Are you ready for Brexit

Farage was apparently convinced by Boris’ tweet last night saying that the transition period would definitely not be extended into 2020.

I guess if he’d added the phrase ‘come what may’, or ‘I’d rather be dead in a ditch’, Foggage would have smelt a rat and suspected that Boris says all sorts of sh*te if he thinks someone will be impressed....

It all smacks of arrogance, assuming that all the seats that returned a Conservative MP last time will do so again just because they all want to leave the EU. I suspect they will get a bit of a shock, leaving us with another hung parliament, and no further forward/backward.:(

The real reason for Farage’s dramatic U turn is to save face I suspect, as he would look pretty dumb when they have spent lots of time, money and wind, then get no MP’s elected when everyone sees them for the single issue showmen that they are.
Farage refuses to refund his prospective candidate's deposits back...

Don't you understand? People have paid to be candidates. They are being denied the chance so surely their money deposited for this purpose should be returned to them on principle. If you paid a deposit on, say, a sofa, and that sofa was subsequently found to be permanently out of stock, you would surely want your deposit back.

As to Forage trader, if you paid the deposit for the sofa and YOU pulled out of the deal, you would not expect your deposit back. However it was not the depositer who pulls out of this deal, it is Nigel. Any trader who pulled this one would be deemed a crook and I bet that regardless of the terms, which are not meant for this scenario, they would be morally and legally obliged to return the deposit. Or maybe that is how Forage Trader does conduct his business, because he pretends to see nothing wrong with it.

Clearly all the prospective sh*t stirrers/candidates signed up to give a non-refundable deposit, and you would think they’d be happy enough for the £100 to be a donation to the crusade. However, the real story will be the UKIP, sorry Brexit, party falling apart through civil war over what is a petty squabble.
Why anyone with an ounce of sense would vote for them in an election to choose MPs to run this country is a mystery to me. They are one trick ponies that only have half a trick. Boris has the other half, and they seemingly can’t decide whether they love him or loathe him.

But it’s not about buying a sofa, nothing like it, I just don’t see the parallels. Wether we like it or not there isn’t an upcoming general election, there’s another vote on Brexit, what Farage is doing is no different to what some of the parties in favour of remain are doing, I don’t particularly like any of it but it is what it is. Political parties standing aside to give others a better chance ain’t my idea of democracy but it’s happening on both sides, I’d be inclined to give my vote to any party that’s not involved with these shenanigans but that doesn’t give me a lot of choice.

You choose not to see the parallel.

Why would anyone vote for them?
Very simple, a referendum was held on the future of the uk in Europe at which everyone involved was adamant that the result of the referendum would be implemented.
The referendum delivered a result where 17.4 million people voted for leave, 1.3 million more than voted to remain
Following the result of the referendum the prime minister who before the referendum was adamant the result of the referendum would be implemented decided he wanted no part of it and so followed a general election, a general election at which both the main political parties promised in their manifestos to deliver Brexit yet it turns out the vast majority of MPs elected actually favour remain and have not worked towards delivering the will of the people In the referendum or on their manifesto commitments from the last election.
I’m sure those who vote for them are well aware they are one trick ponies and are almost certain to try to deliver on that commitment if elected unlike many MPs from other parties who made that commitment at the last election but failed to deliver on it.

I’m not convinced they’ll get many MP’s, indeed I’m not convinced they’ll get any but I do understand why people will vote for them.

Problem with Boris is that he is a serial liar. Absolutely shameless liar.

Here is Dominic Grieve's view on Boris and why he resigned from the Conservative Party. Hint.. it is because of Boris's perpetual lies.

It cleary says non refundable .
If you put your head in a guillotine, would yoh then complain if it chopped your head off .
Yes, its non refundable if the candidate withdraws, nobody expected farage to pull out

Can’t see that one sided a contract being legal. Just need one of the candidates to test it under the unfair contracts act.
