Re: Post-Brexit Thread

There's not a lot to say right now.

However to help things out a bit, how about a story on how we could join the EEA on a Norway type deal and get an emergency break on immigration, a bit like the one we already had.

Wouldn't be as good a deal as the current one, mind.

Another one to help conversation is that, even if Article 50 were invoked, it can be withdrawn.

Have at it.

Indeed. We'll have at least 2 years for argument and recriminations once the economic picture is clearer and A50 has been invoked, so a moment of pause is just fine.

Before anymore debate we need to see some action rather then the continual tit for tat amongst both sides.

There is a good article here about the vote and what the coming consequences might be: http://www.lrb.co.uk/v38/n15/john-la...r/brexit-blues

Re: Post-Brexit Thread

Most of us don't want a Norway style deal only remainers would be happy with that what leavers want is no more money going from the UK to the EU, no more freedom of movement and no EU involvement in our internal affairs. If that means no access to the single market so be it we will develop trade elsewhere there is a vast amount waiting for us and more countries looking to develop trade with us then we'd lose in the medium to long-term. Short term yes we will take a hit but we will recover this country is more then able to survive outside the EU and the single market despite what the trendy doom sayers constantly repeat and a lot of them are just being selfish worried more about their financial investments then the real good of the UK.

Getting sick and tired of the constant talking down of the UK by a sizable group who know damn well that they are part of the problem, have more faith in your country and it's people most of whom have far less in material things but more faith in the ability if this country to succeed.

How do you know what leavers want, what you mean is you know what you want and don't try and tell us the deal on offer is what remainers want because I'm one of them and I said over and over this was the worst option available

Re: Post-Brexit Thread

I said most not all and clearly most don't want freedom of movement and as it was made clear we couldn't have access to the the single market unless we had freedom of movement clearly most people knew when they cast their vote and were happy to forego the single market. As to my comment on mainly remainers wanting the Norway style deal well they have been the only one's talking about it now being the best option so maybe get off your high horse a bit.

No you didn't you clearly stated only remainers would be happy with that. What leavers want etc so maybe try reading all of your own posts and not just the first line, a bit and what's becoming more clear each day is exactly how little people knew on the day of the vote but then that's how the kipper money man liked it what with his people are sick of facts comment.

Re: Post-Brexit Thread

Well I haven't heard any leavers opting for a Norway style deal either only time I've heard it talked about as a "best option" is by remainers so yes that's the overriding impression I've got and isn't that how we form opinions. Also hasn't taken you long to go into "didn't know what they were voting for" mode and again all the people I know that voted leave were well aware of what their vote meant and why they were choosing leave so most did know full well what they were voting for. I'll be happy to read about leavers being happy to accept a Norway style deal and being happy to accept freedom of movement as you clearly have that information.

Re: Post-Brexit Thread

As not being in a single market DOESN'T mean no access, would there be a huge difference? Any restrictions or tariffs work BOTH ways. We can impose them on EU goods.

Good idea - let's get in to a trade war with our biggest export market...

I'd be happy to read about a Norwegian who was happy about the deal they got.

I wonder how many people you know, 1.2 million or less

My point is why would the EU want a trade war with us in the first place? If they did, we can respond in kind. What big difference is there between the EU single market and tariff and restriction free trading?
