Donald Tusk: Special place in hell for Brexiteers without a plan – BBC News
European Council President Donald Tusk has spoken of a “special place in hell” for “those who promoted Brexit without even a sketch of a plan of how to carry it out safely”.
He was speaking after talks with Irish premier Leo Varadkar in Brussels.
Brexit-backing MPs reacted with anger to the comments, accusing Mr Tusk of “arrogance”.
Downing Street said it was a question for Mr Tusk “whether he considers the use of that kind of language helpful”.

The US said it has hit “dozens” of Iranian military targets in overnight attacks, in response to Iran hitting commercial ships in the Strait of Hormuz.
The military said it struck “air-defense systems, coastal radar sites, missile and drone capabilities, and small boats”, using aircraft, ships, and drones – including “one-way attack sea drones for the first time”.
“The Strait of Hormuz is a vital maritime corridor for global trade,” the US military said. “Iran does not control it”.
In response, Iran said it targeted US bases in Jordan, Bahrain, and Kuwait and also radar systems in Oman.

President Donald Trump has said the US is reinstating a naval blockade of Iranian ports and will impose a 20% charge on all cargo shipped through the Strait of Hormuz following days of escalating strikes between the two countries.
He said this would stop “Iran’s ships or customers” from entering or leaving the key oil shipping route, but “all other countries will have fair and open use of the Strait”.
Iran’s foreign minister later said whoever provides safe passage “should be compensated for this service”, but Iran would remain the strait’s “GUARDIAN” – using Trump’s word.
Tehran and Washington clashed over the strait’s control after exchanging strikes in the region overnight and on Monday.
The US said it carried out strikes against military targets in Iran, targeting air defence systems, coastal radars, and missile and drone sites. Iran said it responded by striking US military bases in Kuwait, Jordan and Bahrain, and radars in Oman.

Explosions have been heard near two Iranian port cities, Bandar Abbas and Bushehr, state media has reported.
It comes after another night of strikes between the US and Iran, with Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps saying it hit two UAE tankers in the Strait of Hormuz and targeted US facilities in Jordan and Bahrain.
The UAE called the attack “brazen”, adding that an Indian crew member was killed and eight others were injured.
Meanwhile, the US military says it completed strikes on targets aimed at degrading “Iran’s ability to attack commercial shipping” – Iranian state media reports three people were killed.

The US military said it was carrying out a new wave of strikes on targets in Iran. It said the aim of the attacks was to degrade Iran’s ability to attack shipping in the strait of Hormuz. It came ass the US Navy resumed its blockade of Iran’s ports.
Iran said that control of the strait of Hormuz was required for its national security and it will exercise sovereignty over the key shipping lane, whatever the cost.
President Trump announced that he was scrapping a plan he had announced a day earlier, for placing a 20% toll or tariff on all cargos passing through the strait of Hormuz.

TVP journalists were excluded from the events with Prime Minister D. Tusk and his ministers. Strange understanding of democracy by D. Tusk. Critical questions are unwelcome. EU wants to work with someone who has his own understanding of democracy.

I wonder if there is "a place in hell" for the people who don't vote for his Coalition in Poland at the moment; or for any person that disagrees with him. A disgraceful slur to millions of UK voters, one might expect only from the most extreme violent groups. My assumption is that he is a Christian, perhaps since that statement he has been to confession, if his arrogance allows.

UK is and were entitled to do so, but day by day this message comes clear. UK economy is in death spiral, amount of food banks raising even though more people are working so pay will not cover cost of living. Sharks like India, Pakistan etc are waiting good items to take over. Wealth will reduce and old colonial countries will suck UK empty

These charlatans (Farage, Gove, Rees-Mogg, et al.) deserve that special place. Unfortunately, as the supernatural "Hell" doesn't exist, they must be punished here on earth. But they'll get away scot-free because … money, power, connections, as well as the short memories and lethargy of the UK population.

Well as I can see BBC news night have disabled comments on their YouTube videos when UKIP are on, but allowing the "poisoned dwarf" Owen to bleat his guardian propaganda that sides with the BBC on allowing discussions on their views, new tactic by BBC, so you wonder why people don't pay their TV licence. This attitude only comes from the far left, the people have a point, but not allowed to discuss it. Full on bias!!!!!!

If brexit happens wondering who’s going to do the shitty jobs , like cleaning . It’s not the Europeans to be blamed for most of them they work it’s the other nations that are lazy and leave on benefits it’s dragging the country down .
