So are you saying if things go wrong or even well we should never try to join the EU again.?

This eu debate has took an amazing twist. Mad.
The tories were divided on Europe. As their were many in the Labour Party who wanted us out as well.
The country was broke when Labour lost to Cameron due to the financial crisis. The tories responded with the Austerity mantra ably supported by the lib dems. Makes you wonder what would have hppappened if all the money they have spent on covid had been used instead of the austerity We are all in this together mantra
From an expert!
Tesco chairman John Allan told BBC Radio 4's World this Weekend that overall the post-Brexit agreement with the EU was a "good outcome, certainly far better than having no deal".
"There'll be a little bit more administration associated with importing as well as exporting," he said.
"But, in absolute terms, I think that will hardly be felt in terms of the prices that consumers are paying."

It peaked when we were told that someone had voted to leave the EU because they had banned salt...

The country wasn’t broke when Labour lost in 2010; if anything it’s been broke for years but what mattered was the willingness to run up debt.
Cameron pretended he wasn’t but ran it up anyway whilst also selling off money generating assets and bringing in cuts, many of which have required much more money to fix than they recouped in “savings”.
Now Johnson’s spending like a drunken sailor, without any real way of fixing it short of a large scale writeoff (which could happen given how most of the world has made the same sort of spending) or a big raid on the rich (which won’t happen).
If they’d (and I include Labour in this) spent sensibly and not on financial wheezes like PFI and propping up landlords then we’d be much better off.
Educated guessing
Tesco is an importer of goods. It's pretty well established that the deal is okay for goods. Hopefully you'll have listened to the whole program on Radio 4 and heard the person from accounting firm EY on before him saying that the trade agreement is much less useful for a service-based firm, not least because it does so little for them in terms of both accessing the talent they need, and then being able to deploy that talent across Europe. That's not a guess btw, educated or otherwise.

Pete, we disrespected everyone by confirming our intent to knowingly break international agreements.
Johnson would readily understand the long established concept of Dictum Mewm Pactum better than most who didn’t benefit from an Eton education (My word is my bond)
Most specifically and directly we disrespected the EU, but also the US and indirectly anyone else currently thinking of doing a deal with us.
If we have few natural allies in Europe, I think that perhaps says more about us than them.
All that now remains is for Johnson to emulate his childish egotistical twin across the Atlantic, by implementing some of his new found power in the form of a direct and obvious snub to the EU.
This lot are far from finished in making us look stupid on the world stage. They are unfortunately, collectively unencumbered by intellect.

Welcome back Wayne
It was a negotiating ploy and I said so at the time. It wound up all the U.K. Remainers but it hit home with the EU that Boris was different to May and all the other arse lickers. It was probably the single most important act in helping to deliver an FTA.
Countries are queuing up to sign deals with the U.K., either Turkey or India will be next......

You like the remaining leavers would not be here in this thread if that was really the case. And if the evidence was in favour of this deal those who think this is just bitter racist endeavour, would be long gone. Nowhere near finished this just rumble on and on.
Utterly pointless posting these, but needs must after cringe overreact Johnson
