Stupidity continues to rain (OK reign) in Britain as it stands on its own two feet and its Prime Minister spends his time in Brussels negotiating about fishing and very little else.  Oh yes, in 2018 fishing contributed £784m to the UK GDP, less than 1% of the £132,000m that was earned from financial services.  Clever Boris to miss the latter issue.  I guess he doesnt have to worry much as his rich friends will look after him even as financial services will mainly go abroad except the crooks who want no controls.

Clever Boris.  Did you know that 70% of the UK fish catch is actually exported to the EU?  Of course the new tariffs will stop a lot of that, and the smell of rotting fish from the long queues of trucks will be lovely in Folkestone and Dover.

Oh yes, Parliament even gets a chance to vote on the new deal or whatever nonsense Boris and his rich friends will decide is best for them, ooops I meant best for Britain.

According to The UK Observer today, "when MPs adjourned for Christmas on Thursday 17 Dec, after what the deputy speaker Nigel Evans described as an “awful year”, they were all aware that their festive break might be interrupted at any moment. If Boris Johnson can strike a free trade deal with Brussels in the next few days, legislation to pass it into UK law will be put to a Commons vote, if at all possible before 31 January and MPs will be summoned back".  Hello will there be a reality check and MPs finally throw out the rotten deal and rejoin the EU?

Unfortunately, The Observer writes that "While any deal short of a complete national humiliation will almost certainly pass, deciding how to vote will not be easy for many elected members, or for opposition party leaders. So where do the main parties and their MPs now stand, as they prepare to conclude the most divisive debate in recent UK political history?"

My nearly final plea, is do write to your MP and stop the nonsense.  You might mention the Russian hack of the 2016 referendum that really helped democracy didnt it?  Didnt it?  So friends enjoy the holidays and count the trucks as they queue for, maybe, for ever until the UK runs out of money to pay for anything. I think my own return to the UK may be postponed a long time as once I get back to my home in the EU, getting in and out of the UK will be a nightmare. Bye folks!
