[EU] Brexit negotiations at a standstill

[Gorsameth]

You must be talking about this beautiful Brexit...

New figures showing a boom in exports of British services abroad will cause despair among Brexit gloomsters.

Between 2016 - the year of the EU referendum - and 2022

Right so you know, not actually Brexit and before the world learned the UK was actually legit going to leave the single market.
Growth before Brexit is now retroactively counted as growth after Brexit because that is the only way they can make it sound good.

That you’re just lying yet again might be the reason you can’t think why.

Dribbles thinks that if he closes his eyes, the world vanishes.

The "lalala, I'm not listening" approach to inconvenient facts. You could also have mentioned the polling that says 86% of 18-25 year olds would vote to rejoin today. Time is not the friend of the old racist Brexit voters.

Brexit just keeps on getting better and better.

dunno why you are linking me this when the fact remains that Britian is taking EU rules (alleged bad part) without access to the single market (good part)

not to mention lol @ the express a paper brought by Lord Beaverbrook to batter the politicians of his day into pandering to his prejudices. Beaverbrook told the 1948 Royal Commission on the Press that he ran his papers “purely for propaganda” . Not much has changed, still always nice to see a story not about how evil meghan is or what the immigrants did this time to offend the white boys.

[Bakis]

No, most die hard Trump fans actually live in the US.
Dribbles doesn't even live in the UK.

So he/she's part of the Kremlin troll park then I presume.

[Candiman]

I like this line in the Express article

“You can actually have a situation where Brexit kind of boosts services trade by harming another sector more.

Where even the Express admits that while service exports might be up it's at the expense of another sectors bigger losses.

Brexit Caused a Third of UK Food Price Inflation

I mean, what else needs to be said. £7 billion added to food cost because of the added border check.

The problem is that politicians on both sides of the divide have buried their heads in the sand for the last two decades.

Investment in infrastructure has not kept pace with the demands upon it.

"They're taking our jobs"... fucking stupid statement given that a large part of the UK's productivity problem is unfilled vacancies.

Demands on infrastructure, I get. But, what's the solution? Not popular, but the answer is: higher taxes and increased distribution of wealth.

The UK has a lot of debt to pay in the form of reparations for historical C02 emissions. People want to come to the UK to live, work, seek better lives for themselves and their families. Pretending this isn't the case and doing a Braverman is not the answer for progressive, mature democracy.

Oh wait, but the UK isn't a progressive, mature democracy is it.

It's a pity that guy today in the Nissan didn't get further into #10 than he did.

We don't need higher taxes. We've got the highest taxes since the second world war. When we had to rebuild the entire country and built the NHS from scratch.

We need to tax the fuckers that currently aren't contributing. People with a stash of housing that's managed by an offshore company. Make that illegal, if you own property in this country your firm is based in this country and pays taxes in this country. Stop taxing billionaires at a 1% rate while those of us that are PAYE are paying 30%. Windfall tax on the cunts currently making a killing by overcharging us for energy.

There are plenty of ways to generate the cash we need, and we could almost certainly do it while reducing the tax burden on people on the average wage. I'll happily pay more, I can afford it, but I'm not volunteering until they've squeezed the genuinely wealthy until the pips squeak.

Oh, and get everything that should be owned by the country back into public ownership. Simple principle; if the government would have to step in to prop it up if the owners went bankrupt, then it shouldn't be in private hands. Put a permanent end to capitalism for the profits and socialism for the losses. Then get us a constitution that you can't sell national assets off; put a stop to Thatcher MK2 before it ever gets started.

Don't get me started, I could go on all night.

Increased immigration is honestly down to the success of Brexit making Britain a far more attractive proposition for immigrants now we are outside the EU. People vote with their feet, they could easily go somewhere else. It is wonderful, as a benefit of Brexit, to see a more balanced soup of immigrants from across the whole world coming here rather than prioritising those from the EU over all others. All people should be treated equally.

