The Luxembourg Pm

[Bobbisox1]

Sounding very like Herr Flick from 'Ello ''Ello

[Ken4155]

All this "Maggie would have done this and Maggie would have done that" is getting on my threepennies. According to many on here, Maggie was the best thing since sliced bread. Would she, then, have kowtowed to the Eurosceptics in her party

[Ken4155]

Itchy trigger finger clicked answer now a tad too ealy:-/ Should have continued "in her party and called a referendum?"

[hereIam]

The more I see of Boris the more I admire him. He isn't half putting up with a lot of stick just to ensure the leave vote (which won the referendum) is adhered to despite all the many delaying tactics and scaremongering from the 'remainer' MP's !

[Arrods]

People like the Luxembourg PM are shooting themselves in the feet by their childish behaviour. I voted remain - but will vote leave, in the unlikely event of a referendum.

The Luxembourg P.M. reminds me of a greasy, slimeball ,villain out of Die Hard, or may be the Sheriff of Nottingham in the old Robin Hood series. ( Richard Greene)

The Luxembourg P.M. in earlier times. :-)

The brexiteers need someone to blame for the mess Britain is in, today’s choice is the P m for Luxembourg . Tomorrow ...... who knows ?

//Tomorrow ...... who knows ?//

Why not Nicola?

[Arrods]

Look no further than the UK Parliament for the mess we're in.

"According to many on here, Maggie was the best thing since sliced bread. Would she, then, have kowtowed to the Eurosceptics in her party"

Why kowtow? She would have been leading the Eurosceptics.

Margaret Thatcher was a huge fan of the Common Market (1970s), was instrumental in shaping the Single Market (1980s), but was avidly against the surging federalism of Maastricht (1990s) which transmogrified the EEC/EC from a trade area into the EU behemoth.

" or may be the Sheriff of Nottingham in the old Robin Hood series."

I'm thinking Lamburger Gessler from the William Tell series (Willoughby Wittenham Rees Goddard ).

[vetuste_ennemi]

Do you think Gulliver ought replace his sobriquet with a more honest one?

I suggest Yahoo. Because it's easier to spell than houynhnms. And the atavar is probably easier to get hold of.

Exactly. I don't blame the Luxembourg PM. In fact, I don't quite know what the "Prime Minister" of a country with a population smaller than that at Liverpool or two London Boroughs is involved in our affairs at all.

The blame for the current debacle lies squarely with Parliament and in particular with members of the House of Commons. The majority of them, despite their manifestoes and their parliamentary votes to invoke Brexit, have simply refused to countenance our departure in a meaningful manner.

Because Luxembourg is very important to the mandarins of the EUSSR. It's where they launder all the money that they are stealing from the working people of mainland Europe and Great Britain. If they want to maintain that position they need to sing from the EUSSR song sheet.

Quite honestly, I cannot believe an embassy dos not have a room inside large enough for a meeting? The clips I heard sounded like the remainers where well prepared to heckle with loud hailers etc.

It does....there was also a football ground within 100 yds that would easily have accommodated the press from galaxies far far away not just Earth. Problem with those locations was, that they were too easily protected from "spontaneous" protesters who had spent days planning the disgraceful performance........just like they do in London when accommodated by citizen Khant. It was an ambush and Boris, on our behalf, could smell the brown stuff before it hit the whirly round thing that blows air.

The New Judge beat me to it. I don't blame anybody except those who have spent the last three years doing their damndest to keep us in the EU, and only talking about democracy when it suits their purpose.

[Theland]

I thought the meeting was in Bussels ? I turned up an nobody there.
Just filled my pockets with horses hooves and egg and cress sandwiches and got the bus home.

[Old_Geezer]

We know who is genuinely to blame for the mess; it's clearly the tag team of the intransigence uncompromising EU, and their remoaner friends in the UK causing chaos. The Luxembourg PM is merely showing the utter lack of respect for visiting national leaders that one should henceforce expect from some quarters. Such behaviour will be remembered.
