The Iranian boat people is just another element in this whole thing. No coincidence that fears of an influx of Middle Eastern boat people is being ramped up now. Ladies and gents, that is information warfare. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've no idea how long it takes to set these things up but I guess you can't just turn up with a ship on a monday morning and start running a ferry route. it looks like they started a couple of years ago, maybe they saw this coming.....

Javid has declared it as such and has jetted home to possibly re deploy some of our fleet of cutters. Some more ammunition for the guns of the “ship them all back where they came from brigade.” The numbers are tiny but make useful headlines.

melthebell Posted December 30, 2018 Share Posted December 30, 2018 1 hour ago, taxman said: The government has given £14million of taxpayers money to a company to run extra ferries in the event of a No Deal Brexit....unfortunately the company appears to a shell with no assets and no ships. When asked the CEO of the mysterios brand new company with no assets declined to give details on which ships it planned to use for the service, saying the information was "commercially sensitive". Sounds like money siphoned off to chums rather than proper established freight companies. 59 minutes ago, tinfoilhat said: Clearly it isn’t. in other news our galant leaders have secured the services of a ferry company in the event of a no deal brexit.

apelike Posted December 30, 2018 Share Posted December 30, 2018 2 hours ago, I1L2T3 said: What she means is we have a no deal, then sign straight back up to practically all of the 750+ agreements that underpin the current relationship. We dont have to sign up again as we have not yet left but that also could depend on what those 750+ agreements are that you are talking about. If you are talking about EU laws then it has already been decided what will happen with the so called great repeal act which will transfer most of the EU laws that took precedence over UK law back into UK law amended or otherwise by parliament.
