START THE WEEK OPEN THREAD….

Monday morning arrives and so does the latest BBC/Guardian nothing burger about the Royals using “tax havens”. Can’t wait for the BBC to cover the Guardian’s Cayman Islands tax haven. Utter garbage from the comrades to start their week of bias.

      He”s married to Luned Tonderai, no, not an anagram, who is credited with producing/directing such challenging works as Gogglebox, How to Get a Council House and White Kid, Brown Kid, you know, the usual Channel 4/ Guardian crossover type stuff.

      Cosy wee world media isn’t it.

    How delicious to see the likes of sanctimonious Gary Lineker and uber-virtue-signaller Bono implicated in tax avoidance schemes. The old saw that overseas aid consists of poor people in rich countries giving to rich people in poor countries needs to be updated: It consists of rich tax-avoiders telling poor tax-payers to give their money, their schools and hospitals, to pretty much anyone who comes knocking.
    Beebistan not very interested apparently.

      Charlie,

      In the twisted minds of Beeboids, only right-wingers and businessmen avoid tax. Lefties are snow white.

    And how delicious to see the lid lifted on the cesspit that is Hollywood, whose luvvies love to sermonise and grandstand their oh-so pc politics, point the finger at Trump etc, while the abuse that goes on in their own backyard (and which they wilfully ignored) dwarfs Trump’s misdemeanours.

      Is Baroness Scotland a scientist then? She must be, else the BBC would have someone on to ridicule her for ‘trying to talk about climate change when not a scientist’.

    anyone arranging a party??

    As this government gets on with the business of leaving the European Union, I want to make sure that the road ahead is clear. As the EU Withdrawal Bill enters Committee Stage in Parliament next week, we want to put the precise date and time of our exit on the first page.

    On 29 March 2019 at 11pm, the United Kingdom will leave the EU.

    This date and time is being put into law. Which means that from 11pm on 29 March 2019, the UK will no longer be an EU Member State. Our laws will once again be made in our country. And the courts that interpret those laws will sit here in Britain.

    It also means that the existing body of EU law will become British law. So this provides certainty and clarity for all businesses and families across the country from the very moment we leave the EU.
    However people voted in the referendum, I believe that the country now wants all parties to come together and negotiate the best possible Brexit deal for Britain.
    And let me be clear. We will not tolerate attempts to use the passage of this Bill as a way of slowing down or blocking our withdrawal from the EU.
    The British people were clear. And this government is clear. On 29 March 2019 at 11pm, the United Kingdom will leave the EU.

    So read and share my op-ed to let your friends know:
    Sincerely,

    Theresa May

          Bottom of page click ” show full version”
          Then spin up to top of page
          Theres a righthand sidebar, where latest comments show up and are clickable.
          Or use Inoreader which shows posts purely in reverse chronological order.
          ie latest posts at top on page.
