    He doesn't give a toss about the rest of you, that much is clear. If he's even British. My money is on Russian troll.

    Sounds just like the Trumpists over here. The cultural heritage cannot be denied.

    He went full trump a few weeks ago, he's called for women to be left in the kitchen, for war if EU doesn't bow to the UK and basically just now said the EU must do the impossible and put the hard border between mainland europe and Ireland. He's generally the average hardcore brexiteer from east of england since that's how they are here.

    not only that, but also, tell me what the more likely scenario is.

    • Countries in the world will run to the rescue and offer the UK an incredible favorable trade deals to help them recover.
    • Countries in the world will smell fresh blood and attempt to take advantage of the UK in a weaken state to penetrate its market.

    No deal is the sole luxury of: super-rich right-wingers, racist pensioners on triple-locked pensions, and the very poor. Yes, this is more or less the 52% who voted Leave.
    I do ok so in a word, yes it will have little economic impact on me and even if it did what price do you put on freedom above a life of ball and chain servitude to EU unelected masters?

    How will you be personally worse off? Or did you miss the £100bn brexit dividend giveaway by our Phil a few days ago?

    https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/art...it-Budget.html

    Sadly nothing in it for Gin drinkers i fear...

    The minority views of BJ, Farage, Rees-Mogg, Carswell, Davis, etc. and all those other slathering, rabid fucktards are not those of the sane majority.
    I don't prefer a no deal above all else but still strong and stably believe no deal is better than a bad deal. The devil is in the detail which we won't know for sure until tomorrow, it looks as though we are being offered a bad deal though which, if not the cabinet, the parliament will throw out, likely along with Theresa May with it.

    General election anyone? No didn't think so, Tick tock after all.

    I'm not sure calling the next crowned Tory pm amongst that lot "rabid" is a good thing, time to unite and get behind our probable Tory leader so we can get a proper brexit?

    I will fight, with every breath in my body, a no deal.
    I fear you might be wasting your breath Nigel, but hey you are a musical chap I think? Thought about learning the Trombone? Put that breath to some use!

    Serious question for you Nigel are you one of those rare Lib Dems? Do you know what remain champion in chief Vince said just a couple of hours ago?

    May will fail to get Brexit deal through parliament, Lib Dem leader says

    but the kicker is this, as he went on to say...“The problem is it has to come to parliament" I mean does he not believe in democracy? Too influenced by the EU? You heard it here first folks Lib dems and their supporters don't believe in democracy or parliament, thank heavens for Brexiteers who do...

    What's unreasonable about any of that? South West of England actually, bit of a brexit stronghold here, you couldn't get further from the EU mainland in England and that dreadful channel tunnel if you tried.

    Uhm, I actually doubt countries in the World will stand in line at all because with a No Deal Brexit what is it the UK has to offer? They don't have a favourable geographical position in the world to trade with, they don't have anything to export.

    Won't be any meds left if no true deal is agreed. (Looks like everyone is saying the deal agreed is either too far or not far enough.)

    South West has pretty much abandoned Brexit idea and I used a source you like the daily mail.

    Also let's see what's unreasonable of forcing Ireland out of EU customs union and single market.

    1) It's illegal under WTO. The EU can not put such a border within itself.
    2) It's dumb.
    3) Ireland do not want it.

    As for what's unreasonable about war. A) Sensible people don't want others to go off and die. B) UK would lose badly.

    Do you know how often I have, on bended knee, offered up thanks to the engineering Gods of the Chunnel?

    I hate fucking boats, always have done.

    The Chunnel is and will always be an absolute fucking godsend.

    Long may it link us and the Continent.

    Thank you, and good night.

    Crikey Dribbs, did you even read the article? No mention whatsoever of a "Brexit dividend," instead they're funding it by taxing Amazon and Facebook whilst driving a bigger deficit.

    It does say the spending splurge relies on us getting a Brexit deal, so in your ideal situation it would be scrapped.

    They will be hungry, lacking medicine, and have a NHS to dismantle.

    So, commentaries say that Britain caved on almost all fronts. A bit predictable, just like this prediction: Parliament will sack the "breakthrough", because the UK wouldn't be the UK if it didn't find a way to mess politics up here, too.

    Still heading for a no-deal, Dribbles is probably wanking off to it as we speak. This is not a solution. DUP will most likely be the party that breaks it.

    Don't think it's likely that they will wave this through. There is too much division.

    I mean in a binary vote between No Deal and whatever form of BINO Barnier handed to May to sign May should force Labour's hand imo. Everyone who will vote for No Deal will have to OWN that vote.
    Well, you could be right. This is really hard to predict without actually understanding British politics. But from what I hear, it seems this could probably end up a coin toss.

    With a no deal, the UK has no trade agreements, none, zero. They would need to implement all the rules and regulations and get agreements with other countries to accept them, the businesses that are in anyway tied to imports or exports would simply stop because they would need to reestablish trade routes first. The financial service sector would equally needed to be reconfirmed again by other countries for legal reasons.

    That is no basis for trade, that is basis for exploit. Again, i doubt any country will stand in line because the UK has nothing to offer. Companies, sure they will try to get as much money out of the UK as possible.

    is may actually going to have to convince people 'a bad deal is better than no deal'

    this is going to be mint.

    We are going to spend a decade working out how to be worse off than we are now.

    Absolute mutants who still support brexit.
