A quote from MEP Tilly Metz in an article about the UK ban on the Euractiv website. ‘However, a similar ban in the EU seems to be “quite far off in the future” she said, because the decision to limit the export of live animals lies with member states, or in some cases, regions.’ Also on the eurogroupforanimals website. ‘From July 1 2023, German veterinary certificates for the export of cattle, sheep and goats used for breeding to several countries outside the EU will be withdrawn, a recent press release from BMEL states. This is not the first time Germany has tightened up their export rules to support higher animal welfare, having already withdrawn certificates for animals used for fattening and slaughter purposes to third countries.’ This would suggest that a ban on live exports is within the power of an EU member state. At least to non EU countries.

Live export ban sound nice, but when we consider that UK need to send animas to EU because it has not enough butchers, just keep feeding those farm animals and let that die from old age ?

I've worked for decades as a forwarding agent, and every EU country always could and still can ban the export of live animals, be it a specific species (for protection) or all live animals alltogether for whatever reason. The EU only sets the basic standards to adhere to if you export live animals, but the EU of course doesn't force it's members to export anything. (The opposite is true, the EU can and has banned exporting protected species of endangered animals for commercial reasons, for example. You still can export them to other breeders or zoos though) So I can definately confirm that Ann Widdecombe is full of manure. Not that this would be anything new...
They wont have to ban them. Boris changed uk food and agriculture standards to usa level. Theyre banned by default due to all the hormone levels, sugar levels, colouring levels and banned additives etc. Its up to our farmers to adopt mixed farming again.

She’d be happy if all that ended. I remember her being totally contemptuous of 50s born women complaining that our pension age went up by six years without us being told that was going to happen. She said we should all be working well into our 70s like she does, completely disregarding the fact that many become no longer fit to wok.
Speaking as someone who lives in an EU country and who wants to move to another EU country. I am angry how the British government lied to the British public. But mostly I feel a mixture of pity and schadenfreude.
How much worse does this woman want things to get? Further divergence from EU standards will make it even more difficult for us to sell goods to EU states - still our largest export market.
If you want to see the benefits of Brexit visit Grimsby which voted for Brexit and elected a Tory MP. It is now one of the poorest towns in the North of England.
She should apologise for making Brexit Britain happen. All forms of which were going to make everything worse. New report reveals UK economy is almost £140billion smaller because of Brexit Londongovuk 11 January 2024 Independent report by Cambridge Econometrics, commissioned by City Hall, shows London has 290,000 fewer jobs than if Brexit had not taken place, with half the total two million job losses nationwide coming in the financial services and construction sectors The average Briton was nearly £2,000 worse off in 2023, while the average Londoner was nearly £3,400 worse off last year as a result of Brexit, the report reveals. It also calculates that there are nearly two million fewer jobs overall in the UK due to Brexit - with almost 300,000 fewer jobs in the capital alone.
@@DerekHarrison-ue9vvyes, Widdicombe is a pathetic specimen! Like all Brexiters though, always blaming someone else! It’s BORING now! Fix brexit or shut your mouths😂😂😂😂😂😂
@@alfsmith4936 Because she was one of key odious people behind and pushing for brexit, that's why. However, taking responsibility for anything whatsoever is entirely beyond any conservatives
As often said of denialist brexiters, Never challenge a pigeon to a game of chess : they will flap, distract, crap over the board and knock over the pieces
These right wingers think they can call anyone who disagrees with them names but if anyone ever dares challenge them to their face, they pull a shocked Pikachu face and whine about being rude. She's just on a script and can't handle other opinions.
There would have been a serious problem with a 'no deal' brexit was many of the hardcore brexiteers were calling for (and still are to this day). The TCA has turned it from a drop down a sheer cliff to hit the rocks below into rolling from a steep hill into a patch of thorns and nettles.
Most people go on the defensive if they're called out on pretty much anything. Some do take it better than others, and they tend to be people of great skill or intelligence …. Widdecombe shows neither skill or intelligence, never ever has so she is always furious about being questioned and asked to defend the indefensible 😡
Clearly she subscribes to the philosophy that says that being a member of the British Empire means that you can do no wrong and must therefore never apologize for anything.
