His NLP seminars are paying him dividends. Cunt. Hopefully the SEC will be paying him a visit, although I doubt it.
If you're happy to lie to the backwards Irish about the sea border, then why the fuck would you not leave with no deal and tell the same lie? There's no actual reason to lie now. What the fuck are they even checking? Ohhhh of course, they get paid taxpayer monies to set up all their checks and balances jobs, and despite it being redundant, well fuck, that's hardly any reason for them to not continue getting the taxpayer monies.
Don't worry, the DUP will somehow manage to score a massive own goal in the name of 'the union'.
Cunts.
Yippee.... pictures of Larne in the news.
I haven’t been this excited since the Port of Larne had a cameo in that Jackie Chan film - The Foreigner!!!

Brexit: Problems grow at UK ports with backlogs and delays

British retailers are concerned at new trade barriers being applied after last month's trade deal with the EU.
Many traders now believe they will be paying taxes on exports and imports of certain types of food and clothing that are not fully made in Britain.
There are also signs that they are struggling with new paperwork requirements following the post-Brexit deal.
Some parcel companies have suspended road deliveries to Europe as a result.
But major retailers that use the UK as a distribution hub for European business could face possible tariffs if they re-export goods to the EU.
"Tariff free does not feel like tariff free when you read the fine print," Marks & Spencer's chief executive Steve Rowe told Reuters.
"For big businesses there will be time-consuming workarounds but for a lot of others this means paying tariffs or rebasing into the EU."
The British Retail Consortium (BRC), which represents more than 170 major retailers, is working with members on short-term options and is seeking dialogue with the government and the EU on longer-term solutions to mitigate the effects of the new tariffs.
The Cabinet Office said it was working closely with business to help them adapt to any new trading arrangements.
Rotten fish
Scottish seafood exporters say they have been hit by a "perfect storm" of Brexit disruption, which could sink a centuries-old industry.
"These businesses are not transporting toilet rolls or widgets. They are exporting the highest quality, perishable seafood which has a finite window to get to markets in peak condition," said Donna Fordyce, chief executive of Seafood Scotland.
"If the window closes these consignments go to landfill."

She said the sector has already been weakened by Covid-19, the closure of the French border before Christmas as well as "layer upon layer" of problems associated with Brexit.
The group fears that without exports, the fishing fleet will have little reason to go out.
"In a very short time we could see the destruction of a centuries-old market which contributes significantly to the Scottish economy," added Ms Fordyce.
Lost in the mail
The parcel delivery service DPD UK said it has paused its European Road Service due to the '"increased burden" of customs paperwork for packages heading to the EU, including the Republic of Ireland.
DPD said 20% of parcels had "incorrect or incomplete data attached", which meant they would have to be returned.
In an email to its business customers, the company said that it had been a "challenging few days" for its international operation, and that it would "pause and review" its service. It plans to restart on 13 January.
"It has now become evident that we have an increased burden with the new, more complex processes, and additional customs data we require from you for your parcels destined to Europe" the firm wrote.
Hauliers grinding gears
The boss of one of Wales' largest hauliers said logistical problems have emerged at the Irish border too.
Andrew Kinsella, managing director of Gwynedd Shipping, said his company has a backlog of 60 lorries waiting to be shipped to Dublin.
He said many hauliers are finding that their customers are not able to generate the special declarations that are needed to ultimately enable a lorry to get onto a ferry.
"Whilst you don't see queues at ports and terminals the reality is that these queues are developing elsewhere in our depot in Holyhead , in our depot in Deeside and in our depot in Newport in South Wales and lots of hauliers have depots in the proximity of ports," he said.
"There are a lot of issues about demarcation about who is going to arrange the export declaration with the UK revenue authorities, who's going to arrange the import declaration, the hauliers then trying to arrange the import safety and security declaration to create an ENS number which helps you generate a PBN number so there has been a lot of everyone finding their feet".

- Brexit barriers 'heartbreaking' for the arts
- Why are there empty shelves in some supermarkets?

As someone I heard say something along the lines of - in the things were the UK reached agreement with the EU - they’ve managed to negotiate the exact same relationship as we had, but without the ability to influence or change the standards or conditions.
Can’t wait to see the US Trade Deal.

I read that the other day.
Had a friend back home, a few years back that was suffering from cancer and getting something like hemp oil or something from Holland that she couldn’t get in the UK.
Yes but blue passports and fishing don't forget. Ah yes, fishing.

You think in these circumstances they could rush through something. But then I suppose it would be followed up with everyone else wanting their case rushed through. It's a mess.
There are always solutions available if countries want to solve the problems:

If that continues though surely the solution is to sell the fish in the UK and surely prices will have to drop
But there was going to be no problems to solve. It was going to be easy. It was supposed to be sunlit uplands and skipping down Lollipop Lane.
Isn’t part of the problem that the type of fish generally caught by Britain’s fishing fleet, are types of fish that doesn’t sell well in the UK market for anything other than cat food?
I thought so. All you can buy here is cod and haddock.
I doubt anyone ever said that.
It's remarkable how good a deal you ended up with and you're still moaning.
What are the key bits about the new deal that are better than the Ireland style trade deal that the UK used to have?
Im going to carry on moaning as well. Not quite as much as you and your tin pot QAnon conspiracies though.
Yeah, I don't get this.
My mates mum had massively shite side effects from her chemo (as I assume most do tbf) & they just found a weed dealer & asked if he could hook them up with good CBD oil.
Most do it cos they can make it easily enough from the trims.
FWIW the CBD oil helped amazingly well, much better than the shite legal stuff.
