      Regardless of the amount of time when something

      1) Becomes a money pit
      2) Has completely lost it's way and is no longer delivering expected goals
      3) Stops listening to the people it needs to listen to and simply goes and does it's own thing - which is contrary to what it was originally put in place for

      It is time to move on.

      I am not saying that the being a member of the European Economic Community was or is a bad thing - but that has become a small part of a much larger thing which I do not think it is in Britain's interest to be a part of.

          The problem is that the UK has half heartily had one foot in the EU. The UK should have been more assertive and not let fat bottom Merkel to take the lead.

          The EU should be reformed within not by running away from it.

              You Brexiters still can't shake your image of Britain as some sort of successful world power as opposed to the reality that we're down the pan without EU trade
              But you're about to find out, soon enough.
              Hard Brexit now!

                And if we don't

                And if the sky does not fall on our heads

                When will you admit it was not maybe as bad as expected?

                Or will it be never because you will always fall back on the 'Ah but if we had stayed in the EU things would be better?'

                  And you Bremainers can't seem to accept that, whilst some of us have chosen to take to the lifeboats and risk freezing temperatures, your stubborn propensity for repairing to the drawing room for brandy and cigars has not negated the iceberg warnings that are coming in thick and fast.

                      Lagarde Convicted - Guido Fawkes Guido Fawkes

                      In the room where Marie Antoinette was sentenced to death by guillotine, IMF chief Christine Lagarde has been convicted of negligence over a fraudulent €403 million payout to businessman Bernard Tapie in 2008, when she was France’s finance minister. Typical of the French justice system that she will face no punishment. Almost as criminal as the IMF’s forecasts
                      'Careless' over a pay out of some 403 million euros? The EU has lost another fine potential leader there!
