The UK PM on the Customs Union - Update 2 - Post Brexit


Lets Get Real:

The above is a mistake by the PM, she should use the defeats in the House of Lords to help her make the CABINET see that staying in the Customs Union is a good political move, from the short and long term.  The hard remainers do not fear May, they might fear Boris Johnson as PM or a General Election, that is the only stick the PM can use on the remainers.   The Conservative Party is split, so is the Labour Party, but the MPs on the Labour backbenches on the whole will support the Jeremy Corbyn when he states that the UK should stay within the Customs Union, there a few Brexit MPs on the Labour side, but not enough to counter the Conservative rebels.    Thus the Brexit Debate has months to go before we are out of the EU. 

The House of Lords and Brexit - Post Brexit


Lets Get Real:

This development should be welcomed by No 10, the PM can argue that she does not have the votes in the Commons to overturn the result, then the UK could stay within the Customs Union and even single market, this blog is surprised that the single market has not come up so far.   The Conservatives cannot afford another General Election, this would allow Jeremy Corbyn in to No 10, that would be a disaster for the Conservative Party and the UK.  The House of Lords has done the Government a favour, it should be used, the Conservatives have to think long term. 

The Europeans on the Obama/Iran Nuclear Deal - Iran Crisis


Lets Get Real:

This blog does not trust the FCO, its to pro Arab, and never supports Israel when it comes down to it.  The EU is weak, it does not want to deal with Tehran going nuclear, it wants and hopes the Obama/Iran deal is REAL.   It can be argued that if Israel trusts the information it has released to the World, it should take action, it has done so in 1981 and 2007, when it attacked Iraq and Syria.  The World after Iraq War is not ready to take firm action, it would rather pray that listen to the REAL TRUTH.   As they say on the X - FILES, the Truth is out There. 

Iran on Israeli Accusations of Tehran Cheating on nuclear plans - Iran Crisis


Lets Get Real:

The allegations by Israel on Tehran's nuclear plans could give the Trump Oval the justification it wants to scrap the Obama Iran deal.  The Trump Oval has been clear that it does not trust Iran when it comes to its nuclear ambitions and the latest information could just push Trump to leave the deal.  One does wonder what the CIA, MI6 and Mossad make of the allegations, one assumes that it was Mossad that got the information, this blog trusts Mossad when it comes to what IRAN Is up too, it is just of matter of waiting to see what the Trump Oval does over the next few days.
