If Brexit hadn't happened, what would we be talking about all day ?

[The_Equalizer]

UKIP would have been preferable to the DUP.

And why is that?

[NotAllThere]

And why is that?

Inevitable split would happen within 6 days, rather than 6 months?

They'll be no split with the DUP. The alternative for both parties will ensure that.

Yep.

How many leaders have UKIP gone through?

I also bet that some of their MPs like councillors would be suspended or worse.

Its what we wouldn't be talking about that is more important , staycations , easily being able to work in Europe, large employers like banks and chemical companies threatening to leave without access to Europe , Investment in the UK dropping like a stone as companies realise access to the EU market is not as freely available, future technologies being dismantled and moved back to Europe ...etc. etc.

There again a discussion on fantasies like sovereignty , making our own laws and controlling immigration , Irish border , trade etc. are also interesting considering they amount to diddly squat and nobody has any solutions one year down the line.

I wonder what percent of the UK population ever work anywhere but the UK.

Maybe if you think about that and pull your head out of the ridiculous bubble you have created where by you assume because it is something you want to do everyone else should therefore make sure you can.

Because you are mummy's special soldier.

The referendum for Brexit was inevitable. Cameron called it to defuse UKIP. If he hadn't then he might have had to share power with UKIP in order to form a government.

When does the Tories sharing power with UKIP look good? When the Tories are sharing power with DUP! And they paid them for it.

Couldn't make it up.

Not without any MPs.
The referendum was meant to be bargained away in a coalition deal with Nick Clegg.
Cameron did what nobody expected and won a majority. Like John major before him he'll not be forgiven for being successful.
He could have been brave and swerved the referendum but hubris got the better of him and he assumed he'd win that one easily.

Evening All,

If Brexit hadn't happened, what would we be talking about all day ?

And, what would the government be doing ?

Milan.

Moaning the Government to have a referendum?

Normally I don't respond to people who use childish name calling as an argument but as you have also completely missed the point here let me explain further.

A lot of the people on the contracting UK site are IT contractors and many do come to the EU, especially when they cant find a contract in the UK. Granted people with very specialised skills will still be in demand here as they will be anywhere , but operational , project management , network , infrastructure teams etc. etc. which do contain many from the UK will now find it harder or almost impossible to get contracts over here without a EU passport.

So the question is related to the number of people that visit this site that want at least the chance of working abroad and I would say that is a pretty high proportion.

Feck me.

Just because you're a useless public sector/utilities permie worker who adds fook-all value to anything, you assume everyone is like you?


Is there no limit to the immense stupidity of Brexiters?
