Cable Forum - Brexit (Old)

Well it’s just their opinion on it as the idea they’re not is yours. My opinion is they were part of cabinet, part of government, people who campaigned for it and in some cases involved with the process so they share some blame.

Well they don't - as I have said - they were not steering the ship - they have said after leaving their positions they were overruled by the PM or they were bypassed in most of the behind the scene negotiations.

Like Jeremy Corbyn said and I happen to agree with him on this one thing and that is rare - the Brexit Secretary is a Ceremonial role only.

Not very often you see a European advocating Brexit.

I have absolutely no issue with that, what should we charge EU nationals to enter the U.K.?

I think £10 has a nice round feel to it.

No deal Brexit is the only way forward now.

I look forward to it.

For most countries we do not have a such a program. For a few select countries the fee is £15.

I don't think we would introduce it specifically for the EU but if we did do such a program then I imagine it would be £15 for everyone.

The post-Brexit drop in the £ hasn't achieved this, it's just led to some of our crown jewel companies like ARM being taken over by overseas companies.

But make the 50% of our food that we import more expensive, though.

Are you going to back that statement with any evidence?

Indeed, we could make food less expensive, by importing food and not having to impose EU tariffs
