    What negotiation?
    The EU have only to mention WTO and the pound will plunge like a rollercoaster
    External investors and the markets have a realistic judgement of the British economy, even if you Brexiters are living in la-la land
    Hard Brexit now!

        David Davies came out with a "U-Turny" statement in the commons this morning:

        https://www.theguardian.com/politics...-politics-live

        Labour’s Wayne David asked if the government would consider “making any contribution in any shape or form for access to the single market” after Brexit.

        Davis replied:

        The major criterion here is that we get the best possible access for goods and services to the European market. And if that is included in what he’s talking about, then of course we will consider it.
        and with Boris seemingly to favour "freedom of movement" you can see where all this is going.

        I'm alright Jack

          There only were, and are, 2 real choices given the weakness of the British economy:

          1. Stay in the single market
          2. Suffer Greek-like economic pain
          Hard Brexit now!

            Am negotiating for Euro payment though (or changing contract); once Article 50 is invoked, I don't see much upside happening in the sterling exchange rate, do you?.
            Other than in the last month against the euro, and to a lesser extent, the Dollar?

            So when you have been telling us how much poorer we are in Dollar terms you actually meant how much poorer you are.

            But at least we are spending in the UK. Aren't you on in the Eurozone somewhere? So a double loss. No wonder you're peed off.

              Yes, Boris is doing a great job (For an in-bred Estonian thick ignorant Berk)

                No I'm in London. Just booked my skiing holiday - 600 pounds more expensive in real terms.
                But at least the tattooed brigade will now be priced out of foreign holidays - bliss.

                  Ahh, so you was living in a million pound house in London, then you were living in a million pound house in "Leafy" Surrey and now magically you are living in a million pound house in London again.

                  Estate agents, removals firms and the SDLT tax office officials must all be sending you Christmas cards soon..

                    Hopefully they won't notice you have Left & Right tattooed on your feet so you get the boots on the right foot.
                    Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much.

                      He could still get it wrong, even then.
