Everyone who went to university is a leftie! Jesus! Is that like everyone who voted Brexit is a racist?!

Becuase of current supply chains and on going contracts which will be massively disrupted and contribute to the loss of GDP which has been mentioned. Make more of our own stuff? Great idea, would love to see it. You need investment to move away from the low skilled to high skilled manufacturing...

10,000 lorries pass through Dover every day. Over 90% of them are from the EU. They take 2 minutes average to process. Non EU trucks take 20 minutes average to process. The UK road haulers association estimate that just an additional 2 minutes per EU truck will lead to 17 mile tail back, that's...

Of course they are. But it won't happen overnight and everyone will take a hit us most of all.

Who knows for sure. I hope not.

I'm not sure that relates to what we've been discussing but I'm prepared to be proven wrong. I can't see anything that states a transition period unless agreed within our withdrawal agreement.

But is that because we don't claim back money we are entitled to? And if so I don't think the reason is weird, it's the oldest tactic In the capitalist book. Take something state owned, refund it, make it not fit for purpose, privatise it and sell it off.

So it was, I was responding to point 1. As for the NHS we have reciprocal agreements in place. I wouldn't know how many UK citizens take advantage of that arrangement, I know I have in the past in Portugal, and I don't see that arrangement ending as a good thing. There are a lot of non EU...

What are you talking about hospitals for, we were on about a specific point regarding tariffs? You are taking a very over simplified view of the tariff situation. With trade deals you can control what you import under the terms of those deals. Under WTO we lose a certain amount of control. So...

You can't put tariffs on one WTO member without putting them on all of them, you are governed by your schedules (One for goods one for services). So if we do it to the EU we do it to everyone. Seen as we actually need to import stuff it wouldn't be wise to introduce punitive tariffs which could...

That made me laugh

We'll be under WTO rules if there's no deal. You should perhaps look up how that works.

They pledged a lot of things. They pledged to cut crime but it's gone through the . May breaks a promise every time she speaks.

One of the promises was an extra 350 million public spend a week even though we send the EU 250 million. Where is the other 100 million coming from? If they are to deliver on their promises we need to know!

You got of lightly mate!

She's survived! Will stand down before next GE. So unless she walks she'll be seeing us through Brexit.

I don't think she'll go but who can predict anything with any certainty at the moment.

Don't worry, you'll still be able to see someone getting fired

How many rights do we take for granted at work that were earned through workers being organised in unions and industrial action?

Fairly sure the tax avoidance/dodging laws come in around the same time we leave the EU. Coincidence I'm sure.
