Correct.

A better solution is emerging in a fast-moving situation. We don’t sign Article 50 until it suits us. That gives us time to work out the alternative trade policy which the Leave bozos forgot to offer. Once we’re a bit more aware of where our boat is heading, then press the button.

The alternative is economic chaos and a much poorer…[Read more]

Correct.

Norway was held up by Leave (aka Project Lie) as a shining model of a country which was no longer in the EU! And it’s a hell of a lot better than the trade area with Albania and Ukraine asked for by Michael Gove.

Not my opiniion.

legally impossible too, apart from being very unwise indeed from the point of view of our living standards, unemployment, etc. We’re moving into enough crap as it is.

Leave the EU when it suits us, not anyone else.

It doesn’t suit us at this moment.

My feeling is that political opinion is moving this way, but the situation is…[Read more]

It doesn’t suit us at this moment.

My feeling is that political opinion is moving this way, but the situation is so fast-moving it’s difficult to know where political opinion will be day-by-day.

My view is to press that exit button now is far too reckless.

Pete, the EU is not in the giving mood to us. We had quite a privilged position (rebates, not in the eurozone, not part of Schengen – and that’s all about to go.

The EU is the biggest single economy in the world – we need a trading relationship with it, and when I say the Norway option I mean full access to the Single Market.

We’ve spent 40…[Read more]

Thanks for your kind thoughts, Ms K.

I am sorry to hear about your son’s upset, and I’m glad a family feud has been avoided.

I am getting the increasing sense that your won’s worries may be ended soon., but I don’t think either Pete or you will be as happy as me.

There is likely to be an almighty scream from Farage and the anti-immigrant…[Read more]

FREEDOM!

Funny that Laine, I voted for the same things

but voted

REMAIN..

Still, it’s our right to differ. part of our freedom.

My guess is that the majority of the vocal people in jc voted wiht you.

let’s see if the nation do too. Will be interesting.

Pete,
eu rules do stress free movement of labour. That’s why Gove and UKIP reject the Norway and Swiss solutions to the trade problem.

But rules are meant to be adapted, especially eu rules. If a country feels overwhelmed, they will take emergency action even if it is illegal under eu rules, and the eu have to accept it – take Austria with the…[Read more]

Yes, pete.

But net immigration from non-EU countries is cumulatively far bigger than than that from the EU.

Hardworking young people from the EU are likely to fit into the UK well. We have a long history of absorbing immigrants successfully, and I welcome the thriving multi-cultural society which has grown up in the UK for many decades…[Read more]

absolutely, Pete.

I think the overwhelming majority of people in jc feel that.

It has nothiing to do with the politics of Remain or Leave.

BB and SHR have turned this RIP thread into a political and abusive thread, nobody else.

Brexiteers and Remain are almost united in revulsion at the murder of a defenceless mother and hard-working MP at the hands of a right-wing assassin. That’s only political to those whose politics are similar to those of the killer; which means precious few in…[Read more]
