, and he was certainly bang out of order & un-necessarily mean & rude.

But "sexual assault"? Seems a bit strong. Must be some law "public nuisance" or whatever for which they can give him a slap on the wrists or even Community Service or somesuch? We know he has had a few mental health & addiction issues, it maybe needs to be seen in that context.  

Instead, we have a full-blown trial, jury, the full works, & it's scheduled to last 5 days.

How much public money must all that palaver cost? Bet it's £100,000 if it's a penny (pure guess on my part) by the time the Police time, resource & costs are included, then all the legal fees for solicitors, barristers, & all the legal rigmarole.

For being rude & kissing someone on the lips?

Here he is arriving at Court yesterday.

Good to have you back Sir!!

This is what our society has become now though isn't it? I would guess the money spent on this trial to be in excess of your figure if its over 3 days. What a waste.

And I firmly believe that 90% of our Extinction Rebellion folk, liberal snowflakes and probably Aaron, think this is worthwhile........

Normally I am pretty quick in getting my bets on, but having loaded up 3 horses, I took a works call and never got a chance to enter the stakes.

No more than 4 minutes later, the prices have been chopped on all three.

Ever felt your account may be flagged?

Yes, thank you.

Perhaps you should learn English before you next post, because whilst I have no doubt this is an insult to those who voted Leave the words make no real sense.

Albon 4th a good result.

It would take a bizarre set of results for him to not finish 6th in the championship now. Should come in with ease.

Who were the 6 that could finish ahead, was Ricardo one of them?

It didn't actually specify, however I am assuming the top three teams at the start of the season (so Bottas, Gasly, Hamilton, Leclerc, Verstappen and Vettel). So, not Ricciardo.

Thanks Pete. Good luck

Met two interesting characters at dtd this week.
The head of Waverley racing (has all the good de lope de vega horses at Becketts)
And sheik fahad (Qatar racing).

The sheikh was probably looking to borrow a few quid off you mate.

Get on Addeyebb for the Champion stakes in two weeks. Can't see half the currently quoted field running and he will never go off 10s.

Addeyebb as low as 11/4 but generally 4-1.

Still cant see the other market market leaders turning up, especially as rain due all week, which should suit A more.

Have had a little save on Deidrie at 10s

Albon 4th a good result.
