what a mess the commons are in. its a disgrace that the people who we elected and are our representatives in the HOC are all running around pointing fingers, slagging and blaming each other. its turning into a 'pub brawl'. these people are supposed to be civilised, caring and upstanding members of our society to whom we look upon for guidance in troubled times but instead we have elected monkeys who are fighting over a banana. the public dont have much faith in politicians as it is without them resorting to this kind of bickering.

Isn't amazing the damage a referendum can do? They are never a good idea for any politician!

the best of the best azzhole award has to go to Farage with the speech in the EP gloating about 'not laughing now' then went on to basically call them a bunch of work shy individuals but still wants a good relationship for trade (good luck with that one now)..... yeah like you've ever done a hard days work Nigel. having said that i do admire Farage for having ballzz.

Watch closely and you see the man behind him laughing. The more Farage talks the more the man laughs.

Not going to get into airing my political views, but I hardly think someone gloating in the European Parliament about our exit from EU is going to make companies like BMW think "screw the UK, we won't sell them cars any more"

Germany exports €89billion worth of product to the UK 'v' €39billion of exports from the UK to Germany. I agree with you, and the German car manufacturers have already lobbied the EU for no tariffs.

I will concede that Farage should learn about being as gracious in victory as defeat though!!

So our negotiations should look to achieve a similar agreement to Norway but with the EU giving us a payment for access to our market. We need some strong politicians.
BTW I'm not joking, as far as trade is concerned the EU needs us more than we need them.
