If a remainer said "I suspect" that after Brexit UK growth will decline they would have been told that was project fear, but when you say "I suspect" the rebate will go its true. Double standards methinks?
Nope. It's just obvious.
The EU is comprised of 28 competing states.
It is obvious that individual states will maximise the discomfort of a state which remains in a weakened manner. That's politics.
I'm surprised you can't see it. More a case of blinkers methinks.
Btw, I made no comment on post-Brexit growth. It will be hard to carve out a new future post-Brexit, but our young might manage to find places here to live, which is a bonus.0 -
"What deal should the UK have with the EU going forward?" With a single transferable vote answer of:
WTO
Mays deal with backstop
Full EU membership.
Covers all the bases?
You can't offer May's deal if Parliament won't back it.
It will just widen the division between the voters and MPs.
By all means, put the May deal to Parliament first.0 -
We don't know why we voted to leave, though the most common reason seems to be immigration.
...
No. Mass migration which has put pressure on local services already devastated by years of cuts. It doesn't really matter where the numbers come from.
There has been no let up in pressure since the 2016 vote. The voters are clearly fed up.
Corbyn doesn't care. It's probably quite cozy in London.0 -

The solution to that is to reverse the cuts.
Not to starve the UK of the vital labour force that the economy so desperately requires after we failed to breed enough of our own young people for the last 50 years.“The great enemy of the truth is very often not the lie – deliberate, contrived, and dishonest – but the myth, persistent, persuasive, and unrealistic.
Belief in myths allows the comfort of opinion without the discomfort of thought.”

We have been dealing with remainer tantrums for the last two and a half years.
We've seen more brexiteers tantrums than remainer. You won, get over it already!0 -

What you have seen is people unhappy with the losers trying to manufacture a way to remain, and people unhappy with governments not listening. All to common in Europe at the moment, and people are fed up with it.

Or as LEAVER Michael Gove said in May 2016
"It should be win-win for us and it will be if we vote to leave and we can maintain free trade, stop sending money and also have control of our borders"THE_Terry_Urr wrote: »He said "if ... we can", NOT "we will". Please try to understand the difference.
No he said If we vote to leave ........we .........can maintain free trade etc
It is you that does not understand. Maybe English is your second language?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 -

Actually you can if Parliament decides it should be an option in a referendum which was the context for the comment.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
