"Germany bid farewell to Angela Merkel with six minutes of continuous applause. The Germans elected her to lead them, and she led 80 million Germans for 18 years with competence, skill, dedication and sincerity.

During these eighteen years of her leadership and authority in her country, no transgressions were recorded against her. She did not assign any of her relatives a secretariat. She did not claim that she was the maker of glories. She did not get millions out of her work, nor did she need anyone to cheer her life. She did not receive charters and pledges, she did not fight those who preceded her. She did not utter nonsense. She did not appear in the alleys of Berlin to be photographed. She is the woman dubbed "The Lady of the World" and was described as the equivalent of six million men.

Yesterday, Merkel left the party leadership position and handed it over to those after her, and Germany and its German people are in the best condition they could be. The reaction of the Germans was unprecedented in the history of Germany.”

Now let’s think and compare her to Boris and Co.

How embarrassing our leaders are.

They are not fit to lead our great country.

What does this have to do with Brexit?

I don't think anyone can deny that Merkel has done a great job for Germany.

I didn’t post this to be about Brexit

I posted it firstly to say total respect to an outstanding person. She deserves all the plaudits given.

Secondly to show how short changed we are with our lot. And that’s both sides of Parliament but especially our current leader.

Whilst I'm aware you're not a fan of Brexit, that's your right but I can see you're not just out to try score cheap points.

In a post praising Merkel we've already had Brexit and Trump. Why can't we just praise Merkel instead of denouncing others?

By showing what we should have it exposes what we actually have.

I’m a fan of Merkel I admit but to see the state of our choices of MPs across all parties just shows that we heading totally in the wrong way in allowing the system we have.

Merkel is well paid and is happy with that. She’s put her country first.

When was the last time you felt that about our politicians.

It won't change because most of the electorate think we don't have a problem with our politics or they don't care. Our politics should reflect the people of this country as a whole. They don't.

I suppose it depends on your defeniton..Blair will go down as one of the most successful politicians of recent years,but he has a tarnished reputation.

That is not the reason it won't change in my mind.

For me, it won't change because their is no party in parliament who wants it to change. It's got nothing to do with the electorate.

She did not claim that she was the maker of glories. She did not get millions out of her work, nor did she need anyone to cheer her life. She did not receive charters and pledges, she did not fight those who preceded her. She did not utter nonsense. She did not appear in the alleys of Berlin to be photographed. She is the woman dubbed "The Lady of the World" and was described as the equivalent of six million men.

Yesterday, Merkel left the party leadership position and handed it over to those after her, and Germany and its German people are in the best condition they could be. The reaction of the Germans was unprecedented in the history of Germany.”

She filled the country with imigrants not popular causing the rise of a new nazi style movement.

Yes overall a good leader but also got a lot wrong and is responable for the EU starting to fall apart.

Germans never moan about there leaders as we do anyway

Lol, which bits are bias?

The television adverts to warn people in Albania not to come to Germany as their chances of getting asylum were close to zero?

The large inflow of immigrants that led to increased violent crime and allowed terror groups to take advantage of the situation. It was accompanied with high unemployment among newcomers and a low rate of return for those denied asylum.

I’m a fan of Merkel I admit but to see the state of our choices of MPs across all parties just shows that we heading totally in the wrong way in allowing the system we have.

Merkel is well paid and is happy with that. She’s put her country first.

When was the last time you felt that about our politicians.

I have never personally felt that way about any of our politicians in my adult life. Sad but that's the fact of it and I don't see it changing unless rules change (which won't happen)

It won't change because most of the electorate think we don't have a problem with our politics or they don't care. Our politics should reflect the people of this country as a whole. They don't.

I think it starts with education.

Too many people think politics dont concern them..and we are still a nation of serfs."

I agree

People have ever increasingly been mislead by media over the last thirty years and we just seem to accept our lot as citizens. The gap between rich and working poor never gets any smaller.

We are as mushrooms lead by a deceitful class of self interested politicians who in reality conform and play the game as soon as they arrive at the best club in the world. We have to do away with the two party club or it will never improve for the average worker in this country.

Technology has created vast fortunes but do those of you earning £15-30k a year feel that much better off? I mention those numbers as the first is the mode wage in the U.K. and the second is the mean average. The median average is £24k

So lots of low paid out there still even with all this wealth generation.

"Here is a good read.

https://capx.co/merkels-mistakes/

Sadly the even worse than Thatcherite pro extreme capitalist writers and editors of this site lead me to dismiss the article as bias.