When the Government did get rid of some EU laws they accidentally got the rid of the right to equal pay for women and had to quickly correct it. Who knows what may of happened if they got rid of thousands ?
I think all EU countries were sad to see Britain leave the “club”. But they accepted Britain’s right to self determination. Britain continues to struggle with the consequences and discuss what they actually voted for. The EU countries have moved on and now only discuss Brexit among historians. EU have their own interests to protect and they will not always be aligned with the interests of the UK. That is not “punishment”. It’s just areas where there is no common ground. Just like we saw with the failed trade deal with Canada. Canada is not punishing the UK by not agreeing to a deal. They just have interests to protect, which the UK is unable to accept. The UK could easily get much better deals with EU if they would accept the same terms as Norway. But Ann seems to live in a world where she believes that the UK sets all terms without question.
Yet many Brexiters think that Donald "America First" Trump is the answer to their prayers. I've no doubt that Trump would love to rush though a comprehensive trade deal with the UK, but I also have no doubt it would be very much in their favour. Of course, Widdecombe and her sort would be quick to say that "proper Brexit" was the solution. You know that pesky red tape that stops us firing workers and rehiring on worse T&Cs etc.
Wright merely insisted that she justified herself as she lied and blustered. She stropped off. Maybe, this will be the end of her as presenters stop allowing her to gaslight, unchallenged...
They done a terrible disservice to the UK as MEP's All they did was heckle and disrupt. Like a gang of school bullies. But they took all the allowances.
My favourite, Brexiteer expats who live in Spain an EU country, all voting to leave but they live in an EU country. Do if its ok for them to live in the EU, why did they vote for the UK to leave the EU when they live in the EU
Oh maaaan. Like Rees-Moog it's another that refuses to flush. Such an embarrassing figure to shame us all. She's alone is a Brexit benefit. She's our own dirty linen.
I just…I just can’t…the arrogance, the stupidity, the willful ignorance of leave voters. What kind of person boldly asserts about 1000s of regulations, and they have been arguing this for LITERALLY DECADES, and are not only fazed by being unable to name a SINGLE ONE, but in fact are affronted by the question…I wouldn’t let one of my y7s get away with such nonsense let alone people who are lucky enough to be able to spread to nonsense to millions of people
Unfortunately, the UK already enjoyed a fantastic deal with the EU thanks to Maggie Thatcher. She got a big rebate on what the UK should have been paying, and none of the other countries were happy with it. The rebate is now dead. The EU have got along just fine without the UK. They no longer have to put up with the farage insults and bad manners. They no longer have to put up with the UK whining and demands for exceptions. The UK has lost everything it had, and it won't be given what it had. The EU have adapted,and pressed forward. The UK has still not adapted,and is staggering around like a lost drunk. No one in the EU expects or wants the UK to seek entry. They spent 7 years on the exit of the UK. They don't want to waste more years considering an entry request from the UK. The US clearly wants nothing to do with the UK. So, the UK is the spoiled brat who threatened to leave home, and who realises now that he just made the biggest mistake of his life. Welcome to Brexit Britain.
Why didn't Brexiteers say before the referendum that Brexit would not be properly implemented. Those who supported Remain knew Brexit wouldn't be implemented properly. And they knew it because they knew it could not be implemented properly, and the reason for that is the Brexiteers never said what implementing Brexit properly meant. "Brexit means Brexit" was the answer to what Brexit meant. With that sort of thinking how could Brexit be implemented properly. I suppose the next thing they will argue is that, "Properly means Properly", and all their complaining will just continue.
@@MrChimpeh Yes, even after the referendum the best idea of what Brexit meant to Brexiteers was "Brexit means Brexit". When people say Brexit wasn't implemented properly they should be asked to give a clear, unambiguous answer to what they mean by "properly" Journalists fail the public by not demanding and getting an answer.
