Cable Forum - Brexit (Old)

On the contrary, its the 'true Brexit believers' that have their heads in the sand, denying the economic reality, and chaos that's unfolding.

Brexit is a romantic but rubbish idea no matter how you dislike the imperfect EU.

well said that man :clap::clap::clap::clap:

My head is NOT in the sand. I’m proud to stand up for my country and vote us out of a pathetic con job membership club where we are only one of a handful of the members, who puts more in than we get out, we can self govern and live in prosperity outside the rotten EU. We do not need the corrupted EU to thrive.

It’s you Remainers with your heads in the sand. Not us Brexiteers!!!

And you would also selfishly destroy democracy to get your own way.

You lost. Us leavers won and we are strong, my head still stands high above my shoulders. Not in the sand.

Wondering how fishing will change after Brexit - it would appear not a lot. Small low impact fishing trawlers will still be up against the big 5.

And we will solve those issues. Not a problem, I don’t want those poisonous cretins accommodating us. They never have but gladly took our con job membership fee.

Until what ?

We remain in the Customs Union in a never ending 'transition period', still in the EU in all but name, but with no say or influence and still bound by EU rules? Costing us billions more upon the extra billions this whole shambles has already cost us ? Looking forward to that ! (enjoy the celebrations, because it'll be a very long hangover when you wake up to reality.......):rolleyes:

The sooner we leave that stinking bureaucratic, monolithic organisation, the better.

Gladly, first advice I'd give her is to resign and let a true Brexiteer steer the ship out of the EU Storm, needs someone's heart who is a true Brexiteer and believes in that Britain is way better out of a rotten EU empire that cons us of a hefty membership fee.

Wrong yet again as l voted for remain but l have no love affair with the EU l can assure you but yet again here we have some of the people who voted for Brexit insulting and belittling those who did not vote for it.

Its a unintelligent vacuous straw man argument which frankly to put it bluntly is insulting to many that voted for remain.

So enough of posts like this every time he says something about a Remainer, he is not talking about YOU - I could easily become offended every time a Remainer starts dissing a Brexiteer, but I don't.

As for the accusations of belittling and insulting, yes, over the last page, us Brexiteers have been, by being classed as ignorant and being told our heads are in the sand which is utter rubbish and I have said so, I took no offense to such ridiculous categorisations.

Quote from Yahoo finance:

The EU’s budget chief has ruled out the prospect of the UK keeping “the mother of all rebates” if Brexit is abandoned.

Gunther Oettinger said on Friday that he would find it “absolutely fabulous” if British voters decided to remain in the EU through a second referendum.

But he dealt a blow to campaigners calling for a ‘people’s vote’ by confirming the UK would have to pay more into the EU budget if it remained.

Speaking to reporters in Brussels, he said: “Even if, in the improbable but pleasant case that the UK were to remain – I would certainly find that to be absolutely fabulous but I can’t imagine it – in that instance then the gradual exit from the rebate would still be kept.

“I think that’s something which is no longer appropriate.”

His comments are likely to be seized on by Brexit supporters as proof the UK is better off outside the EU.

So remaining would cost the UK an EXTRA £4bn a year. That'll look good on the side of a bus. :D

Well those ‘poisonous cretins’ never accommodated us apart from;

Economic and monetary union, AKA the Euro
Charter of fundamental rights
Schengen Agreement
Area of Freedom, Security and Justice

Plus, of course a big old rebate.

In contrast, it is the Brexiters who ignore the economists who state leaving the EU will cause a long term negative impact on the UK and not just a short sharp shock.
