Cable Forum - Brexit (Old)

Good question that is for sure but then both political parties have to go back a fair bit for the last decent leaders they had in charge of their parties.

Well, voters thought Blair was, as they elected him three times.

And as for Protestants - bloody Martin Luther (German), starting his Reformation with his 95 Theses, and as for John Calvin (French)...

Boudica was a bit opinionated, but pretty good. Downhill since we let the Anglo Saxons (English) in. Bleeding immigrants.

Leaders have to make difficult decisions sometimes papa as history shows you that.

Re: Brexit

Andrea Leadsom was doorstepped whilst leaving home for work today by the BBC. She was asked if, due to the tight timetable, no deal was an option. Her reply was to say that they were looking at all eventualities and, if Parliament didn't vote for a deal, that "no Brexit was an option". She then corrected herself and said "no deal".

Freudian slip??
