Apparently some leavers didn't like facts, and now some remainers don't like facts. Scottish nationalists don't like facts either.
Is there anyone left in this country who likes facts?
depends upon the facts0 -

You do realise you're not kidding anyone don't you?
Despite your claims to having an impartial opinion and no "skin in the game" as it were... its perfectly obvious from the tone of all your posts that you're deeply concerned about any potential fall in property prices or rise in I.R's
You are reacting the same as all HPCers because I don't agree with you I must have some ulterior motive. I own my house outright and am not intend to sell so have no motive. You are doing what Crashy and the others do looking for things to cause prices to fall some of which don't exist or if they do exist not to the degree you think. Just because you have no savings doesn't mean you are heavily indebted. If you must know I think it would be better if prices hadn't increased as much as they have but that won't make it happen.0 -

I don't think 17m people voted Leave to end up with exactly what we have now.
It's not just about immigration though amirite? What about all that pretend stuff about democratically elected politicians and rage inducing EU made laws?This is a system account and does not represent a real person. To contact the Forum Team email forumteam@moneysavingexpert.com0 -

Under £250,000. For a two bed house. The nice ones at the lower end of this still seem to be selling quite quickly when they come on the market.
I certainly haven't noticed that I can afford anything now that I couldn't afford before.0 -

If we want access to the single market the EU will extract a price. It wasn't worth paying pre-brexit, it isn't worth paying post-brexit.If I don't reply to your post,
you're probably on my ignore list.0 -

To be fair any price is going to be too high for some.
Pragmatism will rule. I really don't see why we can't do a quick and dirty deal with the EU. Free movement is their red line - just concede to it.
With that deal in the bag we can wait to see just how sunny the post Brexit uplands really are. If it turns out there's a queue of countries who were just waiting for the UK to leave the EU before ramping up trade we can negotiate a better deal at a later date.0 -
The EU will want too much in exchange for single market access. I reckon Fox let the cat out of the bag with his comments yesterday.
WTO with the EU and free trade deals with rest of the world is the most likely scenario.
WTO with the EU, the option which would cause the most damage to the economy, is the least likely outcome, not the most likely.0 -

How about the price that China / the US / India would extract for a trade agreement which gives us access to their economies equivalent to what we have with the EU. Is that worth paying in your book? Or do you just expect them to give us that for nothing?0 -

Without knowing te price you cannot possibly know,Few people are capable of expressing with equanimity opinions which differ from the prejudices of their social environment. Most people are incapable of forming such opinions.0
