If we vote for Brexit what happens

Rinoa

Ireland have today issued a statement on Brexit preparations.

Basically they want the EU to recognise potential difficulties faced by the Irish economy after Brexit and are looking for plans to mitigate their situation i.e. they want more money from the Eu.

This can't possibly be true, since all 27 are singing from the same hymn sheet.

looks like someone is having a little bit of a meltdown....

I've only been browsing a few minutes and noticed that a few pro-EU types are the same across a few threads.
Multiple largely irrelevant and often bigoted posts being a real giveaway.

GF.... here; ISTL in the "Fish" and the "Snap Election" threads; Ted in "EU Sets Out" in DT; and I note that even Quasar is "biting".

I wonder just what is getting them all so riled?
Can it really be just because things are not going the way they want?
Such a shame, isn't it.
Somebody ought to explain that life is not always a proverbial box of chocolates - and that spitting your chocolates out is not polite.

I rather thought that my posts were on the calm side, and since this forum is open to all user to post on whatever thread they wish, I am merely exercising my prerogative as anyone else. If anything, I can see others are getting heated. You for example...

Bon appetit.

Merci.
Mais ...........

Heated?
You get that I'm heated from that?
:rotfl:
Not me; you're very obviously not reading the threads I have been - or are you just ignoring them?
I do note you have not answered what you prefer to call "EU misinformation."

As in few posts up, for example.

Why have you not answered, Q?

Now away and bait someone else.

Bonne nuit.

I think it's just a little nervousness. The game is supposed to play out the way the EU want (and are used to). When it doesn't then the volume gets raised and we get told how difficult things are and how it's their way or the highway.

Guess we'll see who's got the biggest balls in a few months.

I don't know. I'm torn between the choice of May being bloody difficult and putting a few noses out of joint, or Jezza.

The Blair / Brown governments almost bankrupted the country. The Wilson / Callaghan governments bankrupted the country and took the (then) largest loan from the IMF to try to sort the problem.
Jezza is a throwback to "old labour values" - whatever the current uncertainties, these are reasons not to vote for his party just now IMO.

Brexit may go well, or it may not. Having a government take the finances back to the brink will not improve the prospects.

A little more on 'the leak'

The Telegraph run a report suggesting it was Juncker's chief of Staff who provided the leak and who has higher links to the German Govt.

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2017/05/02/revealed-jean-claude-junckers-monster-plotting-punish-britain/

Just to show it's not the British press claiming dirty tricks the Irish Times, following questions in the Irish Parliament, ask whether it's Germany running the Brexit show or the EU 27

The Irish have been in this position before, of course, with the Anglo-Irish economic wars of the 1930s.

It'd be easy for the EU core of Germany/France/Belgium to hang them out to dry, in favour of their much cherished red lines.
