Thought I'd start a new thread as this is going to be a major talking point this year...have not made up my mind yet...(unlike bucksfizz)....but thinking of voting for an exit as Europe is not doing Britain any good at all it seems....

Noticed that the markets did not drop as far as expected......some blue on Monday ?....

Of course in reality it's messed up their plans for the UK . those punitive steps they were going to take against us once we voted in . We must be making a big hole in their budget now so somehow they have to find it . Remember the countries they are allowing in must need financial help and without us supplying as much as we did it puts more pressure on the others .

I was thinking that with the pound drop...exporters might flourish and European businesses would take advantage of the low pound to buy our products...or am I clutching at straws.....

Taxes in the Eurozone (not us) will rise because there will be a massive hole without our contribution.......the European agricultural budget will go down the sinkhole....

Who will be NEXIT? How Swexit, Czexit and Frexit could now follow as aftershock of Britain's political earthquake hits the continent

Dil.

The referendum will go down in "history" that Cameron leader and Right wing of the Tory Party were responsible for exiting the EU in 2016.

The referendum was initiated by Cameron as a stunt to maintain himself in his and an attempt to reunite a split Conservative party and split ideology at the expense of the “public purse”.

The proposal was at Cameron's instigation.

Of course, those who voted one way or another have the responsibility of their "own" actions. Misjudged as they may or may not be.

The costs of raw materials and imports will increase.

Gains from devaluations are temporary.

(Boost and catch up.)

I thought you needed inflation , were they worried about deflation taking a hold . Like Japan .

Fred.

Can you explain why the cost of raw materials will go up?

ok, the quid has taken a knock, but has largely regained it's position from before brexit.

It was a lot worse only a few years ago.


Doom and gloom is becoming a albatross around your neck, look on the bright side.

Wait and see.

But some were excusing the drop in the value of sterling.

Just what the ***k ıs that cartoon supposed to mean!!!!!!!!!!

I've been down that road Claret about the cartoons , your supposed to analyse it yourself you know .

I'm none too brıght.

Max.

Also, remember that for a period Britain was thought of as the sick man of Europe and why Heath (tory PM) went cap in hand to the EEC and begged for admission.

"Perhaps, De Gaulle recognised the future temporary difficulties Englan might cause."

I was reading the Brazilian papers last night and they see a great opportunity for increased trade and investment relations with the UK, particularly with respect to raw materials and agricultural products. Of course Australia and South Africa will be very interested also. Those countries that produce right hand drive cars such as Japan and India will be looking to increase trade relations, while Germany will curb the rantings of the drunk Junk. He is its appointed (or anointed?) man and there is no way it will allow him to damage its UK market. After all, as the remainiacs were saying "Its the economy stupid!"

Vince Cable is sayng that we should go back to EU and suggest they reform more and then we would stay.

926,675 signatures for a second referendum

It doesn't matter if 16m signed the petition. It is called democracy and we voted OUT.

I wonder how this will pan out?
