Jackass UK negotiators have just realised they can’t achieve Brexit in the transition period they’ve been offered
“Presidents Club? Never been there,” says David Davis, although his hand gestures tell a different story [Image: PA].
The whole kit and caboodle, as the saying goes.
The UK’s Brexit negotiators are considering asking the EU for a longer transition period than the one they have been offered, amid concerns it will not be long enough to prepare the country for exit.
The possibility of a longer transition comes amid increasing discontent from the Tory right about the period as an EU “vassal state”, and with negotiations on the issue set to start in earnest in the coming weeks.
A Brussels source told The Independent that British officials had asked about the feasibility of extending the period in a recent meeting, while UK diplomats admitted that it might need to stretch beyond the start of 2021 and would not rule out pushing for a later date in upcoming talks.

These hard-line Tories come out with nonsensical terms such as “Vassal State” without explaining exactly how. These are people who are incapable of working as equals alongside people from other nations. They can’t even work harmoniously together amongst their own nasty selves. They seem to want to seek out divisive confrontation and trouble, but then they are Tories who have always believed in the doctrine of “divide and rule”.
Then just stop paying the corrupt organisation that is the EU.
Probably about the same time the jackasses who think the eu has offered us anything, they still have not discussed what they want let alone be in a position to offer anything, realise the truth, we need to get rid of the remainders interference in us leaving.
