About 15 minutes before the scheduled press conference , Laura Keunsberg hinted that it may by fiesty as it was to be held outside and there were protesters close by , The UK are now saying that they requested the venue to be changed to indoors but the Luxembourg PM went ahead with the meeting making it very obvious that Johnson was not there by pointing to the empty podium . Until now the press conferences between the EU and UK have been relatively cordial but there was a different feel to this , it remains to be seen whether this was a one-off or if this is the first real public sign that the EU are really beginning to lose their patience with the U.K. |

I think he probably had some blister and lies prepared but didn't like being shown up for the incompetent conman that he is.
A few UK citizens were demonstrating peacefully and he'd asked if all of the press, security and lecterns could go inside. It was the call of his hosts to continue outside. The guy clearly spoke about it being the responsibility of the UK to do something.. He must have frightened Johnson with his clear grasp of the facts.
In the almost 1 month since he met Merkel, he has still to show them his idea and plan. |

The yellowhammer document said this would happen, and happen more and more "EU exit fatigue".
EU countries getting tired of not being able to plan themselves. Will the UK still be buying their beef? their cars? How do they answer the industries questions on the issue?
As soon as the backstop did not work the UK should have started work on a border proposal. Its just that simple. |

I think it is really obvious what happened yesterday. De Pfeffel put the first part of his plan for leaving the EU on Oct 31 into action, remember over the weekend he said deal or no deal the UK will stop being a member of the EU on 31/10 regardless of parliament or the law. The only way he can ensure that without breaking the law is to so sour relations with the other countries in the EU that they refuse to give us another extension. It seems pretty clear to me that if the Eaton shit is willing to anger and so publicly snub his host then no doubt behind closed doors the discussions must have been a lot less statesman like (which is his reputation).
So now we know the likely plan the question is how high a price will the UK pay for his hubris? |

"So now we know the likely plan the question is how high a price will the UK pay for his hubris?"
The price could be no deal ever done with the EU.
Its clear some EU countries are starting to get fed up, and are moving away from the EU line of "Get the irish border sorted and you can have almost free trade", to something more like "Get the irish border sorted, and then meet a demand from us, and we will think about a small percentage import tax" kind of attitude. |

The more I see and hear the more I think brexit has now become a vehicle for multimillionaire carpetbaggers to vastly increase their wealth by means of trashing the UK economy and cashing in on the ensuing disaster regardless of cost of lives in Briton or Ireland. In fact I believe some are actually relishing reigniting the civil war in Ireland seeing it as a nice little distraction to divert attention away from their grand larceny and (in my opinion) treason. |

didnt turbn up as he is probably trying to piss off as many peeps in the e.u as he can so they vote against giving an extension.am sure i posted that is his plan ever since parliment made it law he has to ask for one.if he pisses enough leaders off then no laws m.ps have made matter that much if they refuse more time.was pretty obvious what his plan was to leavee on the 31st |

"Because he doesn't have the calibre of a Prime Minister."
Quite a lot of us knew long ago Boris wasn't PM material and he's showing this off now to a spectacular degree |

Would you go to a friend's BBQ if you knew that their rowdy neighbours were going to be out in their back garden too, and you knew they didn't like you?
Boris was happy to do the press conference indoors, but the Lux PM wanted to embarrass him, so he made a point of refusing, not exactly the behaviour of a statesman is it? |

Really? A politician afraid of protests? The bloke is lying through his teeth and using any opportunity he can to shift the blame onto the EU for anything. I cant believe even his most die hard fans are pushing the line that the EU set him up. I wonder how he would get on at the G7. He’s a fucking lightweight and an embarrassment to the nation. |

He knew there was no chance in hell they could just move the meeting.
Imagine if the prime minister of Ireland came to the UK, and said "I cant do the interview outside number 10, can we move all the press, security and all guests to inside the house"
Then if the UK says "Thats not possible right now", the Irish pm saying "Its their fault I couldnt do the meeting".
Saying that, does anyone know if UK security/Intelligence vet venues like this for the PM like they do for the US president. I assume they do. I assume they gave this venue an okay, and assume they themselves would need time to change it to indoors. |

Mainly some good posts and insights here. It's clearly the host's prerogative where they stage their events and unlike Johnson the PM probably was going to have a packed day of work ahead, with no time to spare for delay. Imagine having to suffer that visitors verbal diarrhoea, when it's crystal clear he's trashing economies, including your own. I think he was a little too restrained in what he said.
He had 30 days to make it clear what the UK exit alternative is, which is almost up, with nothing done. Any die-hard fan must try cleaning shit for brains more thoroughly, as he's obviously not working in the country's interest as a whole

Just shows the contempt the eu has for the uk. would you think it ok for the uk government to hold a press conference with say micheal barnier next to a rowdy mob of brexiteers in london? No we have a bit more respect than to do that. |

He talks in the house of commons, with people shouting at him, all the time and doesn't have a problem with that!! He knew he had nothing of worth to say to a man that cares more about the British and EU citizens that live here than he does! |

Johnson playing the victim.
Brexiteers buy it.
The Tories resort to WW2 insults.
A dress rehearsal for the real thing when Brexiteers discover that shouting louder and stamping your feet is a passport negotiating tactic. |

Good grief!
Have you ever seen the security that surrounds these things?
Obviously not.
A lot more secure than being heckled during a walkabout on the streets of Rotheram, that's for sure.
Nah, he bottled it.
All his bluff and bluster about an agreement about to be exposed as another Johnson fabrication.

Popularity? It shows that he is even more idiot than most thought he was. In the past he had to take strong drugs if the brain still does not work properly. |

You need to check the facts.
The UK receives a tiny trickle of the huge masses who enter the EU. |

First of all I'd love to see what evidence you've got that the UK takes in the majority of migrants / asylum seekers that enter the EU
I know you have NONE.... anyway as the migrant flow into the EU has been in the Millions it's easy to determine it's a tiny percentage that try to get here.
So many people shoot their fingers off typing what they think is true because they've probably read it in some anti EU articles but really they've only shown they know nothing and end up shooting themselves in the foot |

"1700 plus tiny trickle ....sounds like a liberal party blag"
You need to look up the migrant numbers that entered the EU in each country and then try telling us all the migrants don't stay in the EU, even though we are the EU.
I suppose it's an ingrained "them & us" attitude  |

No, it was because they wouldn't allow Dominic to hold his hand. So Boris got scared of the cameras and flashy things and such like and ran away. |

"A mark to how great he is, is that illegal migrants are still trying to get in?"
And when Brexit is accomplished, the illegal immigrants will still be illegally boarding illegal craft from European beaches in order to attempt the tumultuous Channel Crossing to England's shores of safety.
Meanwhile, the legal immigrants from Poland, Latvia, Romania, France, Belgium, Spain, Germany etc. who come to earn a wage, pick crops, work in factories, clean toilets, etc. pay taxes, pay their bills and rent houses from British landlords will be sent packing, back home where they belong.
And that can NOT be right. |
