But if it's irrelevant why mention it in the OP?

I didn't get it either. Still not sure confused
People can help their actions but no-one can help their names.
It it is not important.
But an unnecessary distraction.

What the OP is 'getting at' with regard to the name is irrelevant

At last.

The OP said words to that effect at 21.26. Perhaps you didn't notice...

More interested in picking fault with the OP than discussing things that happened at PMQT today #nochangetherethen

Tenuous.
Not sure that’s what OP is getting at.

What the OP is 'getting at' with regard to the name is irrelevant.

What is relevant is that lorry drivers have been told that a 4 hour wait for clearance at Dover (if they ever get the procedure properly sorted, that is) will be normal and Elphicke is blaming the EU for the big increase in paperwork.

I'm old enough to remember when we were in the EU and there wasn't any paperwork involved. Lorries just went through to the ferries with no checks (apart from passport & booking, I assume)

Perhaps someone needs to explain to Ms Elphicke why the paperwork has suddenly materialised.

It's somewhat on a par with Nadine Dorries thinking it unfair that we would no longer have MEPs when we left the EU.

Might I suggest Natalie Elle Thick?

Of no importance whatsoever. Back to the main question. What is your answer.

MayBeMaw Wed 09-Feb-22 21:58:46

confused It’s this name business- something lost in translation perhaps?

About whether queues and red tape in Kent are due to Brexit or not? I am sure you can work it out, like the little red hen, all by yourself.

MayBeMaw Wed 09-Feb-22 21:53:21

Can anybody else perhaps enlighten me? confusedconfused

Well, if you can't see it- it is not important.

Back to the main point of my post. Are the queues and retape in Kent due to Brexit, or not?

No - explain please.

red-tape ...

Johnson at least can organise a p*ss up! (and what an unfortunate name!)

Am I missing something here?
What name and why is it unfortunate?

watched her complain in the House with amazement! So the queues and traffic disaster in Kent is not due to Brexit, but red tape enforced by the EU. Just could not make it up - Johnson at least can organise a p*ss up! (and what an unfortunate name!).

The red tape causing the queues and so much more are entirely due to the red tape caused by the Brexit she and Johnson and co negotiated and signed!!! What can they do unilaterally to solve this?
