Interesting news today (no not that the EU have already ruled out May's preferred future option before the Chequers meeting has decided whether or not they agree with it!) but McDonnell signalling that Labour will support the Tory rebels amendment to the Trade Bill forcing the government to negotiate to stay in the Customs Union. Which could lead to May loosing a vote on the one point she has been very definate about...well then what?
A few papers including the Telegraph claiming the EU has hinted that British Driving licences may not be recognised in Europe after Brexit.A bit silly if it's true and a very childish negative attitude on their part.
Politics is in a very bad place atm. Neither main party is fit to govern or has any credible politicians in my humble opinion

Keeps out extremism either wayI think it is 1931 since the "winning" Party in a General Election got more than 50% of the votes cast and there have been Lanslides when the winning Party have got only 42% of the Votes castIf its good enough for the majority of modern Democracies why not us as well ?
It won't take on here, our roads are such a mess and full of nob heads driving to very low standards
In the UK, there's roughly 1 person in every 40,000 in the country who gets killed in a road crash each year. In the USA it's about 1 in 8000.So the USA has far more dangerous roads/drivers than we have. And they are not exactly known for having gentle, unaggressive compensation lawyers. Yet driverless vehicles are being pushed very hard over there. Can't see any reason why they won't be pushed hard here also.Filo. No need for a witness statement. There'll be computer records and all-round video cameras capturing every millisecond of data.
Ha... there is a 180 billion euro shortfall in the EEC Green budget which must be achieved by 2020 and the EEC expects the UK to contribute more on defence spending, Border controls and the Policing of illegal immigration.No wonder they are crapping themselves and making childish threats to the UK about banning UK driving licences!Pah!, the sooner we cut ourselves free of this Deadman the Better.
I can't see car hire companies and hotels and gite owners welcoming such a move.
Ok ladies just to let you know Fox hasn't got a clue, the are conventions governing driving licences and Motor Insurance that pre date Our Membership of the EEC which will facilitate a smooth and seamless Brexit on this issue.
