About like the rest of the b*ll*cks spoken from both sides then. Non of the so called experts/MPs know what the foc is going to happen one way or the other, but I do know it wont be them is badly affected
We do know to a degree. Economically the vast majority of economists are in agreement, whatever we do in terms of leaving the EU will have an economic impact on the UK, that is a negative impact.
There is a small minority of economists we believe that the harder the BREXIT the better for the UK economy. They argue, for example, a NO DEAL BREXIT will give the city of London – financial services – a substantial boost. However most of them agree that it will have a strong negative impact on manufacturing in the UK, and overall a widening of inequality. The UK will become, for ordinary people, a low wage hire and fire economy.
As I’ve said all along this is about the Tory party, and a battle between the modern pro-business faction verses the aristocracy and super rich side of the party – the ERG.
I think the most likely outcome, right now, is a very slightly amended May deal. Which is really just kicking the can down the road. So far parliament has failed to decisively rule out no deal, a Norway deal (the best BREXIT option) seems to be ruled out as is a second referendum. I can't see a majority forming for any of these.
So, my money is on May’s deal. But my heart is in, and this is probably the second most likely outcome (I think) if nothing can get a majority, then May may be forced to cancel article 50. The problem with that is the Tory party may go into meltdown, it could lead to a general election, which will, possibly be the most chaotic general election in modern UK history.
So even if article 50 is cancelled, which I would like to see, well the reality is BREXIT probably is still not going to go away.
But yeah I totally agree with you Steve, in that this will have an impact on us ordinary punters, whereas people like Jacob Rees Mogg, well with 100 million quid worth of assets to his name…….
