    Mercosur finally get a technical committee together so that can talk even more.

    Meanwhile on the otherside of the Lake Maracaibo in Cartagena, the actual leaders of the Pacific Alliance are meeting on Monday to sign into force a protocol which will remove tariffs on 92% of goods and services, effective immediately.

    Honestly these two organisations are the exact opposite of each other even though they both claim to do the same thing.

    Currently we have had little news about Brasil. Revenge of the editor of “The Economist” was sated? Or are we improving? Maybe both. The Anglo-Saxon yellow press is faded.

    hahaha

    @ 1 Anglotino

    I would like to suggest a slight alteration to your statement:
    “these two organisations are the exact opposite of each other even though they both claim to do the same thing.”

    To:
    “these two organisations are the exact opposite of each other even though they both set out to do the same thing.”

    There is no doubt that the politicisation of MS shifted a gear when Super Chav effectively took it over before he died. It now seems rudderless except for the occasional boarding by the Pirates of Penzance in the guise of TMBOA herself along with her latest “parrot” to parrot whatever she says.

    Captain Yellowback Pepe has lost his cutlass and only has a toothpick left to defend us, his long suffering people who he “Rules” (his words).

    If only the British Navy would come along and blow all these pirates and Peronista scum out of the water, even HMS Victory could manage that.

    You have to admit it’s like watching a Gilbert and Sullivan comic opera without the entertainment.

    @2 You misunderstand the situation. Our current attention is on the “corn”. We'll get back to the “patties” later.

    @2
    What is happening in RIO, the plebs getting all concerned about the situation in Brazil, not exactly beneficial to the aspirations of the world Cup is it?