No need to say things like that. As a Christian I disagree with everything she says, supported remain and don't force anyone into the Christian way. There are laws to protect everyone from comments like this. Delete please. You don't do religion therefore there is no basis for this comment.

Anne is 100% correct in that Brexit was about deregulation and the government has not put a fire to all our rights and protections, as they wanted. But some. The UK is now in a race to the bottom for water quality. So that's a Brexit success. Others have, indeed, failed. The UK farmers, despite being largely Brexit friendly, are resisting the demolition of food standards to facilitate cheap, hormone filled, Canadian and American beef imports...
They have to. Or were all fkd. Uk will get hit like a brick with the higher sugar levels (6x more in bread for example). Whole nation will go diabetic within 5years. The nhs crippled and private healthcare waiting to suck the life out of us. (Im on top level insurance and i had to pay $5000 of the 10k for my spine surgery up front. Kids meds jumped from $5 a month to $400 because it was more profitable to use another supplier.) As well as the hormone and antibiotic levels in meat and dairy. Who in the uk can afford any of that. They take about 15% of your wage to pay for it. Only it doesnt pay out when needed. Its a scam. And its all reliant on our food sources. In the farmers hands. I hope to god theyre resisting. They need to focus on supplying britain only now. I cant see how they or us will survive otherwise.
The EU regulations they talk about are employment rights, which is what they are bringing in through the back door with the freeports, exactly what the people of the UK need even more unsecure work.
My experience of "old" Britons is they hardly ever acknowledge fault - they're British you know - the world owes them and should be grateful they want Brexit Empire v2 - because Empire v1 was just "tickety boo" - lemon sherbert anyone? 🤣
@@garryferrington811I specifically chose the more informal American / international (non-British) spelling to emphasise the point that people, like AW, are stuck in the past. They remember the past “fondly” and almost “innocently” - like a common sweet / flavour from British childhood) - while the rest of the world views Britain’s past very differently and are moving away from “British standards” - even down to the spelling of a simple word…
I would have much more respect for people like Widdecombe to show some contrition and just admit they over-promised the benefits and down played the negatives.
As a Remainer with some Leave friends that couldn't come up with a good Brexit reason I offered them that maybe we could become more self sufficient in food which would have health and strategic benefits (although more expensive) but they even managed to scupper that with the deals to import food from other side of the planet.
Scotland was told the only way to remain in the European Union was to vote to stay in the political union with Westminster, then despite overwhelmingly voting to stay in the E.U. We were taken out.
It is near on impossible to interview people with Anne's attitude, these people are so bloody minded and arrogant in their attitude that they simply should not be approached for any opinion ever, not even for a phone in opinion show as is such 🤔🤔🤔
What "visas" is she even on about? The only visas needed for British people to get into the EU are for work, study or other long term residency. Well wasn't that exactly what leaving the EU was all about, ending free movement? I'm pretty sure i remember the EU offering us similar entry terms as we had, under the condition we would reciprocate, but the brexit crowd complained and said "that's not what we voted for" so we got the current arrangements. The only one where we differ from the EU is that EU citizens can stop for 180 days a year in the UK, whilst UK citizens can only stop 90 days a year in the EU without a visa. The reason for that though is that these rules apply to all third countries. There are many similar situations around the world, for example US citizens can also come to the UK for 180 days in a year, whilst UK citizens can only enter the US for 90 days in a year. There are even countries that the UK allow visa free entry for tourists but that require visas for UK citizens.
A quote from MEP Tilly Metz in an article about the UK ban on the Euractiv website.
‘However, a similar ban in the EU seems to be “quite far off in the future” she said, because the decision to limit the export of live animals lies with member states, or in some cases, regions.’

This would suggest that a ban on live exports is within the power of an EU member state. At least to non EU countries.

Don't forget the roaming charges for your phone.
She’d be happy if all that ended. I remember her being totally contemptuous of 50s born women complaining that our pension age went up by six years without us being told that was going to happen. She said we should all be working well into our 70s like she does, completely disregarding the fact that many become no longer fit to wok.
