You're not speaking for me mate. I'd take a poor deal over no deal.

I just don't think this is about Brexit anymore. It's every bit as much about healing the rift in the country once Brexit has been sorted.

That's kinda my point. You are a moderate leave voter. But want a deal.

I'm more hard-line. I want to leave and if it's without a deal... So be it. But I want to leave with a deal that suits us.

The EU is our biggest trading partner... Let's be sensible. The EU have been anything but
 
Ok thanks I can see what you are saying now. Honestly I'm not taking the worst case scenario figures to frighten, the financial sector is apparently worth 20% of GDP, this obviously includes your bog standard banking which would still be here but it wouldn't be a push to imagine the investment arms are worth 3-5% of that if not more. Add in all the other businesses that leave/change structure and are not around anymore to service the RotW after losing that much of their business within the EU and a 10% hit isn't a huge exaggeration.

That isn't going to happen. People are acting like it's cheap as to up stick s and go somewhere else... It isn't!

I read this thread at the start today. The amount of people saying jobs would go the day after.... Laughable
 
I agree mate.

the problem as I see it is that Boris seems to have promised different people different things. If we end up getting a deal through Parliament by Spring next year then I think he's done a good job as regards Brexit. But he's going to have upset a lot of people along the way, including many in his own party.

His calculation will be can he sell the deal, if there is one, to the UK, and deliver him a GE victory.

Thats it. He could not care less about anything else. If he does, and the deal is sound, well, one will have to say fair play.
 
Easy for them to say that when they knew no deal was off the table. As everyone with a brain cell knew. That has changed now.
You literally said about an hour ago that nobody wants no deal. Everyone keeps saying 'nobody wants no deal', 'the uks aim is a deal'.

People only think you're serious about something if you genuinely consider it an option.

The only difference between the UK and the EU is honesty. If your entire negotiating position is to rely on the most extreme option, it becomes your only option.

Honesty? Ha ha the EU?!? No deal is back on the table and the EU now know that it could happen

How is the U.K. going to sort their border in Ireland? Sort that and I would say you’re in business.
