Are you doubting that Trump is a successful businessman?

If I were homeless I wouldn't vote UKIP or Tory. 'My country' hasn't got it's claws in the UK. The U.K. Is responsible for it's austerity cuts and it's housing policy. Are you seriously asking me if Farage's buddy is good for the world? If so, you must have been on something last night. You...

So it's all the immigrants' fault and nothing to do with austerity cuts or free market forces? Lucky we have a right wing government to deal with these problems then. Now looks like we will have a successful businessman to help the poor as well. Advice to Theresa: keep your hands over your...

It doesn't necessarily mean leaving the single market. That is one option of several.

They had little knowledge and they still don't know how this will pan out.

Yes - difference being lies being based on facts knowingly ignored or denied, and exagerated opinions which were proved wrong. Long term in, but with reform. No, I am not allowed to vote in the UK. Would have voted remain. Lived outside the UK for over 15 years.

That was a lie based on facts which they knew. Many remain lies were opinions which were not known facts. There is a difference between having a hopelessly wrong opinion and downright lying.

The vote to leave was not just we want to get out of the single market. People have said they don't like immigration, being ruled from Brussels, being ruled by Merkel, want to teach the politicians a lessen and so on.... Now you are saying they just wanted to leave the single market. Many don't...

I have not changed my mind. I think Brexit was the wrong decision. People voted on promises and lies, not knowing the full impact of their vote. They still don't - no-one does yet. I think that we should keep as much as we can, with a view to rejoining at some later date when the EU has evolved...

I used the word suspect, as there are still discussions going on amongst leavers. As I said, if that is so - all leavers voted to leave the single market, knowing full well what that means - and leavers are in the majority as claimed, put it to parliament and they will surely vote it through...

I don't like Cameron, Osborne, Johnson and Farage and think they are all bullshitters. Having said that, if you are right that everyone is agreed that we are leaving the single market, then why not have parliament pass an act allowing the government to leave the single market? I think there are...

Oh really. Then what is the problem? Why on earth are people discusssing it. Let us throw it open to a debate and then a free vote in parliament. Why even bother appealing the High Court decision if we are all agreed? Why invoke Royal Preogative? I suspect though, that not all Brexiters thought...

Take a year, any year....... I am talking about before and after Brexit as this is part of the subject of the thread. People are saying the euro is finished, but funnily enough it is getting stronger against the pound. I am well aware that they are not fixed together. I have both. They are...

I think you mean me and I look forward to your next post on this subject.... ;-)

You have to do a separate calculation to get the figure for what portion the relatively low Welsh population pays into the EU via the U.K., and what development funds Wales gets out of the EU directly. Plaid Cymru reckon they get more out than they pay in.

Nor did I. Wales had a development agency funded by the EU and some areas of Wales qualify for EU funds. Wales has it's own devolved parliament although they are part of the UK. I have no idea why you now think that Wales is independent.

When I have a cash flow shortfall at certain times of the year, my main supplier grants me credit - bails me out. It is in his and my interest. Ireland and Britain need each other because of the high proportion of trade with one another. A bailout was necessary for both sides. Interdependence on...

I am not forgetting Wales, but there will be no EU land border between England and Wales. Wales voted for Brexit although it will cost them a lot financially as they get more out than they put in. Which post? I am now confused as one post said you were out of this...

The remedy for Ireland is soft Brexit or no Brexit- but that doesn't fit the English Brexiters' viewpoint. The other remedy if the first part doesn't happen, is start negotiations for the reunionification of Ireland- this time as an independent country.

I remember the Greek and Italian currencies always being weak and regularly collapsing. That they these countries are on wobble again is not really unusual. I have no idea what will happen with them. I am more concerned with ROI and Northern Ireland as these affect us directly. I have family...
