If you voted Leave....... 11:18 - Jul 9 with 24555 views | westwalesed | …….and there was a 2nd Referendum, as the "Peoples Vote" brigade (oh the irony) want to have, how would you vote? Hypothetically if the question was: a) Accept the Current Deal (assuming it doesn't get watered down further) or b) Leave the EU with No Deal in place. I'm appealing to people here, don't let this be hijacked, no insults and petty points. Just a statement of how you voted originally would vote now, and why? So to kick off: I voted Leave. I would vote to leave without a deal. I would do so because I believe that the only way of the UK getting the deal it wants is to negotiate from a position of full Sovereign Independence. | |

If you voted Leave....... on 12:25 - Jul 12 by Shaky | The thing is all countries face strategic problems. All countries. What they typically try to do is to plan sensibly, build in contingencies and mitigate risks as far as possible. Britain appears alone in buying into a 100 unknown speculative fantasy. Or perhaps currently 30% speculative given all the elements that have already been exposed as a sham. |
Yes a sham like The Bank of England’s Brexit forecasts. https://www.google.co.uk/amp/s/amp.theguardian.com/business/2017/jan/05/chief-ec | | | |

If you voted Leave....... on 12:13 - Jul 12 by Nookiejack | In the Guardian today Germany and Russia gas links: Trump is not only one to ask questions https://www.google.co.uk/amp/s/amp.theguardian.com/us-news/2018/jul/11/germany-a “Donald Trump may have used typically emotive — if premeditated — language from the outset at the Nato summit in Brussels to lambast Germany for its willingness to build a gas pipeline, but the US president’s view that this will make Europe particularly dependent on Russian gas is widely shared by European politicians, thinktanks and energy specialists, including some in Berlin.” |
Yes. We know that. But that’s not the point i was making. It’s pointless posting anything nookie if you don’t respond to the post but instead repeat your previous point which is not relevant. Again. Trump is concerned that Europe will take Russian gas not US coal / oil / gas. The problem of energy dependence is a real one, but Europe being dependent on the US is Trump’s aim. | | | |

If you voted Leave....... on 12:26 - Jul 12 by Nookiejack | The Eurozone is truly at a tipping point - take current Italian situation - then don’t also forget that the issues of the Greek debt still haven’t been sorted out. German creditors essentially to take a haircut on the debts Greece can simply not pay back. If we run £80bn trade deficit with the EU - that means we create aggregate demand in Europe - that has a much greater multipler affect than the initial £80billion. If I buy a good off a shopkeeper, the shopkeeper then has income to buy bread from a baker, the baker then has income to buy meat from a butcher and so on. So it is not negligible and you only need a small economic shock in the Eurozone at the moment to bring it all down. |
You are trying to repolish the same turd the Brexiters peddled before the referendum. Get out quick and avoid the rush before the EU collapses. You have the gall to criticise the Bank of England's complex peer reviews economic forecasts, when your own wild-eyed prophesies have been shown to be absolutely worthless. | |

If you voted Leave....... on 11:47 - Jul 12 by Nookiejack | The P&L calculation is likely to end up being better - if we are allowed to negotiate our own trade deals with growing parts of the world - rather than the sclerotic EU. Your doom and gloom end of the world scenario will not happen - if a sensible Canada Plus deal is negotiated. The Eurozone is likely to break up though - given its current perilous state - if it takes an additional £80bn aggregate demand hit. |
Question how can this happen..how much of what we currently sell to the EU is saleable elsewhere? FO example THe wings from AIrbus go to Airbus specifically the faciltiy exists for them.....so if they do decide to withdraw that value of sales is lost....never to be replaced! Components for the Mini that great British icon now owned by Germany come to the UK from Germany then the Mini is exported.....Assembly of the Minin could be moved to the EU...along with the export sales to US,China,et al and so it continues this talk of trade deals with non EU countries has flaws as the UK has very little UK owned manufactures of finished products.....lots of component makers but they are in exisiting supply chains....PLeasde tell me what goods the UK have to offer that we currently sell only yto the EU that these other countries will clamour for? The EU relies on the free borders for lots of the exisitng trade to work... | |

We have an £80 billion trade surplus with the Eu, so could you explain where the Eu will be able to make up the that £80 billion short-fall ? It doesn’t matter which way you try and paint it - £80 billion short - fall would never be made up. | | | |

Read my post! There is a lot of trade of components both ways lot of components arre shipped to the UK for fitting to things like the Mini....so assembly of the Mini moves to the EU.....the sales fr the Mini to US,CHina,India et al goes to the EU...! | |

I replied to 3 posts in 1 minute; look it up.

How can you say that with a straight face? You do not put this country's interests first yourself. A so called ally imposes tariffs on us that put British jobs at risk, including Welsh steelworkers, and you start a thread on here congratulating him on it. A hostile foreign state attacks British citizens with chemical weapons on our streets, leading to the death of an innocent bystander and you invent laughable conspiracy theories rather than condemn them for it. I don't get this new British nationalism where people celebrate foreign states f*cking us over and murdering our citizens. | | | |

David Davis’ plan was for a Canada Plus Plus Plus deal. https://www.google.co.uk/amp/s/www.bbc.com/news/amp/uk-politics-42298971 The political elite in Westminster have blocked Brexit all the way. Too much vested interest. | | | |
