Someone has been reading the Trump play book. I hope it goes better for them. Only trouble is Britain needs the EU a lot more than they need Britain. 

Absolute rubbish. The EU exports more to the UK than the UK exports to the EU. The balance of trade has always been that way

That only proofs that it is bad for both ,

E.U. export to U.K. in minus ?..... but supply import to U.K. then also in minus ….. high needed supply's to an Island ..hum hum …. how long take a Ship from X…? , or expensive air carriers from X…, shortages driving up prices , rarity's too...!

E.U. 27 to support each other as a unity  ….U.K  1 ….and Scotts getting more grumpy (and with reason ) 

 

Turbulent times ahead  I would say

If the mafia ruled EU gets bullyish with the UK,  trade options are always available with Libya, Irak, Iran or North Korea, with pleanty of money to make. The US should intervene and ask the EU bullies to keep their mouths down and open up a bit, the BREXIT may the the right thing or not, but it's for the UK people to decide and not any other bully nation in Europe or elsewhere...case closed.

LOL yes because you need it. You are either buying it somewhere else or in the EU. Guess what, no matter where you buy you still have a trade deficit, expect now you have to pay more for it in the UK because there will be customs duty.

 

Jeeeeez you guys are clowns if you think the UK will go back to growing all food etc themselves, but have fun in your future life as a pig farmer.

 

They should really teach more economy in school i guess...

You presume too much.  What you are saying is that powers who do not agree with your viewpoint should be silent, whereas powers that do should get fully involved.  It isn't difficult to poke holes in such thinking without referring to modern politic bingo.

 

If you are able to feel smarter than you did because of our earlier exchange then all power to you.

I guess your school should have stuck to clown training because they were no good at economics.

As your EU products increase in price due to customs duty, the alternative suppliers for products become more affordable, especially when we don’t have to apply EU protectionist tariffs to third countries.

The UK can source outside the EU, produce domestically, or simply buy fewer Of the more expensive EU products. The trade deficit reduces with any of these options.

The UK does not have to keep importing at the same levels as you seem to think.

Now, hope you are not getting upset as it is not my intent. Power my friend, is based on what you feel in you and not on any other external factor or rhetoric. Wish you a nice evening and please do have the last word.

Now one by one all start appearing what they so long hide for the U.K. population 

 

https://www.theguardian.com/business/2019/oct/08/uk-fishing-exports-48-hours-no-deal-brexit

UK fishing exports 'could be halted within 48 hours of no deal'

Lack of vets needed to stamp papers likely to delay lorries travelling to Calais, MPs told

 

The UK’s fishing fleets could face a de facto blockade within 48 hours of a no-deal Brexit, MPs have been told.

Representatives of the fishing industry said it was “a bit of an understatement” to describe the UK’s preparations for no deal as “a shambles”.

Not how any of this works. 

 

EU products are more expensive, yes for the UK peasant population. They will be the only ones who pay for this like we do here. 

 

Yeah just buy less food, raw materials, animals and livestock, pharma... A dream comes true. 

 

What forces the UK to import at these levels??? The EU¿¿¿

 

Yeah right absolutely no one except the citizens want to have these goods 

Nothing forces you to buy anything but you do because you want and need it. 

 

No because the UK is a service based economy with a large part being financial services consulting, r and d etc. in London but don't worry Frankfurt, Milan and Co don't mind this. 

 

80% of your economy is service based, but yet you guys are jerking off to rubbish like trade deficits, fishery and are looking to be pig farmers while skrewing your youth over.

The EU did not vote, but the possible scenari are for the moment only these 3, the 3rd one being the most risky for all  will probably be chosen.  

1/ Remain

2/ TM's deal

3/ No-deal

Nothing forces you to buy anything but you do because you want and need it. 

EU tariffs keep out cheaper products from many other countries. Try oranges for example. So the EU is effectively forcing the UK ‘peasants’ to import them from the EU at inflated prices.

As EU products increase in price, the want and need will reduce in favour of alternatively sourced products newly available to the UK consumer.

Watch the German car sales soon begin to plummet in the UK. Not before time too.

Hold man.  I understand your feelings.  We all feel like this, but it is caused by Cummings/BJ and their war of attrition.  The one point that they (brexit chaps) do have is it was probably never going to end well for the UK.  That is why it was so bloody stupid.  There you go- Tories putting party over country for half a decade on this matter alone.