Lol, which bits are bias?

The television adverts to warn people in Albania not to come to Germany as their chances of getting asylum were close to zero?

The large inflow of immigrants that led to increased violent crime and allowed terror groups to take advantage of the situation. It was accompanied with high unemployment among newcomers and a low rate of return for those denied asylum."

Read up on the owners of the website then tell me it’s not bias.

However you wish to criticise she leaves our leaders in her wake. Germany shows how weak we are in comparison. I’m not proud of that .

I posted it firstly to say total respect to an outstanding person. She deserves all the plaudits given.

"Do we know why she is going now? Can she see the rocks a head ? It's not hard to captain the ship in mild weather or is it illness or ? "

18 years of mild weather

She’s leaving of her own choice . Not being pushed or harried. She’s done an amazing job and lead as a true strong force to be record with. I didn’t see Cameron, May or Boris stand up to trump ever.

Really? So these people elect themselves? While I agree that no party will push for change because the setup suits them rather than us, acting like the electorate have no influence or input is just simply trying to distance ourselves from the mess. We all have a part to play.

Personally I think her stance on.immigration was admirable.

You can bet if she was tough on immigration there would be digs thrown at her from Germany's past.

No but they orchestrate the playing field, Blair in my opinion placed himself nicely to take middle ground and to the left conservative votes at the expense of lower income traditional labour voters, long term Boris has benefitted

Without making it about you know who there is still a school of thought that because you went to oxford and can speak some latin,you were born to rule.

"Germany bid farewell to Angela Merkel with six minutes of continuous applause. The Germans elected her to lead them, and she led 80 million Germans for 18 years with competence, skill, dedication and sincerity.

During these eighteen years of her leadership and authority in her country, no transgressions were recorded against her. She did not assign any of her relatives a secretariat. She did not claim that she was the maker of glories. She did not get millions out of her work, nor did she need anyone to cheer her life. She did not receive charters and pledges, she did not fight those who preceded her. She did not utter nonsense. She did not appear in the alleys of Berlin to be photographed. She is the woman dubbed "The Lady of the World" and was described as the equivalent of six million men.

Yesterday, Merkel left the party leadership position and handed it over to those after her, and Germany and its German people are in the best condition they could be. The reaction of the Germans was unprecedented in the history of Germany.”

Now let’s think and compare her to Boris and Co.

How embarrassing our leaders are.

They are not fit to lead our great country.

She filled the country with imigrants not popular causing the rise of a new nazi style movement.

Yes overall a good leader but also got a lot wrong and is responable for the EU starting to fall apart.

Germans never moan about there leaders as we do anyway"

She’s been a stabilising centre for the EU so totally disagree with your comment.

You will find the right wing in Germany is there due to ill feelings of disenfranchised former East German regional politicians. They still have a slight negative hangover from unification. Their incompetence lead to their redundancy as a power base. The western government had to impose hard economic rules and accountability which was unheard of in a communist era. So let’s rise up and blame immigration and the lax western democracies including that old Eastern bloc politician Merkel ...oh wait.. interestingly rather than English a lot of East Germans have Russian as a second language.

As in the U.K. . Ignorance leads to racism. Even Merkel admitted the numbers allowed in should have been staggered better but not dropped. We cry like babies over the few refugees we took

I’ve travelled there a lot and even with their negative communist legacy they want to work and better their lives for themselves and their country. Hard working people.

The odds are stacked against us. The parachuting of nearly 50% of candidates secures the central control of politicians.

We need to stop that.

She announced back in 2018 that she would step down once her term as Chancellor ended in 2021. Her announcement followed the most recent setback in a series her party has experienced in state polls.

Greeks should have paid their taxes and problem solved.

It was calculated. That if the Greeks had all payed their due tax instead of using cash so much their country would not have needed baling out.

But they think it’s their national sport to avoid tax.

