A 2nd Referendum on 12:53 - Dec 2 by exiledclaseboy | Aye that’s how it’ll work. The EU hates us so much. Obviously. Dear god. And leavers wonder why they get painted as intellectually challenged xenophobes. |
Yeah they specifically hate us... No, anyone going against the EU project has to be brought into line. Rebates et al that Britain fought hard to win will be under attack, revoking Article 50 being an excellent opportunity to do so. EU would do the same against any other nation in the same situation so how that translates to your charge of xenophobia god only knows... | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

bluey, I've said this before mate but the rebates are going anyway. https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/brexit-eu-budget-rebate-gunther-o Gunther Oettinger says so. Rebates are not appropriate in a family of nations. It doesn't matter if we can withdraw A50, there will be changes to our terms of membership if we agree to them or not. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) |

That is what is putting a lot of people into panic mode. |
No it is not, it is the same Fear Mongering by Mark Carney, it hit the markets in 2016 and hit the market again now.

Why doesn’t the country have a snap vote... Do you want another referendum? Yes No If over 52% vote yes, then we go for it, if no it’s over...let the politicians decide what’s best. If we vote yes, a new referendum with 3 choices Accept deal on offer Reject deal - accept WTO rules Remain as we are Highest % wins Sorted 👠We can then move on from this as the constant uncertainty is doing more damage than anything. | ![](/images/avatars/9046.gif) |

If we have highest percentage wins out of three options chances are that we’ll end up with something that fewer than 50% of the electorate voted for. | ![](/images/avatars/8641.gif) |

OK, deriding your principles was uncalled for (and was truly, partly in jest to do with your field of work)...Mea culpa. The section of the world in which you work is not known for it's social conscience, is it! The majority of those who work in it do it to earn their companies and themselves as much cash (and kudos) as possible. What are you thoughts on the Greeks lies and deceit. Christ, wouldn't we all like to retire at 40 but who the heck is going to pay for that - do you think that the Greeks are reaping what they sowed?

I disagree. The knee jerk reaction of the markets was expected when the referendum result was in and the immediate analysis was that there would also be a recovery. This is quite different. I have seen 25 percent of my investments disappear which means that my pensions will face a similar shrink.

The predictions were immediate recession which would require an emergency budget - funnily enough, never happened. The forecasts ( or scenarios as Carney now calls them ) haven't exactly been that accurate. Every story of EU favouring companies looking to leave without actually leaving has been reported by media as fact. Companies making redundancies have had that cited as due to Brexit. Jamie Oliver blames Brexit for some of his restaurants closing whilst ignoring the inconvenient facts that a) his food is shit and b) other of his restaurants were previously close. Every example of investment into Britain has, if reported, had "despite Brexit" tagged on to it. We've seen scenarios, we've seen forecasts left right and center where the perceived outcome has been treated as fact without critical analysis of the methodology behind it. Paul Krugman's views on the BoE claims? "The Bank of England just released some very dire scenarios. But their bad-case losses from a no-deal Brexit look extremely high. I mean, 8% of GDP was the kind of estimate we used to make for countries with 150 percent effective rates of protection. I don’t understand how you can get that kind of cost without making some big ad hoc assumptions about productivity or something. And I have worried in all this about motivated reasoning on the part of people who oppose Brexit for the best of reasons. As best I can tell, the big results depend on assumed relations between trade/FDI flows and productivity. It’s really important to understand that this channel does not follow from basic trade theory and comparative advantage; it’s a black-box story. What we have are correlations between trade and investment flows and productivity that don’t really follow from standard models. Are these causal? There is surely room for skepticism. Yet that seems to be the big driver of the whole thing. So I’m worried. Again, I’m anti-Brexit, and have no doubt that it will make Britain poorer. And the BoE could be right about the magnitude. But they’ve really gone pretty far out on a limb here." Now, if Krugman can openly question the methodology and assumptions bheind the BoE forecasts ( downgraded to s cenarios by Carney ) what confidence can you have? It's not just BoE either, Treasury have been spectacularly wrong at times. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

The goalposts have definitely moved in the last 2 years we now have options...
