Whether you like it or not, the leaflet we all had pushed through our doors is the canvas we are working to, not some old masterpiece you may have stashed in your attic.

Thanks to the EU, since the end of World War II, there has been peace within Europe (except for the collapse of Yugoslavia).
EU member states could save a shitload of money by jointly developing and using the same defense systems.

There are many ways to control a country's borders, and how "hard" a border is, is the prerogative of the two countries involved. In this case, both countries have stated that in no circumstances do they want to have a hard border. So yes, if Britain just left tomorrow with a no deal, the reality is, people on all sides would have their minds sharpened to come up with a solution in ways they haven't been so far, otherwise, what exactly is the EU going to do? Set up its own hard border? Please, get real.

In fear of becoming to sound like Lloyd Grosman (excuse spelling), lets look at the evidence, would I be correct in saying that the people had their vote 2 years ago, would I be also correct in saying that the country as a whole voted to leave the EU. So that must in conclusion mean that if there was to be another vote it would not be a peoples vote, purely on the understanding that the leavers are quite happy with the vote they had two years ago, it would be infact a remainers vote or a losers vote, take your pick.

Totally wrong 27-28 % of the country?=UK as a whole voted to leave.37% of the electorate voted leave.

I wouldn't worry about it too much, if you havn't got it by now, you're never going to get it.

The Tories have made such a mess out of Brexit that it is becoming quite a sweet deal for the EU: trade as before, no more British influence in Brussels, financial contributions as before, “level playing field” so no trade deals between UK and rest of the world that are much different from EU deals, EU agencies relocating to Paris/Amsterdam, financial services partially relocating...
Any other advantages for the EU27 that I forgot?

Brexit just keeps on giving!

Ireland would setup the hard border, of course, to not risk getting fined for not controlling the EU external borders. So, before you’re telling someone to “get real”, you better do that yourself: As long as Ireland is an EU member, it is not just “two countries involved” but the EU (incl. Ireland) and the UK. And the EU, fortunately, takes protecting the single market seriously, as we can see with the EU fining the UK 2bn over letting in illegal Chinese goods ( https://www.theguardian.com/world/2017/mar/08/uk-faces-2bn-fine-over-chinese-imports-scam-say-eu-anti-fraud-investigators). 

 

Of course, you can deny that, same as you denied that the UK would be worse and so many other things that everyone told you but you denying it. Your Brexit is a phantasy product built on phantasies.

Italy’s problems are of their own making, they have borrowed too much and are suffering as a consequence ... they chose to join the Euro and agree to the fiscal guidelines. The EU did not force them into debt, they did.

I do not believe for one minute you actually mean that. You post to provoke sometimes, you are not stupid and you have more sense than believe such hogwash. However, again if we look at who is posting what, the nonsense posts do seem to eminate from the remainers, only a percentage, but not a small percentage. The majority of remainers do normally act with decorum, but you have in your crowd some that will post anything that will offend and it doesn't bother them, why, well quite possibly they are not as bright as you would like.

The one person I have been watching carefully since the Referendum vote has been Liam Fox and it is conspicuous that he has laid his cards on the table by supporting May’s withdrawal deal and not his fellow hard Brexiters.

 

It gives the impression the trade secretary tasked with creating favourable new free trade deals, and which he stated were ‘the easiest thing in the world to arrange’, has found them to not exist. It certainly hasn’t been the case with the EU as he insisted it would.

 

Over the past two years he would have been shouting his success at every opportunity about the new deals he has drummed up elsewhere had they existed. The fact that he is not pushing for May to follow a hard Brexit is the key and his silence is deafening.

 

People really should analyse ALL the information coming out regarding our future economic situation and not simply bury their heads in the sand by following the two-issue ideology constantly promoted by the Brexiters (controlling immigration and taking back control).

 

Project Fear is turning into Project Reality with each passing day.

At the moment it’s just a Draft agreement. And from what is now becoming clear, is that 4 or 5 senior members of the cabinet have decided to remain in their position, in the hope that they can pressurize T.May into either, making the E.U compromise on a couple of points, or failing that,they will resign from the cabinet. Therefore only time will tell what is actually happening behind closed doors.

 In the meantime a number of Conservative M.P’s have returned to their constituencies, to be told by their local officials, that they should follow the wish of their constituents and the country as a hold, and demand that T.May adheres to her promise to implement the electorates decision.

Your Right to Know:

Could well be, with the full backing of their Bureaucrats.

Will the British customs man receive the same backing should they decide to copy the French officials.
