What alex said, I didn't think it answered the question. And as it was a specific question to Cat from alex, and Cat's reply was specifically addressed to alex, I stayed out of it...

From the BBC...Theresa May has told MPs attempting to delay Brexit that it would not "solve the situation"... says Theresa May who recently delayed the process by a month. What have we done to deserve this shower of shite...

Try saying that to the Windrush Generation. On the subject of ''can't control the EU component'' in your response to snowy, there is something called the '3-month directive' which allows EU member states to repatriate EU nationals after 3 months if they have not found a job or do not have the means to support themselves. For some reason successive Govs haven't used it. Since the referendum non-EU immigration, which incidentally was more than EU immigration pre-ref, has increased further, while EU immigration has dropped. The UK economy relies heavily on immigration and the reality of ''taking back control of our borders'' will actually be replacing an EU immigrant with a non-EU immigrant, yet Leave voters were led to believe it meant lowering immigration per se. As I've mentioned before, for Brexiters immigration 'control' was simply a convenient stick with which to beat the EU...

To be fair Cat, as you yourself posted earlier, you do have 'other options' to remain here should FOM end, with those safety nets you weren't really voting against your own self-interest...

Cat, apologies for getting it wrong about your EU citizenship, what a tangled web you weave...:)

Mr Corbyn is being found out. His six tests for a Brexit plan are rightly dismissed as impossible to meet. His demand that the?prime minister take no-deal off the table rings hollow when he refuses to throw his weight behind a viable alternative. He is starting to look like just another politician gambling with people?s lives for his?own advantage. Part of an excellent piece in the FT...https://www.ft.com/content/a88bcee2-1d5d-11e9-b2f7-97e4dbd3580d

Exactly, it's nothing to do with the now withdrawn cost (that's +?400m down the swanny in admin costs by the way), it's the principle of asking them to register in the first place, and the consequences if they don't should we Brexit...

From today, people who have lived in the UK working and paying taxes, some for decades, some having married UK citizens and having UK children, are losing their right to stay here in their homes, with their friends/families, and have to apply and pay for "settled status" or risk being deported after Brexit. How long before we hear a policeman in the street asking to see someone's 'papers'. I hope you're proud of yourselves Leave voters...

Don't assume anything, you will be responsible if it's wrong, not them...

HP, that all relates to Building Regs, Sue is concerned about planning permission which is a separate issue. This Gov guide states that 'rebuilding' comes under development that requires permission... https://www.gov.uk/guidance/when-is-permission-required That then begs the question is what Sue's doing rebuilding or simply a repair? It always pays to call the planners and discuss, and if they say PP is not needed, get it in writing...

I regularly look at Roland's account to get a Leave voters' perspective on the mess, someone who actually understands the complexities of Brexiting rather than jingoistic sloganeering. He's said for a while that May's deal would die and that Brexit, like concepts often do, had failed. In Dec he started advocating for revoking A50 (see his pinned tweet). Sounds extreme and would anger the Brextremists, but I think it would be worth offering this option to Parliament as one of the options as to how we get out of this mess. Although I would welcome revoking A50, doing that alone would give the Brextremists ammunition to say Brexit had been stopped, the 'will of the people' thwarted etc, so rather than just revoking A50 it could have the proviso that Leavers go away and sort out exactly what type of Brexit they want, provide actual solutions to issues, not wishful thinking e.g. the Irish border. They can take as long as they need, then whatever they come up with, have a 2nd ref on it against remaining...

You can put in what is known as a 'hit and miss' staircase, takes up less room than a traditional flight of stairs and meets with Building Regs, which you will need... https://spiralstairs-direct.co.uk/space-saver-loft-stairs/mini-plus-space-saver-loft-staircase-light-beech.html?gclid=EAIaIQobChMI0JjMpsX63wIVKLftCh1IRQQdEAQYASABEgKWlfD_BwE

I reckon that's worth 5 bonus points... :)

Just joined, thanks for setting up. Who's Joe? I'm presuming your Aunt Ursula looks much younger than her age, so I will guess 90...
