    Fun thing is, the same written statement that claims the information hasn't been collated into something resembling a structured paper also tries to justify hiding the very same information from us:
    "...there are a number of reasons why the Government believes that it would not be in the public interest for elements of the analysis, at least, to be released into the public domain".

    So they are saying that someone somewhere has totally done their homework, but they are unwilling to divulge any information relating to it.

    Even first graders have better excuses:lol:

    Love it. "It wouldn't be in the public interest to reveal the position of the UK." Except that just saying that reveals how screwed the UK is.

    Wasn't it Ross who said it was basically the duty of American/European companies to **** the UK over...

    EDIT: Close - Brexit is a ‘God-given opportunity’ to steal trade from UK: Wilbur Ross

    Sure sounds like a guy with whom you'd want to do a deal with...

    Larry ate them. See, he laid out all of them neatly and took a photo before committing the crime.

    Sooo... This begs the question how David Davis can therefore claim to be ready to hold trade negotiations with the EU27 without already having information which is accessible and informative.

    I would like to think he has got a poker face on and is not showing his hand.. but this is Davis

    Tbh he's just bluffing and really really bad at it...

    I thought this was a bit interesting however:

    We are supposedly happier after Brexit according to the ONS - not that you'd know it?

    Only in England. I guess the majority of Leave voters feel really happy... for now. :worried:

    Try living in London. The only time anyone is happy is after 2 gin & slims or when they get a seat on the District Line in the morning.

    I love London, but I wouldn't want to live there nowadays. It is crazy busy (and anyway, the only accommodation I could afford there would be a cardboard box under a bridge. And it would be a small box, under not even one of the swankier bridges).

    DD probably knows what he wants, and therefore in his world he's ready for talks. He probably hasn't considered the other party in the negotiation might want something too. It's the cake and eat it mentality.

    Larry's been setup! :grin:

    Larry has offered his resignation, stating that his behaviour was below the high standards expected from a feline in the responsible position of mouser at no. 10 Downing Street.

    Insiders suggest that Boris Johnson may be considered to replace him, although there are doubts that he lacks the required competencies and experience to hold this post.

    Surprise surprise, except totally not a surprise, our lovely government finds itself marred in even more trouble:

    Thats because Patel has always been a self serving know-it-all who has a history of going 'off book'.

    Offering UK Government money to parts of Israel that the UK doesn't actually consider 'Israel' is always going to end up with someones head well and truely on the block.

    As much as the current Governement is arseing up left-right-and-centre, this one isn't on them, its on Patel.
