Boris and Kier raveBoris might be getting on with things however, I suspect that, following the vote on Monday, all those Tories that voted against him will be doing their damnedest to prevent him from getting on with anything other than blowing his nose.ViewDate:

Would you support a delay to the final EU departure?I wasn't dismissing fresh food casually or otherwise; I was setting it aside as it is a special case. If you look around at many of the industrial estates in the UK, I'm sure you'll find many "sheds" that are big enough to use for buffer stocks. As it happens, companies like Homebase and B&Q are reducing the number of outlets because of customer decline.ViewDate:

Would you support a delay to the final EU departure?Fresh food aside, just-in-time products are not a problem at all. There is nothing at all in the Lean Manufacturing handbooks that goes against setting up buffer stocks close to the point of use. These buffer stocks can be replenished as and when necessary without the need to rush things through "the system".ViewDate:

Would you support a delay to the final EU departure?I think you are wrong to suggest we will pay a bigger price than the EU when the import/export balance is taken into consideration. As far as Ireland is concerned, the "hard border" is just an EU construct designed to extend our membership of the EU and it's failing. It's totally unnecessary because trade across the border can be monitored electronically with emailed manifests, bar coding on containers, ANPR, etc, or by installing a system like that used at Felixstowe, where containers from all over the world pass in and out of the port in minutes.ViewDate:

How confident do you feel that the Government can deliver Brexit to the benefit of the country?The EU grants were just OUR money being given back to us with strings attached on how they could be spent.ViewDate:

How confident do you feel that the Government can deliver Brexit to the benefit of the country?As a Leaver, I have to say that many people on both sides of the argument will be disappointed to some degree or other.ViewDate:

How confident do you feel that the Government can deliver Brexit to the benefit of the country?As a Leaver, I agree with you. It would be very nice to know what is going on but, as you say, we'll never know the full truth and we WILL get back to doing what we do best - being a proud nation.ViewDate:

Have you ever given your car a name?I had a Renault 5 that I named Mimi after Mimi LaBonq, followed that with a Renault 19 that I named Yvette after Yvette Carte Blanche and followed that with a Renault Laguna that I named Maria after Maria Recamier. If you can remember all these characters were the "barmaids" in 'Allo 'Allo.ViewDate:

How confident do you feel that the Government can deliver Brexit to the benefit of the country?They were killed off by Barnier and his cronies, not the EU. Let's wait and see what happens over the summer months. I would suggest he's looking for a few more €Billion and then he'll say, "Yep, all is fine. Let's crack on with it."ViewDate:

How confident do you feel that the Government can deliver Brexit to the benefit of the country?I realised that as soon as I read his latest reply. I expect he voted for the Ginger Minger too, in the hope they'll win independence in the unlikely event of a 2nd neverendum on the subject - only to be taken back into the "surfdom" of the EU by her and her band of loonies.ViewDate:

How confident do you feel that the Government can deliver Brexit to the benefit of the country?How on earth can you go on about the money which the leave campaign spent when David Cameron et al spent £9million alone on leaflets trying to convince us to remain in the EU? These remainers have tried every dirty trick in the book to override the majority DEMOCRATICALLY arrived at decision, just because they think their opinion is more important, well it isn't.ViewDate:

How confident do you feel that the Government can deliver Brexit to the benefit of the country?No benefits? What about the £20Bn we have to send to the EU for the supposedly free tree? (OK, we get about £8Bn back but we are TOLD where it has to be spent.) What about being in control of our own fishing grounds? What about being in control of our own laws without interference from the ECJ?ViewDate:

How confident do you feel that the Government can deliver Brexit to the benefit of the country?After much thought and lost sleep these last few days, I've come to the conclusion that we would be much better off with no deal at all, reverting to the WTO's rule book. If that means there will be a border between NI and the Republic, let the EU/Republic build and man it. We don't have to lift a finger. A no deal won't affect trade like the purveyors of Project Fear would have you believe, nor would the City of London be overly affected. As for the flights ban/delays at ports - more shed-loads of BS.ViewDate:
