You would have expected leave to roll over if remain had won.

IF we were to rejoin they would take us for every penny, and all new accession treaties include an agreement to join the euro. Do you really want to destroy the UK economy that much, and I know you will say we are destroying it by leaving, that has yet to come to pass, and if the economy suffers it will be short term pain for long term gain. If we were to rejoin we would lose everything. I for one will never vote for the country to cease existing.

And that is what they want, they want a federal superstate, and that is what we would have to agree to if we were to rejoin.

Why when Farage stated this?

Nigel Farage said back in May that 52-48 win for the Remain side in the EU referendum would be “unfinished business”.

Thanks for that. I find it fascinating how May is being reported on the continent.

Being really honest, if May had been leading the EU negotiations which Cameron had before the Brexit vote, I think we might have had a different outcome.

Cameron was probably easier to read, and seemed more style over substance.

May comes across as difficult and at times secretive, and she doesn't seem to mind being seen this way.

More damage done that Brexiteers must atone for.

How many more times will you guys ask this question?

Remain had a vast advantage, the entire Establishment, world leaders, Economists, the Govt of the day all batted for Remain.

In this context Leave winning was a myrical, an effective landslide.

I posted just following Macron's win that the EU was not yet free of the threat of populism, saying a snap election in Austria was possible.

Well it is going ahead, election day in Austria being October 15th.
Given how very close the far right Freedom Party's candidate was to being elected President in December there is a real chance that the far right could form a coalition government in Austria.

The FPOe, led by social media-savvy Heinz-Christian Strache, 47, is running neck-and-neck with the SPOe on around 30 percent in opinion polls.

Austria is set to be the next battleground in the fight between mainstream European politicians and far-right populists.

No, I am not wishing the collapse of the EU.
Nor am I wishing the EU harm.
Just pointing out that the existing problems have not just gone away as so many in this thread seem to think.

No-one has posted this yet despite it being spoken of before in this thread, so here goes: the Telegraph (& others) are reporting that Theresa May has "indicated" that the EU should in fact reimburse the UK:

Brussels must pay its own Brexit bill of billions of pounds for Britain's share of the European Investment Bank and other joint projects, Theresa May has indicated. The Prime Minister says in an interview with The Sunday Telegraph that “money paid in the past” by the UK must be taken into account in the final divorce bill.

The comment is the first time the Prime Minister has indicated publicly she wants to keep a share of the European Investment Bank. Government sources said the UK’s share of the bank has been estimated at 16 per cent - which equals to around €10bn.

Or perhaps simpler just to call it quits.

Just one small point?




The EU don't do "easy".

Imagine a government coalition of the Tories, UKIP, Labour and the SNP. Then multiply it up to the scale of the EU. Surprising really that they ever agree on anything. Too many different interests.
