  • I’m getting really tired of this

    Oh I get that this game has been going on for 1000 of years, and the same games are noticeable within half a lifetime or ealier if you wanna be honest.

    and we’ll get through this

    For sure, after paying the price.

    But, will we learn our lessons?

    Then again, it’s was never about who’s going to learn their lesson, as much as what you ( or I) will do about it this time around. And each one person should act in their own way. I think that’s the real question, and answering that, is very tiresome.

But it will also allow the UK to quickly implement evolving single market rules if it determines it is in the national interest, without having to face full parliamentary scrutiny each time.(…)

    But the Guardian understands that if the new bill –expected to be introduced before the summer– is passed, negotiators could seek to adopt EU rules on everything from cars to farming using secondary legislation.The move is possible under so-called Henry VIII powers…(…)
