It's the same sh!twitted magical thinking that posits that Brexit freedoms are the answer to the problems caused by Brexit. | |

Nah, it's because we just didn't Brexit 'properly'. So actually it's all those pesky remainers' fault. Definitely not that Brexit was always going to be a catastrophe... | | | |

The saddest thing is that Brexit didn't necessarily have to be a catastrophe. Had the exit, once voted for*, been planned for and conducted in an orderly fashion - during the three and a half years the process took - then a lot of problems could have been at least mitigated. Instead we had meaningless waffle ("Brexit means Brexit"), half-baked plans voted down on ideology, flirting with No Deal, posturing and a refusal to compromise. Turned a difficult situation into a sh1tshow. Now they're reduced to blaming "traitors" and "lack of zeal", the standard empty rhetoric of incompetent, failed revolutionaries throughout history, devoid of real answers. * Which I didn't. | |

Probably do the usual UK thing, picking and choosing which bits we want to align ourselves with, rather than simply going all-in. | |

Thanks Liz on 09:38 - Jan 31 with 3884 views | EdwardStone | How that whey-faced loon was ever given the keys to No. 10 defies all comprehension. Clearly she was utterly unsuitable for the job, everyone with an iota of commonsense could see that. But at the end of an long drawn out contest, she was what the Tory Party foisted on to us. Apparently she is much in demand on the US speakers circuit, where people pay a fortune to lap up the inanities that fall from her lips. As I sit at home worried about rising cost of absolutely everything, I wonder if she ever experiences just a scintilla of self-awareness that sooooo much of this sh1tshow is her responsibility | | | | Login to get fewer ads

I know right? It's almost like they're deliberately denying the evidence that Brexit has been a huge success. | |

Did you take the time to read the article? Any thoughts on it past ad-hominem attacks on the source? Any thoughts on our economy shrinking whilst the Russian economy is growing under heavy sanctions? SB | |

I saw one comment earlier which referred to the mania for tax cuts as a 'cargo cult' which seems about right. | |

Did you watch Newsnight last night? There was an interesting debate on Brexit. I think the main issue has been the lack of new trade deals agreed. Tories are guilty for that. Once we do our trade deals with various other countries then things should be better. Sadly the tories have been too busy infighting and done sod all about where Britain goes next after Brexit. | |

The article doesn't mention brexit once so I can only assume you haven't bothered to read it before replying. I didn't see Newsnight last night so I can't comment on the segment but brexit has been a disaster. Why would we get good trade deals given our bargaining power had greatly deceased being outside a large block? It was never realistic, it was a Tory lie from the start. Still waiting on that 350m a week for the NHS as well. SB | |

No, but the usual knee jerk reaction is to blame it all on Brexit isn't it? As evidenced on this thread. Brexit has given us new oppportunities to forge our own deals with various countries around the world. The failure has not been in leaving the EU but in being slow capitalising on the opportunities it has given us. Of course, we are never going to agree. The naysayers will just trot out the old "We must rejoin the EU sob sob, and be told what to do by Brussels again" line. | |

Have you considered that rather than being slow to capitalise that the opportunities don't actually exist? We were never told what to do by Brussels, these arguments were tired years ago. If anything we had the best deal of anyone in the EU with our rebate and the ability to use and control our own currency. SB | |

Please explain why you find that statement funny? We weren't allowed to do our own trade deals as part of the EU trading bloc. Now we are allowed. Do you need it explaining further? I will go fetch some apples and oranges if so. | |
