Do they have a good understanding of British business? The CBI say 40% of their members have reduced investment as a result of Brexit.

All 3 bodies are calling for the UK to stay in the single market until a final Brexit deal is in place. Do you agree with them, or think you know more about the British economy than they do?

What did the CBI say would happen straight after the referendum if leave won. And of course we should remain in the single market until a final Brexit deal is reached to help both UK and EU businesses. Yawn

Their risk is substantially smaller than ours is per capita and we are the ones who triggered article 50 and decided to leave, so in the end if we want to commit economic suicide, what can they do to stop us?

Theirs? Ours? Aren't we all Europeans? Or are you showing your racist side agaim? We are all together on this and an agreement will be reached. You won't even notice the difference until later when our children are better educated and wealthier

"Oh and since when did the TUC know how to run a business?"

The TUC have a very poor track record when it comes to running business, most of the bigwigs there it seems would prefer their members to be permanently on strike rather than working.

As for the CBI, another joke of an organisation who wanted Britain to join the doomed Euro in the early 00's (what a complete and utter balls up that would have been if we had listened to the CBI back then). Going back a bit further in time the CBI were hopelessly wrong on the ERM and the Gold standard too.

So the EU has influence over our education system and once unfettered, the dim and the daft will suddenly become brain surgeons? What a load of tosh....

Britain stopped using the gold standard in 1931.....30+ years before the CBI was created

No s on education.

A question mark at the end of the first sentence, unless you meant it as a statement.

A capital B and only one r in Boris.

'Had' before better, or replace better with should.

'Could you' between please and enlighten, or drop the question mark.

Given that the Tories have consistently pursued policies that make me poorer than my parents, I'm sure you can appreciate this just looks like another way off fucking me over

Are you still trotting out this debunked line?

Cameron said he'd trigger Article 50 the day after the referendum which would have been so chaotic that there would have been an economic downturn. Imagine if the UK only had until this December to agree a deal with the EU and replace 115+ trade deals.

If you dont do something then how can it have any effect?

So you're calling him a liar on both counts?

Although, to be honest wiry you, he obviously did lie about triggering Article 50, because he didn't trigger it.
