They'll be hanging around a while to ensure no deal and manipulating the media to blame the beastly EU.

Instead of a one word put down, try giving us the benefit of how you think brexit will pan out. What should we be aiming for for instance, in projected trade deals with the EU, USA, China, etc. This is not about which side told the more lies in the referendum campaign, or the complete failure of the Tories to come to a decent agreement with the EU in the past 3 years.
The referendum and election are in the past; I wasn't happy with the result of either, but it's now water under the bridge.
How do you see things proceeding?

Could that not be done in one of the other Brexit threads?
Zero need for an additional thread which sole purpose is to antagonise.
1.
Britain will have almost complete control of its laws and regulations, without having to have policies imposed as part of the collective decisions of a political Union (sort of).
2. We can grow our fishing industry by exercising our right to exclusively fish our territorial waters. We will of course need to invest heavily in our fishing fleet and will have no guaranteed access to EU markets where we sell most of our catch.

People with lower life expectancies are happier.
I think the government should bulk buy fish from Europe and restock our waters
Fair effort.
Of course, we lose the influence we had with the other 27 states and the collective legislation followed there.
And it may have been absurd that British territorial waters are full of Spanish and Dutch fishermen, but even if every boat was British, it is a tiny part of the economy. In comparison with, say, the amount of banking and insurance business moving to the EU from Britain, it is not a very fair exchange. And then there are exclusion from the European satellites, and no more European Arrest Warrants, and loss of the European Medicines Agency. It is not immediately apparent how we will fill the gaps.

We do anyways, most the fish we consume in UK the can't be caught in British waters. Its either from EU or countries such as Norway.

I assure you I am not trying to "antagonise" as you put it. The debate regarding in or out, in my view, has finished; we are out, albeit now in a transitional (?) period. The focus now needs to be on what trade deals are to be made, and whether these are going to benefit the country, amongst other issues such as security, immigration etc. Surely people have some idea of how they think the repercussions of leaving, will pan out, and be confident to list the "benefits".
Enough of "sunlit uplands", "oven ready deals".......this is the reality now.
You miss my point my friend.... for Brexit to really work we need to buy live fish from Europe and set them free in our waters for our own fishermen to catch
Which means ????
This was not done to antagonise.
@Joey66 wanted a new thread: in the EU In or Out thread "This thread in or out has to end as we are now IN not relevant - perhaps the thread should concentrate on a now Brexit thread of it's own - we have now left, I understand there will be serious negotiations, but the word IN is now irrelevant ... "
We won't be part of it any more.
