Maastricht. Lisbon.
It's nothing like signing the UK up to the € against the wishes of the country and you know it!

A democratically elected UK government? I thought you could do what you want if you won an election.. will of The people and all that...

Did the British public have any choice in the matter?
But if Brexit is going to be so beneficial why are some of it's main cheer leaders manoeuvring their business interests against a poor outcome?
I'm still waiting for someone to spell out some benefits.
Well if it was such a major issue, you'd think that the party would never get elected again using your own words.
Still, they're nowhere near the same and you know it.

Just prudent caution
Pending the unfolding disaster.
Every party supported it and both were significant in having closer links with Europe and are instrumental as to why we are where we now are
Every government (until very recently) has got in with a manifesto and strengthening ties with Europe and the EU not severing them.
Yeah and the point is Mart in a democracy the next government can overrun a decision if its elected.
In the anti democratic federalist superstate once a decision is made there is no going back — is there?
The next government can overturn a bad decision? Yet a catostraphic decision by largely older voters cannot be changed to benefit the young? Strange logic.
Which is my point. The political classes with snouts in the Brussels trough and ordinary man on the street unable to influence
You mean Farage and co? What about the Tory political class in the UK? The ordinary man in the street seems to be suffering from the Stockholm syndrome. Following some of the most privileged people in Britain who want to do away with regulations protecting workers and the environment. So bad that the same people being „led up the garden path“ by people like Banks, his words, blame their problems on Muslims and EU migrants.
No just any blip at the beginning caused mostly by negative per perception
I met with my financial advisor last week and we have made measures to ensure the portfolio (as much as can be certain) would not be negatively impacted by a decline in uk stocks. I don’t believe this will happen but it’s prudent caution.
So you’re not preparing your portfolio to capitalise on a boom then just protecting it against a disaster?
Which regulations are we giving up?

Neither - just short term sensible prudence. Markets react illogically sometimes for a short period. Nothing major will happen at all is my actual view.

Classic - the old have no say. What next Nazi boy - the weak, the infirm?
Another one to freeze frame to show the dispicable face of remain

If we leave the EU, will Biamou and Andreu need to leave?
How about something closer to your heart. The EU recognises under the Lisbon treaty animals as sentient beings. The Tories have just voted otherwise. Are you concerned that without the recognition of the Lisbon treaty regulations surrounding animal rights are going to take a brexit battering? Given that the government thinks that animals can’t feel pain and suffering?
Friends of the Earth, WWF and others have concerns about environmental regulations as well post brexit UK risks losing environmental protections after Brexit, say campaigners

Some might (will) say I'm a fool for voting leave but I had my reasons and would still vote to leave. The thing I would change is the idiots who have ruined the vision of the majority by their complete ineptitude for the way they've handled the whole Brexit.
Britain is (was) a proud nation. The EU is getting too big and is, in my opinion, making a mockery of the brave men and women who fought and died for our freedom. The UK was being consumed by the EU who just want to get more powerful. I for one hate(d) being dictated to by somebody in a different country. I didn't believe the hype (lies) of either the remain or leave campaigns and made my own mind up from my own personal views. There is too much scaremongering going on to which the more gullible members of society believe too easily. Yes some might come true but then again it might be the opposite - it's educated guess work - only time will tell.
By the way, I'm not racist, a Trump supporter (far from it) or an uneducated idiot. I am a successful IT manager with my own mind. I love the diversity this country has.
Britain will be great again or at least would be if the idiots in charge don't (deliberately it seems) destroy it - sounds a bit like our City and it's council
I too would still vote the same, and again and again.The last time I checked Farage had not been elected as an MP and had no say or bearing on it. He could spout as much hot air as he wanted but only to try and appear relevant. Whether you believe it or not, the vast majority of the leave vote are not hard right racists, Farage supporters, Trump endorsers or were swayed by the £350m NHS bus and would vote exactly the same way if a 2nd referendum was imposed on us. I, like many others, did it because I think it's the most beneficial thing for the long term future of our country. I may be wrong, but like 17m others I'm entitled to believe that and the protesting remainers should respect my right to believe in it.

I forgot about that, fecking psychopaths
