    Socialism is just the modern word for monarchy.

    D.C. has become a Guild System with an hierarchy and line of accession much like the Royal Court or priestly classes.

    Private citizens are perfectly able of doing a better job without "apprenticing".

    Ireland begs EU for compromise as Dublin FINALLY realises economic threat


    Dublin has raised the issue in high-level meetings with the European Commission and the British Government in the hope of convincing a compromise. Under the Northern Ireland border fix, any goods produced in Northern Ireland can circulate freely throughout the EU. But those goods will not be recognised as EU products if they are exported as part of the bloc’s existing free-trade agreements.

    This is because as part of last year’s Withdrawal Agreement, Northern Ireland is legally part of the UK’s customs territory.

    Northern Ireland, alongside the rest of the UK, will leave the EU’s 60 free-trade agreements on December 1 after the end of the post-Brexit transition period.

    Businesses on the island of Ireland have raised concerns that products made with components or ingredients from the North but manufactured in the South could suddenly face new trade tariffs next year.

    And an EU source said Northern Ireland should be allowed to benefit from EU trade deals because the province is forced to comply with many single market regulations.

    Micheal Martin

    The insider said: “It’s seen as an unfair situation developing in which the North has to take on board all the customs procedures and a lot of the regulatory issues associated with the single market but can’t then benefit from the trade agreements the EU has.”

    Under most trade agreements, exported goods can only be classed as domestic if they respect the limits of foreign components or ingredients – known as rules of origin.

    The dairy industry was said to be expecting grave implications without an agreement that would let Northern Ireland be included in EU trade pacts.

    Currently millions of litres of milk are produced in the North but processed in the Republic before being exported around the world as EU milk.

    The Tories won't want to return, of course, but the Breturn movement will pick up voters with every new catastrophe that Brexit brings. Whatever goes wrong after December 31st will be blamed on Brexit- and most of that will be accurate. Brexiteers will be desperately swimming against the tide- and the majority of Brits will want to drown them. That is what British socialists are working towards.

    Shouldn't you be more concerned about that monumental Welsh prick Mark Drayford? What an effing loony that man is.

    You're such a stupid ignorant sod, socialists used to be totally against the EU ffs. I voted in 1983 for Michael Foot to get the UK out of the EEC.

    The 1983 manifesto says European Economic Community, as the EU was then known, "was never devised to suit us, and our experience as a member of it has made it more difficult for us to deal with our economic and industrial problems".

    Tories tried to kill Nelson Mandela and Thatcher called him a ' terrorist '. The EU is a socialist construct- even if the current Labour party is not. Socialists are working on that.

    You're a committed parasite, Comrade maggot- and even nature is trying to get rid of you and yours.

    Let's hope so, anyway.

    Once again, there is no deal possible. A deal would require concessions from Johnson, which would make him look weak. No deal means Johnson can blame the EU for any problems.

    Any complete deal would require all the countries of the EU to sign on, which takes a few months. Even if a deal was made today, it would be impossible before the end of the current situation.

    They are more negotiating for what happens later in 2021 now.
