Quote our trade deal with china belonging to the single market - China alone it cost us 3 billion to the EU- now that we only deal with 45 percent with the EU tarrifs free in the so called custom union which cost us 8 billion to be a member the Custom union is too expensive for us hence we want out!
The thing is, to an avid leave voter, it looks like it’s those bullies at the EU making things difficult for us, further reinforcing there opinion. The government are getting off easy.

Most of us are. She's an incompetent fool along with a good chuck of her party. Just a pity that the opposition that should be holding her to account is also a shambles.
She is making a hash of it but what do you want us to do Mikey? Storm number 10 and overthrow the government or just demand that she do her job better? BTW, your assuming yet again that we all voted out for the same reason which as has been repeatedly pointed out is not the case. I simply can't get my head around that line "your just letting them". What does that even mean? Nobody in this country ever holds our politicians to account on anything, EVER.
Again how are we supposed to "stay on top" of what the politcal elite in this country do? Since when have people ever been able to control what our politicians do in any circumstances? I'm sincerely interested in any suggestion you might have in my holding the government to account. Then you say "the Brexit you say you want", you do realise that loads of us voted for very diffrent reasons and will therefore have a very diffrent perception on what a good Brexit would be.
Do our job for us? You've lost me Mikey, what job are you and any other average Joe remainer doing that I'm not? Do you just mean leave politicians? Well You might of noticed that some of them have been quite critical of May. You do know she was a remainer herself don't you and as leader of the government she doesn't have to listen to anyone she doesn't want to.
I could ask the same question in reverse. Do you want to remain at any cost?

Welcome back Wayne
The remainers are doing a very good job for the EU......
Future generations will be glad that we did stand up Pete.
It’s a shame we didn’t have more informed debates like this before the actual vote as at least people would have known the reality of what they were actually deciding upon.
Thing is, people’s opinions have barely changed. Whilst I agree there was very little reasoned and mature debate beforehand, it seems most voters had made their mind up a long time ago and very little has changed since for people to question their votes.
It will be a hard lesson then, experienced by the working class only of course.

Well we know more now, but I doubt many people have changed their minds........

As regards doing the EU’s work for them and undermining the UK’ s negotiating positions, I think future generations will come to despise the self serving remainer politicians.......I already do lol ....
That suggests you think the UK will be disadvantaged in the future due to Brexit? Why else the anger vs the politicians of this time?

Welcome back Wayne
It means we may have to concede more to the EU than we would wish, supported by Blair, Soubry, et al.......
I think this is the first time I have read you saying that all may not be good the other side of Brexit.
No our exit financial bill will be greatear because of Blair - Major - and that witch soubry!
So life after Brexit may not be as good as you hope Joe?
