Brexit: Article 50 Has Been Triggered !

But you do tend to only put up the negative side Andrew and ignore the positive so you can hardly be surprised that you attract the odd accusation.

I've posted positive news in the past but a poll of people is neither good news nor bad news, it's a poll but people still feel that's negative.
My posts represent the situation at the moment. There is currently a story in The Standard at the moment blaming future train price hikes on Brexit. That's accurate of course but we all know that inflation has come from the Pound's post-Brexit vote devaluation so as it does not add to our learnings I've not posted it. If I wanted to make a point I would have done.

except the links are mirroring your opinion over and over every day ,it must be hard work trawling the bowels of the media to find this negative repetitive remoaner drivel ,but no hard feelings i know it's all the losing side have left after the country voted out ,your just going through the stages of the grieving process i'm sure you'll work your way through it and if being a negative nelly helps then go for it no leave voter cares

As I've explained, the articles I've posted represent developments in the ongoing Brexit saga. They don't represent my opinions and like your good self, I don't have the time or crayons to state this all the time.
In fact, quite how reporting that the guy who came up with the bus slogan is having second thoughts reflects my opinion when I'm not having second thoughts is particularly intriguing. Maybe I AM having second thoughts but keeping it quiet!

Brexit has become the easy goto excuse for increasing prices in many areas and it's all driven by nothing because nothing has actually happened yet and won't for nearly two years but the amount of people in this country happy to downplay the UK has surprised me. I never realised how many people were so scared of change that any change sends them into near panic, what's not a surprise is the number of scumbags cashing in on it those lowlifes are a constant it seems. I can just about believe that the future will be bright for the UK out of the EU and unless it drastically changes there will not be an EU in ten years time. But as is always the case the biggest enemies to any country are those within it's border's undermining that country and we have no shortage.

The drop in the value of the pound unquestionably drives up the relative cost of imports. If a product costs $100 and the pound has dropped 15% against the dollar then it's going to cost 15% more to buy it.

Anyway the EU has agreed a trade deal with Japan: http://www.politico.eu/article/eu-an...ade-agreement/

Taken 4 years and likely one or two more. Big deal seems to be EU access to food markets and a drop in tariffs on Japanese cars. But it's a reminder that there is no such thing as a single 'trade deal', it's a collection of regulations, laws and agreements bundled together.

I bet the trade deal with Japan doesn't include the free movement of people .

No but then I've never claimed a trade deal is analogous to the single market because the former is significantly more restrictive.

is there a big market for radio active produce ?

Well, at least it'll be cooked.

We (well the French and the Chinese) are building a nuclear power plant.
