Yeah. Agree with a lot of that, but to balance your argument you also have the Brexit supporting press acting like this is world war 3. I'm sick of all this winning and losing rhetoric tbh. It should just be about getting a deal which all parties desperately need. But you know that whatever happens, both sides will claim victory.

If we leave on WTO terms, Leavers will say that it was the EUs fault and we are better off out of it. Remainers will say I told you so and a FTA was always a pipedream. If we get a deal, Leavers will say it was a victory for Boris and that the EU caved in. Remainers will say Boris sold out the fishermen or something similar.

We are, and will be for a very long time, very much a divided country. Whatever the economic fallout from Brexit I think it's this division that will have the longer lasting effect on our society.

Yeah, I have everything crossed that we don't leave on WTO terms, I couldn't give a damn which party/side claims that as their victory.

I read that 43% of EU exports go to the UK? so it's not like the EU have nothing to lose there.

Perhaps you mean that 43% of UK imports come from the EU.
That's a different story.

It is bad news goods being stuck in transit... Not all Hornby manufacturing is in China they have some manufacturing here in the UK, but let's not allow fact to get in the way of a leavers emotional state of mind. Hornby have manufacturing in Newhaven, East Sussex. Not Kent so it's in England! ;)

Talking of manufacturing going overseas, been mentioned before least we forget.

Excellent that within days a prominent leave supporter left the UK for Monaco and then did a u-turn to switch his car plant from Wales to France. Give that man a knighthood. Oh he already has one.

Majority of their stuff is made in China but that applies to loads of firms.
Saw that about Ratcliffe. Bad news he picked there but he obviously wants a car site that is pretty much set up already. The factory is there with a skilled workforce.

Think you assume that I am a leaver. I voted to remain but we have left now so let's get on with it. The EU don't want us to do as well as them and that's fair enough. Other countries might leave if they see us doing well. Me I hope we do really well an I'm not bothered about the EU now. Let's get on with it

Leavers slapping each other on the back. Because Hornby apparently manufacturers everything in China. Despite factory here in the UK for several years now! Leavers and Stupid are synonymous!

So not everything?

And if you want to go with the mantra we are all leavers now, go head! But I won't.
