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....

who would you nominate from the labour party as being a person of high principles and moral standing, who would actually lay his party political dogma to one side?

clearly you wouldn't nominate anyone from the tory party, so i'm not sure from where you would get your x-party alliance

The only mistake over Brexit is not getting out as quickly as possible - just get out and get on with it. No need for discussion - one party walks and gets on with their lives with new partners - just like any other divorcee if one party has the sense to walk and just say good bye - no hard feelings. Buck the trend and make a new friend.

even when there are children?
and who pays the maintenance etc?

After 40 years of marriage all kids will have long flown the nest and the why should the British pay any maintenance? Let them and all the hangers on support themselves. Get a grip and just leave them out to hang and dry. Not our responsibility. Just like Trump has had the balls to tell the EU countries to pay their way when it comes to defense. They are all a bunch of leaches.

Edging closer to exit date. Get feeling it wont happen as most MPs just don't want it to go ahead.

Suddenly realised we are going to leave have you Fred ?

A cross party whatever of a few MPs to deny the democratic will of the people , no thanks Fred.

Both main parties had Brexit as part of their manifesto at the last election , Libs had remain and got nowhere.

They need the 39 billion off us and a deal will be reached and then it'll be up to Parltament to either vote it through or let us leave with no vote.

Mrs May can't call a snap GE because it would trigger a leadership challenge.

Maybe if you and people like you had bothered to go out and vote Fred then Brexit may never have happened.

How appropriate Fred 😀

Don't tell me Stan , you didn't know what you were voting for at the last General Election so we should re run that too before we leave.

Stick to football , at least you know ..... on second thoughts forget that too :-)

Dil.

What exactly did you hope for, when you voted for "Brexit" at the time of the referendum?

Fred and Stan, ask yourselves:

Have the Channel Island suffered through not being fully signed up to the EU - do they have any problems with shipping goods either way?

Do the boarder checks work?
Are there any delays?
Do the Financial Service sector in the Islands not thrive because they are not fully signed up to the EU?

Free trade , end of freedom of movement and no direct rule from Brussels.

What were you hoping for by not voting ?

.

And what have you got?

And what do you expect to get?

.

seemingly we should expect dementia inspired posts in triplicate :-)

I am surprised you noticed.

Ask the carer to sedate you again.

i did, but i have to wait another 5 hours ..... such is the plight of NHS :-)

I know what Dil means.

LONDON (Reuters) - Britain’s Prime Minister Theresa May and the European Union are stage managing a Brexit deal that will doom the United Kingdom to the status of a colony, former British Foreign Secretary Boris Johnson said on Tuesday.

“No one is fooled by this theatre. Delay after staged managed delay,” Johnson wrote on Twitter. “A deal will be reached and it will mean surrender by the UK.

“We will be doomed to remain in the customs union and under Brussels’ regulatory control. People did not vote for colony status,” he said. “The future can be bright if only we change course now.”
