„München ist eine offene, multikulturelle Stadt im Herzen Europas. Gäste jeder Erdteile sollen den europäischen Konsens und ein klares ‚JA‘ zu Europa spüren und erleben“, heißt es in der Petition, die noch bis Ende April läuft und zurzeit 179 Unterzeichner hat. „Daher ist es unzumutbar, dass der größte Park in München mit dem - unserer Ansicht nach - europafeindlichen Verhalten Großbritanniens assoziiert wird. Wir fordern eine Diskussion zur Umbenennung dieses Münchener Wahrzeichens. Bitte helft uns, ein Zeichen zu setzen, das wir Bürger Bayerns und Europas das Verhalten Großbritanniens nicht gutheißen und auf unseren Unmut und unser Unverständnis zum Brexit aufmerksam machen wollen.“

Die Zeichner dieser Petition wissen vermutlich nicht mal, was ein Englischer Gartenpark ist.

Genausogut könnten die Petanten fordern, dass die Münchner Staatsoper alle Bläser des Englischhorns entlässt :)

Auch das wieder ein prima Aufheber. Der sicherlich noch mal Aktualitaet erlangen wird. :-)

Ist schon Aktualität. Gerade werden die Einwanderungsgesetze von EU-Idiotie wieder der Realität und dem Verstand angepasst. Und auf HS2 werden keine osteuropäischen Billigstfirmen vertreten sein.

RUSSIA RELAXES VISA RULES FOR EU CITIZENS – BUT NOT FOR UK VISITORS
Red tape remains for many non-EU countries, including the UK

The e-visa is expected to cost US$50 (£38) – compared with over £100 for a British traveller obtaining a standard Russian visa.

But as with current e-visas for specific regions of Russia, UK visitors are excluded.

“Consider it the result of political tensions, if you will, but we suspect it’s more a tit-for-tat move by Russia in response to the unusually high visa charges which the United Kingdom demands even for short visits by Russians,” said Nicky Gardner, co-editor of Hidden Europe.

At present some foreign visitors qualify for specific regional visas to three locations in Russia: St Petersburg, the exclave of Kaliningrad (between Poland and Lithuania) and the country’s Far East.
These are available to European Union citizens, but not the British.

Companies go Dutch to avoid fallout from Brexit
The Dutch government has lured 140 companies to the Netherlands since the Brexit referendum in 2016, The Times has learnt.

In a sign that British-based businesses are boosting their preparations for the UK’s future outside the single market and customs union, the Netherlands Foreign Investment Agency said that 78 of those had made the move last year. They are expected to deliver 4,200 jobs to the country and €375 million in investment. The agency is in talks with 425 other businesses that are waiting for greater clarity on Brexit talks before committing to any move.

Sony and Panasonic, the Japanese technology companies, are moving their European bases to the Netherlands. Media companies, including Bloomberg and the Discovery channel, are moving some London-based staff to Amsterdam.

Immigration rules will 'severely impact farming sector' - NFU
Changes to the immigration rules will 'severely impact the farming sector' if visas for lower-skilled workers are limited, the National Farmer's Union (NFU) has claimed.

According to the NFU president Minette Batters, the government is showing "failure to recognise" the needs of the British and farming industry. Mrs Batters said: "As the UK's largest manufacturing sector, British food and farming is at the very core of our economy and any immigration policy must deliver for its needs.
"We have said repeatedly that for farm businesses it is about having the full range of skills needed - from pickers and packers to meat processors and vets - if we are to continue to deliver high quality, affordable food for the public.

"Failure to provide an entry route for these jobs will severely impact the farming sector.

"There are also some jobs that simply cannot be replaced by technology."

Batters said the expansion of the seasonal workers pilot scheme- which gives fruit and vegetable farmers access to a bigger pool of staff to help pick this year's harvest - would ease "some pressure" in the coming season but "growers remain very concerned about how they will recruit vitally important seasonal workers in future.

Qualifikationen für die Möglichkeit, ins UK einzuwandern - schrecklich, dieser üble Rassismus der Tories.

The starting gun has fired on Brexit trade talks – and we’re already running out of time
For all the tough rhetoric of Johnson’s henchmen, the timeline and the EU’s busy inbox could be bad news for Britain

... The problem is that they will be aggravated by two related factors: the limited time available to do the deal, as well as the EU’s lack of focus and its competing priorities. Both increase the risk of a bad deal, or of no deal whatsoever.

The time constraint primarily flows from Johnson’s unwillingness to extend the transition period beyond this year. The most important reason for this is the government’s desire to loudly signal it has “taken back control”. Another reason is money. Any extension to the transition period would mean continued UK contributions to the EU budget, as the £39bn payment negotiated as part of the UK’s exit package only covers the government until the end of this year. The optics of negotiating how many more billions to send to Brussels wouldn’t be easy for Johnson, regardless of the 80-seat majority he now commands.

