Leadsom admits uncertainty over post-Brexit environmental laws

[bobk]

Personally I don't think trade deals will be too onerous ...... unless the govt impose a non freedom of movement for eu nationals ... if this happens we're f**ked

 

[RobFZS]

Still only takes one to stamp there feet at the last minute we will only have two years. I do hope your right tho, I think they will sell everything to keep the city trading. Do you fancy compulsory German cars and French food with a conveyor belt of Eastern Europeans.

you say it like it's a punishment

 

[More to life]

you say it like it's a punishment

We don't agree but that made me laugh out loud

Another good Guy Smith quote:

Peter Melchett: I agreed with Guy when he said that we will need to look at what is happening in terms of public support for farming industries around the world that we are in competition with, not just in the EU, how they value public goods if they are paying for them. For example, in Switzerland, organic farming is reckoned to be worth not £65 a hectare, which we get for an arable organic farm here in terms of the public good delivered, but about £220 or more. For Norway, it is £900 or more. We will need to look at what our competitors outside the EU are doing in terms of supporting public goods, and it would be helpful if we responded to the Norwegian example in terms of organic anyhow.

Guy Smith: I would add that it is not just organic farmers in Norway that get large state support. It is all farmers. When we used to hear that Norway had been put up as a good example of what will happen to the UK going forward, there was a happy cheer that went up, but I very much doubt the British Treasury will be equally joyful about that prospect.


Yeah - no prizes for that one, the British treasury that is going to have to find the cash to support all the Nissan workers that won't have jobs because the Qashqui production is going to move to Europe are really really going to find extra in the overdraft to support farming on a like for like basis - aren't they????

My apologies, I am going to have to leave this thread, the people elected to rule us have no vision beyond 5 years and they don't even realise this is a problem and this annoys me that the public can be led like sheep to a promise of greener grass when they simply haven' a clue as to the solution, In recompense they sound good - well no sh!t.

Not good enough for me. Lions led by donkeys.

So basically the main reason most people voted out, will be over riden to secure trade deals.

Can't see us getting dip sh!t without it.

 

[Muck Spreader]

Remind me again, what exactly were people voting out for? To get our country back, to teach Cameron a lesson, to give the NHS more money, to stop EU migrants taking all our money and jobs, to allow GUTH to poison his fields.

Well it succeeded in one of them.

The only double standards involve remainers who can't accept the will of the people.

Find a quote where I said that.

 

[Will Blackburn]

Find a quote where I said that.

But I believe you can't be a remainer?

 

[JohnGalway]

But I believe you can't be a remainer?

You're not making sense

 

[Will Blackburn]

You're not making sense

Which way did you vote?

 

[JohnGalway]

Which way did you vote?

Look at my location.

You haven't pointed to a quote of mine where I said the Brexit vote can't be let stand, still waiting for that. Distraction doesn't work with me

No vote no representation. I have a view on the Scottish vote, but then should my taxation should give me one? Let sleeping dogs lie I say!

I take it you won't answer my question because you can't.

 

[Will Blackburn]

Brexiteers bang on (and on, and on, and on) about the market getting what it wants, with one exception. That is when it comes to the EU being the market. Double standards to fit the argument.

You stated double standards here, certainly not my soya, so why are you making the double standards accusations personal. Don't send your beef here!

That wasn't the question, will take it you can't back up your statement so.

If you care to read back I stated remainers double standards, now if you are plural please accept my apologies for my miss accusation.

Might want to listen to today's news

"After assurances from the UK government"

Report didn't detail the assurances though

It was "support and assurances" the government supplied Nissan.

How much support was also not disclosed.

So we don't know how much money Nissan will receive to subsidise their car assembly in the currently united kingdom.

We don't know how much more they'll receive when the EU imposes import duties on cars once the currently united kingdom is no longer part of the free trade market.







At least this adds weight to the Brexit supporters who believe that the currently united kingdom's agricultural industry will be able to compete in the market without agricultural subsidies when the rest of the EU still receive them.......

Oh no, wait, errrrr, Nissan has obtained undisclosed "support and assurances"......

Bugger.
