We were maybe still are the largest purchasers of Mercedes in the EU outside of Germany. Not a market they would want to loose I would have thought. I own 2 small-medium businesses with my main market the UK and secondary Germany and France. On the basis of what I feel and what my European customers tell me I don't expect my sales to change. On the basis of my UK business contacts I would say there are marginally more happy(I didn't say ecstatic ) punters than apprehensive. I don't know of anyone who is terrified. I see Brexit as a great opportunity for all business in the UK providing they grasp it with both hands. Of course I accept it won't all be plain sailing. http://trade.ec.europa.eu/doclib/docs/2011/august/tradoc_148181.pdf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are obviously irritated that what Mark Carney said in private ended up in the public domain. Not surprising, I doubt if any brexiteer wants to be told that brexit has cost the country £200 million a week already. Mark Carney was part of project Fear... his comments are not important. 4 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The parliament vote to trigger Art 50 did not bestow any powers on the referendum result whatsoever. The current major party in the UK parliament has bribed a number of MP's in an attempt to ensure that parliament will legislate in whatever way the unelected ministers decide. Its a numbers game and if it wasn't for rebels the unelected bureaucrats would always win. The unelected bureaucrats are in Brussels. That diarrhea must be contagious. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You would be correct in not relying too much on any news media. In the UK, a handful of giant corporations control the nation’s TV channels, news outlets, radio stations, search engines and social media platforms. This has given wealthy individuals and organisations huge political and economic power and enabled them to distort the media landscape to suit their interests and personal views. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you for pointing out my spelling mistake I used to have personal spell checker called Sgt Rock but he's not around. I'd be happy to appoint you? You get a hat and a biscuit for each spelling mistake. Now, interesting piece on Radio 4. It seems the first ever referendum was due to the fact that Harold Wilson was worried about a split Labour Party. Jenkins in the right corner and Benn in the left. Looks like Harold was more fortunate than Cameron! Interesting that Thatcher was so gung-ho!

Another theory is that the 1975 referendum was due to the fact that Harold Wilson was worried that entry into the EEC was illegal, as the British Constitution requires Parliament to consult the electorate directly, where constitutional change which would affect their political sovereignty, is in prospect. The 1975 referendum campaign leaflets can be seen here: http://www.civitas.org.uk/eu-facts/the-1975-referendum/ Amazing how much more close to the truth the NO campaign was. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Appalling behaviour by morons of course, but nowhere near as bad as the footage of the immigrants/refugees who deliberately pushed a German woman down the stairs in a 'tube' station - for no reason whatsoever, other than not being moslem (?).... Sadly, stupid idiots tend to become 'braver' () at 3.45 a.m.... - although the German woman was attacked during the daytime.... Even so, its largely irrelevant as stupid people have behaved extremely badly since long before brexit. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
