Laughed this morning as Sarah Montague got slapped down as she talked about French/British security relations.
Apparently Brexit is damaging as a whole and it is inevitable that it will bring problems for our relationship with France and damage our security.
The French spokeman said no, not true, you have to consider the facts and that it is not the relationship with the EU that is important but the ones between nations. A double whammy there for the BBC’s anti-Brexit narrative.
And Brexit is not a catastrophe for the City…as if we ever thought it would be…
Christian Noyer, a former Bank of France governor, told the BBC that concerns about the impact on the City of Brexit had been overblown.
Mr Noyer was hired in 2016 by the French government to defend the country’s financial interests in the Brexit negotiations.
He told BBC Radio Four’s Today programme: “Twenty years ago London was already the first financial centre and Paris was much more important.
“Many banks had concentrated their forces in London which had tens or sometimes hundreds of staff in Paris before.
“So if that goes back to where we were 20 years ago it is not a catastrophe for the City.”
And of course the EU Withdrawal Bill has just gone through the Commons….guessing the Remainder Rearguard will be out in force today frothing at the mouth….better call the BBC, the fourth emergency service for liberals in distress.
Well we will not be hearing anymore from him then !!!!!. Just like the ‘homeless’ person who phoned up 5 live in response to the statement by a Conservative politician who urged people not to give money to street beggars. To the dismay of the Presenter he agreed saying a lot were not homeless. He went on to say he had a house and a car and on a bad day he got £100 but he normally averaged £200. In London however his ‘friend’ collected £500 a day !!
I wouldn’t mind £200 a day. Tax Free as well!
