Brexit’s Legacy Still Divides Britain a Decade Later

Of course.

It's a shame it wasn't implemented properly but like I said that was deliberate.

Maybe when Reform get in?

Rinse and repeat.

In a previous thread, you agreed with my (sarcastic) suggestion that a 'proper Brexit implementation' would have entailed removing all EU laws from the UK statute book.

What could have possibly gone wrong.

Odd that you use sarcasm yet cannot detect it in others Raymond.

Although you've never been the most perceptive.

Look at what pushed the UK to want Brexit in the first place. Also look at how other UE countries are almost bankrupt and in far worse shape like France or Italy and even Germany is catching up the bankrupcy and failure of the European Union.

That's very general and largely unrelated to Brexit. It sounds like manage the country a little bit better (which can certainly be done). Nothing prevented any government from lowering taxes or welfare budget before Brexit, apart from import tariffs. Do you advocate for lowering current import tariffs?

Moreover, in order to make a difference, the low tax/low welfare should be significant. Do you think people living in the North, who voted Brexit because they had been left behind by the guys in the City, would approve a liberal economics policy? The type of policy which will make them easier to get fired, and reduce the amount of welfare they get, while the guys working for the 'City' will make even more money than before?

Finally, '"better negotiators" is just wishful thinking. There is no reason why a middle economic power could get better deals than a large economic power such as the EU.

Tua sententia, non mea.

Ah, so we shouldn't simply remove all 'EU laws' from the statute book?

I think that it is understandable that I took you at face value, Jonathan, as I've lost count of the number of times I've asked you to explain what the 'proper' Brexit looks like and this was the only direct answer that I received (other than leave the ECHR; something that was possible when we were in the EU and has no bearing on Brexit).

Anyway, now that we are back at square one, I'll ask for the umpteenth+1 time: How should Brexit has been implemented?

Excellent documentary about the effects of Brexit for anyone who has a couple of hours to spare

Alex Forsyth looks at the impact of Britain's decision to leave the European Union

It only divides Britain on the Remain side, they haven't stopped whinging since they lost the vote even though we've never properly left. It's only left wingers and Tory wets who want to remain and the reason is obvious, the EC is a huge socialist edifice under the control of a central unelected body. A globalist's wet dream.

You clearly are ignorant of the latest opinion polls showing clearly that the majority in the UK want to return to the EU. And eventually we will. You brexiteets constantly whinge about our supposed lack of implementation of brexit as the reason why it has failed miserably but have never clearly defined what your idea of a truly successful brexit would be.
