Cable Forum - Brexit

A Dyson electric car would be made entirely of garish plastic and be joy to use for about 12 months before developing a niggling, intermittent fault that stops you using it more than 10 minutes a day. And it would cost twice as much as another electric car built by just about anyone else, that does the same job just as well.

All right then: Nissan. Or Toyota. Or someone.

They're all too busy trying to restructure and save costs mate, far too expensive to make stuff here when there's a wealth of cheaper labour elsewhere ;)

We should be looking at something we have an abundance of that most EU countries don't have . . . sea water.

OK, what can we do with sea water?

Answers on a postcard to any and every Scientific/Technology Research Institute that can hit on a use for sea water or its derivatives :cool:

Re: Brexit

I think you Remainers should re-evaluate yourselves instead of pouring scorn on the results of direct democracy - namely the 2016 Referendum.

I.think 'you Brexiters' should wake and smell the coffee !. Our next PMs will be Boris and Corbyn because of Brexit, we'll be an international joke/irrelevance.

If democracy is so great why don't you want another vote? No vote lasts forever, as every Govt and MP knows. The reason you don't want a vote is because 'you Brexiters' know what the result would be.

It was the duty of the indirect democracy (Parliament) to respect the result of the direct democracy event (the Referendum) that they instituted. It should have been done expeditiously.

People who reject what I've said need to re-evaluate themselves because they are fighting a result they don't like using undemocratic means. The proof of what I've said lies in your last sentence.

Boris will take us out of the EU, delivering the Referendum Result. Philandering has nothing to do with that. Of course, I hope that he will be wisely managed!

I agree. With some good people around him, a Boris government could work rather well and at last bring about a Conservative majority at the next General Election. Corbyn would disappear without trace.

EU does not expect us to leave this year

Quote:

According to The Times and the Daily Mail, Brussels figures believe that whoever wins the Conservative leadership race will agree to an extension to the UK’s departure from the EU.
EU planning is based on the assumption that the risk of a no-confidence vote by MPs means Mr Johnson will not force through a no-deal exit if efforts to renegotiate Theresa May's Brexit deal flounder, the Daily Mail reports.

Boris has lied about other things, what makes you certain he's not lying about that as well?
