Mervyn King, the former Governor of the Bank of England, warned today that Brexit has dragged on “far too long” and was preventing Government from addressing underlying issues within the UK economy.
Speaking as City traders braced themselves for yet more volatility on the markets after MPs on Saturday delayed approval of Boris Johnson’s Brexit deal, Lord King said he thought most people now have the view “just do it”.
As Mark Carney has also been saying. It’s the uncertainty itself which is now doing more damage to the economy than whatever action might actually be taken. We’re at that piss or get off the pot moment. Past it actually.
“The year is 2192. The British Prime Minister visits Brussels to ask for an extension of the Brexit deadline. No one remembers where this tradition originated, but every year it attracts many tourists from all over the world.“

Todays treason is Bercow refusing to return the Deal for a vote so they think they can fall to amending the WA bill.
Obv the thing is to go-No Deal vote/ no WA bill to wait on No Deal on 31/10/19. A deal vote unamended is the price of avoiding No Deal.
They will run to the Courts. CCA seems the answer. From Friday the 7 day CCA”review” will be too late even if Johnson is too weak to set it aside.
CCA–1-Set aside the FTPA and set a GE date asap after Brexit. Set aside CCA “review” until after GE date.
2- Set aside the Surrender Act and Meaningful vote–issue direct instructions for whatever is needed for Brexit
3– Courts “Holiday” until after the GE.
Broadcast to the nation saying why it was needed and how the House of Traitors made No Deal all that could be done. Say–correctly–that the GE will be the British peoples verdict on his govt.
I am sure he will win.
All in proportion to outrageous MP behaviour. No arrests or tanks in Whitehall…
Job done.
I suppose if you are going ,to cut your bollocks off you want it down quick with a sharp knife but its hardly an optimal solution. UK in a Changing Europe project GDP per cap after 10 yrs down 2.3% to 7 per cent (Johnson plan/ depending on higher levels of immigration) It’s £49 billion hit in the worst case. ( and yes we are paying the £35billion as I said )
Government’s analysis suggests that even at peak British negotiating success ( those other deals aka meaningless rhetoric) would yield an increase in GDP after 15 years of 0.1% to 0.2%.
The uncertainty caused by the widely held view amongst the young the working educated and productive that this is stupid is yet another reason not to do it at all not the primary issue and as for the “ everyone shut up and agree with me “ line or argument …..Are you six fucking years old ?
Mark Carney`s personal remain sympathies have led to him being attacked alongside law makers and MPs out of line with ” Da Volk” has this self-harm to deal with and must mitigate as best he can. He has said he cannot solve all the problems but is ready to cut rates and we may get more QE ,we know we are getting much more borrowing .
Well done , good job
The Rambling Rose of Betrayal and foreign tyranny returns with more “evidential” hot air from sprightly traitors like Carney that “remainia is right”. What underwhelming surprise.
I almost hope for civil war Facepaint. A chance to settle the score with scum like you would be nearly worth it.
We know Boris hasn’t physically signed the Surrender Act letter.
Ignoring for a second the issue of whether a court may now force him to sign it, is that legally important (as it stands) with regard to any response from the EU? Ie, if the EU respond, will they in fact be responding to anything of substance? If not, would it legally be a substantive or valid response?
Tim, presumably you disagree with Nigel Farage that an extension is better than Boris’s withdrawal agreement?
An extension is cutting our own throats. Remainiacs want Boris to eat his 31/10 claims –which will make a bigger vote split for any pre Brexit GE. Which they aren’t really offering despite SNP bullshit on the docket. Try and get it.
The Tories are working the HoC like Saturday Wrestling from the old World of Sport. It is a Big Daddy match with Daddy in the corner waiting for the tag while his undersized oppo gets a kicking from the baddies. In this case the wicked are a 3 man tag team with Bercow the ref openly biased , joining in the illegal attacks and jeering at the audience about how he is with the bad guys and they are scummy plebs. I can imagine the roof busting rage that would have built up in those old Saturday afternoon audiences.
With every move, every stunt Bercow and the gang pull the national red mist grows thicker–and it was already a blood coloured pea soup. Boris is building up a head of steam.
The bit I’m not clear about–save for my CCA idea- is how they get the tag so Big Daddy can climb into the ring and start the chant “Easy…Easy..” before dishing out the punishment.
No Boris has complied with the law the rest of it is all bollocks , whether the EU will think it is worth giving any more extensions I don`t know, I would think so .
I cannot imagine what more carnage the wreckers can want? Out of the customs union, out of the single market, much poorer and not only having agreed to hand over all our cash but to carve the country up just to get what is virtually no deal but a couple of years down the line.
There is nothing to stop us crashing out then what more can you possibly want ….a pogrom of Poles , a ritual burning of the Financial Times and Guardian, show-trials for John Major, Phillip Hammond and other 5th columnists….. banning foreign art of music ?
How could possibly make it any worse ?
Your public hanging on charges of High Treason
Worse for you that is.

