If we vote for Brexit what happens

Boris Johnson is turning the screws on May and Hammond himself. Still hankering after the PM job perhaps ?

Boris Johnson has endorsed a new cross-party campaign created by prominent pro-Brexit politicians aimed at pressuring Theresa May into fully delivering on the promise that Britain leaves the EU.
Johnson, a prominent leave campaigner who is now foreign secretary in May’s government, said the Change Britain campaign, led by the pro-Brexit Labour MP Gisela Stuart, would ensure the UK gained control over “laws, borders, money and trade” as it exited the EU.

His decision to record a message supporting Change Britain indicated the continued tensions over the issue within May’s government, where Johnson, along with other prominent pro-Brexiters Liam Fox and David Davis, is seen as pressing the case for a rapid and comprehensive exit.

"many of the promises made by the Leave side are manifestly unfulfillable,”

I seem to remember most of the 'porkies' were told by the remain side. See sig.

I've noticed over the last few weeks ago more properties coming onto the market and properties starting to sell more regularly.

Could be increased confidence or the fact the kids are back at school.

Either way, I don't see any headwinds for the next 12 months or so.

Ah, a Remainers' viewpoint - and iScotland Remainer at that, choosing your own spin; enough said.

So just to clarify a little, you missed re: the vote to leave:

"They did so by a clear majority. But there were many people who also voted for remain. So it’s absolutely vital that we work together, leavers and remainers, as we seize the opportunities that this country now has to forge a positive and exciting new relationship, not just with the European Union, but also with the rest of the world; changing Britain and making it global again. “Now, more than ever, we need to show the British people that as politicians we are listening to what they have to say.
“Brexit means Brexit and that means delivering on their instructions and restoring UK control over our laws, borders, money and trade."

Seems a clear enough reminder TO ALL that the wishes OF THE MAJORITY as well as the wishes of all voters will be listened-to.
Or would you rather that the wishes of the majority were ignored?

You're quite happy for Sturgeon to do so in Scotland.;)

However, given that Johnson has just been to Poland rolling out the red carpet for further Polish immigration, his video message urging his own leader to 'get on with it' has been somewhat surprising. The lack of real Labour opposition seems to be encouraging the Tories into a bit of in-fighting themselves.

This is about Johnson and May. He's briefing against her, and is nothing to do with remainer spin.

Please, just for once, do you think you could manage to make a post without ridiculous spin or disingenuous interpretations or - worse - simply made-up statements as the only content?
Because quite frankly your works of fiction are becoming wearisome and distracting from what are otherwise good threads.

Ah, the same Boris who lied every step of the way of the way during the campaign and then proceeded to lie to appease the other side immediately after the vote?

Boris:
"British people will still be able to go and work in the EU; to live; to travel; to study; to buy homes and to settle down,”

How can he promise any such thing? He's a weaselling politician who speaks with a forked tongue.

So totally unlike every other politician then? :whistle:

Meanwhile... Back in reality.

As a simple rule of thumb, when you hear 'leave the single market' think about the hollowing out of the UK s financial services industry and our services balance of payments surplus. When you hear 'leave the customs union' think Northern Irish customs checks. When you hear 'no negotiations' think of business panic. And when you hear 'unilateral free trade' think of the total collapse of what is left of the steel industry and a 10 per cent tariff on car exports.
