I think tellingly it no longer matters. 

Boris thinks he has the upper hand in negotiation, and you seem to agree. 

I think you are overestimating the strength of the UK hand. 

We will let the negotiation deadline of 30 ju8pass, without asking for an extension. Then we will see what happens. 

I suspect the EU will not be rolling over as you expect. WTO terms will increase costs to the UK consumers, the EU will supply the lost trade that the UK no longer can provide, and the rest of the world will realise we're over a barrel. 

We'll find out not too much longer. I hope you brexit supporters were right. Don't come back complaining about the deal you end up with. You promised that you could get a good deal. I expect nothing less. 

But you replied.

He’s not. He’s making a point about professionalism in a comedic way. 

I take it many on here have never seen aircraft investigation it’s one of my favourite programmes especially when pilots make mistakes and the reasons as to why they have crashed planes is really interesting............... ok then some might say morbid but I watch it mainly for engineering porn.

Attacking police horses, vandalising war memorials, this is not the way. 

That traffic light should bend it's pole in shame, i reckon

Jokes aside, charging on horseback into a crowd is not the way either

How do you disperse a crowd, then? If people weren't lobbing bottles at the horses, it would have been a fine way to break up the crowd.

Wasn't this mostly a peaceful crowd of protestors?  Seems to me that charging with horses into a crowd is reckless and dangerous and can only serve to escalate the situation.

The horses were only charging because they were having things thrown at them, the horses weren't in peaceful crowds. If you attack a horse, it panics.

Do we know it was charging. Or out of control and scared. 

Pointless making posts stating facts when, as of yet, there isn't any.

That was a stupid thing to say by any standards  (Well ok, not Trump standards, but by any reasonable standards)

If Biden could feign a dose of layrngitis from now until November it would do him no harm at all.

I’ve seen someone throw a bike at a horse and several objects have been thrown. This was yet again rent a mob out there most likely the lefties with a chip on their shoulder.

No, they charged alright.  The stuff being thrown started some way down the street.

They're clearly in full control in the video, that isn't dangerous. The clip of the horse losing control was due to it being spooked and hit by things.

Was he seriously hurt?  If so, that's a shame and hope he recovers well.  i posted my opinion that charging a crowd with horses seems dangerous to me and as a result of me daring to have that opinion i need to get my priorities right?

Any opinion on the obvious amount of stuff being thrown at them? 

You have stuff, right?

I think you'll find that the stuff was being thrown by far right activists and undercover police.
