How many of you would defect?
I’d be flashing my EU passport about like I’d won a gold medal and be on the next boat.
 
Boris Johnsons brother became a director of Dyson 2 weeks before the government awarded them a contract worth £250,000,000.

That was lucky eh !
 
Send hundreds of thousands of working class to their deaths 👍
Bet your grandmother was running ‘round giving out white feathers to 15 year olds back then.
 
This is a gift for Boris from the French.
Now he can rally the flag shaggers.
Maggie showed with the Falklands that a govt can shaft the working class and still win a landlside by having a little mini war to distract.
 
I don’t want to get into any pathetic ‘you started it’ ‘no, you started it’. But what a dreadful comment on the current state of politics in the UK and France .. even 10 years ago what is happening today would have seemed like a (not very funny) comedy sketch. The whole thing is f***ing ridiculous from start to finish .. and I can easily believe there is worse to come!
 
5 months in and gunboats in the channel

Brexit - The gift that keeps giving
 
At the heart of this dispute is the fact that French fishermen have for years, contrary to the previous agreement, not recorded their catch or days fished in Jersey waters so now cannot comply with the terms of the fisheries agreement negotiated between the UK and the EU to obtain the necessary licences.

The French should really take it up with the eu if they have a problem.

No no no Lonesome, it's all Boris' fault please stay with the script
 
No they're not, as has been said on here the rules are the rules, it's just not on script if it's not the UK suffering for it

As part of the Brexit process it was agreed the French could continue fishing as before but would need new licenses. When they went to Jersey for the licenses they weren't what had been agreed. Seems like you're following the anti-French script.
 
No, the fact they'd been ignoring the rules for years doesn't mean they could continue doing it.

Seems like you're following the Bash Britain script

Nothing to do with Bash Britain. You refuse to hear anything said against this Govt. and doff your cap at every opportunity. The French had an agreement in place for a long time to fish the waters off Jersey, nothing to do with doing what they liked.

That number looks rather high, are you sure it's correct? And in any case wasn't the contract cancelled and Dyson wasn't actually paid anything - they said they had absorbed the costs of their R&D. (I'm assuming you are talking about ventilators btw.)

While I'm at it, Johnson's appointment was to some sort of training outfit, not to the main Dyson company. I assume they thought he would have something to contribute as among other things having been a minister of higher education.

l think its correct that figure. Whatever title his job is it stinks like all the others. I'm sure there's going to be some massive court cases soon.

At the heart of the dispute is the fact that Jersey unilaterally added new conditions to applying for licenses without notifying the EU (or UK) ahead of time, in clear breach of the EU-UK TCA.
Jersey of course isn't actually in the UK, but is treated as such for trading purposes.
