<title>http://www.conservativehome.com/ : Trick or treat? The Halloween extension.</title>
<link>https://www.conservativehome.com/thetorydiary/2019/04/trick-or-treat-the-eu-proposes-a-halloween-extension.html#IDComment1071894196</link>
<description>Apply the Article 50 law as it stands?  We invoked it.  We have to ask for an extension and get the unanimous agreement from the heads of government of the remaining EU27.  But not extending the time limit would effectively chuck us out of the EU, which is why I believe the EU has consistently allowed an extension because they don&amp;#039;t want to be painted as the bad guys in this.  And they are not. </description>

<description>The ECJ interprets law according to  the various EU treaties.  Stop believing your own propaganda.  </description>

<description>Your comment goes beyond the histrionics displayed elsewhere here and ends up as despicable.  You should be ashamed of yourself. </description>

<description>Because they wouldn&amp;#039;t want to feel any sense of security in the event of no-deal Brexit, now would they?  As individuals?  Not as part of some monolithic institution sponsored event?  Seeing only EU motivations in really paranoid.  Get help. </description>

<description>You do know that the &amp;quot;welfare&amp;quot; (or as I prefer to call it, &amp;quot;social security&amp;quot;) budget is 50% pensions?  Do you want cuts there too? </description>

<description>He went &amp;quot;out there&amp;quot; only to have his prejudices confirmed.  I am sure you are referring to his notorious Easterhouse visit, when in fact he had already made a speech calling for the welfare budget to be slashed. </description>

<description>Fine.  You resent my tone.  I resent your wilful ignorance and the spreading of disinformation.  I do not know if &amp;quot;some&amp;quot; = &amp;quot;many&amp;quot; as the DWP will not give figures.  My condolences on the loss of your wife.  Nursing someone you love for nine years must have been distressing.   I feel that even one disabled person losing monetary resources to help make their lives better is one too many, and distressing..  And I am sure there must be at least two.... </description>

<description>Actually, it is true that some people will lose &amp;pound;200 per month.  At the moment, if you are a single disabled person living alone, you get about an extra &amp;pound;60 p.w. on your ESA.  This disappears when ESA claims are subsumed by UC.  Please don&amp;#039;t spread your own lies, borne out of ignorance, not maliciousness. </description>
