Re: Post-Brexit Thread
Politicians all over the west are pretty poor quality wise atm but getting out of the EU leaves us with one sub par group rather then 27 and by leaving the EU as has already been said once we kick them out they can't hop over to brussels and get their snout in that trough. My vote had zero to do with the campaigns i honestly couldn't care less what was in either sides lousy attempt at a campaign but it was based on my personal view of the EU which was formed over many years.
As to the name calling that's continuing it really is pathetic but it's being carried out by a minority from both camps not the majority as i believe the majority genuinely want the best for the UK they just differed in how that would be achieved. Things right now look bad for the UK but give it a year things won't be looking so bad and for everyone i knew that voted leave it wasn't about the short term but the long term and there are a few surprises to come the day we officially leave the EU that will help. |

Hard Brexit 'to leave Brussels coughing up £13BILLION a year to trade with Britain'
British firms would face a lower bill of just £5.2billion – adding weight behind the argument that it’s in the EU’s best interest to dish out a favourable trade deal with the UK. According to Civitas, all but five of the 27 EU states would face more tariffs on exports to the UK than British firms would pay to send their goods into the continent. http://www.express.co.uk/news/uk/724...sation-germany |
Re: Post-Brexit Thread
I think it's bordering on utter delusion if, in addition to getting all these excellent trade deals, they'll pay us £13 billion for the chance to do so.

Re: Post-Brexit Thread
Perhaps they may do what has been suggested we do - find different markets without those tariffs for their goods and services...
Here is the actual article from Civitas. http://www.civitas.org.uk/reports_ar...r-eu-uk-trade/ Quote:

Microsoft Hikes U.K. Prices of Enterprise Products Amid Brexit
"...From Jan. 1, prices of on-premises enterprise software will be hiked 13 percent, while those of cloud services will increase 22 percent, all to realign with euro-based contracts, the company said in a blog post. Consumer software or cloud products won’t be affected, Microsoft said. The slump of the pound since the Brexit vote has translated into a series of price hikes for consumers in the U.K. In the technology space, British consumers found out last month they’d pay as much as 16 percent more for the latest iPhone models compared to previous versions, a bigger inflation than for buyers in the U.S. or Germany. The pound has fallen more than 16% against the dollar since the Brexit vote on June 23 and has been struggling this month amid discussions on what the divorce will mean for Britain’s access to Europe’s single market." https://www.bloomberg.com/news/artic...ts-amid-brexit ---------- Post added at 17:55 ---------- Previous post was at 17:42 ---------- Quote:

But we haven't done Brexit yet...
And as has been pointed up numerous times, a large percentage of the FTSE 100 are making profits from overseas sales, which benefit from the weak pound. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/business/...p-in-sterling/ Quote:

Re: Post-Brexit Thread
Sadly nothing seems to have been learned from the awful referendum campaign from both sides and still it goes on and on from both sides and would it not be nice for once for bloody politicians instead of putting their selfish political own interests first putting the country first for once but alas that's probably too much to expect from politicians from all sides to do as it would probably need a miracle for that to happen sadly.