It but them big time in the end.

thats missing the point to some extent, they wouldnt have had the problem to start with! the value of dracma would have dropped, making greek holidays and greek produce cheaper and more competitive, but because they are in euro they cant devalue currency, the flip side is germanys deutsche mark would have risen, and made bmws more expensive, but as linked to greece its kept it down, the winners keep winning and the losers will be stuck/are stuck

has she? or has she been making sure it all suits germany best? the greeks are in trouble because they cannot devalue their money, germany benefits from the fact because it means their currency is ineffect undervalued, yes i know they all have euro, that is the point, this benefits germany keeping them competitive but doesnt help greece at all, same for the other poor eu nations. Of course germany has become the centre and can only get stronger off the back of it as the poorer countries are trapped. I posted a link to the effect of having the euro had over the years and Germany have benifited greatly to the detriment of other eu countries but someone didnt like it and was taken down followed by a ban.

exactly! its been a sneaky move by germany in my opinion

"Germany bid farewell to Angela Merkel with six minutes of continuous applause. The Germans elected her to lead them, and she led 80 million Germans for 18 years with competence, skill, dedication and sincerity.

During these eighteen years of her leadership and authority in her country, no transgressions were recorded against her. She did not assign any of her relatives a secretariat. She did not claim that she was the maker of glories. She did not get millions out of her work, nor did she need anyone to cheer her life. She did not receive charters and pledges, she did not fight those who preceded her. She did not utter nonsense. She did not appear in the alleys of Berlin to be photographed. She is the woman dubbed "The Lady of the World" and was described as the equivalent of six million men.

Yesterday, Merkel left the party leadership position and handed it over to those after her, and Germany and its German people are in the best condition they could be. The reaction of the Germans was unprecedented in the history of Germany.”

Now let’s think and compare her to Boris and Co.

How embarrassing our leaders are.

They are not fit to lead our great country.

She filled the country with imigrants not popular causing the rise of a new nazi style movement.

Yes overall a good leader but also got a lot wrong and is responable for the EU starting to fall apart.

Germans never moan about there leaders as we do anyway

She’s been a stabilising centre for the EU so totally disagree with your comment.

You will find the right wing in Germany is there due to ill feelings of disenfranchised former East German regional politicians. They still have a slight negative hangover from unification. Their incompetence lead to their redundancy as a power base. The western government had to impose hard economic rules and accountability which was unheard of in a communist era. So let’s rise up and blame immigration and the lax western democracies including that old Eastern bloc politician Merkel ...oh wait.. interestingly rather than English a lot of East Germans have Russian as a second language.

Of course germany has become the centre and can only get stronger off the back of it as the poorer countries are trapped.

Greeks should have paid their taxes and problem solved.

It was calculated. That if the Greeks had all payed their due tax instead of using cash so much their country would not have needed baling out.

But they think it’s their national sport to avoid tax.

It but them big time in the end.

thats missing the point to some extent, they wouldnt have had the problem to start with! the value of dracma would have dropped, making greek holidays and greek produce cheaper and more competitive, but because they are in euro they cant devalue currency, the flip side is germanys deutsche mark would have risen, and made bmws more expensive, but as linked to greece its kept it down, the winners keep winning and the losers will be stuck/are stuck "

How can not having any money by not paying tax miss the point. Countries don’t usually devalue to zero . Their government bank account stood at zero and less.

Blaming the Euro is not the answer to their ridiculous behaviour.

So Merkel's Germany did well under her reign, isn't that the point irrespective of how they benefitted from the Euro. Clever her, maybe we should have had a Merkel here instead of those who promise big and deliver sod all.

They didn’t pay tax well before the EU came into being so it’s a cultural thing not an EU thing.

Just like we don’t tax the super rich so the nurses get 1% and the average worker will be paying off the debt until they die.

We believe she has done well and I admire her be great to have her hear on the outside.

The thing is what do we really know about day to day politics in Germany?

In this country we hear about the UK and the US and a bit on the EU but not about individual countries.

In Greece about 18 months ago became friendly with a German couple and they said that Britain was amazing for having the courage to leave EU and said that Merkals commitment to the EU was going to destroy Germany.

Travel and see stuff other than tourist hot spots.

You would see that the countries you think you know are nothing like the newspapers tell you. . Everyone is polite on holiday so I don’t think it counts. Or I could say every single one of the people I do business with in the EU, when I’ve spoken of Brexit think we’ve lost the plot.

They say it’s our choice but why do we believe that buffoon Boris??

He’s an embarrassment .

Absolutely. But when it was as clear cut as one option being good, and one option being shit, it's annoying. In GEs there are usually pros and cons. So it's less annoying.

