    Of course, whatever does get sorted let’s hope travelling around Europe is still easy - we’ll need it so that we can follow LJ and the boys in their European campaign ....... ;)

    No, it means that you can more easily agree products standards and reduce tariffs. Making things cheaper and therefore creating more trade.

    With respect JGF, you're the one who said that we (the UK) have a trade deal with China already purely because we buy things that say 'made in China', so I don't think you're the best to be lecturing on trading.

    I believe the betrayal will continue, those of us that voted LEAVE have had our legal vote stolen, these greasy, self seeking, 2 faced remain MP's will prevail, the piss that runs out of their spineless, cowardly waffle will give them all a good living for the future and the chameleon Corbyn, the spineless, aknowledged master of chat with Hamas, Hezbollah and the IRA has joined them at a late date because he seeks a power grab, a total, selfish, ruthless, left wing ****.

    According to 5Live, we will leave with no deal on 12th April unless either Parliament agree on and put forward an alternative (and it’s acceptable to the E.U.), or we ask the E.U. to extend Article 50.
    I really don’t want an extension. It’s a stay of execution. Let’s just do it.

    No one has had their vote stolen, you're getting hysterical. The vote was leave and at the moment the government is trying to implement leave.

    No one voted specifically for no deal, and no one voted to leave specifically on 29th March. If we're still in this position in a couple of years then maybe but as it stands no one has been 'betrayed' whatsoever.

    Yes they have. Its been said before the two main parties as part of their manifestos pledged to uphold the result of the referendum. A reasonable person would conclude that a significant number of MP's do not want to uphold those pledges to the electorate. Further to the above MP's in seats with enormous majorities who voted leave are not reflecting this with their behaviour over the last three years.

    Last weeks indicative voting patterns highlighted MP's left and right preferred Brexit plans. Some MP's voted against everything. Everything. They support NOTHING that would mean the UK leaving the EU in any form.

    MP's left and right have left parties because they are against Brexit. Call by elections give up your seats because … They were elected on a false premise .. No by elections have been called.

    That is vote stealing.

    Until Brexit is taken away from you and is completely ruled out, you haven't had your vote stolen. What you say is absolutely correct, the MP's are not representing the vote proportionately whatsoever, but it's yet to be fully 'stolen' in my opinion. It's still likely to happen. But it's an argument over semantics really anyways.

    What a bloody cheek, typical know all remainer, what a ****, superior attitude, I have had a consistent point of view ever since the referendum and that is leave , I have had the spine to stand firm on my beliefs, I continue to advocate my principles, I have not betrayed my arguments to gain favour, I have not lied or become 2 faced, we won the vote, my local MP voted in parliament to activate article 50 to leave and he, representing me had a huge majority and won the vote, I, along with 80 plus percent of the UK voted for a party that had leave in their manifesto in the last general election and we won, 3 majority votes to leave.

    A bunch of self seeking, 2 faced, spineless Eurofiles are betraying the majority and twisting and turning every value that parliamentary democracy had to offer, these are the people that said we were to thick, to stupid and uneducated to understand the ramifications of leaving.

    The vote was Leave or Remain, Leave won, not a watered down if, maybe, possible, we know better than you but just Leave, then we can talk about a trading relationship, we've got the message, we understand.

    That is the total of people that voted for the Conservative and Labour party in the general election that both had leavve in their manifesto, in fact it was 80% plus.

    I haven't accused you of any of that so pipe down. As I said, hysterical. And you can bet your arse if I called you a **** I'd be banned from here.

    The 80% stat keeps getting wheeled out and it's nonsense. Do you really think 80% of the electorate want to leave the EU? We have a 2-party voting system, the 80% stat means nothing. I voted Labour but do not want to leave.

    You may say I have a superior attitude but reading some of the cluelessness on here from the likes of JGF and RR it's incredibly hard not to with some people. People who definitely know they hate EU laws but can't tell us a single one they dislike. People who say we need to leave to make trade deals with the rest of the world, but apparently think we already have one with China! People that think foreigners are taking all of our jobs while apparently also taking all of our benefits!

    I disagree with the likes of Cliftonville but at least he seemingly knows what he's talking about, probably more so than I do. That's not a superior attitude at all. I've watched every piece he's ever posted in here to broaden my horizons, so I certainly don't think I'm above anything. It's a discussion and though it's heated, debate should make everybody more intelligent overall.

    Well there is a typical answer of a remainer, I have got to pipe down because of my hysterics, the likes of RR and jgf are cluless, Clitonville seemingly knows what he is talking about and the foreigners, job takers and benefits angle is being thown into the pile,to top it all I stand accused of the threat of banning someone for calling me a name (Call me what you want mate, you won't get banned).

    One thing all of the above have in common is we voted leave and I personally respect every one of them and their values and I acknowledge the right of remainers to their beliefs.

    I acknowledge your right to want to leave. I've even said the referendum result should be upheld. I don't even know what you're complaining about. What am I supposed to do, just agree with you? We can still debate without me having to agree with you wiz.

    By the way wiz I actually quite like you and your posts so I won't call you anything like a **** because I don't think you are one. You dislike me and that's fine, but any insults are unnecessary.

    Guys please let’s keep it friendly :emoticon-0152-heart - or at least refrain from calling each other names simply because of the different views we hold :emoticon-0148-yes:
    It’s in the hands of the politicians now - incompetent and selfish as they are it’s in their hands and will remain in their hands unless they decide to come back to the people again - which they have indicated that they don’t want to do and a sizeable number of the public don’t want either.
    In the meantime we are still no closer to understanding what sort of Brexit we will get - or when - and what it will mean for us.
    No doubt there will be some twists and turns this week with all the votes going on, where the supporters of a no-deal Brexit will join with their Remainer counterparts and vote down every deal that’s put in front of them.
    Strap in and hold on tight - it’s going to get bumpy.......

    Rob you are an articulate and intelligent bloke, I also not quite like but I like you very much, what is the old adage, I might not agree with you but I defend your right to state your opinions, I felt insulted and responded.
