      So about 2.5 years then.

      Of course, if we'd stayed in the EU then UK tax-payers would continue to have pay £10B a year net to fund the infrastructure of other countries rather than investing it within the UK.

        That's right the UK will push through a deal where they don't have to pay anything to gain access to the single market like all the other countries outside the EU do.
        I'm alright Jack

          You are determined to assume there cannot be a positive outcome, aren't you?

          I'm interested in your psychology. Why has this decision to change the relationship with Europe, that clearly was not working well for the majority of the UK population and had not been working for a long time, hurt you so much?

          I voted Remain. But really, I'm over it.

            Yeah, right...that 10bn will go to bailing out banks (again) or 'bribing' foreign industries to stay in the UK once they've left the single market...

            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.

              Cynic.

              I think it will be spent on hosting the Olympic games and building new HS2's every couple of years.

              In 20 years time, all this will have been forgotten as we travel to work in our new shiny new trains.

                Not at all, it's good

                after all the UK holds all the cards.

                  So you view it as a card game, a zero-sum game. That explains a lot. Thanks for the insight.

                  Try viewing it as a non-zero sum game and you'll feel happier.

                    You can't have a cake and eat it, that's not a possible positive outcome, it's a fantasy.
