I'm just waiting for the remain side to start claiming that Blair's intervention is just another example of unfair pro-Brexit tactics. :D

I think that if there's to be any rising up, it's the people to drag Bliar out of his hiding place and parade him through the streets in sackcloth and ashes to a richly deserved beheading. There's plenty of spikes in traitors cloister just begging to have heads on them. :D

Meanwhile more good Brexit news:

Quote:
FAMILY shopping bills could plummet after Britain leaves the EU, it was revealed yesterday.

Hundreds of pounds a year may be wiped off the cost of a household’s food and clothing, the study by Brexit campaign Leave Means Leave reports.
Brexit could decrease food prices by hundreds of pounds a year, campaigners believe

Savings would come as tariffs on a wide range of goods imported from outside Europe — also booze, electrical items and cars — are AXED.

The food and drink gains include tasty treats from lamb chops and fresh prawns to prosecco, wine, strawberries and honey. But the potential bonanza goes beyond grub.

John Longworth, of Leave Means Leave, said: “Britain will be able to secure free-trade deals with the rest of the world and get better prices for British families when they shop for food and drink, clothes, cars and electrical goods. The EU has been incompetent at securing free-trade deals with the rest of the world so Brexit offers a huge opportunity.”

Just like Brexiteers, who complain about Remain voters 24/7.

Sore winners.. ;)

Well we've had Blair crawling out from under his stone so it wasn't going to be long before Mandelson did likewise.

These people typify the Eurocrats who refuse to listen to anything they don't want to hear. They're only interested in democracy when it yields what they and they want.

24/7? Is that a fact? :)

By and large it's not Brexiteers who're continually challenging and questioning the process parliament agreed to and it's not Brexiteers who're claiming the other side didn't know what they were voting for. We're just responding to those who are so there's a lot to be done. ;)

Unfortunately for you I'm not a sore winner and I do take time off as I know it's going to happen no matter what.

I don't feel the need to to put forward suggestions like "soft Brexit" as I know it doesn't exist under the terms of A50. But then again I'm not clutching at straws, I'm quite happy.

I'd also be quite happy for a transition period if that will make remoaners happy, it's the nearest they'll get to "soft Berxit".

Let's hope things don't turn out this way. Google the headline for full article.

EU negotiators push back on Brexit trade talks until next year
Quote:
The EU’s Brexit negotiators expect to spend until Christmas solely discussing Britain’s divorce from the bloc, denying London any trade talks until progress is made on a €60bn exit bill and the rights of expatriate citizens.
A narrow divorce-first approach favoured by Michel Barnier, the EU’s chief negotiator, would represent a big setback for Britain’s aim for a fast-track EU trade deal, completed by the end of 2018.

Re: UK Exit of EU (Brexit)
 
Article 50 rules out any soft break away and as for a transitional agreement that's a dead duck too because the whole 27 nations of the EU will not agree to it, like it or not hard brexit is what will happen and i have no confidence any agreement will be reached because of internal issues in the EU. Before anyone asks or suggests i voted leave on the basis of the above and that it would create problems for the UK for the next 5-10 years after leaving the EU. Recent things have changed my mind on the period of hardship for the UK and I'm still very happy with my leave vote and am now more confident of a more prosperous future for the UK outside of the EU.

A bit misleading as May wanted rights of expats to be decided now (not just UK ones either).

The trade talks they refer to are only those with the EU and will hurt them perhaps more than us.

Your pessimism knows no bounds.

I've not written the article, I've just provided a link to it as it looks like an important development. As Papa Smurf would say, such articles don't necessarily represent my views.
