Just a pause for thought Brexiteers - because I don't think one of you has thought this through! Supposing just one of the 27 countries in the EU says 'That's it, you wanted out UK, no deals, you are on wto rules (note there still are rules inside or out) in two years. There would then be open season on companies in the UK only for EU access from every one of the 27 to get them to move. How much are you going to put up to persuade them to stay. And what kind of negotiating position would we have as supplicant to non-EU countries in that kind of situation. No doubt some Brexiteers want economic collapse and anarchy but for the rest beware of what you wish for.

When we joined the EU did we know where we were going?....you iron out the bumps and reach to your destination...nobody is saying it is going to be an easy path....but you never know it can be an easy path only if there was less scaremongering & bickering...

For the benefit of warranty, the promises made by the exiteers, were phrased in terms which no thoughtful person could believe. This country, according to the swivel eyed letter writers in The Telegraph, would be free to do whatever deals it wished with the rest of the world - as if it cannot do this now - without any kind of reciprocal commitment to replace those we entered into when we joined the EU. We quite simply could set ourselves free to dictate terms wherever we wished. We are just as free to do this now as are Germany but we perform - on almost on any metric - as amongst the most under-performing of the world except in financial services. Those who voted out - and I know of some who did it for sheer bloodymindedness and now regret it -did it in total ignorance of the facts or consequences. I am honest enough to admit I'm not qualified to know what they all are but I do know where the advocates of exiting are coming from and it is a place of deceit. There are people around who do know but they have been discarded in favour of those who unfailingly march through the polling booths to their own detriment at the behest of an entrenched elite of media bosses.

"drag you to better times"

Fact is that you have no idea where you are going.

Do you invest by spinning a coin???

[joe say] 04/11/2016 12:18

Most people who voted out are now really regretting it already.

Are they really?

The problem Portside is that this government doesn't have a policy to get out of the EU, only a gang who have mounted a coup using the gullible want that. A few politicians have fallen in behind the power of the media. They smell more power to do dubious deals for themselves. It is a mess, such a big decision as pulling out of a treaty which has delivered so much needs considered thought not mob indoctrination. Using the EU as scapegoat for free market fundamentalism which has made the winners immensely rich and trickled down absolutely nothing to those left behind is a trick by the winners - e.g. Murdoch and the Barclays. What we are witnessing here, and in the US, is the failure of Milton Friedman's mantra which effectively said greed is good.

[portside1] 04/11/2016 09:47

the fact is the country is now in a mess uncertainty is not good . it will hurt the
working class big time ,
if the gov can not carry out its policies then it must call an election

[alphorn] 04/11/2016 09:45

It does not worry anybody that the governemt's representative is said to be detached from reality? Pretty serious to me.
