KopTalk.com Forums Who would you vote for in the next UK General Election?

I see BoJo's long awaited solution to the Irish border problem has gone down like a lead balloon.

Rejected by the Irish Government the SDLP and Sinn Fein.

Customs Posts on both sides of the border. I don't think so.

In Manchester on the motorway bridge coming in labour have hung effigies of hung Tories and this is not the first time they have done this. The Tory conference is currently in Manchester and this is the welcome they have for the members coming in to Manchester from around the country

And I will rarely agree with shaggy but on this point I do people are going to be killed in this before long. This has to stop Britain voted to leave the EU and it has to be respected

If they go down the road of bercow going to Brussels with a view to eventually making us vote again then I really do fear what will happen in Britain

Why would anyone vote for anything he comes up with? They won’t no matter what he brings in because it’s BoJo. People are more bothered about who he is than what he can bring (not saying his solution is workable but even if it was it’d be voted down).

No condemnation of Labours volatile language I see??

The details of the governments plan for the Irish border have not been announced yet so it's pointless speculating on rumours although that won't stop shaggy

However I bet when it is announced it's trusted trader, self certification and audit type thing. That has been rejected by the EU so something else will need to be added what we will have to see. The government have denied its hard border away from the border albeit there are to be customs checks

I was in a meeting yesterday in Manchester and Arlene foster was one of the speakers a very impressive speaker she was too. It was clear the backstop is a red line and she believes it would breach the Belfast agreement and believes a lot of Remain MP,s are stirring up threat of the troubles for their political aims she named john major and tony Blair and was clearly angry at them. She also said most English politicans had never read the Belfast agreement which is true in my experience.

Shaggy does not speak for Northern Ireland there are plenty over there who are polar opposites to his view

Mrs foster also said there are future issues for the Republic with a European army and tax harmonisation. The army would compromise Ireland's neutrality and prevent them setting low corporation tax which drives their important digital economy

Great rant but nothing of substance as always

Whether I like Arlene foster is pretty much irrelevant that fact the majority of people in Northern Ireland do and vote her as leader does

And I agree with wilki the tactic is to claim Britain needs to find a solution then reject anything and everything they suggest. Well time is running out and if a solution is not perfect the terminal rejectors should take the blame

The majority of the people in Northern Ireland presumably voted for the DUP and arlene foster ? Otherwise why would she be leader

The fact the majority in Northern Ireland voted to remain in the EU is a fascinating fact but of no relevance as we voted as the United Kingdom
