Another hidden financial loss

But they have not told the true story in a factual way have they?

Has the report been written in a way to lead a reader to a false conclusion?

Unfortunately they are all just journalists who will spin a story anyway they want to either sell "news" information or satisfy their own political egos. To get a balance to any story one must read the same story from multiple sources only then can one make a reasoned judgement.

Will the red tape be increased or will it just be a different shade of red. Basic economics of supply and demand will prevail in the end. If Co. A has a product, or service, that Co B wants/needs at a price that they both agreed on then the rest is, and always has been Red Tape to make that purchase/sale happen.
Anybody who suggests that the UK economy will stop spinning whilst the rest of the world continues to spin is living on a different planet. Yes there maybe hiccups generated largely by the rich and powerful on the world markets, remember Black Wednesday and the problems caused by one very rich individual. How does anyone know what will really happen with any certainty. How does anyone know they are not just being manipulated with stories of Armageddon in preparation for a get richer scheme by the rich and powerful after Bexit.

I always enjoy the bravado, truth is the EU squeezing the UK until the pips squeak.

Maybe Brexiteers could use some of that grey matter and get out there and research it before jumping to conclusions. There is a report of the survey with all the facts and figures and then quite possibly, and I mean possibly, work it out for themselves

Sounds reasonable but is highly susceptible to false balance. Not all sources are equally reliable and authoritative, nor is the evidence for their view point equally strong. If you haven't the intellectual capacity and subtlety to make the correct value judgments, then reading the same story from different perspectives is likely to lead you down the garden path. Sometimes its sensible to listen to experts.

Sometimes its sensible to listen to experts.

And other times it is not - like the 364 economists in 1981.

I can confirm that the "expert" CUK moderators talk bollux much more than most.

That's because I, at least, am an expert in testicular communication.

UK and Europe have very different legal systems so not sure that this story holds any water.

UK and USA are adversarial systems.
Most of Europe (thanks to Napolean) use inquisitorial systems.
Adversarial systems are better in certain circumstances (particularly if you want to sue someone).

Add to that the fact that UK's legal system has been business friendly for centuries and that isn't going to change with Brexit.

And the distinct lack of useful information in the article....


I'm calling bulltulip.... or bad journalism...


CAVEAT: brexit is still a tulip show that's going to **** the country for decades. Just not like this.

Although the UK is more friendly for libel cases than elsewhere. See my post earlier about using some grey matter to research before spouting bad journalism otherwise that's just a knee jerk reaction to something you don't agree with.

Just think... in the last two years, we've gone from "an extra £350m a week!" to literally "stockpiling in case of food shortages."
