- Brexit will have soon cost the UK more than all its payments to the EU over the past 47 years put together
Utter nonsense. It's the introduction of the single market that has supercharged our economy and kept manufacturing alive in the UK. Which is why Norway and the Swiss are (de facto) inside it.
It's far from done because "IT" still hasn't been defined.expressman33 wrote: ↑Wed Jan 15 2020 1:19pmThere is a cost either way and the fact remains that Britain was paying an extremely high amount compared to other countries to stay in the EU. Its done now so people need to accept the result and get over it as they should've when it was voted for. We've lost more money with the uncertainty and still didn't get as bad as predicted.
As if you've ever paid a price for "freedom".
Remarks like that merely go to highlight that you know nothing...!parchedpeas wrote: ↑Wed Jan 15 2020 1:51pmIt's far from done because "IT" still hasn't been defined.expressman33 wrote: ↑Wed Jan 15 2020 1:19pmThere is a cost either way and the fact remains that Britain was paying an extremely high amount compared to other countries to stay in the EU.

And thanks for telling me to 'get over it'. I make three people unemployed later this month - directly Brexit related.
I'll pass on your regards.

a) It's not done. It's barely started.expressman33 wrote: ↑Wed Jan 15 2020 1:19pmIts done now so people need to accept the result and get over it as they should've when it was voted for. We've lost more money with the uncertainty and still didn't get as bad as predicted.
All the scaremongers seem to be moving their goal posts now...Chadwick wrote: ↑Wed Jan 15 2020 2:30pma) It's not done.

b) As for people not accepting the result, presumably you mean people like Boris Johnson, Priti Patel, Dominic Raab, Grant Shapps and Theresa Villiers. They all voted against Theresa May's Withdrawal Agreement. This, as you will recall, prolonged the process and ultimately brought the government down.
c) "It's not as bad as predicted" is not justification for anything.
