Quote:the bottom line is those of us who voted to leave got shafted.
if the country and the government had held their nerve and got a good deal, it would have been fine.
but you have to hand it to the remainers (including Teresa may), they played a blinder.
Make such a piss poor jo of it all that we either come out worse or have another referendum which obviously will now go the way of remain, given that we know no one in power will fight for what we actually wanted. Add in weve been humiliated by the EU, and had two years of being slated for our racism/xenophobia/stupidity etc and its a remainers victory over democracy.
and you know what? mttreadand vna are right. I was stupid. For ever believing there was a chance the powers that be would see it through properly. oh well hey.
I for one will never vote again, nor care whos in power both here and amongst our EU overlords.
Naw Ogri. You were unwittingly voting to be shafted.
The EU currently represents 25% of global GDP. And guess what it is right on our door step. Further it is one single free trading market. Currently as full members we have full unrestricted access to that market.
What BREXIT aims to do is to make it harder, more difficult and also more expensive to access that massive market.
Trade deals are about countries moving closer together in order to increase trade by making the flow of goods easier and simpler.
BREXIT is the opposite of a normal trade deal.
