 Wait ,  it will be much lower sooner than later ..

British pound.. up to one ounce...

Just think about £288,9 exports TO the EU in 2018 , now worth - 1,45 % = £ 4,189 Billion less

Imports FROM the EU to UK: £ 353,0 now +1,45 higher = £ 5,118 Billion paid more

A difference of £ 9,3 BILLION pounds.. in ONE day… about the UK contribution to the EU per YEAR.

It’s difficult to defend accusations of ignorance as being unfounded slurs when nonsense like this turn up.

 

 

Im sorry but Brexit is being delayed because the para military thugs are theatening a return to the 'troubles' which included bombing the mainland.  This is the reality behind the back stop nonsense. 'If we dont get our own way we will resort to terrorism again' . Since the GFA the EU was never never mentioned as contributing to the peace process...until now.

Works for me.  Wales is also entitled to have a referendum as to whether it would prefer to separate - and be part of the eu, rather than the uk.
 
Somehow I doubt this will work in the remainers' favour, bearing in mind the Welsh voters also largely voted to 'leave'.
 
Not to mention the eu isn't showing any genuine enthusiasm towards a separate Scotland, so likely far less enthusiasm towards a separate Wales....

The EU wouldn’t be able to afford all the handouts for Scotland, Northern Ireland and Wales too. When the UK contribution has gone they haven’t got enough for their current subsidy junkies.
No wonder the EU has no real enthusiasm. Best solution is for Ireland to get out too. They milked the EU cow for years and made a fortune. Now it’s time to pay some back, that’s another incentive to cut and run.

How you think the EU with 450 mln consumers will respond when the UK with 67 mln consumers get a better deal ?

on your last point if they had any sense the 450 mil consumers would demand a referendum and that,d be the eu gone for a burton.

Didn't the Brexiteers say that once the UK voted to leave, other countries would soon follow?

Three years later there's no sign of that happening.

Obviously the 450 million consumers have sense.

Greece ruined herself with rampant corruption, theft and ridiculous welfare system. People at 55 on pension, the working population is on 'siesta' for half of their shift with almost zero production and earning similar monies to Germans before the crash. Of course they had to pay up sooner or later.  Shouldn't blame euro for that.

The Greeks were allowed to join the EU and adopt the Euro, despite the fact that Greece did not satisfy the EU's own economic criteria - that is the EU's fault. I agree that Greece was also guilty but the EU seem to be more concerned with expansion, but with simultaneous centralization and control, than with much else.

In fact Europe wide a poll said that 80% of Europeans want to stay in the EU - Brexit has taught them a stern lesson in posturing even Marie Le Pen has gone back to the fold. Funny that - the Brexiteers wanted to bring on European chaos so they could say I told you so we're well shut of it. Project Fear. They have learnt nothing from history with their ignorant,selfish,intemperate xenophobia. Thank god a goodly majority of the British like Churchill don't share these views.

Not really funny - no choice - nowhere to run - banks rely on loans from the ECB in Euros - they're screwed.

Well at least you are consistent with your one line message Mr Loiner - barking as it is. 

 

Anyway let's get some HK Chinese in with education , money and an ability to graft. The right wing Adam Smith Institute is flying a kite for another immigrant wave - should warm the hearts of little Englander Brexiteers.

Woof woof mate. This Remainer created dog’s breakfast is almost over. We’ll be running around like a dog with two from November.

I'll put this sentence in a frame to make laugh at the pub.

Shall I translate it for you? How many others will you need, the rest of the 26?

You cannot pass your lack of understanding on to others.

 

The peace process in Northern Ireland has been receiving financial support from the EU since 1989, through both EU regional policy and EU contributions to the International Fund for Ireland (IFI).

"recieving financial support from the eu"? what a fraction of what we,d paid in?

its the remainers that are making people suffer,if they,d have accepted a democratic vote 3 years ago we,d have been well on the way to recovery "we want a deal" the eu are sitting back laughing at the uk,and won,t give us sweet fa until we leave,

And if the UK leaves with no deal as Johnson is pressing, what situation will the UK be in, come November 1st?

 The only country in the world with no trade deals outside the WTO apart from Mauritania.

Johnson, what an idiot.

For those of you not familiar with Mauritania, it’s GDP is $4,714million (0.2% of the UK’s), 50% of its exports consist of Iron Ore, and between 1% and 17% of the population still live in slavery.
