I know you do not care about the consequences of a No Deal, that is the point I made.

Re: Brexit

Presumably Turkey worked towards getting the status it has and, you know, made preparations in the months and years prior?

Since 2016 we’ve went from the easiest negotiation in human history to Theresa’s deal to potentially no deal? Where’s our preparation?

Agreed? Or caved in to the EUs demands.

Really? No benefits whatsoever? Not even free mobile phone roaming?

I can understand on balance not wanting to be in the EU even if I disagree but that's on balance. To say there's no benefit whatsoever is surprising

They'll demand the 39 billion as the price for any association. They've already said that'll be part of the price for a trade deal.

I didn't say it was a big benefit but is still a benefit.

Mind you, my average monthly work mobile bill went from around £60 a month to £25. My company has around 75,000 employees across the EU so it adds up...

It is a big benefit, IMO. But then the Working Time Directive and the extra burden now put onto UK employers to keep the French working practices happy is an example of why we should plough our own furrow.

ANd before any of you stupidly ask if I want to see workers' rights repealed - no I don't. But I don't want an competitive advantage we have by being flexible further eroded by the EU especially under the fake guise of H&S.

This assumes we will have people willing to work these hours. If as is claimed, we have a shortage of workers, making their working hours longer is not really conducive to retaining staff. All this without the dangers of over long hours for those who drive for a living.

In paragraph one you literally say you do want the erosion of workers’ rights.

Who said anything about working longer hour other than you? Through the opt out, we can work longer hours if we want to. It’s about sovereignty and not introducing more overheads on companies tring to compete with their European counterparts.

Literally? I think not. Ploughing our own furrow is not taking more burden from the CJEU. Why do you so blatantly misinterpret my very clear words?
