The best possible outcome of this mess is Irish reunification and Scottish independence. **rubbing hands** 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Put in place by the Conservative establishment,who also are remainers, with the intention of overriding the Democratic wish of the British people. I am on your side but when you say the tories are remainers that is not true . TM's party have many who oppose her deal because it does not reflect the wish of the Brexit majority and comes nowhere near to what the UK citizens voted for which was complete independence from the E.U. that has grown to a bunch of non elected E.U. mp's in control of Europe and imposing their rules and laws on countries that are changing the whole culture and ways of life for the worse . And lets face it immigration was at the forefront of Brexit voters decisions because the whole structure of the UK is crumbling due to mass out of control immigration . I think a transition period for the divorce has to be and finally ending up with a clean cut with the UK back to be self governing . However how we are going to get there is anyone's guess . I really believe that TM is suffering mentally and should be sectioned for the good of the country . 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The days of the British empire is long gone and today your nation of 60+ mill. needs Europe's 450(ish) mill. far more than Europe needs you. Let me repeat; faaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaar more. Nothing to do with time warps. The UK has often helped keep the bankrupt EU afloat. We will see, as far as I recall the EU exports faaaaaaaaaar more goods to the UK than it imports.

We will see, as far as I recall the EU exports faaaaaaaaaar more goods to the UK than it imports. Who needs who more ? Far be it from me to give anyone advise on how to make meaningful comparisons from statistics, but there is a totally basic point being missed here. It is pretty irrelevant how much the relative exports are in absolute terms, what matters is how much that means to the two parties. The £274 billion exports of goods and services to other EU countries were worth 13.4% of the value of the British economy in 2017. It’s been at around 12-15% over the past decade. Exports from the rest of the EU to the UK were worth about 3-4% of the size of the remaining EU’s economy in 2016. In simple terms they (The rEU) are so much larger than us, that the proportional effect on them is much smaller than it is on us. We need them more than they need us, obviously, which is why it doesn't matter which deranged Hard Brexiteer was negotiating, Bojo, JRM, or whoever, the answer would be the same. The big joke is that there are plenty of people who are still talking about getting better terms like the DUP. It's just a meaningless pitch to their core voters, the answer was NO, though it suits some politicians not to recognize this.

anon676545345 Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 Here’s a pragmatic view of what would happen if the terms of the referendum are met and we actually leave the EU (no one voted for a deal it was leave or remain). As you can see it’s nothing like the Armageddon the BBC propaganda predicts, no recession just a small short term dip in GDP. https://www.businessinsider.com/no-deal-brexit-impact-uk-economy-2018-7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