If leavers voted to flush only their own money down the toilet. Whatever. But it's all of us who are impacted. well that’s the same with any vote ain’t it the result is for us all lol

Absolutely. But when it was as clear cut as one option being good, and one option being shit, it's annoying. In GEs there are usually pros and cons. So it's less annoying.

it was only clear cut to the well educated very very clever people but us Lea era are just to dumb to understand the information out there does that make you feel bette mate "

See, what you've done there is, you've made something up that I haven't said. Then got annoyed about it.

What are "salty remainer tears"?

Maybe at some point you'll give us a "demonstrable" benefit. Preferably a non-lobster based benefit.

Because thus far, you've provided the square root of fuck all.

"Germany bid farewell to Angela Merkel with six minutes of continuous applause. The Germans elected her to lead them, and she led 80 million Germans for 18 years with competence, skill, dedication and sincerity.

During these eighteen years of her leadership and authority in her country, no transgressions were recorded against her. She did not assign any of her relatives a secretariat. She did not claim that she was the maker of glories. She did not get millions out of her work, nor did she need anyone to cheer her life. She did not receive charters and pledges, she did not fight those who preceded her. She did not utter nonsense. She did not appear in the alleys of Berlin to be photographed. She is the woman dubbed "The Lady of the World" and was described as the equivalent of six million men.

Yesterday, Merkel left the party leadership position and handed it over to those after her, and Germany and its German people are in the best condition they could be. The reaction of the Germans was unprecedented in the history of Germany.”

Now let’s think and compare her to Boris and Co.

How embarrassing our leaders are.

They are not fit to lead our great country.

Such a contrast. Merkel lead with integrity and class, Boris is just a bumbling baffoon "

You do realise that the Germans are totally different to us British, have you ever been to Germany? It’s a totally different way of life, if you go to a normal town, not one of the larger cities, everything shuts early even the bars & take a ways shut just after 10, most Germans are compliant with the Government, they certainly would never had a Jeremy Corbyn stand as a main opposition leader as they are still very touchy about the anti semitism of WW2. By the way Germany’s reunification east & west would never of happened without our say so, you do realise the UK along with France Russia & the USA had to let the mighty Germans of war debt in order for it to happen? (1990 treaty of final settlement). There are many other reasons Germany is in a better state than the UK financially but just because it seems more steady politically, doesn’t mean that it is.

Costa Blanca Spain...

To be fair Merkel was a breath of fresh air after the German Tony Blair (Gerhard Schroeder) and during her first term and well into her second she was well liked by most Germans.

Things are very different today.

At the last election her CDU party only picked up around 26% of the party list vote. Even with the support of its Bavarian sister party (CSU) it could not form a government. It couldn't after the previous election either and had to go into coalition with SPD.

This time around Merkel has been propped up by FDP (think Lib Dems) and the Greens who finished 4th and 6th respectively.

For the next election in September this year CDU are polling slightly below even that low point.

Yes, Merkel may have started well but nowadays there are a lot more Germans who hate her than love her. Especially in her old stomping ground the former East Germany.

Very true.

Yes I have "been" to Germany. I live there.

Yes Germany is very different and I know full well what you mean about the early closing. Some of the other rules here would certainly raise (at least) a few eyebrows in the UK.

For instance: Try using your lawnmower (or any other power tool) on a Sunday or any bank holiday. If the neighbours complain (and most will) you will get a fine. After a snowfall you have to clear the snow from the pavement in front of your property (and in good time) if not you can be fined.

Oh! and Sunday shops opening. Forget it.

Interesting how some are picking fault with Germany and yet their society seems better organised and their politicians represent the people far more. When did the greens in this country ever come up in a general political chat. It’s because their votes in an election never count in this country but in Germany they do.

Interesting how it’s us writing off debt that’s made Germany so great. They took on east Germany which is those of you old enough to remember was a bankrupt communist state. ( although not as bad as most). It was in our interests to demolish the Warsaw Pact countries as we couldn’t afford the arms race either.

The U.K. trails in Germany’s wake financially and the whataboutary doesn’t stop that from being fact.

Envy comes to mind.

Anyway if you’re too churlish to allow yourself to recognise an amazing politician then that reflects on you not her.

where do i fit in on that curfew? hmmm fuck human rights ay greens!

it does annoy me though, little female in sauna laid out taking up all the room as if she owned the place, 2 big guys squashed up but not asking her to shift, if they had reported her to staff saying they were scared to ask her theyd be laughed at, but if one of them had acted like her and she had reported him......different story!

yes i asked her to move... she looked miffed. Story pre covid obvs!

it's more accurate to understand the reunification as east germany being cash poor but monumentally asset rich. west germany completely asset stripped the east in a gargantuan privatisation that the conservative and unionist party could only begin to dream of in their wildest acid trip. when the wall came down, chumocracy was rife, especially in west berlin.

