If our German friend walks towards our PM, by the laws of Physics, they will both fall off the plank.

Maybe that's the metaphor.

German hubris writ large?
I bet their predecessors thought the same when Britain gave them the ultimatum in 1939.
The war's nearly over, Tavares. Pincer movement by the Germans to the east, and the Irish to the west has fatally exposed the Brexit donkey's total lack of planning, and foresight, as superbly illustrated above. Johnson has only two options now - to take us over the edge, or backtrack.

For this war I can't envisage another Democrat POTUS and Congress pitching up in support, especially once an Irishman is at the helm. I shouldn't pin your hopes on German car manufacturers either, you'll be disappointed.

Brexit is a busted flush.

At least he has given her the The Elbow (y)

I am sure Sir K will seek to improve the bill as it goes through Parliament to get the right balance between not hounding veterans while seeking to take action where it is really necessary.

I see Corbyn also voted against it (Surprise, Surprise) so to me that's another of the loony left sent back to the back benches. No one has ever said Starmer's job was going to be easy and he's got a lot of work to do but to me the more of the momentum lot are gone the better.

Indeed.
The key word in the bill is “vexatious”.
Politically motivated law firms unduly pursuing British military personnel has to be curtailed and this bill seeks to do that.

Agreed. Low life scum such as that former lawyer Shiner have much to answer for.

In addition, Johnson can't turn back.

Is that the best counter argument you can come up with, Al ?

The clock is ticking - how is any kind of Brexit going to be of benefit to the majority of folk on these islands ? Lay out the plan, man ! I've been asking you for 5 years now, and as I say, the clock is ticking.

If you counter this with "But I'll be alright, Jack, as I'm mitigating 'Lord' Lebedev's tax burden" I shall boycott your quiz ! :)
