Brexit Phase Two - Trade

[Brotherton Lad]

Don't go there. You'll blow his mind.

It's called killing the goose that lays the golden egg.

 

[PhotEx]

It does and it makes hundreds of millions more as a result.

Prove we won’t make £Billions more by leaving....

That's quite a kind way of telling BL that he's lying.

Respect; I aspire to be as kind as yourself.

Kind? Nah.

Still leaving

Personally I'm all for reducing immigration as long as we reduce the current state pension, and privatize the NHS.

I'm sure there's other options, AL, such as controlling immigration to exclude the ones we don't actually need.

Then there's also increasing productivity per person by encouraging business to invest in research and tech (and they will when the glut of cheap EU labour dries up). In this way, there's more real wealth - per person - than swamping the UK at a rate of a million extra migrants, every few years, and the negative social costs that come with that.

All the clever blokes say we won't. Your fantasies are amusing.

PMTM is not in favour of a hard Brexit, for that would be really stupid.

Blowing each other to smithereens is really stupid, yet the threat of mutually doing just that was enough to maintain peace in Europe. Sometimes the threat of something has far more utility that actually doing it.

Have you listened to the Select Committee hearings or are you just making stuff up?

You don't want to actually do it then?

You have a great deal of faith in Select Committees...

No they don't

Thank the Lord for all this planning
British fishermen would have to show catches to EU officials under no-deal Brexit

These things tend to cost more when you're not a member.

You also have to accept the rules imposed without having a shout on what they are.

Not a smart move, in my opinion.

So why did we get lumbered with, for instance, the working time directive, which the UK was dead set against? In terms of "rule taking" twas ever thus.

Did you read the content of the link? It concerns British vessels landing catches in EU ports...

If you swapped around UK and EU in that article it would still be as plausible

As my old dad would say "that's for me to know and you to fret about"

Anyone else here sat before a Select Committee? Not so much taking evidence as eliciting responses to support a pre-determined perspective..

 

[Auld-Yin]

It does and it makes hundreds of millions more as a result.

How much of those millions do you expect the UK to lose and what is the final sum when the club fees stop? You know, lost trade but no fees equals?

No wonder BL rates them...

 

[clambuster]

Even when it's not sustainable, you still feel entitled?

All my savings are in ISAs and not paying tax in the UK (nor in Belgium actually, due to the scheme I'm on to encourage overseas scientists to come here). So nope, you get nothing from me (actually I still pull out as I have lifetime ISAs )

Not exactly well off then?

No they don't

They do in his head.
