    ok, back to business

    do you really believe A50 is the end of the story ?

    Milan.
    Of course not! A50 was the beginning.

    The EU has to make the UK suffer. Its their only goal. Whether we leave or try to rejoin. The vast majority of EU citizens don't want that. They want the best deal for the EU.

    The UK are getting very fed up with the ruling classes who don't care about the vast majority of the population. And the EU got caught in the crossfire.

    I am still wondering what will happen next! Would be fascinating if not for the fact that the UK will suffer.

    The only thing we can be sure of is that the rich-poor gap will widen.

    Your thoughts on what happens next?

      well, what to say, we used to sit at the top table in the EU, we had the best conditions of all the members of the top table and then we said we'd leave

      what do we expect ?

          Lots of infighting in the Tory party until either "Soft Brexit" is agreed or they implode and split asunder to stay out of power for a generation, leaving Labour in power for the forseeable future.

              The same goes for those who voted for Brexit. Much damage has been done already.

                I still maintain the UK is heading for a "Switzerland" model, but the DUP alliance complicates the picture and the UK may end up inside the customs union. Inside the customs union you still arrange your own trade deals, it's just the EU have to sign off.

                  My contention is that the majority of those who voted Brexit were not voting Brexit. They were registering a protest vote at inequality.

                  I could well be totally wrong. I usually am.....

                      Brillo, totally agree

                      and that's the root of the problem, and what has contributed to this whole mess, along with the hard core Brexiters not accepting the position, "the majority of those who voted Brexit were not voting Brexit. They were registering a protest vote at inequality", and then the PM going feet first for a hard Brexit

                      perfect storm
