"Red, white and blue brexit with a sprinkling of soft and hard brexit and access to the single market but not access to the single mark, for good measure. And a topping of patriotic marshmallows and continental cream to appease both the 52% and 48%." I don't think she can do that,the division is too wide . | |||

Not if she gets a giant Brexit mug, I'm sure we can have layers of brexit in our brexit beverage with our brexit breakfast. | |||

"Those that under-estimate Mrs May do so at their peril. She is one smart cookie." Im sure she is, but I dont think she has the vision to redefine britain as it needs to be. I'll kind of think a lot less of her if she wont atleast show she will try to fight the EU on access to the single market but without the free movement of labour. It might sound daft, but its worth a shot. And if the leave, leaders were right, it would be in the EU's interest to try and give us access to the single market as we want it. | |||

"Why wasn't this important speech made in Parliament? " There is that.... A few quick thoughts Why does parliament get a vote on the final deal but the public doesn't? Different transitions lengths for different sectors is an interesting concept but that's going to cause issues The uk still want access and wanting to pay for some access to some agencies is interesting but I don't know if Europe is going to want that The implied threat to slash corporate tax rates if they don't get want isn't going to help matters I think if you worked in financial or pharmaceutical I would be worried | |||

"I've been sceptical of Theresa May from her first day as PM. But I thought her speech was excellent. It was clear, concise, and to the point. Everybody must now be a lot clearer as to what we want to get from Brexit, without giving away our negotiating position. Now let's all stop bitching about Brexit and get behind the country to make this a success." | |||

"As usual, she actually said nothing. There wasn't a plan ( she kept saying it was a plan), it was a ( mostly unachievable) wish list. It set out her objectives. What more were you expecting?" I was expecting what I got; Which was nothing except some lala land wish list. Those were not objectives. It was a list she was given to read out by her masters. But she told us it was going to be a plan; it wasn't. Not even close, it was stuff she had already said. But then that's her style ; say nothing. | |||

" That isn't correct; The UK has already played the card the other way round, by starting by saying it wouldn't even consider the rights of EU citizens until she got the assurance first from the EU; The EU has said it will wait to see what the UK offers first, and that there won't be negotiations before article 50. Though I know that the French and German governments, specifically, would accept that, and the EU has already stated quite clearly that it would support the rights of British citizens , if the UK reciprocated, the U.K. Has refused to state whether it would or not. The boot isn't on the UK's foot. | |||

" she has tried to but the EU refused to discuss it. " No... she could kill it by saying the following.... "The uk will honour the rights of any eu citizens already living in the U.K. To remain as long as they wish" That kills it as a negotiation tool!!! Rather than just saying it will be sorted in the talks You want to be the bigger person... that is how you do it... for example the European Parliament has already said this to U.K. People working in Brussels | |||

It was not being used as a bargaining counter in the other negotiations. It was a clear, "EU migrants here can live here as long as UK emigrants can live in the EU." It really could not have been stated any clearer. | |||

"Hang on it was said before about the rights of EU citizens who are currently here that the uk oils not see it as a problem for them to stay as long as it was the same for uk citizens who reside in the EU. But it has to be a 2 way street surely ?" Yes; and the UK has deliberately used EU citizens ( and its own citizens in the EU as bargaining cards; They have never said ( not even today) that they will guarantee; they have said they " would like to guarantee..... if...." do they are using hostages. The EU has already said it has no issue with UK citizens; it's even considering offering EU citizenship the Brits post BREXIT; but that the UK must make the first move; after all; it's the UK that's decided to leave the EU; so the ball is in the UK's court for everything. Plus ( if you care to remember) the EU has quite rightly said it won't ( and can't) do any negotiating until at least Article 50 has been declared. | |||

"Read the transcript. Sounds like a great speech. However, I found two things strange. 1. It looks like she took all remainers and brexiters concerns and put it in 12 points. 2. I haven't learnt anything new. Although she's pinpointed certain areas she hasn't really defined anything. Is it achievable? She says it's phased but what if a new government is formed. This becomes useless. I am no better today than I was yesterday. My two cents." Then you didn't listen. For many months, people have been calling on her to set out the government's plans. You know, like to remain in the single market or not? She did. | |||

"She didnt say what would happen to the brits living abroad, they could need permits. She did. She said that those from the EU will live here and those from here abroad will live there. No strings. As simple as that.I see. I missed that and that is good." . She can promise that she'll try for that but she can't promise the EU will agree to that?... | |||

"It was incredibly ambiguous.I learnt fuck all from that. " Lol, gotta laugh at Remainers making daft posts like this. We learnt we are definitely leaving the single market so we can stop the free movement of people and control our borders and immigration. We are going to stop payment of large EU contribution fees, but maybe continue with small payments for EU schemes we want to remain involved in like Erasmus and Horizon 20. We are going to leave the European Court of justice to take back control of our laws. We will most likely leave the customs union so we can do our own trade deals around the world. Basically everything I wanted from Brexit and voted Leave for, Teresa May has indicated she will deliver on. Very happy with the stance Teresa May is taking and if she keeps it up I'll be voting for her at the next general election. | |||

