BTW: I still haven't received any replies to a previous question that I posed to Brexiters: 'What exactly do you mean by the EU?' Any answers to that question would be a bonus. Thanks.

  European Union ?

Or was that a trick question ?

No, it was not.

That is what the extremists made of it.

  Didnt you read what was written on the referendum ballot paper ?

Stay or leave was the only question asked

As a migrant.

   Too late for all that , we voted to leave , up to our Government exactly how we leave .

BTW, we have left already

I agree - about straightforward , simple and not complicated.

 

Time for some advanced algebra

 

52% voted leave.

If 95% of the leavers wanted to leave under whatever conditions, including No Deal,

 

Then...... the no dealers were a minority: 48% remainers + (5% of 52% = 2,6%) = 50,2% against No Deal.

 

Sorry to bother you with things you do not understand, and on top of that: algebra is an arab invention, so cannot be trusted.

   Lets keep it simply , the majority voted to leave and leave only .

There was no other option to vote half leave and half stay .

It was either stay or leave

indeed, if Boris was so convinced that WTO deal was the best way to go, why did he keep coming back to the negotiating table?

 

and was desperate enough to reach out Macron and Merckel in the 11th hour ????

  It is considered that it would be better to have a trade deal with the E.U. , if that doesnt materialise, we can fall back to WTO trading rules 

Just listening to what the Urban dictionary says 

  Nowadays the term "gyppo", like "pikey", is often used as an insult to refer to anyone who is perceived to be poor, dirty, smelly and/or inclined to theft.

If you want tariff- free access to a market, you have to play by that market's rules, especially when you're a lot smaller than the market.

Is that so difficult to understand?

  If the E.U wants tariff free access to the UK markets , they will have to reciprocate aswell

Yes u are.

  If you have no argument left, just call the other person a racist and a bigot and turn the discussion around to the other person and make him defend himself .

  That ploy got old a while ago 

Just now, oldhippy said:

Does every other country have visa free travel to the EU?

Does every other country have the right to export vegetables covered in pesticides? - or does every other country have to respect our regulations?

  Are the UK asking for E.U citizens to get visa free ravel to the E.U ?

Is the UK asking the EU to accept vegetable covered in pesticide ?

Is the UK asking for special treatment or just to be treated like other Countries ?

Brexit:

 

A story about having a cake AND eat it.

  No, its about the UK wanting to have the same agreements as every other Country , rather than the E.U giving us a bad deal , them being upset because we left them

A day for predictions it seems. Mine is that Johnson will not adhere to this deadline and the negotiations will continue for some days yet.  He hasn't got the guts to call time on it and is still desperately hoping for a deal.  Actually the right thing to do but it does make him look pretty pathetic given all the bravado he has pushed for so long.

  After four years of talking and negotiations , its time to realise there will not be an agreement and to both walk away

1 minute ago, Hi from France said:

not at all : there was and is still a whole range of opinions: those who wanted to "completely leave" are a minority. 

 

Do you need a reminder of the promises that were made to voters?

 

  OK, I am willing to listen , what percentage of leavers wanted to "completely leave " ?

I take it you know the answer to that and that you are telling the truth , I would have to think you were lying.

So, what percentage of leavers wanted to leave completely ?

so why is the French PM telling otherwise

  I will google that for you, wait right there , dont go away..................

(The French PM talking about tourists)

If you are resident in France before 31 December 2020, you will be able to stay.

You must apply online for the new residency permit before 1 July 2021, in line with the Withdrawal Agreement. You need to have your new residency permit before 1 October 2021.

All UK nationals resident in France need to apply for the new residency permit. This includes UK nationals:

That might have been a 'tongue in cheek' comment(?), but imo it contains more than an element of truth.

 

The Tories might not 'allow' Labour to win, but the Tory grandees probably wouldn't be too unhappy about losing in 2024. Whoever wins that election faces a thankless task dealing with the fallout from Brexit and Covid.

   Hopefully the UK will have made a recovery by the next general election in 2024

but you don't have any fact to support your comment or do you

  Posted above .

All E.U residents in the UK are allowed to stay and all UK residents in the E.U are also allowed to stay there , long as they have applied .

  Havent you been following the proceedings either ?

If you are legally resident in Spain before the transition period ends on 31 December 2020, you will be able to stay. You must register as a Spanish resident if you want to stay in Spain for more than 3 months. Children must also be registered with their own residency document.

If you are living in Spain before 1 January 2021 and register as a resident after 6 July 2020, you will be issued with a biometric residence card called a Tarjeta de Identidad de Extranjero (TIE). This card will prove your rights under the Withdrawal Agreement

https://www.gov.uk/guidance/living-in-spain#visas-and-residency

The Spanish government also announced it is making plans for the event of a no deal Brexit. The intention is to “globally” preserve the rights of British citizens in Spain, “considering that they have made vital decisions believing in the European project,” says a government statement.

The plan is to establish a system allowing them to transition from the current to a future legal status. There will also be measures to guarantee social security rights, healthcare and the recognition of professional qualifications for both British nationals in Spain and Spaniards in the UK.

  Its been well publicised , havent you been following these last few years?

there is no such thing as sovereign territory when it comes to global trades, this is not 1750

 

you can't have both, it's that simple

 

hence pipedream ????

   You can indeed have both .

A Sovereign nation makes its own rules and laws

A Sovereign nation can agree to make trade and other deals with whatever Country they decide to.

There is no discrepancy between to two .

I agree with you, complete waste of time, but if we hadn't, you 2 face liar politicians would have come back a few months later claiming that they needed more time and weren't given that time by the evil EU, and would have tell their gullible population how it was all the EU fault for the chaos that followed the hard brexit

 

friends don't let friends backstab themselves ????

  I do wish you would stop calling people liars , that playground level discussion

You Brexiteers need to get your act together and start singing from the same hymn sheet.

One of you is saying Brexit is about immigration and you are saying its not about immigration.

 

My meagre pension? I retired aged 47. Will you be retired by the time you reach that age? Assuming you are not past it already?

But of course a weak pound suits you doesnt it? Sitting over here getting paid in Baht while demanding others face the pain of Brexit. 

  No, we all have differing opinions and reasons for voting Brexit .

IMO, immigration needed to be controlled , other people may or may not think likewise .
