Fellow palace fans, I haven't posted on here for years and have a question.

There has been lots of talk recently about a second referendum on Brexit, a people's vote etc.

Whether you voted remain or leave last time, have any of your changed your mind?

Say the choice was
1) Leave with no deal and the predicted fallout happens
2) Remain on the same terms as pre 23 June 2016

Would any of your vote differently to how you did the first time around?

'2) Remain on the same terms as pre 23 June 2016'.

I am wondering if that would still be the case, that the UK can still continue on current terms ?????

I think it would have to make a much bigger payment into the EU than it does now. Also, teh EU has just signed massive trade deals with the US and Japan. The UK issue is seen as an irritating admin issue now, a bit like a mosquito bite, soon disappears.

It really looks like it would be beneficial for EU to have the UK limited paid access to the single market without the veto or any say in how things are run.

Thus protecting the integrity of the single market and disposing of a perpetual pain in the arse at the same time.

Fantasy land? The EU deals with the US and Japan have been done. They are done deals. The UK hasn't agreed a single trade deal with an country at all since announcing it wants to leave the EU and even the government concedes that it will take years to agree any trade deals beyond 2019. When you have your head firmly buried in the sand as many do who voted to leave the EU and now regret that mistake but will never admit it, you start dreaming because your head is upside down and it's dark, very dark, all sorts of fantasies and dreams will appear as reality.

?

That's a risible point. We can't legally strike deals with foreign countries while we are apart of the EU.

Voting to leave the EU was the best thing.....It was a fantastic day. Your philosophy about the EU is losing all over the EU as the right gathers strength.

You will never understand......Still.....loving the fact that an EU fanboy relocated to one of the most EU skeptic countries.

I voted leave but I'm not sure that I would again as I did so in good faith that the Government were capable of negotiating our exit but now that I know we couldn't negotiate our way out of a paper bag I would probably change my vote and hope for another referendum when we had a set of stronger Government ministers

You could wait a long time, if not for eternity, for that to happen.

haha, keep your fingers in your ears and keep whistling while everyone else moves on.

Regarding where I'm currently living, the current administration is against some of the immigration policies of the EU. They have no intention of leaving the EU or the Euro, the same for Italy. Both Austria and Italy are pushing for change within the EU, which has been a process ongoing since the EU's inception. It's always been an evolving trade block and union. At least Austria and Italy have the guts to push for change unlike the UK which simply has never been a team player unless it's guaranteed to win, a bit like the spoiled brat at school who thinks he/she is aways better than everyone else but on finding out reality is different, decides to try and ruin the toys of the other kids in a fit of jealousy. Enjoy your isolation after next year but reality looks like you'll be in limbo for years with the EU picking the best pieces of any deals as it has the trade deals with the rest of the world while enjoying the €50 billion penalty plus the many other €billions from the businesses that are moving or already have moved from the UK to the Eurozone.

'Foreign countries' want the EU single market.

The UK could never offer any of the advantages of the single market.

So trade deals there are none.

After we leave especially.

Can't say that I've ever enjoyed or supported the politics of the EU but how did it ever come to this? I'm sure we just joined an customs/ economics union back in 1973?

What than H of P, given 40 years plus, of being in the customs/ economics union, could possibly be the point of leaving it?

Something better? What, there is nothing - really absolutely nothing.

No trading/economic arrangements in prospect at all, with anybody.

That's how ridiculous it really is.
