Absolutely not. This government is incompetent and can't be trusted to do much other than try to furnish their own beds and moats.

Yes, I still think people are confusing the term Europe with European Union- and now shows it’s true colours.

It’ll be painful to leave but my take on it after genuinely researching it - not from celebrity sound bytes- is it’s just a layer of unnecessary government removed.

Now't wrong with partnerships with European countries. It is the European Union we need to be rid of...

Yes - welcome to the politics region.

There should be a second referendum on the deal and whether we should leave or not. Brexit is a total fail, the worst decision of the last 100 years at least.

im not sure which treaties you see as being so adversely stacked that will we do better on. And how that will weigh up with losing out on the freedoms of the Eu market.

It all feels like the apprentice episodes where they spend too much time negotiating a 50p discount on a small item at the expense of securing the big item.

I'm slightly hoping that Brexit will be the poisoned chalice that will damage the Tories for a long time to come.

If we are out of the EU, then renationalisation can happen.

I can't speak for them, but I'm the same - I voted remain as I'm anti EU because I'm left wing and European Federalism is something, therefore I'm opposed to.

I voted remain because I was terrified of what would happen if we let the tories get their hands on the country, unfettered by the EU.

I now think Brexit will knock the Tories back for a long time, and would allow subsequent Labour governments to renationalise, unhindered by the EU.

If you can't see why losing a vote 49-51% will cause lasting arguments, then you are a moron.

A lot of people seem to conflate the Tories with Brexit and leaving.

Seem to forget the official Tory/coalition line leading up to the referendum was to remain! Cameron, Clegg, Osbourne, May....all remainers. It was the people...the electorate who (rightly or wrongly) voted to leave.

In the 2017 election NOTH of the main parties campaigned on the promise of “carrying out the will of the people” and, therefore brexiting! Only the Lib Dems and SNP campaigned to remain. Labour and Tories BOTH increased their total vote...Lib Dems and SNP both lost significant votes and seats.

I agree that the Tiries are a total shower....I also see labour are equally confused/split and possibly even worse option.

To blame one or the other or both for Brexit is just plain dumb. Whoever was/is/will be in power the result (good or bad) is/will be the same!

You should make yourself available to the Japanese and Canadian Governments. They have spent years negotiating an FTA with the EU that is not even half as good as the single market but they believed 4-5 years negotiation for a simple FTA was worth it.

Two years ago most of us didn’t think about trade deals. Many didn’t know what one had or what made one good. Didn’t know whom we had deals with. And on what terms.

Now we’re all expected to be experts in order to make a decision of the trade off of what we will loose and what we will gain.

It’s brexit (the referendum) in a nutshell tbh.

Yes I saw that story, it was David Liddington made the comment. Prime Minister Theresa May has since rejected Liddington's comments though, and said the decision to Leave the EU will be a once in a generation decision. David Liddington can consider himself well and truly slapped down by the Prime Minister.

I don't think so an EU army will just be a poor man's NATO. For military cooperation NATO is the organisation to be a part of. I really wouldn't want our armed forces to be at the beck and call of clowns like Juncker and Tusk.

Great. So our exports to our biggest trading partner will become 3-5% more expensive to them and less competitive. And the surplus of goods that we import from the EU will be 3-5% more expensive for us to buy.

Result!

Good grief.

"Would u still vote brexit if u could and would you vote brexit if you didnt

I still would

Voted Leave last time and would do so again if there was another referendum. There won't be another referendum though, it's just delusional wishful thinking from remainers.

Did you read in the telegraph the new cabinet office minister saying we might rejoin again in 10 years?

Yes I saw that story, it was David Liddington made the comment. Prime Minister Theresa May has since rejected Liddington's comments though, and said the decision to Leave the EU will be a once in a generation decision. David Liddington can consider himself well and truly slapped down by the Prime Minister.

How long is a generation? The SNP think it's about 4 years!

It seems as though you, and the PM don't grasp parliamentary sovereignty. There is nothing to stop parliament taking us back into the EU. In fact Justine Greening was saying exactly the same earlier in the week.

Justine Greening who just got the sack as Education secretary in the cabinet reshuffle! What a joke. Her comments Smacks of sour grapes to me. "

It was reported that she was offered the DWP, but turned it down. Maybe she felt that she couldn't speak freely within the cabinet and wanted to leave to say how shit Brexit is.

"I voted Leave in the referendum.

Now I would prefer us to be in the forefront of an EU that is determined on reform and change.

