Current Affairs The benefits of Brexit Page

To me its like this, we survived before the EU, Common Market, EEA etc.....we will survive and prosper again.

I have little to no trust in any politicians UK, EU or ROW, but there is nothing I can do about EU or ROW. I only have 1 vote and its not going to be given lightly due to my mistrust in politicians of all persuasions. I want my vote to mean something, the rights for us mere working class were not gained easily. It has to mean something.

Right wing, left wing I don't give a d@mn, what I want is whats best for me, my loved ones and the choices I make are based on that

I'm sure you'll find that if, as we want to do, we reduce regulation 'red tape/bureaucracy' and we reduce individual freedoms 'scrap the Human Rights Act/remove free movement', remove judicial review 'stop the courts interfering' then those rights will be almost impossible to regain.

Reads like a leaver bingo card this.

Just missing remoaner and will of the people for house.

100 percent guarentee there are no predictions of short term pain before 2019

So greed for you and your household, misplaced greed but greed all the same. You genuinely don't care how much pain your decisions can cause as long as it's kept out of your household?

It’s a line we’re hearing more and more. Not sure what qualifies as short term pain when we have been in this ‘age of austerity’ for the past decade. Also doubt it will be those that are most well off that will be left feeling the pinch here.
For the most well off this may mean losing a few grand on their house. For the least well off this will mean evictions and going without food.

Just a little recession of short term pain to get that feeling of sovereignty back underneath you

We leave the EU, so the excuse by whatever government is in power that we have to take EU nationals disappears. Then they take the risk of being dumped out of power if they continue the current levels of immigration.

That 'we' 'have to take' EU nationals? Are you for real? I can only presume you've never lived in another country before, as you seem to be under the impression that people just hop on the plane and head off willy nilly, and certainly don't choose to move somewhere because they've got a job lined up or a place to live or any of those things. The person(s) that are employing that individual clearly think they're wanted, but lets allow someone completely disconnected from the situation to judge it instead, or better yet, lets allow someone like you who has absolutely no idea about that person, their circumstances, or what their plans are, to judge them instead.

The worst thing isn't that you want to do something so absurd, but that you have no comprehension just how absurd it is.

It just comes back to this again, we can't vote out the people in the EU that make the directives, at least when we leave the EU if our government does something we don't like we have the choice to get rid.

I don't like the current government and what it's doing. Tell me, what can i do about it?

We've got the old style British Passports back tho...that's one benefit.

Guess where they are made.....*******drum roll...********

France...you couldn't make the hypocrisy up if you tried yet more and more people swallow the bs

Whats with the Bingo references? You and Connor, just don't get it.

That is the key point there. If they fail to do that, then the facts and evidence will not matter. This is my point. People will vote for what they believe - not necessarily for what is true. I don't think we are in complete disagreement here.

As somebody who has been there and done it, can I just give you some advice guys. Don't do it to yourselves. Nobody is really interested in what you have to say. They just want to pull your views to pieces. Hence the bingo comments.

Unless you are in here purely to WUM, or are incredibly thick skinned, they'll just wear you down in the end. Just leave them to their forum where they can post their anti Brexit messages and poke fun at our expense, and with a bit of luck they'll get bored eventually.

No idea mate.

Nor do you. But you swallow the Elgin Marbles link, from a leaked document.

Leaked by who? Why?

Answer those, and you will get a clue why some of us are a bit queasy about who are driving this. And why.

roydo,

roydo, the issue is not knowing why these issues were included in the draft Trade negotiation document or the fact that they were leaked. The issue is that it was included (along with the Gibralter issue) in a draft document on trade negotiations. As I said in my previous post, typical EU playing silly beggars.

Or you could actually post about some actual benefits of Brexit?

I voted to leave because I didn’t like the flag. I now realise what a bad idea that was. I have been a fool.

I didn’t understand I was voting to be Europe’s North Korea. Are we going to have to get our haircut in a certain way? Does anybody have a brochure with the photos of what options I have? I was growing mine into a bob – I hope that’s in the brochure.

Will I still be able to go to Albufeira in May for my holidays? If I am - Will I be chaperoned? Will they even serve me in the bars? Will I have to get the chaperone one? It’s going to cost me a fortune! I had planned, after that, to tour Europe this year in my big red double decker bus. I was going to test the free health care in Latvia, buy a property in Hungary and start a business in Finland. On my reaching Slovenia I was going to stand as an MEP. I suppose this plan has been scuppered?

Will we still be able to buy croissants? What about lasagne? OMG!! Pizza!!! What about pizza!?! Tell me we will still be able to get pizza!! I’m not too worried about the croissants – I was just buying them to look a bit more European anyway.

Will we get kicked out of the Champions League if we qualify? That’s just so typical isn’t it!! Go To Hell Boris!!! Will Carlo Ancelotti have to go back to Italy? This is not good – not good at all. Thank God Barcelona didn’t come in for Big Dunc after his glorious stint in December.

What about the Eurovision Song Contest? Can we still enter that? Can we even watch it now? Can I still listen to Opus and Abba? Please tell me I can still play my Boney M records!!

Will we have to stop using foreign words like “paparazzi” and “Hors d’oeuvre”? Will we have to call Aston Villa, Aston House now? What about “kindergarten”? I have a four year old niece – will she miss out on that? I call the coffee house “La maison du café” – because I think I’m hella funny. That’ll have to stop won’t it?

God Damn It!! If only I’d liked the flag.

I quite like the flag. When I was working I always liked to match a yellow tie with a blue shirt.

You can't beat a yellow tie with a blue shirt mate!!! On a flag though, I'm not so sure. It looks like a failed clock.
