Asking the biggest EU fan on earth to undermine the EU itself sure makes sense, Prime Minister.
Remember when Macron won the election he played Ode to Joy to walk out to.
I'm not denying this, the whole thing is incredibly stupid.

7 months in they're still trying to convince EU leaders to sabotage the EU position.

Edit read it all wrong
By definition voting to Leave the EU already confirmed to the world 52% of the electorate has no awareness of anything at all.
Maybe Theresa May thinks that the Mrs Doyle method of negotiating will work and Merkel or Macron will eventually concede and sabotage the EU and their credibility to appease Britain if she's persistent enough.

"Brexit OT(n+1) - Just farm HARDER"
Can't wait for the postmortem report of the EU dinner, though. Last time Juncker called her delusional and gave her some printed out treaties by the bucketload to impress upon her just how much work goes into those. I wonder, will he bring a flip chart this time? "My first Brexit - a twelve-slide adventure into the wonderful world of EU and U. Please take notes, there will be a quiz afterwards - and the winners get candy!"
Juncker and Barnier at least get a full dinner out of being courted. Macron only gets a hasty phone call. I would have thought she'd try to appeal to a Frenchman with yummy food, like dunno, a basket of British delicacies, or during a tea time afternoon snack with cake, but nah, who ever heard of attacking a man through his stomach.

Because it's the equivalent of an estate agent valuing your house at 100k one month and 80k the next.
It's still the same house and the chances are it's still worth 100k, who knows until you actually try to sell it.
Smacks of a propaganda exercise tbh.

Bloody luxury, road kill and whatever you found in the bushes was good enough for people in my day.
Actually it is how this stuff works.

You're a big guy.
How does Grayling keep getting government jobs? He is a damagingly stupid.
So who will you blame when (not if) it won't?
Hello, my ami. I would je voudrais you to convincer the other EU leaders to do exactly what you've said you wouldn't do all this time. Because that makes sense. N'est-ce pas?
While we're at it, you want some of the finest export products the prosperous UK economy has to offer? British cake?
You are openly going after the German Wörkforce with benefits like that. Add on a free beer per extra work hour (past the 50th per week), and half of us will swim over and try to apply for citizenship.
Also, obligatory.
Currently on 2k posts... I think this thread will be our permenant grave.

"Brexit OT4| It's time for the British to end"?
Honestly can't see any light at the end of this tunnel atm...

You still haven't explained your previous posts

You want to engage in a discussion you actually have to stand by your statements and respond to people's points, not just do drive-bys and then bail when called on it.
Just like the country then!

Huh.
That wouldn't happen to be the same Chris Grayling who in the beginning of 2016 stated the negotiations would easily be painless and a deal would be done in a relatively short time, who is now saying today that we all knew this was going to be a long and tough negotiation period and that no deal was always the most likely outcome?
That same Cunt?
If what won't?
The UK has a couple of billion trade deficit a month with Germany alone.
A deal will be done. They'll all put a show on to show the electorate how hard they are fighting but none the less, a deal will be done.
I'm not particularly worried if it isn't done tbh,but I'm looking mid to long term and not graph to graph.
Every act of diplomacy ever involved diplomats being diplomatic.
I can't get the Holy Grail out of my head.
Brexit OT4 'Tis but a scratch!
Brexit OT4 Look, you stupid bastard. You've got no arms left!
Brexit OT4 All right, we'll call it a draw.
Brexit OT4 It's just a flesh wound.
Brexit OT4 None shall pass.
Brexit OT4 I command you, as King of the Britons, to stand aside!

"Hello Macron, please spend political capital undermining Barnier and the EU negotiating position that all remaining member states signed off on and in the process torpedo the EU reforms you proposed recently. Go on, go on, go on, go on, go on."
No that doesn't work.
Sure enough:
Wah wah wah.
People buying German cars and high quality German engineering products will continue to do so. The Germans will actually be ok. We want their shit and there is no substitute for their shit that will not have the same exact tariff. So having a trade deficit with Germany is not a point of actual leverage. That is not how that works. Not that you'd understand, you have demonstrated on numerous occasions your tenuous grip on reality.
Obvious troll is obvious. Please explain:
"Apart from North Korea maybe every money spends the same as any other."
instead of shitting up the thread.

This move is like Trump announcing that he's trying to negotiate trade deals with EU states one by one.
That isn't how it works. You can't circumvent the EU itself.

All of them made me laugh quite a bit.
As a portuguese it makes me really sad UK is going out of the EU.
So as I expected, this was a cap in hand visit to say 'we are fucked unless we can tell parliament something'
and there it is........... 'accelerate' ...........learn it well folks as that is all you are going to hear for the next 12 hours, it will be trotted out by every Tory who can squeeze in front of a camera...
The EU agreed to 'accelerate'. I am convinced more than ever that the UK is about to capitulate on the amount of money we will pay if they can use it as a 'trade deal' fee to cover up the head explosions from Brexit MP's

Thats not what this is about - at all. For the love of god please read some actual informed commentary on this, rather than parrot gibberish talking points. Its not as bad as the telegraph headline makes out, but its not good and its not as simple or dumb as you make it out to be.
Also, the pro-brexit Telegraph taking part in anti-brexit propaganda? The newspaper thats been making a living off EU disaster porn for the last 5 years? What the hell are you smoking that leaves you thinking the *Telegraph* is anti brexit? What next, the Daily Express?
In collusion with the ONS no less.
Ah, I see. The old its not going to happen stupid sheeples, but even if it doesnt Im not bothered because in my wisdom Im gazing at the stars to see the future.
What a load of condescending tripe. The fact you can be objectively wrong, multiple times, and still think you know better than all those tricky experts is just sad. Combine that with the fact this shit is fucking over many peoples lives right now, and will do so for many years to come, and you dont care because you know better and are the only person with the true wisdom to see the bigger picture is just embarrassing.
You dont respond to points taking apart your argument. You repeatedly post inaccurate rubbish or plain lies. You havent even the most basic understanding of the topics at hand. Yet you still think youre the smart guy whose in the know and the rest of us are dumb. That takes impressive self denial.

sure germany will sacrifice the integrity of the european union for some profits... also what makes you think germany will not be able to export cars to UK after brexit?

I agree with you that a deal will be done. Not the deal May wants, though.
Yes, Germany exports a lot to the UK. But the thing is Germany exports far more to all the other countries in the European Union. EU integrity >>> UK trade deal.

I have never understood the argument about German cars, it will still be a level playing field for their products, I can't see many being arsed to boycott them.
Coz we wun the war, innit.

Brexit isnt even an important topic in Germany at the moment. We need a new government first and got lots of inner political conflicts. The EU will handle the Brexit and we will vote on the final deal. There is no need to undermine the negotiation process because Britain is slow and wont accept the consequences of Brexit. Juncker and May say they want to accelerate the process but in reality that wont change anything on the EU side. I think most people are just baffled by the way Britain has handled Brexit so far and thinks its so special that none of the EU rules apply.
