It's unfortunately in their genes to try and grab territory without feeling ashamed. But as we've seen on previous occasions they fail to acquire anything permanently. | |

B*llocks. If it was held now the % of leavers would rise.
I too can make a statement of fact, which I believe but is totally unsupported by any evidence.
Simple fact is, we had the vote & Leave won. Remoaners just need to accept & get on with life. [Post edited 14 Oct 2016 11:38]

In a single post you've proven all the things i hate about this debate. Childish nicknames, petulant and angry responses and a need to crush conversation and debate around the solution. | | | |

Debate & conversation on this subject are a complete waste of time & breath until we are actually OUT & some quarters have passed. Then we will know the SHORT term impact but it will take several years to judge the LONG term impact.
I'm sure there will be multiple global events meantime that have equal or greater influence on our economy than Brexit. I'm just happy we will be a totally sovereign nation again in due course, whatever happens! | |

You might think that but surely ALL debate shouldn't be shut down by using flippant and stupid statements? | | | |

Agree that debate and conversation are a waste of time and breath.
The "totally sovereign nation" will be comprised of England and Wales.
Old divisions will reopen in Ireland.
"Multiple global events" will most probably be another catastrophic world war.
Oh well, at least it's Friday. | | | |

I fell you are misguided if you think % of leavers would rise
many leave voters admitted to regretting it in the days after the vote, and that was before the pound plunged
Forthcoming price rises in petrol (which have already started) and food would further reduce the % | | | |

I caught a snippet of an interview on sky news this morning about the rapid increase in British exports since the vote and that British businesses are having more enquiries for their products than they have in the past couple of decades, that was a direct consequence of the leave vote.
Yet the chap speaking for the failed remain campaign dismissed it out of hand and Said it was solely down to the weak pound.
So the situation is bad if you want it to be or encouraging if you want it to be.
Personally anything that increases productivity and exports has got to be good for the future. [Post edited 14 Oct 2016 13:04]

Personally i think if you re-ran the vote now it'd still be leave but an even smaller majority than the one before (which was hardly a significant mandate).
I just wish we'd tried to negotiate a more sensible solution rather than a full exit, then had the full exit referendum as a last resort. | | | |

I would say we walked out due to the poor service and vile management. And it's nice to be able to order what you fancy and not be given something you either don't like or don't want. | |

Just think of the deals we'll be able to sign with Russia for cheap gas and oil

When petrol was £1.40 a litre, was that nothing to do with the EU? | | | |
| What's the latest on Brexit then ? on 15:09 - Oct 14 with 895 views | St_Guido |
1) I've no idea, but neither do you.
2) The £ was considerably overvalued for some time pre-referendum, hindering our export industries, so some weakness now is welcome to help redress our huge trade imbalance.
3) Oil is $50 vs $100 not so long ago, so in the greater scheme of things a near term rise in petrol prices is not a big deal.
4) I'm sure we'll be able to source food & other goods competitively from non-EU nations eager to do business with us once we finally Brexit
As ever there are mulitple drivers of commodity/FX/Market prices/values out there, so blaming everything on Brexit is naiive & I don't think paying a little more for my petrol in exchange for regaining our sovereignty is a bad deal. | |

Emily Thornberry ( a devout remainer) did the Leave cause a great service last night on Question Time - she was appallingly smug and condescending about those who voted to leave and was heartily booed - something of a rarity for the programme.
Just like fat Diane she does more harm than good every time she opens her trap. Never mind though, the Tories have got the equally repugnant Anna Soubrey... | |

People are still snivelling about this bollocks like inadequate crying petrified drips?
Just shut the fook up and get on with it. Otherwise you are basically shrivelled pecker weevils like James Corden and saint22. | |

Yup, some people blame everything on brexit and then accuse brexit supporters of being the fools. It gets a bit sickening to be honest. Pump prices are rising in part due to crude values rising. That is the fault of Brexit also? | |

Good time to redress the trade deficit that has seen us become far to dependent on imports I'd say pal. | |

The clue is in your own statement of 'as well'. In part, as i said, the oil price rise has contributed to pump price rises. And as another poster said, when the prices were 1.40 did you blame the EU for that? You need to get a much more balanced view of life mate. | |

The biggest impact we have seen so far is the value of the pound and we are starting to see an increase in prices. Many would argue that the £ was over valued even before brexit.
We have seen the Pound go low against the euro before, this is not new. A bigger issue would be if we try to protect the £ and raise interest rates. The BoE tries to keep inflation at around 2%, if the pound pushes prices up too fast, we could see interest rates rise.
Many countries try to force down exchange rates - we have done it without trying too hard !
I am hoping that things will start to settle down in the new year, when the sabre rattling on both sides stops (i.e. UK suggesting a hard brexit and Euro insisting on free movement in return for access to single market). The truth is, we need each other.
On a plus note. I have just returned from Spain playing golf and still got a pint (500 ml - not 570 !) for £.2.20 and alcohol is cheaper than therapy ! | | | |

Everybody on here seems to be pointlessly bitching at each other about the details of Brexit (good/bad?). Xenophobia is a natural phenomenom exacerbated by different cultures/skin colours etc making it more obvious to a recipient that strangers are about in your territory. If the EU had sorted out the problems of the migrants at source (ie made their host countries treat them better) and have made it a 30 - 50 year goal to integrate the one ones that had to migrate instead of foisting hundreds of thousands onto recipient countries withing a few short years, there wouldn't have been a problem and no Brexit. | |
