Needless to say my knowledge of UK/Euro politics is limited as I left UK 40 years ago but as I see it, the future is dependent on how your economy will benefit by having the future in your own hands.
Preparing for this to happen should be well advanced, with trade deals already on the table that must be known now.
Have you as the population that must make it work been told what they are?
Its a harsh world out there.

It is certainly, and you would have expected the UK to know that and have everything in place.

But you would be wrong..........

Quite so. Presumably you choose your Doctor, Dentist, Financial Advisor and Solicitor based upon 'the cut of their jib'.

I do little else.

Another Suez debacle.

The first totally our fault finally killed of the empire.

The second totally our fault killed off any pretence that we are an important power.

The cabinet, parliament, all the frenzy of Whitehall, anything about Brexit, simply are not of any interest to anyone that matters in the World.

Who would have thought leaving the EU would make the UK a vassal state.

I would, but then I thought about it, leavers never think of anything at all.

In both wars about 40 percent of our forces came from what is now called the commonwealth but was then called the empire or something like that......they were volunteers or already paid troops.....just to counter the narrative that the British empire was always regarded as evil by those within it.

I think it was the Suez Crisis that marked the end....though losing India was obviously major. It was the right thing to do of course if handled badly.

When you say 'Our fault' i'm assuming your referring to the lazy f***ers who didnt get off their arse to vote and are just moaning about it?

Or, alternatively, he may be talking about the 1.4m people that were marginally too young to vote two years ago but could now. They simply should have got older quicker.

Well the useless cabinet put party before country and have backed the Maybot. I have written to both my MP and the PM not that it will do any good.

I will now have to rely on a coalition of the dammed to stop this getting through parliament.

She will regret it though as the voters have long memories when it comes to elections.

Update

Michael Barnier has just give his reaction to the deal

Or the countless people who were just to old or dead...they could have voted too.

You can say that anytime a vote is required.

Good point. But slightly less skin in the game don’t you think? Especially the dead ones.

The DUP won't support her on this. Nor will at least 75 Tories. Depending on how Labour vote (and they can scent blood now), May is toast.

Then Chris's point is invalid

He said although he voted in in 1975, what it has become isn't what he felt he voted for

Can't have it both ways

What are his solutions then?

Reading through some of the details this deal seems as sensible as it was going to get in a lot of areas.
