Good grief!

I agree with Tony Blair! eek


In so much that a massively reformed EU could change peoples minds on Brexit and even mean a second Referendum would be prudent.


Just a shame that the EU have literally ZERO intention of changing from their predetermined path! laugh

Of course the Remoaners (As ever, not Remainers, crucial difference IMO!) will say that "Actually nothing needs reform so why don't we just #stopBrexit!" rolleyes

EU Commision Stockholm Syndrome is truly vicious. How anyone can feel that sort of passion for a trading and immigration commission, but not for their fellow men and women is beyond me! frown

Indeed.

Mr Blair is of course ignoring (knowing full well as he does so) that reform requires Treaty change. Something not even remotely on the cards.

He should remember this, I certainly remember when he thought he'd gained reforms, so much so he was willing to pre-emptively give up some of the rebate in expectation. That didn't go so well.

Maybe all the details of the impending reforms are in a folder handed to him by Alastair Campbell ?, it will only take 8 mins to reform the Eu

Now this approach, Mr Blair, s to be welcomed.

You go off and secure reform and if you get it, I'll support a 2nd referendum and change my mind.

Come back when it's all done.

A bit like Liam Fox's "easiest deal in human history" and dozens of trade deals all lined up in 10 minutes sort of wibble?

It's definitely not a Banksy, so don't get too excited. You haven't been graced.

D'you think Corbyn's been down the pub a bit too long last night?
