  1. Very simplistic view of the problem, don't you see that in these extraordinary times without support "they" could very quickly become "our " problem?
  2. Prince Andrew is hoping it will be extended to the UK.
  3. So, not closing the border then.
  4. Shouting close the borders is all very well but what are legitimate UK citizens supposed to do? Are they not allowed back into their own country? These are pretty extraordinary times, I don't think the UK Government can be blamed (at least not yet).
  5. Yes, if it is one of the leased ones. As I understand it, Flybe had a mix of owned planes and leased planes.
  6. BBC reporting that IoM Government has impounded that Flybe plane.
  7. The video on this news story is pretty good, not perfect, but pretty good. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-51803890
  8. Sadly, that's fake. FAKE NEWS!!!!!!
  9. US trading halted, Trump going into Twitter meltdown.
  10. What was her policy, I was too young to be actively interested when Thatcher was in charge.
  11. He probably will be by the time final candidates are decided but at the moment you are wrong by 35 years!
  12. Grrr, it's always the French! I blame the EU.
  13. Sad that they have finally gone but its been coming for years. As far as I am aware the problems stem from an ill conceived expansion plan that saw them purchasing too many planes, they were then left flying too many unviable routes.
  14. In which case it was missing a full stop and the capitalisation of let's. We send the EU £350 million a week let's fund our NHS instead or We send the EU £350 million a week. Let's fund our NHS instead Personally, I don't think they were promising £350 million a week to the NHS but poor sign writing/grammar does make it ambiguous. The campaigns of both sides were not great.
  15. Of course it doesn't but presumably even you would accept that it could have been read that way?
  16. Not this one again. Direct and indirect lies and false statements were made by both sides in the referendum campaign but that's the exact slogan on the bus. One would have to be rather arrogant not to accept that it might be read as giving the NHS 350 million every week. At best it is ambiguous (perhaps deliberately).
  17. What exactly do you expect? There is no way that they'll stop it, it'll be a case of simply waiting for it to past or hopefully developing an immunisation.
  18. All you have linked to is the wording of Johnson's short statement. Apart from telling you to wash your hands it doesn't actually say much. Presumably detailed plans are to follow.
  19. Na, the UK are being dicks and the EU are being dicks. Doesn't really matter, the rich in the EU and the UK will continue to prosper. If anyone actually thinks the likes of Johnson, Gove, Barnier and von der Leyen care for anyone other than themselves and their mates then they are naive in the extreme.
  20. That works both ways though, it just demonstrates that both sides are belligerent.
  21. I think that RANDOM capitalisation that makes a post REALLY pop.
