    Brexit, for once some facts.

    It appears we keep going round in circles....May today said again that she is not going for a hard Brexit,so one assumes by that she is intending that we are staying in the single market so one assumes she has given up trying to control immigration,so what is her intention....no wonder Nichola...

    She was booed. She had lived here for 23 years,married to a Brit,but had always felt welcome until Brexit,you seem to be happy with that? I don't employ any EE workers but I am told by my plumber that they are a problem because they work well,for low cost,fast and don't complain,he wants rid of...

    Pleased to hear that,my son is flying out of Gdansk at the moment,taking stag weekends from the UK and moving Poles back n forth to the UK/Poland, but the way the Polish lady was treated on QT from Hartlepool would suggest that is not always the case. The Polish guy kicked to death in...

    Ok,boring subject but it identifies the negotiation problems ahead of us... re.....Simple pressure vessels,air compressors. 5 years ago there were 7 different standards for these machines in Europe,we had our own standard in the UK under the kite mark Some EU countries would accept some...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Thank goodness we never joined the Euro. I agree much of what you say but I am of the opinion that any deal we achieve is worse than the one we have already. Margaret Thatcher got us a good deal,our budget contribution,per capita,is the lowest of any EU country. I suppose I am angry about the...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    The markets have already made up their mind that May is not capable of putting a good deal between the UK and the EU. I have to say that I agree with them. We don't have the time to wait,don't forget that we hadn't really exited the banking crisis and our economy was fragile before the vote. But...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I have been in business for 44 years,through recessions and fuel crisis (remember the 70's) . I am at the coalface of business,I import from 130 companies in Asia and sell to every EU country,so I will see the downside perhaps 6 months ahead of many others. What is happening at the moment is the...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Do you honestly think that May has some wonderful deal up her sleeve,that is going to satisfy the Scots,N.I,Wales,Gibraltar,the banks,UK businesses,the EU,the Walloons and the Leavers. From my viewpoint at the moment Brexit is a disaster,perhaps when massive redundancies start occuring then we...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    If you read May's replies to statements in the house,she is still saying that we can continue in the single market and also control of free movement of people,but she knows that the EU will not give her that. Her answers to parliament today were just so much waffle...quote... Addressing the...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I think there are very few who now thinks that Brexit is a good idea,including Theresa May,Boris and Davis....Fox is thick so doesn't count....but they dont know how to go forwards or backwards on Brexit. There are some Leavers who probably only voted to rebel against the establishment,they had...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    The way I see it the only sensible end to Brexit that is in 'everyones interest' is to forget the whole stupid idea. The threat of reducing corporation tax to 10% as spite against the EU, is clutching at straws by the government,I am sure that even May wouldn't stoop that low,Boris not so sure...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Those who voted Leave often quote that they have 'won' but what have they won? If you won the lottery you would expect a prize but I just cannot see any prize....perhaps Leavers would explain what is the prize??? KudosDave

    Don't you just love all the new words around Brexit.... Wrexit Bremain. Nicola Sturgeon now wants flexi-Brexit....she wants a unique deal for each of the devolved countries.....We have a big enough job getting one deal through the EU,can you imagine trying to get an individual deal for...

    It appears the banks are starting to make plans to leave London,the smaller banks by Christmas ,the bigger ones in early 2017. I didn't think they would react this early,I thought they would wait until the form of Brexit is more obvious. This will be a disaster for our country,it will destroy...
