Correct - we're supposed to be leaving, so let's just crack on with it.....sadly, this is going to drag on for a lot longer yet.

 

 

Agreed. Dyson, Johnson etc. are right. Just 'hard Brexit' and get it over with then a real start  can be made on building the new trading relationships.

 

We have one thing Europe needs us for. That fat nutter in Korea holds the clue. 'Holding all the cards'? Maybe not. Holding the aces? Possibly.

There's no such thing as hard Brexit, or soft Brexit, just Brexit

Then you are a fucking idiot.

Chief brexiteer DD said it would be easier to land a man on the moon

 

Didn't see that on the side of a bus

Greenland left the EU in 1982.

Negotiations on terms took 3 years.

There was only one industry to discuss.

Greenland's population is less than 0.1% of UK's.

Get over it.

The vast majority of British people were on the losing side

 

Some just don't know it yet

Don't worry Birch, they will be all queuing up for the jobs that they didnt want first time around

[birch-chorley]

As long as the sky doesn't fall in then it will all be worthwhile

Maggie Tate who used to post on here reckoned it should only take a few weeks.

 

Anyway, it's clearly going to take a bloody long time, as it's not as simple as folk first thought.....it's also become apparent, that we don't actually hold all the cards. We hold some, but not as many as the EU holds.

[birch-chorley]

Anyone who thought it could take a couple of weeks is insane

The EU will be able to begin to negotiate in a few days, once the makeup of the new German government is defined.

Another bottle job that couldn't handle folk disagreeeing with him so fucked it off.

Merely my musings so not getting into a huge debate about it, but if the EU and their big cheeses trying to control things were such a great success and not dependent on one nation leaving thus creating a snowball effect,then surely they'd be happy to wave us off on our merry way wouldn't they ?

 

But they don't seem to be doing that, they're trying to convince us with every plausible/bullshit scenario possible/scaremongering etc aren't they ?

 

I've not read everyone's posts for a few days, so not sure what the thoughts are on the Ryanair cockpit cock up.

 

Going to be interesting for sure, but I don't think we've got anything to worry about.

 

Merely my musings as I say.

My flights are still on with Ryanair but at one point I was going to PM L/H white showing my disdain ????

What a load of old bollocks that is. Quite possibly the most intelligent poster we have had on here in the time I have been frequenting this place and WWays is all the poorer for his departure.

 

I suspect that the reason he fucked it off is due to the seemingly increasing population of halfwits and left wing neo nazis who simply try to shut all intellectual discussion down with their repetitive contemporary insults (racist, homophobe, bigot etc.). Boredom with this shit from the brainwashed crowd will probably do for me in the end but, for the time being, I still get a kick out of being able to get them 'outraged'.

[Whites man]

Someone agreeing with you Bolty doesn't make them intelligent mate, it makes them a bigot:-)

 

He is undoubtedly well read but kept making the same factual mistakes which isn't a sign of intelligence but someone with an agenda.

 

The ex-Army lad on here reckons he's a "Walt" but like others the site would be better with him still posting.

Owd on son. You need to go back and do some research methinks. Maggie Tate and I did not agree on everything - not by a long chalk.

 

Does not mean I don';t respect the lad nor many others of you for that matter.

So yes he fucked it off because he couldn't handle people disagreeing with him and taking him on.

 

You can carpet bomb people with 175 paragraph posts all day long, but that doesn't make you right or more intellectual than anyone else on here.

 

I thought he was pretty sound to be honest, but like other couldn't handle it when the place became more diverse in opinion.

Never has a nail been hit on head so squarely as that.

I could not disagree more. Totally off beam apart from the 'pretty sound' part.

You really believe anything in George Osborne's rag?

Shocking isn't it we're going to the dogs it seems.???? Or rather more an anti Brexit rag trying a little too hard to get the metropolitan elite remainers to buy their rag? I might take the report seriously if they had compared uk and Italian growth over the last 5 years. For a supposedly respected newspaper to run an ariticle that suggests that the Italian economy is or even predicted to be superior to ours just goes to show how silly and painful this Brexit has been for the remainers. I am even more suprised someone as seemingly intelligent as yourself has even bothered to post such tripe.

Mounts there is only so long that you can defend the reality, our economy is slowing and has been for sometime since we voted for Brexit. TM's speech in Florence on Friday will no doubt shed more light on the 10s of £billions that we will pay to the EU for years to come. All of which you were adament that we wouldn't have to pay because we hold all the cards. If this is the anything like what we should expect over the next 18 months then we will be so worse off. Years of hardship for what?
