The pound recovering back to only 20% down on June 23 2016 and lower than its 2022 closing value hardly sounds like a triumph.

Reactions in the house are somewhat predictable. www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/uk-politics-64779415Labour and Libs: better to support good than seek for perfect Boris: (too frit to attend) Senior Tories: it's good SNP: what about Scotland? DUP: we have to see what the UVF say SDLP and Alliance: it's good but the DUP will abuse it Sinn Fein (still not attending) |

According to VDL the ECJ retains full power over EU laws that are in force in Northern Ireland, so despite the dinner dance being held by Ricky, the DUP have to be convinced, Kate Hoey has read the small print and is definitely not convinced.
King Charles III should have kept out of it, the Queen stood back from things political and would not have invited VDL in for a cup of tea, nor should he.

I think we have spent far too many decades worrying about what the US might think. The US always operates on America first - it's about time we started doing the same. |
