A pound is still a pound and it’s still £1.99 a pint for John Smiths in Wetherspoons.
There have been no noticeable increases in prices even for imported goods, except possibly a new Porsche which went up immediately.
When we import from around the world without EU tariffs many prices will decrease.

It is already clear to me that many Brexiteers only measure the UK price increase rate on the beer price for John Smiths in Wetherspoons.

Is nice if you can live in this one-dimensional pink cotton ball.

 

It is obvious that 83% of big business leaders are idiots and only the visitors of wetherspoon have the Stone of Wisdom in their hands.

The nation didn't vote for a no deal Brexit. They voted in an advisory referendum and a slight majority of those who voted expressed a wish to leave the EU. 

 

The current government, ruling party, opposition and minor parties that make up the House of Commons have completely mismanaged and fcked it up ever since whilst displaying a spineless self interest in anything other than their own greedy little future.

Big business is pro EU and not concerned about people.

 

Brexiteers are not only wise, they have the John Smith's too!

The sad part is the really do believe the drivel and nonsense that they've been spoon fed by Boris, Farage et al!

 

As if the same clowns who've still got no plan are gonna magic all these fantastic trade deals on the back of a fag packet in sparrow's fart time!

 

Absolutely no idea about the detail and complexities.

You have to find the right pub to drink that.

 

Personally my favourite was Bass, best pint ever, but hard to find it now.

I'm sorry that you still seem to believe that leavers were influenced so much by the leave (and remain) campaign stuff? This issue goes way beyond trade deals and I am sure most of us cannot know all of the complexities.

 

But remaining in the EU will not keep the status quo that many remainers seem to assume will continue. If the EU is unchecked now, then it will morph quickly into something very different and it is unlikely that there will be the same chance to quit again in the future. This is why most of us voted out.

Britain joined the EU in 1973 and left behind its old commonwealth trading ties, replacing them with new EU ones. I don't remember any project fear then or financial instability during the change over. It was a smooth transition.
Now when Britain is about to leave, we're told the world will end and Britain's economy will collapse. If the UK could join with no financial instability, why couldn't it leave in a similar manner?
I do believe though that if the UK does ever eventually leave, the globalists will try to collapse Britain's economy so it is forced to rejoin at a later date as a warning to other member states.

UK cannot commence actual negotiations with Commonwealth countries until after exiting the EU. Usually FTAs take years to finalise negotiations. Regards non Commonwealth countries e.g. USA - UK trade agreement after Brexit, currently not looking good...

I have spoken to a lot of non UK Europeans in Thailand. Most of them have reported that the focus that we have shone on the economic idiocy of Brexit, has put huge numbers of their fellow countrymen completely off the idea.

Spineless then as they must like being shafted by the Germans. Luckily Brits have more backbone. What a great organisation it is if you are punished for leaving or have the nerve to say well thanks but not anymore. I guess it is mostly Europeans complaining who will miss our contributions. The USA are in the EU they are fine as are many others.

The constant bombardment from others telling 17.4 million people you are wrong and stupid and tedious. Whoever you voted for, in whatever country doesn't give you the right to tell others they are wrong or even worse.

Until “big business” has moved all the jobs away from those people they’re “not concerned about”.

Good point and you may be right about efforts to collapse the economy (although it looks like these have already begun). That we cannot leave easily just shows the difference between the EEC of 1973 and the EU of 2019, especially politically.

They've been doing that for years.

No. That was another bent judge.

Do you evidence of the judge being bent or is this a baseless libelous accusation?

As the case is ongoing, I can't release any information.

The case isn’t ‘ongoing’, it’s been ruled as ‘without merit’.

I believe there are still many thousands of jobs that “big business” provides to the people.

Gone to appeal.

Big business has been doing that to UK workers, aided by the EU. Where it can’t move the jobs, it has been importing cheaper EU wage slaves.

As evidence is doing the rounds despite the media embargo your gloating is somewhat premature.

So you are saying that the leave winners of the Brexit vote are either brain dead or Black Shirts....Hmmmmmm, well perhaps it's time you looked in the mirror whilst sitting....

Presenting the detail for the benefit of the board was relatively easy. Understanding it requires a little bit of input at the receiving end. Constantly falling short is your forte but cannot be blamed on anyone else.