The EU isn't dragging its heels; in fact the EU is far better prepared for BREXIT, with experts and committees, than UK.. But since the UK hasn't invoked Art 50; the EU doesn't actually know, officially, that you are leaving. They are light years ahead of you and the clowns May, Johnson, and the various other comedians. For instance French MPs know more about UK parliamentary procedures than your own elected clowns ." I'd look up the EU's process and procedures on transparency in negotiations if I were you; and then comment on how well they know their own rules. | |||

" Teresa May made it clear that will be her opening negotiating position. " thank you centaur!!!! at bloody last someone said what SHE said!!! so lets take what the european commission have said about British people who work for the EU.... see if you can see the difference in the language used...... “you are ‘Union officials.’ You work for Europe. You left your national ‘hats’ at the door when you joined this institution and that door is not closing on you now.” “we will support and help you in this difficult process. Our staff regulations will be read and applied in a European spirit.” | |||

"She didnt say what would happen to the brits living abroad, they could need permits. She did. She said that those from the EU will live here and those from here abroad will live there. No strings. As simple as that.I see. I missed that and that is good. She said that she was willing to agree to that before any negotiations even started. Not a bargaining chip. You allow UK citizens to live abroad. We allow EU citizens to live here. Clear as day. one problem.... well... actually two problems... 1) the campaign group "the three million" (represent those EU citizens who are living here) who are desperately trying to get May and the UK government to say what you are alledging she said, have said she still hasn't said that..... 2) Expat Citizens Rights in EU (ECREU). their spokesperson who represent british expats, they said she didn't say it either.....and that means in effect she isn't helping those overseas where the uk already in the most part gets billed by theses countries for healthcare for example, the uk is in "reciprocal agreement" mode... the uk doesn't have to look at it like that.... like i said... may could have may 3 million people who are worried, and could have made there lives easier... she dropped the ball on this one.... You obviously missed what she said. It was simple. No bargaining. EU folk stay here. UK folk stay there. It really was straightforward. Did she negotiate with the other countries as it sounds like she made it up on her own? Teresa May made it clear that will be her opening negotiating position. It's upto the EU now to agree to it. Just heard on the news though that the EU is saying they won't negotiate or agree to anything until article 50 is triggered.

Considering that I deal with the subject on a daily basis, and deal with politicians and civil servants of various EU countries daily; I know exactly what they know and what they don't know; UK politicians are pitiful and embarrassing in their lack of knowledge of not only Europe, but the rest of the world, too | |||

"London need all the luck it can get cos leading banks are relocating staff to eu, such companys as goldman sachs." HSBC has already put shadowed offices in Frankfurt and Paris; Problem for Brit banks is that they need to get European / international banking licences; HSBC already has them. | |||

That is right and as well it was the single market that kept them here. | |||

"London need all the luck it can get cos leading banks are relocating staff to eu, such companys as goldman sachs. HSBC has already put shadowed offices in Frankfurt and Paris; Problem for Brit banks is that they need to get European / international banking licences; HSBC already has them." HSBC has already said they will keep their international headquarters in the UK. The HSBC chief executive Stuart Gulliver said during his speech at the World Economic Forum in Davos that London was "still the best place" for its main base. He added that HSBC was in "no rush" to move any operations from the city. But he warned that "activities covered specifically by European financial regulation will need to move". Mr Gulliver said this would only amount to a small sum of 1,000 HSBC staff moving over to France. With job creation in the UK currently at record levels there is no need for any concern at all. Those jobs can soon be replaced. Lloyds bank being partly owned by the UK taxpayer also won't be going anywhere and will certainly stay in London. | |||

"The speech was predictable flag waving bollocks and the people getting all excited are just as predictable. Here is a quick and factual summary. The ZuK is leaving the EU, not the other way around. The EU and its 27 Member States are under no obligation - legally, ethically or morally to do anything other than say goodbye. The onus 100% is on the UK Brexit team to come up with something. No blame at all can be levelled at the EU should they unilaterally decide to just carry on if the UK can't come up with a reasonable exit package. The EU are not forcing the U.K. out, this is the UK walking away." That is true but I think Brexit will cause the other 27 members as many problems and hurdles that the UK will face. | |||

"1-2000 people re locating out of around 360000 people who work in the financial sector of London !!!!!" Paris/Frankfurt may well end up as the Financial centres of the EU ( and good luck with that) but London will always be the Financial Capital of Europe. | |||

" So many organisations in the past have been shouting "we might, "we may", "we will" relocate due to brexit, will be nice to see HSBC take there loyal staff to France or where they wish to set up, and all the puppy dog staff will follow suit thinking their position in the company really matters, upping house, upping roots and kissing ass Just wish all those who threaten to leave just simply fuck off now and close the door behind them (a one way door with no return) | |||