"

Indeed and most civil organisations such as universities were taken over by West Germans.

The East Germans are a little like Wales and England . Not happy with everything but totally fucked without West Germany’s money.

Moving the centre of government back to Berlin and as a result the interest in investment has meant a much better life for East Germans though.

Despite all it’s faults we still trail way behind so how bad must our faults be?

Well, they managed to vote for rich to get richer and the poor to get poorer.

Do you think austerity effects the top 0.1% of earners. Or does it effect the very people who voted for more of it with brexit and the Tories?

How about Rees Mogg and those types who made a shit tonne of cash tanking the value of the pound?

No I can’t but so far from Brexit all I can see is increased costs and no better international deals .

So what’s the benefit ?

There has to be a direction and I don’t think for one min the leave campaign had a plan . Certainly Boris didn’t as he’s still claiming seamless trade and no extra paperwork FFS

Leave was about emotion not factual plans of making our live richer or better.

Tax haven status maybe . Hmmm that’s not really going to help the factory worker is it!

Well if they voted brexit and keep voting tory i guess they dont care eh seems as i dont bother voting though i cant be 100% about why the vote the way they do im just guessing.as for rees mogg and those types making a shit load of cash im guessing the majority of peeps would do the same if they were in a position to do so.everyone likes making money for little or no effort

If leavers voted to flush only their own money down the toilet. Whatever. But it's all of us who are impacted.

Well seems as most leave voters were the poor and working class who if they are lucky may earn 18-25 grand a year i doubt the cared or even thought about those who are better off than them being made poorer.when you have fuck all you cant get poorer

Well, they managed to vote for rich to get richer and the poor to get poorer.

Do you think austerity effects the top 0.1% of earners. Or does it effect the very people who voted for more of it with brexit and the Tories?

How about Rees Mogg and those types who made a shit tonne of cash tanking the value of the pound?

Well if they voted brexit and keep voting tory i guess they dont care eh seems as i dont bother voting though i cant be 100% about why the vote the way they do im just guessing.as for rees mogg and those types making a shit load of cash im guessing the majority of peeps would do the same if they were in a position to do so.everyone likes making money for little or no effort"

Fair enough.

I don't think it's cool to keep voting in people who only there to line their own pockets.

My opinion is that the majority of the media is right wing and Tory supporting. So they rarely get held accountable in the public eye.

Hence keep fucking us over time and time again. And keep getting voted in.

Yes and the leave campaign fed off that apathy of thinking I’ve not got any better off being in Europe and these foreigners have brought wages down. . They didn’t for one moment think actually which U.K. government has done anything for me?

Our problems are self inflicted

Absolutely. But when it was as clear cut as one option being good, and one option being shit, it's annoying. In GEs there are usually pros and cons. So it's less annoying.

it was only clear cut to the well educated very very clever people but us Lea era are just to dumb to understand the information out there does that make you feel bette mate

See, what you've done there is, you've made something up that I haven't said. Then got annoyed about it.

i was reading between the lines of I’m wrong what did you really mean then just be honest speak your mind it’s only a swingers site ffs

What I said, is what I really mean. I didn't mince my words.neither did I mate I always say what I think

the leavers voted to flush.....

when we joined the eu i got no say, im sure lots on here didnt, but ive been stuck within the eu trade deal for decades, like it or not! Not a vote every ten years or even every twenty!

ironically at last when i do get a vote, weve been voted out, like it or not, most likely by the older generation that voted us in!

Guess life just isnt fair lol

Yes but it’s not their future that’s going to be worse it’s the younger generation sadly. the thing is not you nor anyone can see the future sadly enough

No, but we've certainly created a bleaker future for young people with brexit."

No I can’t but so far from Brexit all I can see is increased costs and no better international deals .

So what’s the benefit ?

There has to be a direction and I don’t think for one min the leave campaign had a plan . Certainly Boris didn’t as he’s still claiming seamless trade and no extra paperwork FFS

Leave was about emotion not factual plans of making our live richer or better.

Tax haven status maybe . Hmmm that’s not really going to help the factory worker is it! "

but you where talking about the future of our younger generations and your basing it on a cpl of months of brexit as you just said so far as you can see why not base your predictions after a cpl of yrs of brexit ? Know one knows what the future will be so no point shitting yourself about it it may suprise ya

We left over a year and two months ago.

