When was the last time you ever heard a prospective PM trying to get elected using a "i will vote xxxx into the European Commission " ticket.The EC is responsible for legislation and day to day running of the EU ,that's the bit that effects all of us in very real ways,we get no vote on that and interestingly these leaders that are promoted by the elected leaders of sovereign nations are duty bound by their oath of office to represent the general interests of the EU NOT their country of origin .So not democratic,not elected by citizens and not working in member states interests

Could you imagine the reverse if Remain had won, and HMG decided to go for 'Hard Remain' and joined the Euro, Schengen, etc.?

Do you actually believe Brexiteers would have kept quiet? Would they have been 'Fifth Columnists' and 'traitors' if they had spoken out against those?

Article 3(2) of the Treaty on European Union (TEU); Articles 4(2)(a), 20, 26 and 45-48 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union (TFEU).
Directive 2004/38/EC on the right of citizens of the Union and their family members to move and reside freely within the territory of the Member States; Regulation (EU) No 492/2011 on freedom of movement for workers within the Union; Regulation (EC) No 883/2004 on the coordination of social security systems and its implementing Regulation (EC) No 987/2009

We'd have to slap tariffs on products throughout the world or have tariffs on none unless we had free trade agreements.

We can't trade tariff free with everyone as it'd destroy much of what's left of our manufacturing base.

We can't have free trade agreements until our schedule of tariffs and quotas is sorted with the WTO.

We need agreement from the 163+ members of the WTO on our schedule before it's ratified.

I appreciate if you listen to the three Brexiteers and their fan club none of this is an issue, there's no legal ambiguity at all and it'll be smooth as silk. I'm just going by what the guy in charge of accession to the WTO said, under the possibly mistaken impression he knows more these matters than Boris Johnson or David Davis.

It would be awesome if it were that simple, and businesses far less stressed.

Re: Post-Brexit Thread

They'll sort that. Unilever have already managed to get their prices accepted at other places. Most likely they'll cut a deal with Tesco.

I was told in no uncertain terms that they are the wrong type of expert,they don't count.

The right kind of experts are the one's that predict UKplc being swallowed up in black hole of financial ruin

The right kind of experts are those without an axe to grind, and are not pushing either side of the agenda...

(Not the ones you agree with you...)
