DUP will flip now, otherwise they will lose out massively, as NI voted heavily for remain. Hopefully 2 out of touch parties will implode, with a few more to follow.

1967Ram Posted September 3, 2019 Share Posted September 3, 2019 The bill being put forward seems very sensible to me. There is still the option for a no deal Brexit if it is voted for by Parliament. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If so, what are your reasons for doing so? I would suggest that every single problem we have now is down, at least to a fairly high proportion, to this most malign, vindictive, hateful and elitist Tory government that we have been subjected to for a decade. That pain in the ars called GDPR has caused no end of small companies problems just to comply. The EU must know only the UK will comply to the letter. The likes of Spain, Italy etc will just shrug and carry on as normal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd have preferred to have stayed in but it was preferable to a crash out, no deal. I still think we have to leave - those who supported leave need to see there's no paradise. But of course that will be the EUs fault. I promise we'll be having this discussion later and you'll be blaming the EU for the predicament of the country. Just wait and see. An Economist who works for Deutsche Bank on Bloomberg stated this week a no deal Brexit in the medium to long term will not be a problem for the UK economy or for sterling. Most importantly his view are independent from this country and politics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1of4 Posted September 3, 2019 Share Posted September 3, 2019 It's very two faced of Johnson and Rees-Mogg to stand-up in Parliament today and call other MPs, who are supporting the bill to stop us leaving without a deal, undemocratic. They both said that all MPs should support the government in leaving the EU and complying with the wishers of the people as voted for inthe referendum. I seem to remember both of them voting against their own party leader and the deal agreed to by our government and the EU more than once. Glad to see they're both now taking their constitutional responsibilities more seriously. But there again isn't changing your mind suppose to be undemocratic?

Neither does he! He hasn’t voted positively for anything has he, so he’s a perfect choice as the next PM FFS! Quite how the wishes of 17m+ people have been interpreted as not wanting to leave without a deal I don’t know. Get rid of the lot of them (good start Boris!) and start again!

The EU must know only the UK will comply to the letter. The likes of Spain, Italy etc will just shrug and carry on as normal. I am my company's PCI Compliance Officer, and as such I have to wear the GDPR and DPA hats. To tell the truth, there is little in GDPR that wasn't in the Data Protection Act (2018) revision, especially if your company and business processes adhere to PCI Data Security Standards. The previous EU-wide Data Protection standards dated from 1995 (before the internet really), so they really needed bringing up to date. Companies that don't comply will eventually be compromised, and (more than likely) go out of business. It's not a pain - it's an absolute necessity. What aspect of GDPR is causing you grief (I assume you are speaking from personal experience)? The size of the company is irrelevant - the nature of the business and how you operate is.
