Re: Brexit
Anyone who thought we would walk away from the cess pit which is the, increasingly federal, EU without any collateral damage was deluded. Of course there will be problems, probably some major problems but that should not deter us from doing what we need to do - get the hell out! Junkers et al are acting like petulant children as they know they are ultimately going to be the big losers. Our economy isn't a disaster and the pound hasn't "collapsed" despite the BBC doing it's best to portray it as otherwise. Financial markets are always jittery and easily upset. Brexit will be a nasty business for us, the EU dictators will make sure of that, hoping to deter other countries from following suit. They are all bluff and bluster and we need to grow a spine and stand up to the bastards. If they do nothing to smooth the exit their companies will suffer at least as much as ours but we will have the benefit of being free to trade with whoever the hell we like, they won't. The bottom line is - this is going to hurt but it has to be done - SOON.

Re: Brexit
Name me any contractual agreement where a price has be agreed before the terms - this is so arse about face and daft as to be a complete insult - we should walk away.

Re: Brexit
The Pound has collapsed since Brexit and anyone who thinks otherwise is deluded. I have been abroad four times since the referendum and each time the ER has got worse and worse. When we went to Portugal last month the ER was parity. It has cost us hundreds of pounds. The slide will not stop as the madness continuese. We will be away a lot more next year and Brexit wil cost us thousands.
I fear most for those who will loose their jobs because of businesses fleeing and for young people, who showed more sense in the referendum, than those with blinkered entrenched views. Oh for some half decent politicians in place of the May, Borris Johnson idiots and that fossil leading Labour.

Re: Brexit
I repeat the 10% reducing to 5% at its worst can never be seen as a collapse. It is just the TV and press have to use over statement, so you follow them. A collapse would have to be at least 30%. 10% is an adjustment.
The use of the words is completely wrong even for 30% a real collapse leaves the thing broken on the ground.
