They are retired from public service. The word "former" should have given you the clue

Then they know **** all...and should shut the **** up.

Yeah, the people who spent their lives defending British interests abroad know nothing, but a bunch of racist far right nutters like farage know everything.
I think our exchange of views is done, for good.

Ahhh..there is a God. .:dance:

Johnson PM is live all media
at the G7


Both the BBC and SkyNewsHD
asked will he call a Election
if Parliament try's to extend his date,
he refused to answer.
He still thinks he can do a deal with the EU?

He is a over a Hour late
as Trump went on so long

But was it BBCHD? Otherwise it doesn't count

How on earth have you managed to convince yourself that you know more about international relations than ex-diplomats who have spent years working directly in international relations? Come on Parm. I know you're angry at the forum lately but there are better ways to express it than just being contrary in a nonsensical way.

In a letter, signed by 25 former senior diplomats.....

former...so what the hell do they know now...probably former diplomats for a reason...useless at thier jobs at the time.


And did you really just type that someone is angry at a forum:joker:


Wtf is that:shrug:



Twosugars pointed out they were former dips....so I reiterate. ..what the **** do they know?

I've seen nothing that convinces me that our PM is really acting in the whole Nation's interests.

We are on a very worrying and dangerous slope towards a no deal exit.
Which frankly Johnson seems, with his own self appointed hard-line Cabinet, to lead us to.

I doubt strongly that all who voted to leave, supported any notion of a no deal brexit.
The majority would have definitely.

This is a major worry and the USA likely deals has me very uncomfortable.
Anyone who believes the NHS will not be drawn into the powerful drug companies and other USA trade elements, are fooling themselves.

As for Johnson.
He has gone from his expectancy of no deal being a million to one chance, to any deal with the EU being touch and go
Then on heading home, to saying a bit more optimistic of a deal.

You cannot trust a thing he says.
What a yoke around the UKs neck has been placed on the UK, with this disaster of a PM by the Conservative membership and Party.

If I were him, I wouldn't be fooled by the opinion polls either.
Act on them at his own peril.

And if they are former diplomats, where are they getting thier info from?

That sounds pretty dangerous if these former diplomats are still somehow conected, so how do they keep those connections? Could it be all the free banquets they attend or something like that??

many former diplomats are kept in the loop because they have history and contacts, that's how the system works. They will often know as much if not more than current diplomats

Bc people who spent their lives in a job and have decades of experience apparently know nothing :laugh:
Why Gerrard or any former player should coach? They stopped playing therefore they know nothing about football :shrug:
**** experts

There you go then.....it is all just about them being scared of losing thier free jaunts around the world, like a said before.:blush:

But they know nothing bots, get on message. And post brexit we all be not allowed to travel so no more "jaunts" for naughty diplomats. House arrest.:laugh: global Britain will be very local

Who are the 25 arseholes anyway?...Can't seem to find that out..

Brazil likely to reject G7 offer of aid

They know a lot more than bojo wants you to know at this stage in the game. These diplomats were still in position untill a few weeks ago when Boris installed his no deal goblins everywhere.

Do you have a list of the 25 names Kizzy?

Well they'll be aware of where we were in the contingency planning for no deal as of a few weeks ago... I highly doubt seeing as bojo was bumbling around Europe trying to get them to ditch the backstop and not much else that no deal planning has evolved beyond then.

Do you have a list of the 25 names Kizzy?

It's in the times behind a paywall.

Didn't they print them in the paper?...have you subscribed?...can you post the names of them all if you have.

Do I sound like the sort of person who subscribes to the times?...

I dunno..neve rthought much about it really....but no names...no story to check so atm everyone's opinion on the matter counts as much as the next persons.