@@sososoprano1She has never done an hour's work in her life she she could go on "working" forever...

The best thing for people of the Uk to do is start the process of getting back in the eu .
Anne Widdecombe appears to live in a state of perpetual indignation.
Speaking as someone who lives in an EU country and who wants to move to another EU country. I am angry how the British government lied to the British public. But mostly I feel a mixture of pity and schadenfreude.
How much worse does this woman want things to get? Further divergence from EU standards will make it even more difficult for us to sell goods to EU states - still our largest export market.
If you want to see the benefits of Brexit visit Grimsby which voted for Brexit and elected a Tory MP. It is now one of the poorest towns in the North of England.
Good, f em.
Anne is intelligent and laughing her saggy tits off , I admire her, she
has made shit piles of money out of working class arse holes. Anne you
rock!
She should apologise for making Brexit Britain happen.
All forms of which were going to make everything worse.
New report reveals UK economy is almost £140billion smaller because of Brexit
Londongovuk 11 January 2024
Independent report by Cambridge Econometrics, commissioned by City Hall, shows London has 290,000 fewer jobs than if Brexit had not taken place, with half the total two million job losses nationwide coming in the financial services and construction sectors
The average Briton was nearly £2,000 worse off in 2023, while the average Londoner was nearly £3,400 worse off last year as a result of Brexit, the report reveals. It also calculates that there are nearly two million fewer jobs overall in the UK due to Brexit - with almost 300,000 fewer jobs in the capital alone.
Really does anyone listen to what this nut job has to say!
Really does ANYONE listen to what this HARPY has to say?😏
@@DerekHarrison-ue9vvyes, Widdicombe is a pathetic specimen! Like all Brexiters though, always blaming someone else! It’s BORING now! Fix brexit or shut your mouths😂😂😂😂😂😂
Why would she apologise?
@@alfsmith4936 Because she was one of key odious people behind and pushing for brexit, that's why. However, taking responsibility for anything whatsoever is entirely beyond any conservatives
As often said of denialist brexiters, Never challenge a pigeon to a game of chess : they will flap, distract, crap over the board and knock over the pieces
Even GB News didn’t believe her nonsense
That takes some doing.
I commend you for being able to stomach that shite.
He wasn't rude but playful and Widdecombe was ultra defensive because she didn't like it. She'll never admit to being wrong
He interrupted her 3 times in one sentence. Thats rude
These right wingers think they can call anyone who disagrees with them names but if anyone ever dares challenge them to their face, they pull a shocked Pikachu face and whine about being rude.
She's just on a script and can't handle other opinions.
@luminousfractal420 she's lying so she needs to be corrected. This old bag is full of bs.
@@luminousfractal420 because she was talking bollocks, as she has a habit of doing
Hit a nerve have we?
Well done Matthew 👍❤
No remainers said there would be an immediatement collapse in business. An incremental death by a thousand cuts was forecast however.
There would have been a serious problem with a 'no deal' brexit was many of the hardcore brexiteers were calling for (and still are to this day). The TCA has turned it from a drop down a sheer cliff to hit the rocks below into rolling from a steep hill into a patch of thorns and nettles.
I have never seen an interviewer being so rude before, congratulations, she deserved it.
We used to be rule makers.
Now we are rule takers.
Re. Visas. I think she's saying we should just enter EU counties illegally.
😂 tories all on their little yachts
Or allow free movement…. LOL
Most people go on the defensive if they're called out on pretty much anything. Some do take it better than others, and they tend to be people of great skill or intelligence …. Widdecombe shows neither skill or intelligence, never ever has so she is always furious about being questioned and asked to defend the indefensible 😡
Anne is intelligent and laughing her saggy tits off , I admire her, she
has made shit piles of money out of working class arse holes. Anne you
rock!
The only good thing about Widdecombe is that she's not going to be around much longer.
AW is totally irrelevant and should not be given valuable airtime.
