Re: Brexit: Article 50 Has Been Triggered !
And so the shambles continues.
Quote:
The former head of the Vote Leave campaign has branded the Brexit Secretary as “thick as mince” and “as lazy as a toad”. Dominic Cummings said David Davis’s Repeal Bill contained provisions that would allow ministers to cave into EU demands at the last minute.
Mr Cummings’s outburst reflects continuing disagreement between different wings of the Brexit movement, which saw intense infighting at the time of last year’s EU referendum.
It comes on the same day that Mr Davis made a half-day trip to Brussels to negotiate with EU officials, where he faced criticism for being pictured sitting down for talks without any notes. In the photograph, Mr Davis’s approach was in stark contrast to the European Commission negotiators, who sat with large piles of briefing papers in organised binders.

We know they're good at bureaucracy, one of the many reasons for getting out.

Failure to prepare is preparing to fail, or something like that. Whilst we're at it are toads particularly lazy, bit toadist if you ask me. Anyway enjoy the mince, hope it's nice and thick.

Re: Brexit: Article 50 Has Been Triggered !
He wasn't there to negotiate though.
Quote:
Brexit secretary David Davis took part in less than an hour of discussions with the EU on the first day of substantive negotiations with Brussels before his early return to Westminster...
...Davis’s departure from Brussels came shortly after he had called for the negotiating teams to “get down to business”.

Mmm. So even though my MP got a majority I can campaign against the decision on the basis that the voters weren't given the full story and need to have another "go". Glad you like democracy in action.

Re: Brexit: Article 50 Has Been Triggered !
The concensus on the Today programme on R4 this moring was that you should be prepared enough in negotiations that you don't need reams of paper and organised binders in front of you. Any more than a notebook or piece of card for notes and something is wrong with your approach.

Good luck to anyone trying to condense Brexit down to a few bullet points on a crib card.

It's not notes you need , it's information to hand. A bit like a barrister in a court case, they take in trolley loads of paperwork and Brexit is bound to be more complex than any one court case. If there was an easier way of doing things i'm sure it would be adopted by now.

That = 131,072 pages in 1GB (1,024 times 128)
roughly 130,000 Word pages per 1GB of memory.
