I have bought food in a lot of European supermarkets over the last twenty years. At no point have I seen a large selection of UK sausages on offer. Is it fair to say this was not a big export market for us prior to leaving.tailwindhome said:I'm still not clear that the sovereignty to decide our own 'sausage' rules is more important than the ability to buy and sell 'sausages' in 31 countries, worth sacrificing our 'sausage' industries for or having a 'sausage' border in the British Isles

That's exactly what Starmer said.john80 said:
The answer is that it is very difficult to go to the electorate and be pro remain. The reason for this is essentially the flip of Brexit.

Don't think it is a vote winner though and goes against his more sensible policy of staying clear of all things Brexit.

If you transported kier into number ten at best he would spend a couple of months giving ground to individual or group EU nations for little to nothing in return based on his current rhetoric and a significant percentage of the population know this. Essentially Brexit is done and it is a management job of being seen to act in the best interests of the UK as after all it is this group that elects you.

Eh? Jess Phillips represents a Birmingham constituency doesn't she?TheBigBean said:
This surprised me, so I googled and found a tweet where he says she is too London centric. He thinks Labour needs a woman from the midlands. More like Nandy.rick_chasey said:
Cummings seems to think Jess Philipps is electable and I think he might have a pointTheBigBean said:
Who would you replace him with?rick_chasey said:Starmer does not have it. If labour had balls they'd bin him off in the next 12 months and put someone electable in charge.
It would help that when people like Starmer say they want to help firms to make profits that party members don't go apoplectic.
I think she's be a good choice but I also think Starmer needs a chance, preferably with the Corbynites put back in their box with the lid nailed firmly shut. Changing a leader before they have had a chance to show what they can do at a GE would seem a bit foolish.1 -

I can see him being a lot more appealing to floating voters than Corbyn or possibly Jess Phillips.
If he can make Johnson lose his cool, or make him look like a pathetic clown, then I think Johnson will struggle to motivate voters.

I put quotation marks around 'sausages' in the belief that the reader could infer that these were an example product.

So you can’t see him winning an election, I think many could picture him as PM putting In a shift, making good honest decisions and being a good representative for the UK on a world stage.rick_chasey said:I can’t see it. I can’t see him motivating people to get out and vote for him.

I suppose the question is whether his competence/honesty/policies (yeah, I know, what a bizarre idea) will outweigh his lack of charisma/vigour in voters' eyes. He's rather John Majorish.
I would like to think that people are starting to realise that having a 'character' pretending to be a Prime Minister (and doing a very bad job of just pretending) might just be a reason to vote for someone less colourful, though I'm not going to hold my breath on that one.0 -

Seeing as this is effectively the "I don't understand Northern Ireland" thread, I'd like to add that the NI power market is crazy. NI has a larger connection capacity with GB than ROI (which also has a larger connection capacity with GB than NI), so who decided it was a good idea to create one market especially when that market is now priced in a foreign currency?0
