Well no sooner have I posted my post then they come out with this to prove my point EUROPE is poised to slap huge tariffs on British imports despite such a move being likely to ignite a ferocious trade war across the continent. Experts warn the move is distinct “possibility”, but have insisted preventing British goods from entering the EU would lead to catastrophic consequences for the Union.
But surely we are all allies these European Commissioners are so full of ****
Now the pain is going to start
European Union governments have reacted furiously to demands from Brussels for yet more money to plug the blackhole in EU finances left by Brexit.
In plans for the first EU budget after Britain leaves, the European Commission on Wednesday demanded an increase in spending commitments to £1.13 trillion over seven years from 2021. The current budget is about £955 billion.
Leaders from richer EU countries reacted with disbelief to the plans by the EU’s civil service to increase spending despite the estimated loss of up to £13.2 billion a year from Britain.
Meanwhile, leaders the eastern bloc of EU states look set for a bitter row over a proposed 'rule of law' test tied to cash subsidies, revealed by The Telegraph this week.
The spending plans include a £616 million birthday giveaway in free train tickets for 18-year-olds to travel round the EU and feel more European.
So now we are starting to see the true colours of the EU has they start their vindictiveness they stand to lose as much as us if not more from a no deal so let’s just leave

You pose an interesting question there 20. I live near Newcastle now and my mate lives in Middlesbrough, we both voted to leave. Where he lives the majority voted to leave also. He has discovered however that the MP who is supposed to represent the views of the constituents has voted against Brexit!! Clearly not the view of the majority. He confronted this MP at an open forum who refused to answer he they had done this and circumnavigated the question with the usual political bull****. It would appear that quite a few representatives of the people have also done the same thing. I am attempting to research this further and hopefully will be able to get a clear total eventually. They’ve stuffed us mate.
There was a Labour MP from Nottingham on sky this morning who said that when the vote went before Parliament to grant the vote all but one labour MP voted for it.I afraid I have now got to the stage where I will not vote again if they don’t follow through with the mandate given to them in 2016 they keep saying we can’t leave without a deal but we will have a deal it’s called the WTO deal so let’s get in with it and we’ll save 39 billion