I did see some people a tad angry about it, but as a property owner like many looking to cash out at some point one can only celebrate this increased demand for housing caused by immigration resulting in a 50% increase in property prices since the referendum, and upward pressure on rents that can be charged, thank you Brexit for making us wealthier.

Want me to go back and link your posts stating that a Brexit "benefit" was going to be reducing immigration? You were shouting from the rooftops about how brilliant it was. Now immigration is going up massively and suddenly that's a Brexit benefit as well.

Fucking pathetic dribbles. Anything that happens you try and pretend that it shows how brilliant Brexit is. You'll contradict yourself in the process, but you don't even care. You just continue to spout your bullshit.

In the meantime, JRM has said that applying the import controls that Brexit was going to allow us to have would be an "act of economic self harm". The bonfire of EU regulations has been pushed back again, because nobody supposedly running this country has the slightest idea of how to handle doing it properly. And the improvements to animal welfare that Boris was pushing for as a Brexit benefit have been scrapped. Hell, you linked to those in a previous post and called them a benefit yourself.

You pushed Brexit as far as you could, and now it's stalled and stopped moving. The next step is to start moving back to where we were. Either the Tories lose their nerve and do so to try and avoid crushing defeat in the next election, or the next party in power will.

But at least this post proves the point; you don't give a shit about what damage Brexit does to the country, as long as you are okay. Selfish, small minded thinking that sums up Brexiteers better than I ever could.

everything good, brexit
everything bad, not brexit

Everything bad can be misquoted and misrepresented and packaged as a benefit

We need to tax the fuckers that currently aren't contributing. etc.

Yep, ofc, iDD with this.

However:

The United Kingdom ranked 23rd out of 38 OECD countries in terms of the tax-to-GDP ratio in 2021

23rd out of 38. That's why our infrastructure is crumbling...

But, when you dig into it,

Relative to the OECD average, the tax structure in the United Kingdom is characterised by:
» Higher revenues from taxes on personal income, profits & gains and property taxes.
» Equal to the OECD average from value-added taxes.
» A lower proportion of revenues from taxes on corporate income & gains; social security contributions; and goods & services taxes (excluding VAT/GST).
» No revenues from payroll taxes.

However, the cumulative effect of low tax-to-GDP and Tory incompetence / mismanagement is: can't drive anywhere without damaging your car in a pot hole; can't get an appointment with the Dr; schools are crumbling; etc.

upward pressure on rents that can be charged, thank you Brexit for making us wealthier.

Honestly, you're a pantomime villain.

He seems to be running on low power at the moment... Next time he ramps up I will try to add another!

He is probably crying in a dark room about Boris, seeing after the bad week at home has felt the need to go and visit uncle Donny in the US to talk about Ukraine ...I guess Volodymyr didn't pick up this time he needed a PR stunt!

The swing away from Brexit and towards the EU continues to gather pace:

https://www.theguardian.com/politics...u-poll-reveals

53% of people want to have closer ties with the EU. Wow, that's even higher than the massive 52% that wanted Brexit in the first place! If that isn't a true democratic mandate, I don't know what is. Only 14% want us to move even further away, which really drives home the failure that Brexit has been. It's even getting through to the hardcore Brexiteers now.

Anything to say dribbles? Do you feel the numbers that share your views shrinking by the day? Feel the walls closing in around you? The only question that remains is whether we start to move back in the current parliament, as the Tories panic about being wiped out in the next election, or if we'll have to wait until we get a new government. Either way, it won't be long. Tick, and indeed, Tock.

A biased poll by pro EU campaign group laughingly called "Best for Britain" unsurprisingly shows a little over half want closer ties to the EU. Even they dare not ask the question of their members "Do you want to rejoin the EU?"

Nothing to see there Huey and no like millions of others, far from the shackles of the EU walls closing in around us, each day that passes I celebrate being a little more freer. You should too.

Meanwhile more Brexit benefits and another vote of confidence in being ex-EU as...

You realise he's completely delusional and will only see it as fake news, The guy is quite literally in a Trump Supporter mind set and completely brainwashed.
