Brexit hasn't even happened yet. I'm still waiting to hear of one potential tangible benefit of Brexit. Anyone?

Really. I'd noticed his unusual absence in this thread. Something must have pee'd him off elsewhere.

Nige has been doing his LBC radio show this morning.

Well done to RC on retaining his title. 3rd time in 4 years I think! Excellent tactic from Mick Mac and Jack on how to avoid this week's wooden spoon. Round 5 Final Table

Wasn't Paddy Welsh? I like this cartoon from the Irish Times today...

Won't be any complaints about watering the pitch then!

And Wales approached the 6 Nations executive as opposed to Ireland, when the norm is to ask the opposing team.

Final round tomorrow and a chance for a few to make some bold predictions maybe? Fixtures are: Italy v France 12.30 Wales v Ireland 14.45 England v Scotland 17.00

May can have a 3rd MV or even a 4th, but she must respect the will of the British people from 3 years ago. Yeah right. Corbyn playing silly buggers with two weeks to go. What does he hope to achieve? He should be supporting a 2nd referendum as was agreed at the Labour conference.

No time to read that currently, but on what basis is the extension granted?

Wonder will May resign when defeated tonight? She should do.

The ironic thing about the DUP's influence which means there can be no 'border' in the Irish Sea, is that by all accounts the majority in NI have no issue with that as it removes the problem of the potential land border on the island and is likely to benefit its economy by it having 'special status'.

It looks like a 3 horse race if lady gooner will excuse the expression.

It's close at the top. Round 4 Leaderboard

I think Ireland could beat Wales. I don't think Scotland can beat England.

I can't justify something when I don't know how it's broken down. One thing I'm sure of is that includes Farage's pension. You don't pay tax Keano?

Money,borders and laws is the PMs mantra.If you've ever had a breakdown of where your taxes have been spent, the amount on the EU is miniscule. Borders...UK chose not to implement laws regarding EU citizens already in place. Immigration is larger from outside EU anyway. Laws, oh yeah...bananas.

Mick,you haven't given up yet I hope.

People were told they would be much better off by leaving the EU, thereby blaming the EU for the inequality of wealth in the country.

If was near the pub, it was near the island. It's quite possible to park legally there but in my experience it's not a wise thing to do, as it doesn't leave much space for vehicles to get by. I've actually had a car written off there. I'm pretty sure I told our councillor about this but nothing has happened.

Presumably there's some special formula being used by the current leader? Round 3 Leaderboard

Round 3 fixtures (a bit early but I may not get a chance later) Saturday France v Scotland 14.15 Wales v England 16.45 Sunday Italy v Ireland 15.00 Might be a bit late with the update..

Robert Peston expects 4 Tories to join the Independents today.
