2016-06-29 Brexit: EU warns UK on freedom of movement
As Talleyrand was supposed to have said (but that page claims he didn't), "They have learned nothing, and forgotten nothing", a fancy way of saying they are a bunch of obstinate idealistic idiots.Mr Cameron told EU leaders at Tuesday night's dinner that the "lack of a decisive and effective method to handle migration" had led the majority of British voters to choose to leave the EU.
The principle of freedom of movement of people is one of the "four freedoms" - along with goods, capital and services - that underlie the EU's internal market.
EU leaders seem united after Wednesday's meeting that there will be no "nuances", as Mr Juncker put it, for the UK.
What the page claims he did say was "I know where there is more wisdom than is found in Napoleon, Voltaire, or all the ministers present and to come — in public opinion", which for Brexiters is a nice complement.

So your grand plan is to spend the next decade just trying to keep us afloat, before triggering article 50?Originally posted by vetran View Post3. Negotiate outside EU and get enough business to keep us afloat then tell the EU what we want if they want to trade with us just like Canada, India & China. Then we can invoke article 50.
You do know how long trade negotiations take, don't you? It's not like sending a contract to B&C for a 24-hour turnaround...Comment

You're wasting your time, the thick zombies have taken over. Evidence, reason, knowledge and facts are all worthless - as their leader said: "We don't need experts".Originally posted by meridian View Post

You guys really make me laugh.
Invoking Article 50 is likely to make our rating fall even more.Comment

We find that negotiations take significantly longer when they involve more countries, especially if the countries are spread across different regions.Comment

At last. Glad to hear that.Originally posted by rl4engc View PostI thought the whole point of invoking Article 50 was to restore confidence in the markets and show that our main two parties aren't just a bunch of headless chickens. Restore AAA rating and all that.
That said, what you are thinking is wrong.

So bang goes your idea of knocking off a few over tea tomorrow to scare those Europeans



You sheeple followed your innumerate leaders straight over a cliff.

Apparently Corbyn has said he's had enough but his press secretary Seamus Milne(?) says he has told him to stay put."You’re just a bad memory who doesn’t know when to go away" JRComment

Unelected press secretary telling a democratically elected MP what to do? Disgraceful!…Maybe we ain’t that young anymoreComment
