Brexit watch, round 2

Elegran, Theresa May did not suggest that this morning. She said that the US was the UK's biggest export market.
The only way that can be true is if she negotiates with all EU countries separately, which is what I said.

POGS, plenty of guesses at to how Brexit has been viewed. Not quite the same as details.

I thought I had produced detail. Oh well.

So did I POGS, but I suppose good news isn't what people on this thread want to hear...

I do! Keep it up POGS

Here's some more detailed guesswork.

I see your groupies are on, POGS.

When you are talkimg about growth, the countries that had fallen back and were struggling on the brink of recession suddenly get a bit of luck or their luck turns and they GROW.

Then, just catching up, their growth is much better than the EU meaning Germany Netherlands or France. Of course they have more growth. The are coming up from a lower point in the scale.

The BBC and the politicians should wait 6 months and then see what real growth looks like.

I can imagine that Brexit will do alright for business and profits but for the poor areas which gained under the EU payments and support will suffer. They will wait a long time until millions -no billions are given to Wales and Cornwall.

I got a new freezer the other day and noticed that the safety of the plugs and sockets was a EU safety regulation. Thanks for that EU!

That's odd, I was apparently stalking someone else yesterday...

Well, I'm going to write to Dyson and request that, now he has the referendum result he campaigned for he brings his workforce back to this country from Malaysia, preferably to Wales or Cornwall, to help with employment there. Which might ease the situation slightly#notholdingmybreaththough

Great post POGS .
Am on a little holiday at the moment, and the hotel owner told us today that he used to farm in Kent, but bit by bit the EU rules and regulations on farming destroyed his livelihood.He had a small farm, a mix of hops/fruit and animals, which had been in his family for generations.He said that in order to comply with the rules AND make a profit only large farms could possibly compete.He is very bitter indeed.

Brilliant idea, Tegan.
Do you have an address for him, or should we just google to do likewise?

Djen as regards 'groupies'......... that's because POGS talks a lot of sense.

What a lot of nonsense, scribbling letters to Dyson......and you know that you won't.

What's noticeable from threads such as this is that all the disappointed ad angry Remain voters seem to want detailed answers and action Right Now.

We were all warned before the referendum that it would take several years to sort out arrangements if the vote was to Leave, and it will.

It's yet another chance to moan.

Well, maybe we're actually doing something while we're moaning whereas a lot of other people are just sitting back waiting for Utopia to arrive [eventually].

What tosh!

The awful results of this stupid decision by 37% of the electorate have not kicked in yet and will not do so until if/when the guullible minority of the electorate have their way.

In the worst scenario this would happen two years after Article 50 is invoked. At best this will never happen. But even so this ridiculous ill-conceived referendum has irrevocably diminished our country's standing in the world and damaged our grandchildren's future.

Sigh!

Those are details, Varian.
Noticeable today that both Japan and China are being anti-Britain, and Obama said he'd put the EU in front of the UK in exports.

I've just sent an email; if I don't get a reply I shall put pen to paper and write. I do prefer sending a letter [which, I believe puts more pressure on the recipient to reply]but I'll try the email route first#neverunderestimatethepowerofthepen

What a pity the Remainers don't realise that it was their own decision which was stupid, which is why the Leave vote won. It would save all this gnashing of teeth and wailing.

..of course, he's a bit tied up at the moment sorting out the planning permission [or lack of it] for his multi million pound swimming pool....still,filling it in again will create a few jobs #karma

What decision was that?

Varian referred to this stupid decision by 37% of the electorate. I was giving my opinion - I think I'm still allowed to do that.
