Brexit is an illusion. European integration is a fact. Deeply integrated supply chains will not just change over night. British consumers will not just change over night. Criminals will not just change over night. There will be enormous pressure from all angles to strike a deal even after this deadline. In fact, the pressure will increase with each and every day. Expect that these negotiations will continue. 3

Because what you call “doom-mongering” isn’t doom mongering; there will be consequences of a no-deal Brexit, and those suffering from it will lobby for change. Not everyone has “sovereignty” as their ultimate goal. 1 1

Are you unaware that if there isnt a trade deal between the UK and the E.U , we can still continue trading under WTO rules and regulations ?

There is nothing to stop Brits living in Spain and France returning to the UK . As long as they have applied for residency in those Countries and adhere to the residency rules , thay can stay as long as they like and come and go as they please . As I recall foreign residents living in the UK had to visit the UK at least once every two years to keep that residency

By voting againgst and/or abstaining on everything put in front of them is the reason we are at this juncture today. Take some responsibility for once and accept that democracy has triumphed in the UK. Long live democracy. I remind you that your avitar voted against the deal too. 2

People keep thinking we have to get a deal...it's a no brainer.......but the Tories will not be damaged in the same that the hard working man in the street will be or huge industries and their shareholders. As Boris said '<deleted> business' and he meant it. This is just a game to the Tories....... all reliving the war and dreaming of past empires.....pathetic.

There wont be another Iron Curtain going up This is my first post on the topic but it doesn't take an iron curtain to affect trade. Just a 10 per cent tariff can distort trade decisions and make something that was previously profitable become unprofitable. So many decisions the EU have made have distorted trade to the point where it was cheaper for Africans to buy canned tomatoes from Italy when, if there was free trade, they would make there own and be exporting to Europe. But that's a different topic.
