Personally I'm sick and tired of the entire defeatist attitude and the willingness at any point to run the UK down and often by elevating the position of the EU. Deals are being negotiated already and thank god the people handling them don't have the online attitude and view of the UK. Yes so far our negotiations with the EU haven't been very positive but I'm starting to understand the approach and the outcome that is being prepared for. I think the best thing for some on here is to move to the EU and leave the UK in your back mirror best outcome for everyone.
Damien's made some great evidence-based points but you've not responded to any of them.

Meanwhile, the EU 27 have an interesting solution to the island of Ireland dilemma.
Quote:
The European Parliament is to call for Northern Ireland to stay in the single market and customs union in order to protect the integrity of the EU’s borders.
MEPs have concluded it is the best solution to the problem of ensuring there is no border in Ireland. The move has the support of all major political groups.

When do you reckon the UK will sign up to TTIP?
