            I personally would like ECJ on my side.
There is safety in numbers. With regard to lots of things. Sad that it has come to this in my personal opinion.
But the UK has this thing going on that they will always be better on their own. No Norway, no Switzerland, no.... they are useless and behoven to the EU.
Hubris at its best. An island nation and no thought as to the potential repercussions. But anyway.0 -

Instead since the vote there's been further fracturing and division across Europe. Which is in essence contrary to the whole concept of the EU. After several centuries of wars.
UK is a pimple on the hide of an elephant.
Where is the fracture of the EU that you mention, have you got any links or what.?0 - 
            For those claiming racism has nothing to do with leaving the eu, how do you explain the ludicrous inaccurate anti-muslim claims from leave.eu?

            Did I read here that one reason a Brexiter put forward for voting Brexit was he HOPED the Government would prioritise non EU workers.
Well yet another hope dashed to earth and ground in the dust.

Downing Street would not deny that ministers are considering a plan for EU citizens to leapfrog workers from elsewhere in sectors where skills are in short supply, as a concession to offer in trade negotiations with the EU.
But it drew bitter condemnation from leaders of the £4.3 billion curry industry who were lured into backing Vote Leave with promises that Brexit would make it easier to bring in top chefs from south Asia.
Enam Ali, founder of the British Curry Awards, said:;On many occasions we recall Boris Johnson and others say it was very important that we could bring in chefs from outside the EU because the market needed it. But now it seems as if nobody is entertaining the idea.;
Mitu Chowdhury, organising secretary of the Bangladesh Caterers Association, said: ;We attended every single campaign meeting with Boris Johnson, Priti Patel and Michael Gove and they said that the British curry industry would be a first priority. We think we have been let down.;
Mr Chowdhury said granting preference to EU workers would be a disaster as curry houses could be pushed to the back of the queue for visas.

I remember the likes of Priti Patel luring the Asian community into voting Leave, promising more relaxed migration rules for workers from the Indian subcontinent post-brexit. All in the name of 'saving the Great British Curry'. :rotfl:
Another day, another demographic betrayed by Leave lies.
What a shame.
                        Don't blame me, I voted Remain.0 - 
            To be Fair, any trade deal with the Indian subcontinent will likely involve some relaxed migration rules or quota.0

Disturbing stuff. Why are leave.eu printing inflammatory, inaccurate anti-Muslim material nearly two years after their leave campaign ended?0 -

They had to be careful with that one as a fair few Brexit voters thought they were voting for stopping immigration from Asia.'Just think for a moment what a prospect that is.

            All the trade deals which these other countries are apparently queuing up to do with us have substantial issues
- 27 countries of the EU - nothing agreed and nothing in the pipeline, relationship rapidly going sour - at very least we'll be paying as much for a deal as we do to be in the EU
 - Australia - Some form of trade deal but only if we agree to take their hormone treated beef, which we are currently protected from by the EU
 - Japan - Initially promising but now has stated that they will prioritise a deal with the EU before any UK specific agreement
 - USA - Where to start, we'll be forced to take hormone treated beef, GMO foods, and agree to a new UK specific TTIP which includes selling off chunks of the NHS to American healthcare before they will even begin to discuss terms
 - India - A return to the Post Study Work visa with some settlement for Indians (I personally have no problem with this but can't imagine it going down well in the Tory heartlands.

"No siree, we're not racist at all. Never in a million years!"
All these allegations linking racism with the Leave campaign are just
a figment of the imagination of some bitter remoaners, don't you know?
                        Don't blame me, I voted Remain.0
