  • By playing contradictory clips of new 'Brexit opportunities' minister Jacob Rees-Mogg, it's fair to say James O'Brien left him without a leg to stand on as he starts his new role.

    So now we have a Minister for Levelling Up and a Minister for Brexit Opportunities. Neither of these ministerial roles need to exist because the responsibilities should be dispersed across the traditional ministerial porfolio (e.g. Health, International Trade, Defence, Work and Pensions etc.). These additional roles of high salaries have been created at taxpayers expense to create distraction and to try and "sell" these concepts to the public. They're essentially PR roles for the government. It's a disgrace

      That’s the worrying thing, the reality and the comedy/satire has become almost indistinguishable with characters like Rees-Mogg. There’s something about this type of toff and that accent that’s like a narcotic to some English people. It’s almost like it disables their minds and any critical thinking skills they may have had 😆 It’s fascinating to watch people fall for it when they clearly wouldn’t be so gullible or deferential if he looked and sounded differently.

      The real issue is our “First Past The Post” Elections, were only the winner at each constituency vote, counts. We need Proportional Representation, were all voters are effectively given a representative voice, based on all votes cast. The Tories would likely never see pure power again, they would need to agree a coalition with other political parties to participate in government.

    Funnily enough, the honourable members (and I mean members) of the DUP would say the same thing about the GFA and regulatory alignment. Don't forget these members never supported the GFA - despite its backing by 72% of Northern Ireland's electorate - they supported Brexit - despite Brexit being opposed by 56% of Northern Ireland's electorate - and they oppose the Protocol - despite the Protocol having widespread support among the business community and despite Northern Ireland outperforming the rUK in terms of GDP due to said Protocol. They've been out of step every step of the way. And it doesn't suit Johnson to disagree.
    By the way, the Loyalist Communities Council - which has been met by the British government and by Liz Truss recently - is an umbrella group for Loyalist paramilitaries. You know those headlines about the UDA, RUC and collusion you've been seeing recently?

    I think you're right. A lot of the time they simply didn't understand. Still don't. Even recently an insider said Johnson didn't understand how the single market works. Even today in parliament some MP was saying that queues at Dover were not the fault of Brexit but of EU regulations seemingly incapable of understanding the link. But the thing is that it shows their utter arrogance. No self-doubt. No questionning. No sense of inquiry. No feeling that research and checking is necessary. Just the 100% unshakable belief that they are right. In fact, the conviction that anything they hold as an opion, no matter how ill founded or detached from reality, is a FACT. It's a fact because they think it. Brexit is a tale of pure arrogance.

    Brexit means we can have different standards to the EU, but does not mean the EU will need to have checks in place to make sure we adhere to their standards, or stop us importing goods into the UK without tariffs and then re-exporting them into the EU, thus avoiding the EU tariffs that would normally apply to them . Apparently that's what Brexiteers believed. They literally believed that an organisation that is in part a protective trade block, which applies restrictions and tariffs and standards on goods imported into it from the rest of the world, wouldn't do the same to us when we left it and became part of the rest of the world.
    Now the trade agreement largely avoided the tariffs, but not the rest of the issues. To avoid those we would have to be inside the single market, which means we could not have our own standards. We acted like a married person who wants to be free to live like a single person, but still wants to be in the marriage and then seemed surprised when the other partner said no you're either in this, or you're out. Make your mind up, you can't have the benefits of this partnership without the responsibilities.

