Can I remind you that on March 30 ,with no deal, we immediately lose access to the 60 plus trade deals that we have access to because we are an EU member,we have no transition period,it will be a cliff edge....Fingers,perhaps you could tell us what we can do about that?? KudosDave

Is that the same Trump who said that we could have ‘a very powerful trade deal with the U.K.’ Actually I am finding the situation that May has put herself in,quite amusing.

Assuming May’s deal gets voted down and she decides to go for a people’s vote,what happens if Corbyn gets spiteful and votes that down as well....May could be trapped,even a GE may not be possible requiring 2/3 rds majority....that would be a real constitutional crisis,how do we get out of this...

I liked this bit.... If we were not in the European Union, however, no such deal could have been agreed. There would be little we could do to stop discriminatory policies being introduced, and London’s position as the world’s leading financial centre would be in danger. The banks may be...

The only reason why Leavers are against a peoples vote is that they know they will lose a second vote and we will Remain. Nobody likes to admit they got it wrong. KudosDave

The one thing I think we can all agree on is that May's deal was the EU's deal,the day that Davis turned up at a meeting with no papers and the EU facing had a stack,said all. We have been stitched up by the EU ,but it isnt their fault it is our fault,we entered into a divorce with a QC on the...

The EU are worried that we may become a low tax/low regulated/low paid Singaporean style tax haven that could wreak havoc with their controlled single market. Actually I should be supporting JRM and IDS,the idea of 10% corporation tax,no minimum wage,employing labour a la Amazon,no inheritance...

Suggest those who think that the backstop will never be used should Google ‘Turkey Trap’ ‘Jeremy Hunt’ It’s got nothing to do with catching turkeys for Christmas. Jeremy Hunt has pointed out that the open ended May backstop deal could lock us into negotiations for 30 years. Turkey has been...

There were!

I thought May once said that NO DEAL IS BETTER THAN A BAD DEAL and everybody says that NO DEAL will be catastrophic so what adjective is used to describe May’s deal against NO DEAL....keep it clean. We are going through time wasting motions to keep Brexiters happy,even though Brexiters as well...

To do the job properly on April 1 this is the work required... 1. Upgrade all the computers to take the latest Sage or Quickbooks software 2. Against every product (we have 11,000) the HS tariff code,the size and weight must be attached ,also the tariff percentage. 3. All invoices must be...

I am amused that the first working day after Brexit will be April 1,enough said!! Anyone who is in business knows April 1 could be a very stressful day,especially if we crash out without a deal....it only needs one jobsworth French customs officer at Calais,checking paperwork,to bring the whole...

Rob you have the right name,well actually BOB (bored on Brexit)....if your words are accurate ‘there should not be that second referendum’ is a soft version of ‘there will not be a second referendum’,perhaps she is considering that may have to be an option,albeit reluctantly.....same as...

Don’t forget the referendum was only advisory to parliament,they don’t have to accept the 2016 result. Actually May’s deal is not welcomed by either Leavers or Remainers,I was and am a Remainer but would accept if the second vote still voted leave,but that vote would be a choice between leaving...

Theresa May has today published a letter in national papers asking for the electorate to support her Brexit deal....this is the height of hyprocisy....she is reaching out to the country to support her deal but won’t give the country a chance to vote on her deal. KudosDave

I don’t know the Wisper set up but talking generally hub drive e-bikes need some speed to get to max torque,the smaller Bafang motors need about 8 mph to reach max torque....this can be difficult uphill,which is why these bikes still need gears,also the reason that the g-tech ebike is a poor...

I suppose it’s in a small way an advert for my bike range. I pay to be a trade contributor on this forum so I might as well take advantage of that. I also have a personal dislike of the lack of transparency on the internet,hiding behind anonymous ‘nom de plume/avatars’ allows all sort of...

I don’t think May’s deal is the final chapter. I am unsure whether she will get it through the house,Corbyn says he will vote against hit and the ERG,DUP seem to vote against it so the maths would suggest it’s not going to get through. She didn’t make any changes to appease Corbyn so I think the...

Sorry but they can’t. Google it. Under EU rules the withdrawal treaty is decided by a majority vote,Spain cannot veto the deal but the EU will be keen to have a unified vote. This is the problem with the Leave vote,they thought they did their homework and considered the vote with knowledge but...

Why can’t they cut taxes now? KudosDave
