Popular Post WineOh Posted November 3, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted November 3, 2020 (edited) Let's have it then. Is this the scenario you all really wanted from the off? Shutting the doors to our closest trading partners? Millions of people are going to suffer from the acute affects of a no deal brexit, not least the foolhardy brits back home. But it seems that many of whom I have spoken to want this. They want destruction of Europe and the tight bonds that have been made over the last 50 years. They don't want freedom of movement through Europe. They don't want ease of relocating to Spain or Portugal, they want arduous visa processes. They want a plummeting pound against the Euro. They want to apply for Visas when going for their annual 2 week holiday to Benidorm. They want to be on WTO terms. They want to 'Take Back Control' whilst simultaneously losing all control of their front doorstep. They want more expensive food in the shops. They want the price of petrol to go up. They want difficult access to medicines. They want to be ruled by an authoritarian right wing outfit. They want to make their own like, like reinstating capital punishment. They want all the joys that a no deal brexit is about to bestow upon them. How about you lot? Is this what you really wanted all along?

By now I think they deserve it. I understand some people were uninformed when the voted in 2016. But there was no excuse in 2019 anymore when they voted for Boris - even when the alternative was not exactly great. It seems some people have to experience by themselves what they lose. And then maybe after a change of government someone will get the idea that being part of the EU wouldn't be a bad idea. Let's wait a few years. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just wait until the severity of what they have chosen finally sets in. There will soon be a 'Let us back in' movement on the streets of London. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is this what you really wanted all along? I suspect this isn't want the majority of "Brexiteers" wanted, but I suspect very few will admit that they got it wrong, it's not just Asians that are scared to "lose face". There are no leavers and remainers anymore, we've left the EU now so we're all leavers by default, and those who voted to leave really need to accept the fact and to stop blaming those who had an apposing view when they don't get the promised land they were expecting. I suspect we will reach a compromise, with those who voted to leave crying foul. A couple of questions I would like to ask, what EU rules that our MEP's played a part in implementing don't we want and what exactly is an "Australian type deal". 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be honest does it really affect Brits that are no longer part of the UK. ? Its like voting if you vote consider yourself Scottish Irish /welsh or English and have such high opinions about the UK then move back there and do something about it. Stop bitching from the side lines. If iBrexit happens and its a no deal then so be it we will just have to live with it and get on with it those of us that are in the UK i mean. To many experts on these forums that have chosen not to live in the UK so let the real people of the UK get on with it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luckyluke Posted November 3, 2020 Share Posted November 3, 2020 There are some who believe that "the seven plagues" will hit the U.K.. Others a kind of " Leibnizian Optimism ", being that the U.K. will be the best of all countries. I suppose there will be some kind of " Juste Millieu " ( middle way ).

Many, many people "can't be informed".....that's the problem. Watch any of the random high street interviews with the general public.....OMG! They shouldn't be allowed out, never mind allowed a vote. The vast majority voted on the basis of what they read in the Express and the Mail.....sad. Edited November 3, 2020 by Surelynot 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course it impacts people who no longer live in the UK both Financially (Weaker pound, poorer performance of investments etc...) & Personally (impact on family who do still live there, prospects for children etc...) 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Long term effects: Return to Commonweath trading. Cheaper Chinese goods. Boost for fishing industry. Revamping sea-side towns.
