    Success to me would be no single market, no customs union, no FOM and an agreed flat levy of say 5% each way.

    Face saved all round, whilst still keeping things reasonable.

    Have you written the Father Christmas asking for this?
    Obviously you just finished reading your Janet and John books.

    The uncertainty pre-referendum caused damage to the economy. Post referendum even worse. It has already cost me inconvenience and extra expense however, I will find ways around Brexit to get what I want. The tragedy is that those who voted for Brexit are the ones that will be disadvantaged the most by it. Meanwhile, Murdock will have freedom of movement with his fortune. Farage, with have his German EU passport, and the UK economy and workers will be thrown back to what is was like in the 1950s and 60s.

        But why should we help you? You voted out but now you want us to make a bad decision a success. You voted for this, you're the majority, you come up with a viable plan. If we come up with a plan that works you'll just say "told it would work", well i don't see why we should. It's your mess, you solve it.

        My life is unlikely to change either way, but i didn't vote remain for me, i voted remain as i can see those who have little to lose with lose what little they have.

          Wrong...
          Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.

            I never said the UK was tulip. I said it is no longer the colonial power that can dictate terms or fear the consequences of our Navy or the Company. We have a strong economy, built up over the last 30 years in part due to being a partner in Europe. Small minded people still think we can bully other nations - they are going to get a shock.

            Longer term I wouldn't be surprised if we get back to where we have been - but that is going to be 10 + years after a full brexit.

              We disagree on whether the outcome will be a success. I get that, and I respect that.

              If you don't want to be part of the solution, please step out of the way and let us get on with it.

                Good point, you do like to flaunt the cash and tell everyone how much better off you are than them.

                    Where did he say that?

                    The thing you Brexiters refused to understand is that you are suppose to be leading the solution, but it doesn't mean the rest of us will stand out of your way and let you make a mess of it especially when you didn't define exactly what you wanted in the first place.

                      Well from what I've seen so far, contributions have been mostly destructive rather than constructive.

                      At least Labour are mucking in, respect to them for that.
