I don't believe i am.
To condense it into a nutshell....Remainers tell lies, Leavers tell the truth, The EU is rotten to the core and we're coming out :woot

There are no tariffs. Further we have free trade access to a further 50 countries via EU free trade agreements.
If we do a NO DEAL (which parliament should act to prevent) then we loose all that.

If you make your import tariffs very low or zero, other countries will flood you with cheap goods. This will wreck your home production and also other exporting countries will take retaliatory action. We're not just talking foodstuffs here. It's also not just about the duty rate. It's also about import caps, inward processing and most important of all exports.
This is why we have trade deals....

What you are saying is that LEAVERS want a NO DEAL BREXIT so you can destroy this great country of ours.
Re: Just for VNA a brexit thread - mtread - 29-12-18
Just to point out again :
1. Not all Leavers (by any means) want a No Deal Brexit
2. There isn't going to be a No Deal Brexit, no matter how much they want it, because
3. Parliament will decide what to do next

If Parliament votes down May's deal (including any changes she makes to it) the government will extend Article 50 while something is sorted out. All the signs are there. The EU has said the UK can extend without permission. Amber Rudd (May's spokeswoman) is looking to get consent for other options (ie EFTA & EEA). Mogg and Co failed to get her ousted and have spoiled it for another 12 months. All of the opposition parties (perhaps apart from the DUP) have said they won't allow a No Deal to go through. So it's Mogg and Co + the DUP versus the rest.
So there is a lot of bluff, double bluff and brinkmanship going on at the moment on all sides.
All to play for in injury time.

And to put that 35 billion into perspective..A million seconds is 11 weeks. a billion seconds is something like 32 years....

Quote: Whatever happened to "No deal is better than a bad deal"It's a bluff (and always was) to frighten wavering Tories into backing her deal.

More likely they are throwing her a lifeline. There would have been far more in her talks with the EU than we are being told.
Re: Just for VNA a brexit thread - agricola - 29-12-18
Odd isn't it. Apparently, we Leavers are a bunch of thick twats who don't understand this business. But Remainers want another referendum whereby the youngsters, who have just left school and have no experience of life/politics/economics/social justice/war/poverty/work/finance etc etc, will bring them a victory.
Shame on you, for wishing to using the gullibility of youth to overturn the wisdom of generations of Englishmen
