Any other country would unite, stick together and make it work. They would produce and buy local. Instead we bicker, we argue, we have the media trying to cause a frenzy reporting lots of worse case exaggerated stories, always pointing out how bad a no deal might be for us, it would be equally as bad for Europe.

Buy local and pay fair prices or pay 22% more from imported crap from the thieving EU. Sign a trade deal with the likes of Japan and drive Honda and Nissan, ditch the BMW, Audi and Mercs, I'm sure the Germans want that to happen.

I'd tell them to go screw and walk away with no deal, I'm sick of them trying to get us over a barrel and instead of uniting like a nation we're Pig ignorant divided.

If the filthy rich of the country still want the £50k cars they'll not bat an eyelid on 22% the rest of us normal folk will drive a car from a country that does welcome a trade deal. There will be winners and losers. No trade deal and the EU threaten us with a 22% tax... First thing I'd do is whack a tax on Aldi and Lidl and give incentives to stores buying and selling more local

We have a over 18 months to go, stick two fingers up, walk away and start giving local producers and store purchasers time to source local.
:emoticon-0137-clapp if Glory and co had been around in WW2 we would have lost for sure,tell the EU get fooked,no deal and start trade talks now with the rest of the world now.:emoticon-0148-yes:

Agree with every word.
I cann't believe we have so many miss guided individuals who are still fighting to remain.
The EU negotiators must be laughing their socks off
:headbang:


Its a crock of **** and you want to blame those that wanted no part of it.
There is no mandate for a hard Brexit, and if it happens it wouldn't matter if we all fully support it the conntry will be on its knees in 18 months begging to be allowed access to markets.

You just don't get it do you?
I voted to join a common market in 72/73 not a United States of Europe run by Germany.
The politicians got carried away with themselves and their own vested interests.
Politicians just do not get it. Look around at what's starting to happen in this world, people are starting to say enough is enough, danger danger.

It is you that doesn't get it.
The benefits of being in outweigh the negatives many times over, and remainers don't want to have to leave to prove it...

The hard Brexit leave alternative is worse that staying in the EU even with its many faults.
If you are old enough to have voted in 72 this doesn't affect you. You wont be around long enough to suffer the consequences of cutting our noses off to spite our faces!

No quite right I won't be here to be proved right. I voted for my descendants. If I was to vote for selfish reasons I would have voted remain. Quick question, have you ever played poker

I have.
And I bluff a lot.

The problem with Brexit is that everyone has strong views, the result was close and there is no compromise solution...

Being in the EU is like getting in too deep with drugs, when we joined the Common Market it was just sharing a few joints at a weekend, then as we got deeper we were smoking skunk every day drifting along through life, eventually it was speed,E's and a bit of coke, the habit was harder to get out of and before we knew it we were on heroin and crack, we wanted to get out but we couldn't, we kept going back we needed it too function, we know we will die if we don't stop, the brexit negotiations are counselling sessions which don't seem to be working, we need hard rehab, we need to go cold turkey, it will be hard but in the end we will be clean and better off physically and financially.

See my previous.
We have a legal obligation to settle the exit bill, and nobody within or outside the EU will trade with us until we do.
Go on ask the question:

While you are a member of a club you pay your dues Glory, when you leave(having served notice) you do not.
The laws of the EU will not apply to us when we have left.
 
<laugh><laugh><laugh><laugh>
The £90 billion divorce settlement wont be agreed until 2025 if we proceed. Until that's done nothing else will move.

If you are stupid (who am I trying to kid by saying if)
You are about to say we will walk away pay nowt and trade with who we want. <laugh><laugh><laugh><laugh><laugh><laugh>
That's right fookem.The EU is collapsing,Austria will fook them off soon.

Yep and if we don’t get out now what will our descendants think of us for missing this opportunity which will not come again. Politicians will not allow it
