I think your missing my point, I don't think it matters how much May stamps her feet and threatens, we will ultimately get what the EU's deems acceptable.

I would like to think (hope) that an accommodation can be reached. However, I fear you are probably right. The EU will want to demonstrate to any other potential recalcitrants that you can't just walk away free of charge.

Or 'Pour encourager les autres'. As Voltaire put it...

It's a tightrope for the EU. They have to make it as difficult as possible, or others will be leaving the sinking ship too. If they are seen for what they really are in the process, the right-wing in France etc will make it an election issue.

I still believe industry and big business will be calling the shots, or at least setting the scene to a fair extent.

Don't you ever have a day off? At least stop pretending you have a clue.

I give up!!..

Over 40% of our total exports go to the EU. And you think that's going to just change like magic? And all these other countries will suddenly appear and are going to be lining up to buy from us and replace the billions we export to the EU ?

Idiots like him have bought the 'open for business' bullshit. The World will all of a sudden want to buy our products despite them always being able to buy our products <doh>

It skips past the bit about most of our manufacturing plants being foreign owned and based here to supply the U.K. and EU markets though.

Like in the 1970's when the colonies trade dried up and was the reason we joined the Common Market in the first place you mean?

Absolutely ****ing clueless
 
In any case chaps article 127 of the Lisbon treaty might yet save the day.

As triggering article 50 doesn't affect our EEA status which should give May a golden ticket according to the latest legal challenge

Which part of his commentary do you disagree with and why is it 'clueless'?

Never mind, I'll answer for you. None of it was wrong, but your being a thick plank meant you couldn't grasp the logic of what he was saying. Quite a common trait among many of you and your fellow remoaners.

It's quite a feat, but you clearly put the 'mong' in among!

You can vote your MEP out, maybe vote for one who actually turns up, unlike that total fraud Farage.

Can you name another politician that has come remotely close to fulfilling their mandate as much as Farage did?

The electorate voted him to do a specific job and he did it perfectly. You may not like it, but them's the facts. :emoticon-0148-yes:

His constituency voted for him to be their MEP, and despite creaming off as much as he can in expenses, he rarely attends. The man is a complete fraud and a charlatan