    • @Roughpaws_Studio
      @Roughpaws_Studio 2 года назад +1

      There isn't a need for regulatory alignment, especially dynamic alignment. This is a common misconception.
      Do you know how the EU trade with other third countries that they have an FTA with?
      I'll tell you. Via MRAs and a Trusted Trader scheme. Individual companies that want to export to the EU agree to follow these standards and do so via MRAs and becoming a member of the EU's Trusted Trader scheme.
      What the EU wanted for the UK they have NEVER demanded from ANYONE else. They wanted us to dynamically align standards for the foreseeable future. And not just companies trading with the EU either, EVERY SINGLE COMPANY IN THE UK 😲😂😂😂
      Like I've said in my post above this will all be changed when Northern Ireland surprise EVERYBODY and vote to Leave the EU Customs Union and Single Market in 2024.
      The EU will be forced to use one of the many border free solutions that the UK have suggested that they use these last 6 years, the cheapest, easiest and quickest being via MRAs and a Trusted Trader scheme, with Customs checks on 3% of goods at the source of delivery and the destination with containers being protected from interference by using tamper proof electronic seals.
      And thanks to the level playing field agreement they'll be forced yo do the exact same thing with trade between the rest of the UK and the rest of the EU too, just like they do with everyone else in the world that they have a free trade agreement with.
      So why will Northern Ireland vote to Leave the EU Customs Union and Single Market? Because at the end of 2024 the people of Northern Ireland will see the tens of thousands of jobs that will have been created by opening up our (mostly) unrestricted Freeports as well as the increase in our GDP that they will make and they'll want a slice of that pie.
      All it will need is a half decent Leave campaign before the vote giving information regarding the many border free solutions that the EU will be forced to implement and people will vote with their wallets.
      An extra 40,000 or so jobs being created per Freeport, an extra billion quid us to their GDP and retaining smooth trade between Ireland and Northern Ireland will be enough for people to change their minds about remaining in the EU Customs Union and Single Market.
      No border, no Customs checks anywhere near the border, no SPS checks, no reams of extra paperwork and smooth trading. All possible and certain to happen because the EU will have NO choice.
      And this would all have been possible if the 60% Remoaner Parliament hadn't kept on removing the threat of a No Deal Brexit off the table every five minutes and weakened our negotiating position again and again and again.
      And the funny thing is that because they didn't sort all of this out a few years BEFORE we left the EU will be forced to grant goods being transported between Ireland and Northern Ireland equivalence until they get everything organised which will see them falling victim to smuggling. 😂😂😂

      OK, I then read the next non-patronising paragraph or two to see if I was being unreasonable: nope.

UK goods will have to be made according to EU standards (and vice versa) and they will need to be tested and certified to show that they do.

      The difference is that the EU unreasonably wanted (and still want) ALL OF THE BUSINESSES in the UK following dynamic alignment of standards whether they trade with the EU or not. The EU have been treating the UK differently than they have every other third country that they deal with because they (for example) don't want us to deregulate our industries to become leaner, meaner, cheaper to run and more efficient when trading with the rest of the world.
      They've been trying to force us to align to their standards to stop us being more competitive than they are trading with the rest of the world, something that's going to be particularly important once we join the CPTPP and RCEP.
      They're already trying to hamper our trade with the EU member states by treating our trade differently to everyone else's but once Northern Ireland vote to Leave the EU Customs Union and Single Market and force their hand to deal with their problem with the land border (and incidentally this has ALWAYS been THEIR problem and not ours because we don't have a Single Market to protect) they'll end up having to treat trade with Northern Ireland and Ireland and the rest of the UK and the rest of the EU exactly the same. Which means MRAs, a Trusted Trader scheme, considerably less paperwork and no SPS checks for every shipment once a company has an MRA and Trusted Trader status.
      And as things develop our godawful and embarrassing trade deficit will be considerably reduced too as trade with the rest of the world increases through our membership of competing trade blocs such as the CPTPP and RCEP.

However there's a whole other story with inaccurate CPIs but that's another story for another day. The United Kingdom is currently experiencing a constricted labour market which puts upward pressure on wages. But this is occurring while output is actually depressed. This is also known as stagflation. This is a dangerous place to be an economic terms and the United Kingdom is smack in the middle of it. Also the UK is paying a premium on inflation about 1to 2%, so if Europe is experiencing 5% the UK will experience seven, that sort of thing. Also, this impacts the price to income ratio. So while wages are going up, prices are going up even further. This is pretty much higher to the United Kingdom right now than elsewhere in the developed world. Lastly, I should be saying great Britain, the United Kingdom includes Northern Ireland which is escaping some of this pain because of its integration with the European Union for goods.

    I did spot that in the original interview and was surprised JOB "let him off" at the time and moved on. Very very glad he was keeping it in his pocket. Played out perfectly. I myself used to think Mogg was just a liar, but it's inarguably apparent now that he is just an idiot. Or so far in denial and has been for years that reality just doesn't matter to him.

    Mogg couldn't imagine that the british, the most perfect people on the planet, by the dint of him being born one, couldn't regulate the european unions import tariffs and regulations for them, apon leaving. His superiority complex/narcisism blinded him to how much power his country actually has in the world.

    Jrm was actually quite clever in that interview which I think James missed. He said why would Britain put up obstacles like tariffs so he answered only from the import side and did not talk of course from the EU side as it will be our exports to the EU that would come under EU tariffs. A very political answer that James missed.
