Current Affairs EU In or Out

Who can see an extension coming?

Woudnt surprise me.

I mean as far as I can ascertain, the sticking points seem more symbolic than actually that important. In the context of an actual trade deal. Fish mainly. And some woolly stuff about state involvement or sommet.

 

[roydo]

Never. They'd have to call it something else so the idiots don't notice.

lol

Mad thing is, if you think about it, if Johnson and the French bloke just said "lets pretend we have this new deal, but keep everything as it is", no one would actually notice any change in anything anyrate.

I said in 2016 that a deal should have been cut with the Mail and Express to publish front page photos of buses of black folks being put on the ferries at Dover for a few weeks and change nothing else. Most Brexiteers would have been happy.

Quite. The actual impact on normal life being in the EU is minimal, and thats being generous.

And the perceived problems with being in the EU are nonsense. But folk buy crap.

There will obviously be a deal, but it's one that will be much worse than membership of the EU and will hurt our GDP by 3-5% as a reasonable estimate.

The EU won't back down on a level playing field, as that'd mean any EU member could just leave, go full on low regulation in a race to the bottom to attract foreign investment. It'd end the project. The Tories want to not have the level playing field, as they could then do just that - erode worker rights, go low tax for corps and skim off the top and make themselves billionaires.

The Brexiteer bedwetters will be getting what they want by January - a UK with a vastly reduced influence on the global stage, worse off economically with no realistic way of ever competing with our current peers on a financial setting ever again, but hey, at least the passports will be blue.

Oh yes. lol

Not me. I appreciate that Macron would like one, but I reckon that Boris will walk away. Macron is playing up to his base, but without a deal his fishermen are going to be blockading his ports and France will have the rest of the EU fishing in their waters... that’s the reality....

The Brexiteers are not the bedwetters, that description unfortunately belongs to the Remainers. The Brexiteers will indeed get what they want, either a good deal or even better a no deal. The small percentage disruption to our GDP will disappear as the country gets back on its feet. It’s over guys, we are out, we have left the room, and we have to stand on our own two feet, and I couldn’t be happier......

We’ll let them in then.....

I know very few Remainers, but of those I do know, all have changed their minds and have become the most ultra Brexiteers due to what they have seen during these negotiations and the EU behaviour. We simply do not like being bullied and the EU will never understand this.....,

Pray tell where you learned of this “bullying” ? Which esteemed and trustworthy journal reported such outrageous behaviour ? Did Barnier de-bag Johnson and nick his dinner money ?

Would this by any chance be the same source that confirmed Pritti Patel definitely wasn’t a bully ?

Just because the EU have competent negotiators who appear to have been miles ahead of our half-wits in planning their strategy, it doesn’t constitute bullying.

Not rolling over and giving up what Johnson demands isn’t bullying. Holding out for the best deal from a very strong starting position isn’t bullying.

Entering serious political negotiations publicly insisting you will cherry pick the outcomes you fancy, describing it as “having your cake and eating it” is half witted buffoonery which disrespects the other party.

I’m surprised the EU haven’t told us to do one and come back when we grow up.

That's their navy too tbh.