So far. It's gone exactly as expected. There are no signs to suggest there is any good brexit news coming. So we're going on pure belief here, belief that goes against evidence.

There are a long list of tangible problems caused by brexit.

The deals we signed are all the same as what we had before. There are some deals we don't have. So there is a net loss here.

The investment in the freeports is less than the North East received in grants from the EU.

The freeports seem like they don't really boost employment, and add a burden on tax payers.

Overall, it's not looking like there is any evidence for brexit benefits as a nation.

I’m not basing it on a couple of months .

The increased costs to trade are here to stay and that’s a negative don’t you agree?

Then if we add duplicating trade deals which don’t gain any financial benefit.

So for the foreseeable future, ie the next few years at least we are going to be worse off . That’s unavoidable due to financial facts.

Please feel free to tell me how that’s going to change to a benefit. I’m all ears.

Not interested in sunny uplands talk I want facts to counter the increase in costs. Where and how will they reduce?

so you don’t think we will get a deal with the USA and other countries amd you say the north east got grants from thee eu that was partly the U.K. tax payers money anyway and you don’t think the Freeport will boost employment well according to the mayor it could be 18000 jobs so one of you is way of with your well informed predictions lol

A deal with the US isn't likely to benefit the UK much at all. It's mainly going to benefit the US corporations, the same ones that pumped cash into the leave campaigns.

It's not me that doubts the freeports.

Is there any evidence to suggest that there will be a positive outcome?

And no need to SHOUT. how about the deals we have signed and trying to sign with other countries isn’t that positive ?and don’t say it won’t replace what we had I’m saying will that be positive for the future not talking about the past and here in Teesside we have the Freeport now that’s very positive up here most remainers didn’t even comment on that wonder why ?

The deals we signed are all the same as what we had before. There are some deals we don't have. So there is a net loss here.

The investment in the freeports is less than the North East received in grants from the EU.

The freeports seem like they don't really boost employment, and add a burden on tax payers.

Overall, it's not looking like there is any evidence for brexit benefits as a nation.so you don’t think we will get a deal with the USA and other countries amd you say the north east got grants from thee eu that was partly the U.K. tax payers money anyway and you don’t think the Freeport will boost employment well according to the mayor it could be 18000 jobs so one of you is way of with your well informed predictions lol

A deal with the US isn't likely to benefit the UK much at all. It's mainly going to benefit the US corporations, the same ones that pumped cash into the leave campaigns.

It's not me that doubts the freeports.

see you confirm what I’m saying a deal with the USA won’t benefit the U.K. much lol you look for the negative straight away it’s just what I said we are just different people lol

Pretty piss poor, especially when you compare to all the problems caused by brexit.

It seems ridiculous that were still arguing how shit brexit it. People will hang on to the brexit fantasy for as long as they live. No matter how shit it is.

How did we even get back to this silly argument!

"That’s it exactly our choice

That's the problem though. The choice was made for all of us.

If leavers voted to flush only their own money down the toilet. Whatever. But it's all of us who are impacted. well that’s the same with any vote ain’t it the result is for us all lol

Absolutely. But when it was as clear cut as one option being good, and one option being shit, it's annoying. In GEs there are usually pros and cons. So it's less annoying.

it was only clear cut to the well educated very very clever people but us Lea era are just to dumb to understand the information out there does that make you feel bette mate

See, what you've done there is, you've made something up that I haven't said. Then got annoyed about it.

i was reading between the lines of I’m wrong what did you really mean then just be honest speak your mind it’s only a swingers site ffs

What I said, is what I really mean. I didn't mince my words.neither did I mate I always say what I think

the leavers voted to flush.....

when we joined the eu i got no say, im sure lots on here didnt, but ive been stuck within the eu trade deal for decades, like it or not! Not a vote every ten years or even every twenty!

ironically at last when i do get a vote, weve been voted out, like it or not, most likely by the older generation that voted us in!

Guess life just isnt fair lol

Yes but it’s not their future that’s going to be worse it’s the younger generation sadly. the thing is not you nor anyone can see the future sadly enough

No I can’t but so far from Brexit all I can see is increased costs and no better international deals .

So what’s the benefit ?

There has to be a direction and I don’t think for one min the leave campaign had a plan . Certainly Boris didn’t as he’s still claiming seamless trade and no extra paperwork FFS

Leave was about emotion not factual plans of making our live richer or better.

