Except the EU won't negotiate this until the divorce bill is agreed and the status of EU nationals is agreed. I don't understand what part of that this the government doesn't understand. The EU have consistently stated this from the start. How long is the UK going to wait before discussing these things? They have already wasted almost 5 months and agreed on nothing. But what is very clear, is all the nonsense about no deal being ok really is nonsense that will cost UK business and the economy dear, and the Tories know it.

Just f&cking hurry up tho, as I'm here in Spain trying to get a number of deals done and this Brexshit malarkey is costing me.

Worse still the rest of those doing business here just don't get us, and I don't get us.


It's all very well perambulating when it 'doesn't actually' personally cost you anything. However, the Tory cnuuunts who aren't actually in business dont seem to actually grasp the damage they're inflicting.

Then you are asking for no deal. We are leaving the EU, not the other way round remember. Holding any divorce bill to ransom on a trade deal is only going to piss the EU off. They will never go for it. And you have to remember that any agreement is subject not only to our own parliament, but also the 27 members of the EU parliament agreeing too. Time is running out for getting any of this done. We can not leave it to the 11th hour. Trade agreements are very complex to negotiate in themselves, because every single good or service to be included has to be negotiated. There is no such thing as a free trade deal. CETA, which took ten years to negotiate, excludes a whole raft of things from tariff free trade. Only access to the single market delivers a 100% free trade agreement. And it is the time it takes to negotiate trade deals that is the reason behind the request for a transitional period lasting however many years it takes to get new trade deals in place. The cost to UK business of WTO tariffs is just too high a price to pay.

It's worse than that Blah Blah, regional governments are involved as well (e.g. Belgium). I think at least 34 bodies have to give their half-arsed approval.


That said, I accept it won't be a breeze. However, there's no need for protracted 7-odd years bureaucratic agreements. Forget Junket's air-taxis wheeze. Lock the buggers in a room in a Papal conclave-style negotiation where they don't come out until they've reached agreement and I think you'll find we'll have a deal in a few weeks.

Well, as net contributions are about ?8.6 billion, then we've done that already.

Come on Keano, as much as you write floridly about the situation you do have a history of backing flops.


This Brexit shite you've so wed yourself to is much like the handbag & hampers business you ran and failed with. You spent hours and weeks writing ad's to sell the crap you'd pinned the future on.


So as much as you try and reason and argue the position of Brexit , it'll end in a familiar place of basement sale and horse trading like you've been in before.


Only this time, spare us the effort.

I reckon he thinks he's a bit of a maitn?e idol for the blue rinse brigade, aka the poor man's Des Lynam had someone punched him in the nose. But alas poor Double D, he's going head to head with Michel Barnier, all European suave, charm and sophistication. Only one winner I'm afraid, it won't be long before our Treez throws her knickers in the direction of Brussels...

      Dulwich Gail's bakery will open on Xmas Day in "shameful" move

      By Insuflo · Posted

      I’m not a Gail’s fan but there’s no reason a business shouldn’t open on Christmas Day. However, nobody should be compelled to work the day which, given the widespread coverage of Gail’s questionable employment practices, has to be a possibility here.  The only business I ever use on the 25th is maybe a pub and that’s a rarity these days but buses running would be very welcome for visiting etc. But the swings in the park should definitely remain chained up. Are parks even open on Christmas Day?

      Dulwich Gail's bakery will open on Xmas Day in "shameful" move

      By Dogkennelhillbilly · Posted

      To be honest, pal, it's not good being a fan of a local business and then not go there. One on hand, the barber shop literally next door to Romeo Jones started serving coffee. The Crown and Greyhound and Rocca serve coffee. Redemption Coffee opened up not far away, and then also Megan's next door to that. DVillage was serving coffee (but wasn't very popular), as was Au Ciel (which is). Maybe also Heritage Cheese, I don't know. There's also Flotsam and Jetsam doing coffee and sandwiches at Dulwich Picture Gallery in the other direction. The whole of Dulwich Village serves coffee. And yet on the other hand, there are enough punters to support all good coffee shops. With the exception of Rocca and Megan's (which are both big spaces) and C&G (which does coffee like everything else - slow and with bad service), all these places regularly get queues out the door. Gail's often has big queues and yet very few people crossed the street to Romeo Jones (which was much better)... Half the staff at Gail's are perfectly fine and efficient. The other half are pretty offhand and rude. It's certainly not welcoming or friendly service. But they're certainly hard working, and no doubt raking the money in for Luke Johnson...

      Well according to a newspaper article, Gail’s is opening 10 shops in London,,, yup Dulwich is named 10/5 I seem to recall with others in London opening at 7 am…!, Guess that is to capture workers coming off all night shift. Offering free mince pies until they run out.. So very sad to hear about Romeo Jones… been a customer since the opening, any idea where Patrick has gone or details… please pm me.    What is going to be in its place…. Will be around in Jan…umm village is changing….