The EU is changing but in completely the opposite direction to what the UK wanted. The EU has made its intentions clear to be more Federalist, more centralisation of power, with more countries joining and the beginning of an EU army.

Being a major part of an EU Army would have done wonders for our Country and Armed forces.

I don't think so an EU army will just be a poor man's NATO. For military cooperation NATO is the organisation to be a part of. I really wouldn't want our armed forces to be at the beck and call of clowns like Juncker and Tusk. "

Oh god, you're not still banging on about this phantom EU army are you? Why do you never say you are scared of NATO, VHRJTF, CJEF or JEF, but are always shitting your pants about an EU Army?

"....

With Donald Trump being an unreliable partner, the EU “Army” will provide European security irrespective of the drifting and musings of the US Commander-In-Chief. He himself has questioned NATO and so it is hardly surprising that European countries would want to make contingencies.

"Of course we will have trade deals......

If people want to trade they will. We do not need European beaurocrats to tell us we can trade...

All that will happen is a 3 to 5% duty on imports and we will do the same back

Great. So our exports to our biggest trading partner will become 3-5% more expensive to them and less competitive. And the surplus of goods that we import from the EU will be 3-5% more expensive for us to buy.

Result!

Good grief.

-Matt"

Not 3 to 5% more expensive to them as the drop in the value of the pound has already cancelled out the tariff increase. Our exports have already become much more competitive as a direct result of Brexit.

So when you say "Result!" yes it really is a great "Result!" with non of the intended sarcasm linked to your post.

Which, of course, it couldn't do without another treaty, the ratification of which needs to be unanimous so the fucking stupid myth you keep peddling about the UK being dragged into a more Federalist EU against its wishes only makes sense if you don't know a thing about the EU.

i disagree. You’ve taken two lines from the speech and read your own intentions into it. Now I’m not saying it is not his intention. But I would not say it is clear.

Tbh having reread the speech I’m struggling to see the complete opposite direction they are going. From selective free trade. To controlling foreign investment in infrastructure. To cyber controls. To fighting terrorism.

Indeed if I were to replace EU with UK and posted it here I suspect I’d have a tour of applause and land of hope and glory played !

There should be a second referendum on the deal and whether we should leave or not. Brexit is a total fail, the worst decision of the last 100 years at least.

We have already had a referendum, second, third or fourth is not needed, we are heading OUT...."

No junker and his 'wing' of the EU have pitched that idea, most national leaders arent going to say yes to that without treaties and legislation being proposed to examine.

They may as well have held a referendum on whether we wanted to ban rain in August.

It doesn't matter what they tell you you're getting nor what they tell you you've got after; It doesn't matter whether you voted leave or remain, whether you want a 3rd referendum or not, whether you want a soft, hard, or a red, white and blue BREXIT. The deal has been done and the only choice left for the UK now is either no BREXIT or fake BREXIT; that's what already agreed "regularity alignment" means. BREXITers need to wake up out of their fantasy world, accept the realities of what "regularity alignment" actually means and start working with those of us who knew from the start where this would lead, to get the only deal possible that leaves the UK with any real control over the regulations it has already agreed to be aligned with, and that's the No BREXIT option.

"Remember before the referendum on brexit, you all said it would never happen;

But is it what we were led to believe it would be?

Is it what we voted for?

Will the final final outcome be the best for the country?

I think lots of people said that they didn't want it to happen, rather than it wouldn't happen.

What do you think of the Scottish government's assessment that Brexit will cost £12bn a year to the people of Scotland?

Which comes first for you? Love of Scotland or hatred of the EU?

I don't have a hatred for the EU, just some of the people in it

Said it would never happen in the manner some on here were and still are claiming, given how its going I see no reason to doubt that.

Big fudge to quell the people..

Lol... you have 'won' the referendum, you don't have to keep lying you know.

What Macron said when asked if France would have voted to leave the EU was:

"Yes. Probably, in a similar context. But our context was very different, so I don’t want to take any bets. I would have definitely fought to win"

“But I think it is a mistake to just ask yes or no when you don’t ask people how to improve the situation and to explain how to improve it. You always take a risk when you ask in a referendum yes or no on a very complicated subject.”

I'm not sure how that reality relates to the fantasies you have invented in your head.

Well if that is what he thought then that is what he probably would have said but, as when asked he didn't actually say that, It's not unreasonable to believe that that is not what he actually thinks at all; is it?