The UK’s unwillingness to extend the transition suggests that the government has 10 months – from March to December – to strike a deal. In fact, the window will be much tighter: probably four months, from July to October. This is because whatever deal is negotiated will require ratification at the end of the year. Even if member states’ national parliaments don’t have to sign off on the initial deal, there will still be an approval process that involves EU leaders, the European parliament and the House of Commons which will eat up quite some time.

Then there is the problem of focus – or lack thereof. The EU is currently in the process of finalising the negotiating mandate that will inform its position in the upcoming talks. But EU capitals haven’t been able to agree among themselves what their negotiating priorities should be. Some member states want to focus on goods and fish; others on social security, aviation, data, security and foreign policy as well. That means there will be a substantial number of parallel tracks at the outset – some well-placed officials suggest 10-15 being negotiated at the same time. With little focus, senior EU officials worry that only limited progress will be made.

This diluted negotiating process will only be rectified on 18-19 June, when EU leaders meet in Brussels to take stock of negotiations. It’s at this point that they will have a reckoning with reality, and probably agree to focus their discussions on a few key areas – trade in goods and the governance framework for UK-EU relations being the most likely candidates. But four important months will have been lost.

The final problem, which is outside the government’s control but should have been factored into its thinking, concerns EU politics. Senior EU officials are currently trying to agree the union’s budget blueprint and spending priorities through to 2028. EU leaders will meet in Brussels tomorrow to try and thrash out a deal. But they remain far apart, so agreement is only likely closer to summer or in the second half of the year. This is where leaders’ time, energy and political capital will be spent. The EU will also be attempting to negotiate more stringent 2030 climate targets, a mini-trade deal with the US, host a summit with China, and advance its plans for “digital sovereignty”. Trade talks with the UK, while important, are a distraction – “a pain in the neck”, in the words of one of the EU principals who will be on the frontlines in the negotiations. ...

Das laesst eigentlich nur die nachstehenden Optionen offen:

1. BoJo sagt ja zu allem was die EU will -nur um einen Deal ueber die Runden zu bringen. Damit bliebe dann das UK ganz wie zuvor immer noch eingebunden in EU Bedingungen - jedoch nun ohne Mitglied zu sein. Das wuerde die Brexiteers nicht freuen.

2. BoJo knickt ein und verlaengert die Verhandlungsphase -was automatisch auch bedeutet mehr Milliarden in Richtung EU zu schicken. In der man aber de facto kein Mitglied mehr ist und keinerlei Repraesentanz vor Ort und Mitbestimmung mehr hat. Und es bleibt trotzdem alles beim alten -politisch und wirtschaftlich, so als ob man noch Mitglied waere, solange man noch verhandelt und es noch keinen neuen Deal gibt. Das wuerde sicherlich innenpolitisch auch nicht gerade zu grosser Freude fuehren.

3. BoJo bleibt hart und das UK crashes out am Ende des Jahres mit einem 'No Deal' Brexit. Was wiederum wirtschaftspolitisch katastrophal waere.
Und was man ja auch schon vor 4 Jahren haette haben koennen -was aber, wie wir wissen, das Parlament partout nicht wollte. Da hat man ja sogar noch May's Deal abgelehnt.
Auch das birgt also jede Menge Potential fuer schwere Verwerfungen. Noch mehr wenn zu wirtschaftlichen Problemen kommt.

Das wird also noch hochinteressant.
Meine Erwartung ist dass Captain BoJo in vorhersehbar kommendes schweres Wetter segelt. So, oder so, oder so.
Mit wenigen guten Aussichten, da auch wieder unbeschadet wieder herauszukommen. Und das gilt nicht nur fuer den "Lord Nelson" auf der Bruecke, sondern auch fuer das kleine Schifflein UK.

How Brexit talks turned into a learning experience for the UK
Europe correspondent Jon Stone reviews Britain’s confused dealings with the EU since the referendum in 2016

The first calling point of the UK’s negotiator immediately after Brexit will not be Brussels, it will be Berlin, to strike a deal,” said Conservative MP David Davis, a month before the 2016 EU referendum.
At the time a backbencher, Davis painted a picture in which “a UK-German deal would include free access for their cars and industrial goods, in exchange for a deal on everything else”. Similar deals would be reached with other key EU nations, he said.
“France would want to protect £3bn of food and wine exports. Italy, its £1bn fashion exports. Poland its £3bn manufacturing exports,” he went on, concluding: “Trade negotiations are exercises in mutual self-interest.” ....

Dazu eine Lesermeinung:
the madness of it all
It is so truly Orwellian; defeat is victory, slavery is independence, black is white. Nothing Boris Johnson has ever said is or has been true. Yet he won the Tories a substantial majority. This is what Britain has become; a sad divided country forced to live in a fantasy world and gradually falling further apart.