100%
Clearly she subscribes to the philosophy that says that being a member of the British Empire means that you can do no wrong and must therefore never apologize for anything.
He's " all ears" and she's all lies.
Evil walks amongst us!
As a member of the EU, the UK voted for the ETIAS system 6 weeks before the 2016 referendum.
Karma 😅
So good. She needs medical help as soon as possible. Her eyes are swiveling so badly they're about to fall out.
@@homebusiness8166You fancy her don't you
the best description for her ilk is " foam-flecked and swivel-eyed " 😁
When the Government did get rid of some EU laws they accidentally got the rid of the right to equal pay for women and had to quickly correct it.
Who knows what may of happened if they got rid of thousands ?
Never done properly?
What else is there left to demolish?
This was brilliant. She was revealed to be the conwoman she is
I think all EU countries were sad to see Britain leave the “club”. But they accepted Britain’s right to self determination. Britain continues to struggle with the consequences and discuss what they actually voted for. The EU countries have moved on and now only discuss Brexit among historians. EU have their own interests to protect and they will not always be aligned with the interests of the UK. That is not “punishment”. It’s just areas where there is no common ground. Just like we saw with the failed trade deal with Canada. Canada is not punishing the UK by not agreeing to a deal. They just have interests to protect, which the UK is unable to accept. The UK could easily get much better deals with EU if they would accept the same terms as Norway. But Ann seems to live in a world where she believes that the UK sets all terms without question.
Your last sentence is very true. Not just of Ann, many others in the British establishment hold the same view.
Yet many Brexiters think that Donald "America First" Trump is the answer to their prayers. I've no doubt that Trump would love to rush though a comprehensive trade deal with the UK, but I also have no doubt it would be very much in their favour. Of course, Widdecombe and her sort would be quick to say that "proper Brexit" was the solution. You know that pesky red tape that stops us firing workers and rehiring on worse T&Cs etc.
What does this "fossil" understand about anything???
_Nurse! She's out of bed again._
She is so rude shame to women everywhere
A woman, ,,,,are you sure,
She's not a woman, she's an "it"
She thinks she's far more superior than anyone. Horrible and rude. Thank goodness she hasn't got any off springs
Wright merely insisted that she justified herself as she lied and blustered. She stropped off. Maybe, this will be the end of her as presenters stop allowing her to gaslight, unchallenged...
You're always on the safe side when you assume the opposite position of Anne Widdecombe.
What a disgrace she is.

has made shit piles of money out of working class arse holes. Anne you
rock!
They done a terrible disservice to the UK as MEP's All they did was heckle and disrupt. Like a gang of school bullies. But they took all the allowances.
So apparently its not their fault its the EUs fault for not letting them cherrypick a Brexit as they wanted. These people are hilarious.
I'd rather call it disgusting.....
My favourite, Brexiteer expats who live in Spain an EU country, all voting to leave but they live in an EU country. Do if its ok for them to live in the EU, why did they vote for the UK to leave the EU when they live in the EU
Maybe....being dopey helps? 😅
You can take the little englander out of england but can't take the little englander out of a englander .....
Because they are mad
Answer : stupidity !! 😢 .
Oh maaaan. Like Rees-Moog it's another that refuses to flush. Such an embarrassing figure to shame us all. She's alone is a Brexit benefit. She's our own dirty linen.
"Look. Brexit is brilliant. I hail the virtues of unicorns everyday."
I just…I just can’t…the arrogance, the stupidity, the willful ignorance of leave voters. What kind of person boldly asserts about 1000s of regulations, and they have been arguing this for LITERALLY DECADES, and are not only fazed by being unable to name a SINGLE ONE, but in fact are affronted by the question…I wouldn’t let one of my y7s get away with such nonsense let alone people who are lucky enough to be able to spread to nonsense to millions of people
She will be long gone to the afterlife before the UK ever has a chance to get back into the EU.
