these figures are the facts that leave voters hate to see,these figures tell you that britain is not a producing nation even with the help of a shattered currency,brexit and labour will finish off most of the little thats left.

This is the result of being in the EUSSR for 40 years, not Brexit. Brexit hasn't even happened yet (and probably never will now Treason May is still in charge).

A Know-Nothing Hard Brexiteer analysis. One of many.

I've lived here for 14 years and  planning living here I didn't plan to just to exist.

twere no t'internets back in the day to get their half-baked nonsensical ideas from so it was fish-wife's gossip and blokes in the pub. Satisfying seeing their pathetic hard-Brexit fantasies going down in flames as fantasy meets hard reality. BETRAYED I tell yer' by TRAITORS...IGNORING THE WILL OF THE BRITISH PEOPLE. Whatever ......

Just give the war a miss, everyone else is over it.

Disagree, 51.9% aint, or weren't. This is a debate that has been long overdue. Everyone is denigrating it, but this is how democracy works. Bring it all out into the open - what would be playing behind closed doors in other countries is playing out in the open here.

I see the expected pound bounce once the Brexit madness has been kicked into the long grass may not bounce at all.

 

Reuters today are predicting just a 3% rise for an orderly deal or kicked into the long grass, and a further 5% drop for no deal. I remember posts on here predicting 10-20% pound gains if the Brexit lunacy was canned

 

3% - so 42 baht to the pound is your future chaps (until it falls that is)

Seems we will see a surge in ex pat bulldogs returning to the UK..clogging up the NHS and wanting housing,not what they voted for,the pound was going to surge after 3 months,  3 years later and they are still waiting

I voted to create more capacity in the NHS, and potentially additional funding.

 

Who said the Pound would surge before we left?

 

 

I think you are telling fibs again

Plenty of brexiteers in my local predicted a surge in the pound after the vote that has now changed to after a no deal,how strange...the owl on here predicted 50bt within 3 months of a no deal a few weeks back...message him if you think iam fibbing.i was talking to a guy yesterday very high up in the NHS and asked him is brexit better or worse he said no difference but supplies were a worry with a no deal,he also said the £350 million a week was total rubbish.

A bit like leave voters saying everything will be just fine despite the majority admiting the economy will take a hit. Even the educated ones admit this,its expected down spoonies.

Who is going to treat that extra capacity when European doctors aren't welcome and the foreign nurses have gone home ?

 

'Potentially additional funding' ??? But surely its getting an extra £350m a week right ?

 

Potentially correct Benny boy.

 

Who said European doctors would not be welcome ? ...... non-Europeans as well.

Only an idiot believed that 350m was going into the NHS........ it was stated that 350k was available to help better fund the NHS....

 

 

Feel free to keep hanging your limp arguments on one bus poster.

 

If you believe that the current GBP/THB exchange rate sits where it sits, purely on economic grounds, then you know little about markets and how they react to uncertainty..

only an idiot would talk such lies, as for the pound we know how they reacted to leave winning,exactly like they said they would ie clobber the pound,they are threatening exactly the same with a no/bad deal/crash out and more of the same is almost certain,as for economic grounds you will rarely find a country up the creek economically where its currency remains strong,possible yes but highly unlikely,i would say YOU are the one who knows very little and doing your damndest to blame brexit.

Is that it ? Did you get cut off mid flow before getting to the point ?


The point is that if people knew how currencies were going to move they would be incredibly wealthy and would not print their predictions.

Do you have a knowledge of money markets then ?

A sort of only a bit when I checked Thai baht to£ history 18 years ago planning my retirement.

Only one person the Klingon is who take notice of on TV.
