Interesting development as long as it would be a reasonable compromise. Thoughts! |

I for one never voted for Brexit simply to stop free movement, David Cameron couldn't get enough compromise when he tried, so we had a referendum, lets ruddy stick to it. We want to rule ourselves and not be accountable to the EU or be dictated to by them. |

Brexit will destroy the economy (amongst other things) of the UK. Our economy isn't in a great state as it is but this will be nothing compared to the economic crash we'll experience once we're properly out of the EU, especially if Theresa May survives long enough to be at the helm through the 'negotitations'. If it goes anything like her 'guaranteed landslide' Election victory that she ballsed right up recently then Britain is doomed. Hopefully the powers that be will see sense and stop the madness before it's too late. |

You do realize that it will cost us BILLIONS just to leave the EU right Arista ?
And then there's the many billions in subsidies and grants that we receive from the EU every year that we won't any more and the all Banks and Businesses/Companies that have left the UK in fear of the negative impact of Brexit and many more that will follow suit once we actually leave. We'll be at far greater risk from terrorism too and crime as we will no longer have the same close links with Police Forces throughout Europe. Those obsessed with 'Immigration' and closing our borders are gonna' be sorely dissappointed too because this just won't happen but for the many British people who like to come and go as they like and emigrate to Spain, France and Italy (amonst other European Countries) things will be far more difficult. We stand to gain so little and lose so very, very much. It's going to be an absolute disaster for this country in so many ways! |

You Are Aware that we can walk out No Deal - no money paid. There are many options lets see what happens by 2019 March I can handle a Walk Out I love AsdaWalmart & M&S And I trade with China and USA. Feel The Force Last edited by arista; 16-07-2017 at 04:32 AM. |

There's a lot of ''I'' in there. You should be thinking about the ''we'' as in the British people, the elderly, the poorest people. You know Asda and M&S aren't the most affordable places to shop.
'No Deal' really isn't a viable option at all under any circumstance and any political party knows that walking away without a deal would mean political suicide for them and financial devastation for the Country. You seem to have a very simplistic idea of what leaving the EU will actually mean in real terms. Probably why we're in the mess we are right now. |

AsdaWalmart
undercuts the Bigger Tesco. And No Deal is in the Card Pack the EU will not allow our deal (no pick and mix permitted etc) The Labour and Conservative both want free trade EU says NO. So No Deal is Fine. Sorry for all the "I"'s And I am thinking of of the Young in the England /Wales they will get more WORK. Or get no cash. Poor Folk can ignore the M&S and go to the AsdaWalmart or Lidl or Aldi UK Last edited by arista; 16-07-2017 at 05:42 AM. |

That is opinion , nothing more. Others will follow suit as many other EU countries want out, I have posted enough articles about it. If you think there are no Issues with the EU then you are blind. No-one knows for sure what will happen when we leave, except you it seems. At least if we have to pay to get out, and we shouldn't as that is about the EU trying to stop us, it is a one-off payment unlike the 350bn a year we are paying in membership fees. We and other EU countries are paying billions to immigrants, the vast majority of whom are on benefits and likely will remain so for years to come. Immigration is a shambles and contributing to destroying our economy. Yes we may need some migration economically but should only accept those we need, not those who will drain or resources. The demographics of Europe are changing significantly due to immigration and higher birth rates amongst past and future generations of migrants. People have every right to be concerned about that. Immigration issues won't go away and the issues will have to be addressed and will be. Increased immigration increases terrorism as it allows many terrorists to get in this way. https://www.defendevropa.org/2017/mi...any-june-2017/ https://www.defendevropa.org/2017/po...great-britain/ https://www.defendevropa.org/2017/po...ement-germany/ https://www.defendevropa.org/2017/po...k-netherlands/ 'The powers that be' can't just stop Brexit - as that would be sticking two fingers up at democracy. A public vote can't just be ignored because the losers stamp their feet loud enough. Any future public votes on anything would count for nothing. If people who have little regard for a public vote and think a public vote can be over-turned when it suits get their way - soon there won't even be a public vote and the public won't get a say in anything - it will all be down to governments and others in power, whatever party are in. That's a scary prospect. The people have had their say, information was provided and available to those who cared enough to bother to read. It is a done deal and those not happy need to stop whining. It is actually the scaremongers and the refusal of those to accept a public vote, and move on and get on with coming together and getting the best deal we can for our country that are causing the problems and causing danage to our economy. Move on and get real - it is beyond boring. Last edited by Brillopad; 16-07-2017 at 09:04 AM. |

It's hard to simply "accept a public vote" when, for example, you know that some who voted for it believe that we are paying "£350 billion a year in membership fees" when the actual figure is £13 billion... And that's before the benefit from trade is taken into account. .

There are so many variables, here that most are not aware of, so for any layman to simply state Brexit will be a disaster is not only untrue, because no-one knows, but simple, blatant scaremongering. There have been predictions based on facts and figures from both sides - but Brexit is what was voted for and until people stop whining and pull together for a decent deal no-one will know. |

I know you might not think so Brillo but getting your facts and figures at least half way correct is important if you want to be taken seriously. It's impossible to have an actual discussion of the facts when they're so wildly off. Edit: my phone autocorrected "economy" to "condom" but it made me giggle so I'm not fixing it.

The autocorrection on here is crap and instead of coming up with suitable possibilities comes up with bizarre unrelated words. Maybe it was a Freudian slip. Last edited by Brillopad; 16-07-2017 at 10:03 AM. |

Like I said, beyond that it depends on whether you believe that 13bn is then "money down the drain" or if you believe that membership brings in more than 13bn in trade revenue / other areas, which it almost certainly does. There's no real chance that Brexit will save us money in instant cash terms. |

They could hardly fault the UK for not wanting open borders when they have experienced the down side of it and are threatening to close their borders. Last edited by Brillopad; 16-07-2017 at 12:05 PM. |
