Independence day

That was long and boring. What's the summary?

That was long and boring. What's the summary?

"I've found an article I agree with, so there. Nyah nayh!! Mummy says I'm a special little soldier."

[Gob]

Bojo gets a prime post!

New Prime Minister Theresa May has made Boris Johnson, the former London mayor who led the Brexit campaign, foreign secretary in her new government.

He replaces Philip Hammond, who becomes chancellor.

Ex-Energy Secretary Amber Rudd is home secretary and Eurosceptic David Davis is the Brexit secretary.

Thanks, Taff. Insightful! As always

[Gob]

That's all the insight one needs on an Aspergers boy post.

[rubato]

Hence the problem.

Anything more complicated than knee-jerk racism is too much for the morons to comprehend.

The UK unemployment total fell by 52,000 to 1.64 million between April and June, official figures have shown.

The UK's unemployment rate remained at 4.9%, the Office for National Statistics (ONS) said.

The ONS figures also showed the number of people on the claimant count in July - the first month since the Brexit vote - was 763,600, down 8,600 from June.

Earnings including bonuses rose 2.4% in the three months to June compared with a year earlier, the ONS said.

Excluding bonuses, earnings growth was 2.3%.

But....but...

You know it's because of brexit. Or climate change. Or ISIS. Or Bush. Or Thatcher. Or Gob.
How about "All of the Above"?
maybe "None of the Above"?

Oh wait I know!
The Republicans caused this.

Need a calendar?

Before Brexit vote and many months before the actual process starts. (Although the UK is dithering about following though with what they said.)

Oh dear, more Aspergerism.

Do you really expect them to have August's unemployment figures before ....errmmmm.... September...?

Now, then , who claimed this was after the Brexit vote?


dear dear dear....

Gob = Fail.

The numbers you present are of zero probative value except to compare with what will happen post-Brexit. In the future. The data was from before the vote and long before Brexit itself, which keeps being delayed. .

So they are of value, as they paint a picture re-Brexit.

Brexit keeps being delayed to ensure it progresses smoothly.

Pardon my French.

The European Union's lead Brexit negotiator wants British and EU officials to work in French rather than English during the divorce talks, an EU official familiar with Brussels' Brexit task force said on Friday.

Pardon my French... work in French rather than English during the divorce talks, an EU official familiar with Brussels' Brexit task force said on Friday.

French has long been established as the language of international finance. This demand may seem unwarranted but it does fit within all business protocols. Brits just like to be stubborn, that's all.

Why don't they compromise and negotiate in Latvian. Everyone happy now?

even if that is the case, the issues of Brexit are more far-reaching than economics, and English is one of the official EU languages. It seems a bit overreaching to me--why not Latvian?

[Bicycle Bill]

Why not German?  After all, the Germans ran most of Europe not just once but twice in the past century.
