Really? How’s that working out for us? Easiest trade deal in history no doubt.

You didn’t answer the question. What percentage of a percentage of a percentage of a percentage am I supposed to be looking at? A percentage of the 4% of EU’s trade into the U.K.? Who’s percentage? Germany’s? Then you keep going on about a specific industry so another percentage. 1 in 5 cars...

Because the U.K. only makes up 4% of EU trade. They’re supposed to ignore the 96% to favour the 4%? Is that what you’re saying? That’s what it sounds like.

Isn’t because it’s the EU way or nothing the major reason on many issues the argument for leave? Why are we going to exert more influence when we’re not in the club anymore?

You’re still talking about a percentage of a percentage. In fact if you’re going to talk about the German car industry in isolation you’re talking about a percentage of a percentage of a percentage. What are we down to now? Point something of a percent. Why are the other 26 nations going to vote...

You assume that they’re ONLY playing with peoples jobs. Have you ever considered that they are playing hard ball because they believe maintaining the single market will protect more jobs than they will be “playing” with? Doors swing both ways.

Again you’re talking about percentages of a percentage. In fact if you’re going to isolate one industry in one country you’re talking about a percentage of a percentage of a percentage. I never said it wouldn’t hurt but you don’t have to be a mathematician to understand that loosing a percentage...

If you need to ask the last question then the situation really is beyond you. You’re basically dismissing the leave argument on trade and you don’t understand that. I’m going to give you the best free advice again. Probably best you sit this one out. You use the trade deficit in a context like...

When are you going to pull your head out of your arse? The 27 are united in protecting the single market. It’s at the front of their thoughts. The only reason you feel they want to punish us is because you have no grasp on what is actually happened and you buy the empty rhetoric of brexit...

At the end of the day the EU has a united front (unlike our government). There’s no deviation between the 27. Junker clearly isn’t pulling the strings, regardless of who he’s appointed to what job the real issue is there is 27 countries all with a veto who don’t approve our governments brexit...

It’s all faux outrage again. The leave campaign spent most it’s time saying that the EU is a protectionist organisation (ironically one of the few truths they told) and this is why we must leave. Now we’re leaving and the EU is acting to protect itself it’s all shock, horror and anger about the...

It’s OK. Rees Mogg has pointed out that Australian wine is going to go down by 30% (believe that when I see it. Maybe at the border but that doesn’t guarantee it will be passed onto the consumer) so it’s going to be cheaper to drown our sorrows.

Can’t be right. White terrorists aren’t terrorists they’re mentally ill.

Just watching the news and chequers is dead in the water. The unsolvable riddle continues. Who’d have thought Danny Dyer would be correct.

Australia is also in talks with the EU on a free trade agreement. They’ve also said any deal with us is likely to be similar so I’m not sure why we need to leave the EU to get a deal with Australia. Although to be fair you are correct in saying that they have voiced an appetite to do a deal with...

Which ones?

I didn’t mean in the literal sense (although you may want to point that out to Grendull). I mean in the sense that no one can say no one has done it before so no one can predict what WTO will mean for the U.K. with regards to Europe. Lots of people trade with the EU on WTO terms. There’s a...

You still haven’t answered the question. Which country?

Which countries have left the EU? It’s a simple question.

So overseas territories then. Like I said.