Unfortunately, the UK already enjoyed a fantastic deal with the EU thanks to Maggie Thatcher. She got a big rebate on what the UK should have been paying, and none of the other countries were happy with it. The rebate is now dead. The EU have got along just fine without the UK. They no longer have to put up with the farage insults and bad manners. They no longer have to put up with the UK whining and demands for exceptions. The UK has lost everything it had, and it won't be given what it had. The EU have adapted,and pressed forward. The UK has still not adapted,and is staggering around like a lost drunk. No one in the EU expects or wants the UK to seek entry. They spent 7 years on the exit of the UK. They don't want to waste more years considering an entry request from the
UK. The US clearly wants nothing to do with the UK. So, the UK is the spoiled brat who threatened to leave home, and who realises now that he just made the biggest mistake of his life. Welcome to Brexit Britain.
I totally agree, it was disgusting. I felt ashamed with their behaviour when the anthem was played, it was unbelievable.
Can you believe that she was a Tory minister? Mmmm actually you can.
Aka Doris Karloff who as prisons minister demanded that female prisoners attending NHS hospitals should be chained to their bed.
Why didn't Brexiteers say before the referendum that Brexit would not be properly implemented.
Those who supported Remain knew Brexit wouldn't be implemented properly. And they knew it because they knew it could not be implemented properly, and the reason for that is the Brexiteers never said what implementing Brexit properly meant.
"Brexit means Brexit" was the answer to what Brexit meant. With that sort of thinking how could Brexit be implemented properly.
I suppose the next thing they will argue is that, "Properly means Properly", and all their complaining will just continue.
Brexit means Brexit came after the referendum though, it was all things to all men and that’s the crux of the issue
@@MrChimpeh Yes, even after the referendum the best idea of what Brexit meant to Brexiteers was "Brexit means Brexit".
When people say Brexit wasn't implemented properly they should be asked to give a clear, unambiguous answer to what they mean by "properly"
Journalists fail the public by not demanding and getting an answer.
Excellent comment ! 👌.
Thousands of regluations yet cant even name 1
I’m hoping she doesn’t waste more air on Earth.
Oh man! And People STILL believe these people and vote for them.
Austerity began with the Con/Lib Gov of 2010.
Keep gong Anne, The EU has been a disaster for the UK people.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Enough of this madness, it's time to let your MP know that you want rejoin the EU! Let's get ball rolling!
I'll never forgive those who peddled the lies from the Leave campaign nor can I forgive the gullible fools who were too stupid to see through them.
If the brits negotiated in good faith instead of being bullies, things would be miles better now.
She's ridiculous! Clearly she's misinformed (deliberately?) about EU regulations and their effect on UK.
She's just a plain Tory liar
Never ever trust a god botherer.
No need to say things like that. As a Christian I disagree with everything she says, supported remain and don't force anyone into the Christian way. There are laws to protect everyone from comments like this. Delete please. You don't do religion therefore there is no basis for this comment.
Ps she also the least Christian person I have heard in the public, well Rees Mogg is a very close second.
@@nojamieleedonttouchmyyoutube he didn't say Christian.....he SAID godbotherer. As you yourself replied, you don't go around forcing your religion on others.....godbotherers, on the other hand, DO. There's a difference.......the jehovah's witnesses don't come to my door any more as I gave them a lecture about transplants and transfusions and told them what might happen to the next ones to knock.

@@louie334 sorry, who are you replying to?
Someone should remind her that sovereignty in England belongs to parliament. Not the people.
She still thinks she's an M.P.
Anne is 100% correct in that Brexit was about deregulation and the government has not put a fire to all our rights and protections, as they wanted.
But some.
The UK is now in a race to the bottom for water quality. So that's a Brexit success.
Others have, indeed, failed. The UK farmers, despite being largely Brexit friendly, are resisting the demolition of food standards to facilitate cheap, hormone filled, Canadian and American beef imports...
They have to. Or were all fkd. Uk will get hit like a brick with the higher sugar levels (6x more in bread for example). Whole nation will go diabetic within 5years.
The nhs crippled and private healthcare waiting to suck the life out of us. (Im on top level insurance and i had to pay $5000 of the 10k for my spine surgery up front. Kids meds jumped from $5 a month to $400 because it was more profitable to use another supplier.)
