Two peoples' worthy experience does not represent a country of 64m people.

It's about the chance to re-train people in new roles as mechanisation takes over in factories and in delivery and transport jobs.
If someone is well off, they can buy all those things privately, send their children to public schools, pay for their university fees, etc. So the country being poorer is less of an issue. Maybe one less ski trip a year if they really have to cut back.
Most people in the UK, however hard they work, aren't in this situation. That's why the wealth of the country is important.

One wonders how we got by before the EU......and the rest of the world gets by.

Bollocks. We managed before 1972, we will again you need to let that sink in instead of wanting to remain in a corrupted pile of garbage.

Just worth a mention that majority that voted to leave were in the older age group who had had experience of life outside the EU (and inside) ~ maybe not just the two peoples experience.

I agree with Mick's parents. I was born in the 50's so know exactly what it was like.
Two referendums (referenda for the educated) and I voted leave each time!

In case you have forgotten Brexit is a very serious process as its probably the biggest event to happen to this country for nearly 50 years so one has to not take it lightly and make sure we get it right because if we don't generations to come will be picking up the debris for many many years long after we have exited the EU papa.
And no l am not using sadly or indeed in this post as you have to remember that my vocabulary is pretty limited.

tbf Papa have to agree with you there, humour is often sadly lacking on these forums, and often misinterpreted.
Anyway Brexiters now defeated

The government has suffered a second Brexit defeat in the House of Lords as peers backed, by 366 votes to 268, calls for a "meaningful" parliamentary vote on the final terms of withdrawal.

Bit of a strange vote anyway. Surely all parliamentary votes should be meaningful , otherwise they are wasting tax payers money. How can the govt. oppose a vote being meaningful?
