Yeah, because I am going to waste my life scrolling back through all this to find somthing. We knew, face it, you want Britain to burn.

So you claim you knew it but can't provide the evidence. OK Plooks, we believe you ..... not !

EDIT - and I don't want Britian to burn. I just see through the EU story that the only way we can thrive is being part of their corrupt club.To use your favourite word ..... you're delecting.

But to be fair, as you have openly said, you have no idea of how we would survive outside of the EU. I think your exact words were 'I'm not an economist, ask the experts'.

I did, and that may be one of the reasons I'm not sold on your plan?

I can't remember exactly what the question was you posed but it was very specific and sure as hell wasn't "how we would survive outside of the EU".

I'm not in a position to start a debate (think JRM for the last 2.5 years) but I believe that it was in answer to 'how long would it take us to recover economically from a no deal'

I can look it up tomorrow :thumbsup:

Ok. So, how much better will the UK do outside of the EU? Because all I am seeing right now is a load of uncertainty. How will the GDP and stabdards of living change over the next decade? How better off will the nhs be?

Even the experts can't predict those things with any accuracy for a year ahead let alone for a DECADE ! We will at least be able to spend the money we send the EU currently how we wish rather than it being passed to French farmers under CAP, Cyprus to piss up on unneeded roads schemes or for the EU to keep moving between it's two HQs.

I think you will find that the vast majority of economic experts say that we won't recover from the impact of 'no deal' within 10 years and, possibly, far longer.

But, of course, you may know better and they may be employed by project fear.

I'm outta here, the pudding menu has turned up

The one good thing about the Brexit events at the tail end of last week is that nothing else is going on in the world (apart from the tragic events in California)...I turn the radio on and its all about the big B ...I turn the box on to watch the news and its all about the same...amazing

But we get some not inconsiderable benefits for that money, to say that by not paying it we will be better off is too simplistic. Fair enough to criticise some of the expenditure, but in the blunt assessment of whether is what we pay worth it, it is irrelevant.

I love it that the Welsh leader blamed everyone apart from the turkeys who voted for Christmas!

Bloody hell. I guessed that sheep might have been enfrachised, but surely turkeys don't get a vote in Wales. Nobody believes that, do they? Well, OK, you're a leaver so..............


It's probably because of Brexit............................

If you start taking advice from a racist, sexist, homophobic climate change denier I think you know you are on the wrong side.

He's talking sense on Brexit though. That deal has got to fail. As she once said No Deal is better than a bad deal. That deal is useless. I'd rather have no deal.
Anyway who's taking g advice? I just read it. You should too.

This. Abbott was the worst PM in Australian history, and there's some pretty stiff competition for that accolade. If you agree with Abbott on any subject you're probably wrong

Staggeringly, he says that the UK can exist outside the EU and survive on WTO rules alone, like Australia. I should find it amazing that a former Australian prime minister doesn't know that Australia is a member of TWO trading blocs - ASEAN and the Cairns Group, but nothing surprises me about Abbott; he makes David Davis look like Talleyrand.