As well as the hormone and antibiotic levels in meat and dairy.
Who in the uk can afford any of that. They take about 15% of your wage to pay for it. Only it doesnt pay out when needed. Its a scam.
And its all reliant on our food sources. In the farmers hands. I hope to god theyre resisting. They need to focus on supplying britain only now. I cant see how they or us will survive otherwise.
Not in Scotland Our Water is just fine and Plentiful 🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴
Imagine all the air she's breathed throughout her entire life... Such a waste.
The EU regulations they talk about are employment rights, which is what they are bringing in through the back door with the freeports, exactly what the people of the UK need even more unsecure work.
Thank you Max you've made my day ❤
My experience of "old" Britons is they hardly ever acknowledge fault - they're British you know - the world owes them and should be grateful they want Brexit Empire v2 - because Empire v1 was just "tickety boo" - lemon sherbert anyone? 🤣
Those "old Britons" you mentioned, is that a mindset of a certain age group? Or is this mindset related to other factors?
Sherbet.
@@AlexGys9 Colonial "old world" mindset...
@@garryferrington811I specifically chose the more informal American / international (non-British) spelling to emphasise the point that people, like AW, are stuck in the past. They remember the past “fondly” and almost “innocently” - like a common sweet / flavour from British childhood) - while the rest of the world views Britain’s past very differently and are moving away from “British standards” - even down to the spelling of a simple word…
Take her back to the old people's home
I would have much more respect for people like Widdecombe to show some contrition and just admit they over-promised the benefits and down played the negatives.
I have to turn the volume down and use closed captions when ever she speaks. Possibly the most grating voice in the world.
It actually feels like a cheese grater on your face. 😂
As a Remainer with some Leave friends that couldn't come up with a good Brexit reason I offered them that maybe we could become more self sufficient in food which would have health and strategic benefits (although more expensive) but they even managed to scupper that with the deals to import food from other side of the planet.
Poor old Anne. Does she have a carer looking after her?
Good afternoon Max and all here. This lady is like a car crashing every time she opens her mouth.😢
She must be mangled by now, as she's been in that many 😂😂
Into a train ! 🤣🙏✊🍀
I listened to this live it was hilarious
Scotland was told the only way to remain in the European Union was to vote to stay in the political union with Westminster, then despite overwhelmingly voting to stay in the E.U. We were taken out.
She belongs to those who never ever learn. She simply doesn't grow up, never did, even being close to 100.
Faith is everything, Belief trumps mere facts. Her world view is not based on facts so she does not need to examine them, she has Faith.
This poor woman is insane.
It is long overdue that Miss Widdecombe should be reinterred.
Yes the truth can be ruthless and rude.
It is near on impossible to interview people with Anne's attitude, these people are so bloody minded and arrogant in their attitude that they simply should not be approached for any opinion ever, not even for a phone in opinion show as is such 🤔🤔🤔
When will Anne Widdecombe realise that every public appearance she does further evidences just how ridiculous she is?!
What "visas" is she even on about? The only visas needed for British people to get into the EU are for work, study or other long term residency. Well wasn't that exactly what leaving the EU was all about, ending free movement? I'm pretty sure i remember the EU offering us similar entry terms as we had, under the condition we would reciprocate, but the brexit crowd complained and said "that's not what we voted for" so we got the current arrangements. The only one where we differ from the EU is that EU citizens can stop for 180 days a year in the UK, whilst UK citizens can only stop 90 days a year in the EU without a visa. The reason for that though is that these rules apply to all third countries. There are many similar situations around the world, for example US citizens can also come to the UK for 180 days in a year, whilst UK citizens can only enter the US for 90 days in a year. There are even countries that the UK allow visa free entry for tourists but that require visas for UK citizens.
He's all ears, and she's all bollocks!
It's only been a moderately large disaster.
But fear not! A lot is still to come
And there's the "sovereignty" word again!
Rise up all ye gammons!!!! 😂