Not sure I could bear the suspense …… would I be on knot the 9 o’clock noose ?( frayed knot )
In fact Facepaint –as a reward for your unwavering evil and smug arrogant treachery you deserve a place in the record books and history.
The first UK Balloon Hanging. Not a ref to the fact you are a puffed-up balloon but to you being hanged by suspension from a helium filled balloon. Gastight enough–if only you were–so that your carcase would waft from one end of the UK to the other while all looked overhead and called out ” Behold the parched flesh of a traitor” as you passed overhead.
A place in History you hardly deserve–but lets be generous.
Well the little cunt turned down the Deal voye as he obviously was always going to. m
Tough luck Facepaint. You will just be exiled to Molenbeek–we need your balloon.
Again this was all predictable–so Johnson must have something up his sleeve to stop the WA Bill being amended to shite.
We know 2nd ref has to be funded and the Govt won’t and CU may not carry it as DUP won’t support and Letwin has said he and his coterie wont support either amendment–but it seems foolish just to trust to luck.
Show Trials sounds good, maybe just hijack l’m a celebrity get me out of here, that’s usually on round about now, just use poisonous and large hungry versions of the insects and animals.
Sure fire ratings winner
Reading this, I’m increasingly of the view that if Boris can fudge some sort of disorderly exit by next Thursday, it might well be optimum.
https://www.telegraph.co.uk/politics/2019/10/21/eu-really-thinking-brexit-extension-mps-messing-parliament/
If we sign this deal by next Thursday:
It’s a view – and of course we have a £93 billion trade deficit and other stuff to negotiate with, etc – but one might argue that, unless we pretty much capitulate in trying to agree a FTA in the next 9 months or so, we probably aren’t going to do any meaningful deal, or at least not too much of one?
And in which case, we may now be handing over £39 billion (or less) for just an extra 14 months of the status quo? That’s a whole lot more than our current annual membership fee; and to which we then add the downside of an extra year of uncertainty for business. I do hope Baldrick has a plan…
If an extn is forced on him after all his talk about Brexit on 31/10 then Boris will be massively weakened and TBP might again be the best prospect. His deal IS liveable and can be extended –but that only applies with the magic of this time being out on time. Sans that it will just look like he is a bungler. He must be considering the CCA option–which a head of steam is growing for across the Net with every smug gurn flashed by Bercow. Johnson must do something. If his strategy now consists of hoping luck will get him by tomorrow without cunts amending the bill to Hell then he has BIG trouble. Again –all of this was foreseeable at least from days ahead so no excuses. The CCA route to victory is still there if all else has failed–including setting asap GE date after Brexit to serve as the public’s verdict. Success there will demolish any attempted retaliation by HoTraitors–changed after GE–and Courts –personnel unchanged but would not dare.

Boris Johnson to give MPs a customs union vote after Brexit…
https://www.telegraph.co.uk/politics/2019/10/21/boris-johnson-give-mps-say-customs-union-brexit-tries-see-labour/
So, we do something called “Brexit”, and then the House of Cunts gets to say whether we should be in the customs union. Really?
Hey people, that’s not fucking Brexit. FFS, wake up.