Tax haven status maybe . Hmmm that’s not really going to help the factory worker is it! but you where talking about the future of our younger generations and your basing it on a cpl of months of brexit as you just said so far as you can see why not base your predictions after a cpl of yrs of brexit ? Know one knows what the future will be so no point shitting yourself about it it may suprise ya

I’m not basing it on a couple of months .

The increased costs to trade are here to stay and that’s a negative don’t you agree?

Then if we add duplicating trade deals which don’t gain any financial benefit.

So for the foreseeable future, ie the next few years at least we are going to be worse off . That’s unavoidable due to financial facts.

Please feel free to tell me how that’s going to change to a benefit. I’m all ears.

Not interested in sunny uplands talk I want facts to counter the increase in costs. Where and how will they reduce?

you say the next few yrs atleast well atleast in the next few yrs you will have a better idea about the future "

I have a total understanding of real costs I don’t want a flimsy guess that you hope it will be fine.

Tell me how I’m really want to understand what leads you to believe costs will reduce? There’s been 4 years to formulate a plan.

Business that are losing money cut jobs they don’t wait in the hope it will be ok! Remember the bigger earners chose who’s sacked so they keep their cash

The big companies just move to where profits are best. Reece Mogg on a small scale to Ireland for example .

We’re not a major and we’re moving jobs already due to Brexit.

This fingers crossed hope is just not an answer.

Brexit is purely based on tax evasion and deceit.

I’d agree with you if you just stated a benefit.

There are none being shown.

Us drug makers want higher prices in the U.K. now we don’t have the EU patent rules.

Big Us pharma want lower food regs.

They have dropped tariffs on aerospace . Our involvement with Airbus means it’s not that clear as to how we benefit.

Rolls Royce engines possibly but I can’t see that helping a lot with the need for big American engine companies to survive Covid and Boeing’s issues.

We are the junior partner with any deal with the US. I’m not confident it’s going to be pretty but like the other deals it won’t get parliamentary scrutiny so we will be stitched up and only find out later.

Covid whilst badly managed is not self inflicted and a chosen route.

I’ve made redundancy’s in the U.K. as we’ve had to move jobs to Europe due solely to Brexit . Who do you blame for that?

Here are the benefits of brexit.

Pretty piss poor, especially when you compare to all the problems caused by brexit.

It seems ridiculous that were still arguing how shit brexit it. People will hang on to the brexit fantasy for as long as they live. No matter how shit it is.

How did we even get back to this silly argument!

It seems pretty ridiculous people are still arguing about brexit full stop.its happend now no matter how much you hate it its not gona change anything.all i see is those who didnt want to leave telling people how bad its going to get and those who wanted out saying how great its going to be.no one knows how shit or great it gona be.we could end up fighting each other for food and shelter or it could turn out fine.reakon itsgona take a few years to see one way or the other

True but it’s costing jobs now! What do you say to those losing their jobs.

Lets wait and see maybe?? That will help with putting food on the table so I’m sure they will be reassured. like I said leavers remainers just two different types of people you talked about debate and educate I’m sure you don’t mean to be patronising iv spoke to you privately you have got what you have with working hard all yr life and deserve what you have just like most leavers are hard working people grafted all there lives and have what they deserve most people who voted leave are working class people so to keep telling them they fucked up and don’t know the damage they’ve caused but you do is a bit patronising don’t you think

I agree I used the wrong word educate .I should have said inform.

Also I agree people work hard on both sides of the debate so it makes it more tragic to see the powers that rule our lives blame the EU bogey man for their own failures over the last 50-60 years.

The rich in this country are getting richer and the average worker very much left behind.

"

can you tell me a time in history when the rich have t got richer and the poor poorer as this never happened in the eu ? A lot of people on here make out the bogey man is the U.K. lol

Step 1. Agree what the problems are.

Step 2. Do whatever you normally do to push for positive change. Write to your MP. Don't vote for arseholes, attend protests, etc etc. Force the government to work for us, instead of for themselves.

It's too late for "getting back in". The damage is done. And we'd never be allowed back with the rebates, veto and other benefits. So I agree with you there.

The EU ship has sailed.

Meanwhile, people still celebrate that we were lied to and fucked over. So what hope is there for any positive change?

Fuck knows.

Do you pay your employees over the going rate?"

