Nothing like the millennium bug whatsoever. The millennium bug was the concern that computer systems would stop working after ticking over into year 2000 being that their internal clocks may not have been programmed originally beyond 1999.
‘Brexit’ is the very real removal of all established trade agreements across the world that we have currently and then restarting from scratch. Depending on whether we leave with a deal or none at all will also dictate whether we are deregulated or not. The only winners in such an instance are US corporations who relish a deregulated nation to operate within because it increases profits by not having to adhere to such things as environmental laws or worker’s rights etc. The US will also force us to accept commodities from them that we really do not want. However as the much smaller economy we will not be able to refuse.
It is my firm opinion that we’ve jumped out of a nice warm bath and into the fire - and done so because of interference in our democratic process by US entities who stand to gain by our leaving the EU. It really is tragic. |

My answer was flippant. If you want to do serious Br...whatever discussions, off you pop to the politics forums.  |

I hadn’t actually noticed there was a politics forum. Thanks
Sorry to have jumped on your comment too. Brexit will have a significant life changing affect on me personally - and not for the better. |

Last time I heard of it there's was talk about delays...
I just thought if that happens I'm pretty sure there will be uproars and riots.
Never watched the news since because I'm tired of it....
Only time I'll watch would be if Theresa May gets assassinated.... that'd be the best deal she gets Fingers crossed x |
