BBC News gaffe sees Second World War footage played over Theresa May Brexit item
standard.co.uk ^ | January 30, 2019 | James Morris

As Wednesday’s News at Six show wrapped up, presenter Sophie Raworth reminded her audience of the night’s main news item.

“Theresa May," she announced, "says she intends to go back to Brussels to renegotiate her Brexit deal, but EU leaders say the deal is done…”

But as Ms Raworth mentioned the Prime Minister’s name, the screen instead cut to archive footage of Second World War planes in the sky.

If anything, at this point the EU is actually pushing Britain out.

Operative phrase: "at this point."

Don’t be ashamed. You don’t like Britain and all this news about how they’ll soon be suffering for going against the EU makes you feel a bit excited, doesn’t it?

I am not ashamed of backing true Brexit.

You should try to keep a stiff upper lip and collect yourself though.

I recommend watching the one hour Nigel Farage Show that I linked.

If you are able to control your nerves rather than invent personal garbage about me, then see if you can successfully post on topic.

Which after all, would at least meet expectations here.

I shared the link in post #25 with my German wife.

She finally responded: Cool! Omw now

She doesn’t hate Britain either.

Oh and by the way, I then messaged her I Just received an email about collecting an inheritance from a relative in London.

Her response to that: Wonderful finally:)

Some people need to keep calm and carry on.

Sounds like the guy who got fired from his TV news job in Pittsburgh for running the subtitle “Known Cheater” under footage of Tom Brady.

Those were the Messerschmits that Frau Merkel will unleash on Britain if Teresa May doesn't pay the 39 billion pounds ransom that the EU is demanding.

As good as Nigel Farage is I think Jacob Rees Mogg is even better.I love the time he observed that "a club that kicks you in the shins as you attempt to leave probably wasn't worth joining in the first place".

I’m confused.

Why should common items like medical supplies not get shipped to the UK if there is a hard Brexit?

Will the UK customs refuse them? New customs duties?

Will the EU ban their export?

Surely the UK could simply accept them under the old rules during any transition period?
