It's a previously used but long forgotten phrase.

Don't call us, we'll call you! :D

Actually, I like your suggestion the best but I thought you might have been a little less hardline with our EU friends :D

Although it didn't go down well with some of their more sensitive readers, this was a great April fool by the Daily Express!

Why is it some just cannot realise what the word negotiation means?

Each side will start from a position of what they see as strength. Discussion will continue until such time agreement is met or until time runs out.

The EU won't let time run out as, if it does we just walk away and they get nothing. Better to come to agreement.

Monies owed can't just be walked away from. You don't save £50bn by waiting for the egg timer to count down two years!

The EU made it up. Any money 'owed' can be discussed in due course. Parallelism not sequentialism is the term bandied about.

"The EU won't let time run out as, if it does we just walk away and they get nothing. " The point is this is incorrect, whether it's 50p or £50bn, waiting for time to run out won't save us money.

In other news, Comedy Central has a new video out. :D

Stop being unreasonable :). As Farron said, we should take them to tusk over this figure. His pun, not mine :sleep:

I think it's the 'walking away' bit that does it :)
