    Read your manufacturing news, orders are up, firms at e expanding, new firms are making. Also things like British fruit, often disguarded in favour of more pristine looking French, with the falling pound it's a lot more sensible to use it ourselves.

    Doom mongers are totally clueless, read what Meryn King said today

    He said the Bank of England had been trying to reduce house prices, raise interest rates and lower exchange rates for the last three years.

    That was clearly boll*cks.
    Proudly voted remain. A global union of countries is the only way to commit global capital to the rule of law.

    Are your mates there fighting to be controlled from Caracas?


    What wizardry did they employ to get their wares into my home, without SM membership? Magic!


    They are our biggest investment partners, with 1 million of their folk employed in this alone, how is this possible without a trade deal.....arhhhh

    Strange thing about you brexiteers, you were bleating on about parliamentary sovereignty but now you want to deny parliament a say on the terms of the deal. What a sham.

    You mean our exports just got more competitive. Gloom mongers are clueless

    All will be well

    .....and who is our biggest export market.....thats right the EU! The organisation we have alienated by criticism at every turn, our nearest neighbours! Well done to Trump and Farages narrow minded xenophobic little englander lackeys. Most of you are too stupid to see the long term consequences of this decision. The Brexiteers are made up of idiots, dreamers and racists. The types you see at Trumps rallies. Its no suprise that Farage was flown over on a private jet to bolster the crumbling support of the mysoginist bully. The very same nut job who has said we'll be at the front of the queue for a good trade deal if he wins the election....shameful. Middle class elitism from Chakrabarti is nothing in comparison compared to who you are in bed with.

    The disfunctional, corrupt and ultimately doomed EU that insists on us opening our borders and submitting to their courts as a price of doing business with them. Yes, I can see why we would want to remain in bed with them.

    All EU nationals to be guaranteed residency if they are here already.
    About time. Should have been guaranteed the day after the referendum.
    Maybe the utter pointlessness of what they have done might start to sink into the thick skulls of the Brexiteers now.
    I doubt it. :)
    Don't blame me, I voted Remain.

    As someone who voted remain, the shadow of hard brexit fills me with dread. I think it's time to accept that Brexit will happen, and do all we can to campaign for continued single market access.

    If the remainers start engaging rather than complaining then we can help start shaping our future. Over 16m of us voted to stay in. Add that to the people who voted for Brexit on grounds other than immigration are in the majority. We need to get that into political thinking more. It's time to move on, accept the new reality and ensure our voices are still heard.

    do you think that the EU should have guaranteed that all ex pat UK people should be allowed to stay in EU countries the day after the referendum?

    As no one including the very vocal on this thread had nothing to say, So we are agreed. That is a first and means the healing process has begun.

    "One thing surely everyone will agree on is that the devaluation of sterling since the Brexit vote will lead to
    1) Britains exports being cheaper for overseas buyers/consumers
    2) Britains imports being more expensive for British buyers/consumers
    These effects are happening now with 2) really starting to hurt later this year but the first benefits of Brexit will not be seen for over two years from the end of March 2017."
    There will be no Brexit dividend for Britain.

    I don't give a fig about national sovereignty. Do you think the three ugly sisters of Fox, Davis and Johnston will allow us to exercise our parliamentary sovereignty in the Commons over this deal? Or will they just impose it without a vote. What do you think Davis was saying in the Commons yesterday?

    Control of borders without neighbour co-operation is also nonsense. You brexiteers have been duped by the 'bring back control' line and the rest of us will have to pay the price of this idiotic decision! Meanwhile the pound just keeps on falling.....says a lot about confidence in the UK that does! The EU will survive and grow and we'll be pleading to go back and this time on much less favourable terms. We should have been in there fighting to solve the problems like migration, Putin's Russia etc............. not watching ineffectively from the sidelines! We are a laughing stock! We have chosen to walk away from the world's biggest market on our doorstep because of the dog whistle immigration issue.
