Yes: but let’s have it right Den, the guardian is a ‘Extra Remoaning Rag’.

You don’t polish turds, but the guardian seems to do it, with ease with these stories.

Express is not my favourite, nor ever was. It was a source. You don’t have to like a source to use it as one FFS.

Cut your remoaner nonsense Mr K! People can post links to articles without ever reading the articles in question, and Brexit will be a success. The tea leaves told me so, just believe.
You've probably been taught by one of these anti-Brexit professors. The sooner the country's rid of these treacherous toads the better!

A jolly fine job the old boy Chris is doing to sort the enemy within out.

Come on Mick for the moaning left remain Guardian and the red Daily Mirror in one corner in the other corner we have the rabid and fervent Daily Mail , The Express , The Sun and of course the Daily Telegraph but you know that anyway.

No, let's be clear, quoting a source like the Express or Mail automatically means you're a right wing, racist, xenophobic, loony who believes everything they print. Nothing they publish about Brexit, migration etc. is ever true and anyone who believes anything they print only does so because they're a closed minded, little Englander and it's what they want to hear.

Well, that's a bit over the top but you said it ! It's frightening the number of people that believe and follow these rags.

The only papers I take much notice of are the Telegraph and the Guardian. They both have their own political slants, which you can take into account, but the stories are usually based on facts. Most of the rest of the British press think nothing of totally fabricating stories if it sells more papers or pleases the owners and gives readers what they want to hear.

FWIW the Telegraph have also covered the Bloomberg story, if you prefer that source.

(The Mail leads with a sex story, the Sun a Strictly story and the Mirror a chocoholic... British press, worst in the World....)

Re: Brexit discussion

My student status came in handy recently for a Times membership. It's worth reading, it presents enough of things to be accused of bias by both sides of this debate.

Re: Brexit discussion

Well the Daily Mail today has revealed that Universities are largely REMAIN supporting with large amounts of students and lecturers who are also remain supporters. Shocking! Must be tough to live in a country surrounded by such traitors

Re: Brexit discussion

It's another item in the list of the things the Mail hates about Britain.

Re: Brexit discussion

We are heading back down a slippery slope in this thread, with language of ‘usual suspects’, nobody is a suspect.

I also do not think it is appropriate to show depictions of people hanging. Do not do this again, please. The post in question has been deleted.

The Government has been accused of presiding over a Brexit “shambles” after the minister leading negotiations was forced into an embarrassing climbdown, while officials highlighted major flaws in the UK’s withdrawal plans.

Brexit Secretary David Davis performed a same-day U-turn after angering Downing Street by claiming the House of Commons may not get to approve any Brexit deal until after the country has left the EU.

In a difficult day for Theresa May, the UK’s ex-ambassador to Brussels also suggested her approach could leave Britain “screwed” in negotiations, while HMRC could not say border systems will be ready in time for a “no deal” Brexit.
All going well isn't it ? Our wonder 'team' can't even agree with each other...

Re: Brexit discussion

I see you and the rags you read don't know the difference between may and will.
I also note you seem to again appear to be asserting that leavers are uneducated.
