PPRuNe DD thread

You were on form here Chris!
"...and Europeans are not our enemy."
Quite, that would be the EU and its apparatchiks.
Exactly..
To suggest that weary HMG ministers travelling on vital business of state should not be allowed to use military transport aircraft, where available, is outrageous. Reading the anti-British sentiments from several of the ex-RAF personnel on this thread begs the question of where their loyalties lay during their years in the service.
Another sent over the pavilion for six!

Opinions are one thing. Characterising the referendum result and this government's stated intention to implement it as some kind of madness, and talking down the country's prospects - in line with most of our mainstream media - are unnecessary and unpatriotic. By all means criticise the government's Brexit strategy, and its negotiation skills. But talking up the EU's position in general and Barnier's performance in particular, while suggesting Britain's position is unreasonable and untenable - not to mention gratuitous, personal insults at our chief negotiator - are something else.
Agree 100%...
Think the great PPRuNe god of BEagle is past his sell-by date. And has been for some time.
I thought this comment of his was a cheap shot.. and based on what factual evidence?
There have been precious few facts to emerge from the negotiations.
I think both sides are taking the negotiations to the wire.. Hope we're not the first to blink..
