I generally find, after many years as a political journalist, that what ministers say ON the record is often very different from what they OFF the record or after they leave office and can speak freely...
So do you think Gove is being disingenuous or not
Wow. You're really pushing the journalistic envelope with THAT question
. Akin to asking whether a one-legged duck swims in circles...
Hmm. Let me see. Believe the National Union of Farmers who want to protect their members, or a government minister who wants to protect his reputation?
No-deal devastates every UK exporter of food as WTO tariffs of up to 74% kick in. It's not that difficult to understand why the NFU would be concerned...
You don't understand WTO rules. We can keep existing tarriffs with the EU for 10 years pending a trade agreement. Sure, the EU might decide not to agree but they have a huge trade surplus with us so go figure.
No. We can’t. Article 24 terms are a myth and have been thoroughly debunked elsewhere. Next?
You’re right actually, because when I want to hear from the UK’s biggest transport expert, I go straight to Chris Grayling.
About the same as someone whose job it is to build ferry capacity?pic.twitter.com/fwqFISWL7g
JH-B must be the last person on the planet who still believes there are competent people in government.
She only thinks that about Brexit supporting MPs of course. Anyone else is clearly incompetent in her view. Although her views on Chris Grayling apparently are still undecided
There appear to be two schools of thought on Grayling's competence - Chris Grayling's and everyone else's.
I replied with this and tagged you. Hope that’s ok! Is that George Eustace the MP? Or is that George Eustace the farmer who grew up on a farm with his farming parents surrounded by farmers and from a wholly farming background. Find me a politician better suited for the job then?
Exactly.
Whereas the guy currently in charge last week said what? https://amp.theguardian.com/politics/2019/jan/03/no-deal-brexit-would-cause-turbulence-for-farmers-says-gove?__twitter_impression=true …
Or maybe the President of the NFU would have more than the NFI you have.https://www.pressandjournal.co.uk/fp/business/farming/1683983/batters-fearing-catastrophic-no-deal-brexit/ …
About as much as someone whose actual job is Foreign Secretary knows about the country he's standing in when he puts his foot in his mouth. But certainly a lot less than the NFU might know, don't you think? Oh sorry, that was unkind. Not your fault, after all.
