I don't know why England would cancel Brexit. It's simply still possible to do so. 

 

I understood that there were less than required 100.000 pounds donated by the exited brexit supporters to make the necessary preparations to make the Big Ben Bong. 

 

I'm sure Small John will make a noise of his own, once the time come.

No matter how much was raised they wouldn't have allowed it and they stopped fund raising when that was realised, Your figures are wrong but that seems to be a remainers mantra for the last 4 years.

 

It stopped at 150,000 pound as it was pointless because of the remainer establishment.

Any zero traffic deal will - in the framework of a WTO-compatible Free Trade Agreement - cover only products ‘originating’ in the UK/EU, which entails origin certification/verification. Not quite the same as the free circulation of goods within the Customs Union.

Not to mention the WTO is primarily a trade in goods agreement and the UK economy is driven by I believe 80% services... so WTO only covers (not well) 20%.    One of the selling points was that after leaving they would be able to do there own agreements... but the fact is that 50% of the trade... is with Europe.   They UK starts with a lack of experience negotiating international trade agreements, they start with zero agreements... your average trade agreement takes 7+ years to negotiate and all those EU based trade arrangements will cease to be.   Leaving because you want to be an island unto yourself is one thing... but I would ask that people not be delusional about how rosy things will suddenly be.

So, all the nastiness kicks in Dec 31?

 

And when we get to Dec 31 we'll have another discussion so you can move the goalpost again. Ok. 

How is it possible that you cant understand this simple proposition, Nothing has changed until Dec31 other than the fact that the UK no longer has a seat on the table.

Well, I guess we've finally arrived at B-Day. If remainers are to be believed, beginning at midnight, we can expect the following:

 

1. No international flights will be able to land in the UK

2. Immediate shortage of medicines

3. Immediate food shortage resulting in mass starvation

4. Riots, looting and political turmoil

5. Financial collapse and stock market crash

6. All European citizens kicked out of the country, effective immediately (especially the non-white ones)

7. Chaos at our borders

8. Streets of London will be deserted

9. Super gonorrhea outbreaks in UK

 

And Brexiteers are the ones being compared to "The People's Front of Judea"...? 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Not a problem the remainders are only 48% of the British population, a trifle!  

OMG, those Brits don't get unlimited peoples from the former Communist Block. They hat your guts and are still determined to follow old USSR teachings. Send them home, Britiain isn't their home. 

Personally I do not feel very concerned by this brexit ???? The only thing that I hope and that will make me happy is to recover a blue British passport ????

So, the fiercely pro-EU and anti-Trump Kim Darroch speaks about Trump making Brexit difficult? What a surprise... ????

He didn’t speak about making Brexit ‘difficult’, he outlined inevitable consequences of the UK going looking for a trade deal cap-in-hand to Trump’s America .

 

Or have you not yet figured out what Trump meant when he said ‘America First’?!

All stay same as before until Dec.2020 when the independence kick's in... in real time, then changes starting ,now all as usual , but with the benefit we got rid of Farage in the E.U assembly 

Britain reminds EU leaders.. no deal, no army, SAS, intelligence, offshore banking or fishing rights.

should we understand the UK was expecting same benefits as before... what kind of brain these people have. I am not a member of the golf club, don't pay membership fees,  but when I visit the club house I expect the same services as the paying members have (dreaming) 555

No membership, no Benefits.
Status similar the EU has with the Ukraine.

Means translated:
Chief EU negotiator Michel Barnier told envoys of the remaining 27 members earlier on Wednesday that a loose association agreement like the EU has with Ukraine should serve as the basis for new relations, diplomatic sources said.

Well done. You won. Now deliver on all the promises that you guys made to get that win.

See this is where the real work begins. You will no longer be able to blame anyone but yourselves when the realities of what you have won start to emerge.

In 5 years time I suspect many of you are going to be wondering just what the hell you actually did.

And on what evidence do you base your very suspect supposition ????

BJ has different ideas and that would create a clash with EU

Try to think of it as two golf clubs, if you let us play on your course, you can play on ours too. The only difference is our golf club subscriptions are not £14 billion a month.

That comment reminds me about the English going on about winning the world cup, 40 years after the event...move on, the bus discussion has been done to death and widely known that the so called educated remainders can't even comprehend their own language.
