Had an email from a friend in the USA and she was quite taken aback at how we do things here. She said it is so fast and US media are calling it 'brutal'...
Of course what the Yanks really do not get is that no one had to cough up £ Billions to do all this power change.
... cue 'Brexit Tax' comments .... |

This isn't party political, but some might say it's brutal but at least it's more or less done and they can get on with the job at hand.
Labour have managed to tie themselves in knots. |

Corbyn ignored the true Labour voters thought too. It was no ones fault other than the EU itself. People might be working class or poor or whatever but most are not thick and see the EU for what it is. Shite |

Agreed.
I would add that outside of the London socialist elite Corbyn wouldn't know a real Labour voter if he poked him in the eye. |

I never saw anyone say no one would want to trade with us, but we can't start formal negotiations until after we have left the EU, and then it's expected to take 5-10 years for each one. |

So are you really trying to tell us there will be zero trade with the 5th largest economy for 5 to 10 years?
Really?
We can leave the EU very quickly as soon as mutual citizen rights are agreed. Everything else is trade and relations.
One 'Enabling Bill' in the House will change all EU treaties into UK Treaties (with the partners agreement) and given the agreements the EU negotiated penalised those partners (witness Africa) They will hardly object to harmonised Tariffs. Example? UK built cars to the USA face 2.5% duties. US cars to the UK face 10% duties.
The other Bilateral Agreements are what they say: Two way agreements between the UK and the partner. We also have a global trading agreement through the Commonwealth that is preferential to anything partners have with the EU.
We are OK with the rest of the world with whom we do more business than the EU as proven by (I think) 23 countries requesting new trade deals. It is the EU that will take ages as it needs agreement from 27 countries and why the Canadian deal took 7 years and TTIP is lost in the long grass. And why we are patently better off out of the sclerosis... |

As said above. The US. China and India have already made contact for a deal, and most other commonwealth country's are making preparations.
All this 7/8 year nonsense is based on the EU deal with Canada which has dragged on and on mostly because of EU politics. One of the main stumbling blocks has been over Romanian visa's which the EU is trying to force Canada to accept as part of the deal. Why the hell should Britain's trade with Canada be bogged down because of Romanian visa's?
Ditto a deal with Australia that has been dragging on for years because of objections from Italian tomato growers.
Country's all over the world sort out deals in a matter of months, it is only the sclerotic EU that takes years because there are always politics attached.
As for a deal with the 27 remaining EU country's I accept that may take a bit longer (reasons as stated above) but if they want to slap a 10% duty on British built cars for example then Britain will do the same to theirs.
Imagine the shock in Germany if that coincided with a deal with the US at 2.5%. I think Cadillac becoming the new Mercedes and Corvette becoming the new Porsche would focus a few minds.
Or how about reversing the current tariffs on wine where the new world pays an extra penalty tax to export into the EU. Drop the duty from South Africa, Australia, Chile Etc. And pop it on to Burgundy, Champagne, and Rioja. I think that would be quite sobering in Paris and Madrid.
The EU may have a strong hand but they don't hold all the cards. Britain still has an ace or two up its sleeve.

Because in many things they manufacture what we don't and we manufacture what they don't. The clue is in trade "deal"
As for deluded ramblings. Maybe you should tell that to Merkel, Hollande, and Renzi, who are having their own summit next month (excluding the EU commission) to discuss what to do about Brexit. Juncker Schulz and Tusk are already being sidelined by the real powers. In fact it is looking more and more likely that Schulz has already blown his chance for a second term in office. Since Brexit and because of his beligerence towards Britain, Merkels CDU/CSU alliance have withdrawn their support for him and as the biggest block in the EU parliaments conservative group will almost certainly take the whole group with them. There are also very strong voices in Germany and France that want to see Juncker fired as well.
I'm quite happy to take another look in around a year's time and let history be the judge. Are you? |

I didn’t say that there would be zero trade, I said that there wouldn’t be trade deals.
Can we agree that trade deals are a good thing? Its better to have them than to not have them?

how is your financial powerhouse of Spain doing at this moment, 50 year mortgages, importation of all fossil fuels, 50% youth unemployment & 68% of youths willing to leave the country in search of a job, negative inflation, housing / property market crash, bank credit ratings down to "junk" and begging to the EBC,

errr .. because India and China are massive markets with huge growth potential?
China is the UK's 6th biggest Export Market. So they must be buying something ..!!
The Chinese and Indians (you do know Tata is Indian?) are actually investing huge amounts in the UK. That is positive inward investment from which thousands of new British jobs will be created.
The UK has been chosen by the Chinese to lead their new Asia Investment Fund and London will be the sole trading point for their currency. So I think there is more to a Chinese trading relationship than 'cheap goods'. Of course you never buy cheap jeans or clothes or phones or whatever made in China do you?

"Laughing at us, whilst looking to make trade deals with us
and forming a queue to suck the Boris cock
If that's what it takes to get a deal then so be it.
Funny how the remainers were telling us that the world would run a mile and now they are elbowing each other out of the way to be at the front of the queue.
Where on earth did you dig that bulls**t up from until we sort out how we will trade with the other 27 nations we traded with what other lunatic nation would want to do a new deal in the UK's favor
As said above. The US. China and India have already made contact for a deal, and most other commonwealth country's are making preparations.
All this 7/8 year nonsense is based on the EU deal with Canada which has dragged on and on mostly because of EU politics. One of the main stumbling blocks has been over Romanian visa's which the EU is trying to force Canada to accept as part of the deal. Why the hell should Britain's trade with Canada be bogged down because of Romanian visa's?
Ditto a deal with Australia that has been dragging on for years because of objections from Italian tomato growers.
Country's all over the world sort out deals in a matter of months, it is only the sclerotic EU that takes years because there are always politics attached.
As for a deal with the 27 remaining EU country's I accept that may take a bit longer (reasons as stated above) but if they want to slap a 10% duty on British built cars for example then Britain will do the same to theirs.
Imagine the shock in Germany if that coincided with a deal with the US at 2.5%. I think Cadillac becoming the new Mercedes and Corvette becoming the new Porsche would focus a few minds.
Or how about reversing the current tariffs on wine where the new world pays an extra penalty tax to export into the EU. Drop the duty from South Africa, Australia, Chile Etc. And pop it on to Burgundy, Champagne, and Rioja. I think that would be quite sobering in Paris and Madrid.
The EU may have a strong hand but they don't hold all the cards. Britain still has an ace or two up its sleeve.
More deluded ramblings ..think about who we need free trade deals with coz its certainly not china and India why would we want even more cheap goods flooding our markets further hitting our own manufacturing industry
Your market is the financial powerhouse of Spain. Leave us Brits to get on with our joyous lives "
Which part of having a UK passport makes me less British than you ? ..joyous life in the UK another deluded thread .. |

Hopefully someone in this new stiffer backboned government will tell Cameron that he can foot the extra costs he agreed to when he overruled the senior civil servants and gave the special advisors 6 months severance instead of 4..
about an extra £280k and that without the ones who are offski after May's clear out..
