The real Brexit thread

[Drog]

Here is the intro Michael. You'll have to subscribe for the rest. Beware though - you won't like it - and this is from your beloved government.


Britain will be left worse off under all Brexit scenarios, with financial services, chemicals, clothing, manufacturing, food and drink, cars and retailing among the sectors worst hit, according to secret government analysis.

Lots of governmental statements have been wrong though haven't they? Here's one from the top. https://www.express.co.uk/news/uk/9...ameron-referendum-WEF-Davos-2018-Project-fear

I've said it before, Corbynladen will not say which way he is swinging in case it comes back to bite him on the bum later, that delicacy is reserved for the Abbotcus

Do you not have the brains to realise that the EU are merely posturing. They know as well as we do that they need us more than we need them.

Oh really. Listen to what the EU has said from the start: the UK is either in or out. There will be no middle ground.

 

[Benjamin Kaynine]

Why don't we just ask the eu to spell out THEIR terms fro brexit. at.

Why should they ? The UK has decided to leave, not the other way round.

 

[Benjamin Kaynine]

The German ambassador nails the Brexit mindset of the 37%. Perhaps he's looked on here with constant references to the "4th Reich" and eulogising of the warmonger Churchill? Either way, you cannot blame the 400m citizens of the EU giving up on the UK. The little England island mentality will ultimately be its downfall

You're not supposed to mention "the war" are you?

 

[yoda]

I can’t see any posts on here eulogising Churchill John, have you been playing away and got confused ?

Typical Labour toff, completely out of touch with reality

Meanwhile he is spouting off in the Palace of Westminster about reversing the referendum, the quisling should be hanged

Out is fine. They need us more than we need them. They are just posturing.

Please don't quote that left wing rag on here and I won't quote the Daily Mail.

It's this sort of deluded British exceptionalism that is greeted with hoots of derision in Europe.

Barnier has always said that no deal can be "a la carte". The UK is about to find out what that means.

Why can't it? Because the Eurocrats say so? What happened to the UK stance in the debate, is that not for consideration too?

Deluded British exceptionalism or severe trade imbalance? We buy a lot more off them than they do off us and I doubt pandering to the collective ego of the Brussels oligarchy ranks above cold hard cash for most of their members.

 

[Drog]

Oh really. Listen to what the EU has said from the start: the UK is either in or out. There will be no middle ground.

Given that we buy more off them than they buy off us that would be cutting their nose off to spite their face, wouldn't it?


btw Says in the Thunderer today that left wingers are uglier in appearance than their counterparts on the right of centre. Do you agree?

He's the OUTGOING Ambassador. I'm rather more interested, as should you be, in what his replacement is saying.

So if the Stay vote had won is he saying carillion would not have gone bust?

Worst type of socialist is that little bugger.

Benjamin (Jim/John/Chris) has more bullshit to the square foot than a beef shed.

Yeah reported in the Times this morning too and it added " there is a school of thought that all militant socialists really need is a bath , a haircut and to find themselves a nice girlfriend "