Actually yes we do. We poach good staff for the technical by paying more and the manual workers are paid way over the going rate. We have to as we’re up against multinationals.

We’re a good employer. I treat others how I want to be treated. I’ve been at the bottom of the food chain.

We have a two party system in the U.K. and they keep power to themselves and the old school system.

In Europe there were political parties from all areas of viewpoint and agenda fighting to make a difference for the average working people as well as environmental stuff. Some of those parties were shit some good but the wide range meant everyone had to compromise and there wasn’t one centre of power like we have.

It was cumbersome but so is Germany’s system and they seem to be doing a lot better than us.

The more I see Proportional Representation the more I think it’s a better fairer way of governing.

It’s messy but it takes everyone’s view into account. I was against it years ago but I can see it now!

It seems ridiculous that were still arguing how shit brexit it. People will hang on to the brexit fantasy for as long as they live. No matter how shit it is.

How did we even get back to this silly argument!

It seems pretty ridiculous people are still arguing about brexit full stop.its happend now no matter how much you hate it its not gona change anything.all i see is those who didnt want to leave telling people how bad its going to get and those who wanted out saying how great its going to be.no one knows how shit or great it gona be.we could end up fighting each other for food and shelter or it could turn out fine.reakon itsgona take a few years to see one way or the other

True but it’s costing jobs now! What do you say to those losing their jobs.

Lets wait and see maybe?? That will help with putting food on the table so I’m sure they will be reassured. like I said leavers remainers just two different types of people you talked about debate and educate I’m sure you don’t mean to be patronising iv spoke to you privately you have got what you have with working hard all yr life and deserve what you have just like most leavers are hard working people grafted all there lives and have what they deserve most people who voted leave are working class people so to keep telling them they fucked up and don’t know the damage they’ve caused but you do is a bit patronising don’t you think

I agree I used the wrong word educate .I should have said inform.

Also I agree people work hard on both sides of the debate so it makes it more tragic to see the powers that rule our lives blame the EU bogey man for their own failures over the last 50-60 years.

The rich in this country are getting richer and the average worker very much left behind.

can you tell me a time in history when the rich have t got richer and the poor poorer as this never happened in the eu ? A lot of people on here make out the bogey man is the U.K. lol

We have a two party system in the U.K. and they keep power to themselves and the old school system.

In Europe there were political parties from all areas of viewpoint and agenda fighting to make a difference for the average working people as well as environmental stuff. Some of those parties were shit some good but the wide range meant everyone had to compromise and there wasn’t one centre of power like we have.

It was cumbersome but so is Germany’s system and they seem to be doing a lot better than us.

The more I see Proportional Representation the more I think it’s a better fairer way of governing.

It’s messy but it takes everyone’s view into account. I was against it years ago but I can see it now!

"

I think your right in that the PR system is fairer. Some countries it works but others change governments at a hell of a rate as not strong enough. The Greens and even the old UKIP would have gotten more seats in general elections had we used PR but if its a better representation of the country then could be a positive

So Merkel must have been poor before the last election and obviously by that token and your logic the Tories must have been great before the last election and must be doing ok now as they and boris are higher in the polls than labour and captain hindsite

British people will also have the chance to show their feelings with their votes in elections to come. I think some are due in May.

"Interesting how some are picking fault with Germany and yet their society seems better organised and their politicians represent the people far more. When did the greens in this country ever come up in a general political chat. It’s because their votes in an election never count in this country but in Germany they do.

Interesting how it’s us writing off debt that’s made Germany so great. They took on east Germany which is those of you old enough to remember was a bankrupt communist state. ( although not as bad as most). It was in our interests to demolish the Warsaw Pact countries as we couldn’t afford the arms race either.

The U.K. trails in Germany’s wake financially and the whataboutary doesn’t stop that from being fact.

Envy comes to mind.

Anyway if you’re too churlish to allow yourself to recognise an amazing politician then that reflects on you not her. "

I will give your comments as much credit as they deserve. Your knowledge of thing’s beyond your tv screen & left of centre MSM shows you to be the type of person you are x now repeat the left mantra of deny & lie until you believe it to be the truth. How about this listen to people who know the truth, it is out there for you to find too you x honestly you really are not a puppet of the left x.

It would be interesting to see how the Tories would have faired in the last 3 elections with FPP . Would only getting 35% of the popular vote be considered a catastrophe ? I’m not sure of the percentage so feel free to correct me. It dies however show the similarities.
