don't know what was agreed between the 27 yet, but Macron was wanting British MEP's to be stripped of any power to vote on anything

@Capitán Alatriste i'm pretty sure that breaks at least a few treaties?

Well the IMF just published its Fiscal report for 2019 and it predicts a slowing economic growth across the globe, with the potential of causing a recession in Europe and in China. The US would feel the effects of this 'potential' recession further down the road

the main causes are speculated to be Trump's trade war, brexit and the new diesel laws

sorry pressed enter instead of the apostrophe

I find the scaremongering about US chicken hilarious when most people who are doing so don't even know why the chlorination process for chicken was banned in the EU

are you on mobile?

nvm

I mean it's used for other products in the EU it's just for chicken that it's banned

@Scar aren't they also doing the chlorination?

there are more shithole countries joining the EU in 2020... I believe Albania is one of them

I don't think Albania has met the requirements yet

or is even close to meeting them

for other products just not chicken @galesteppes

- but the EU want to expand, so they will let them join the party

so then the albanians can legally resell the ogans that they harvest?

They banned the process because they think farms will use it to hide poor farming practises since it kills most germs that are harmful to humans that can be found in chicken

Jeez, some Scottish guy on the radio (not me, FYI) was actually crying down the phone saying our country is finished.

Lol

I mean it's finished but not for the reason he thinks

did they run out of Iron Bru at the local Morrisons?

it was actually pretty funny... apparently he had t-shirts printed with "I am a winner" on them - and now he says he will have to go into work and admit he's a loser.

- something tells me he had a bet on and just lost it, that's the only reason I can think of why someone would get into that state.

@Capitán Alatriste how's it feel to be europe's largest exporter of vinegar?

I mean honestly i wish albania the best of luck because it's not gone too great for poorer countries joining the EU and euro

like greece got completely fucked

@galesteppes what is there to say

we got good vinegar?

@Capitán Alatriste it was a joke about your wine 🤷

Oh fuck, they called Traitor May back to the summit... sounds like they aren't finished with her yet...

Need to humiliate her some more

May is really that one student at uni that has to write a massive paper but hasn't really gotten started on it, and constantly asks for extensions every week to the point where the professors now even doubt if she'll even hand in the paper at all

@Capitán Alatriste and the only reason why she hasn't been expelled yet is because of her connections and her backroom *specials*

yeah, EU stopped respecting her a while ago - not putting on all the proper protocols when she visits etc

31 October would be enough time to do a second referendum

Honestly can you blame them no one respects her not even the people of Britain

?
