    Invoking article 50?? It will never happen.

    There is no concrete plan for post-brexit. We can see all sorts of reneges happening right now from all quarters of the leaver leads - NHS investment, immigration, etc.

    No one knows what is in store after invoking Article 50, especially with new trade deals with Non-eu, the time it will take to secure them, and even if there are deals to be made to access the EU single market - there is this serious fear about how to deal with the freedom of labour that needs to be allowed in one form or the other.

    We will remain as full EU members for a long time to come, and I am talking about decades here.

      The whole plan of Boris and co was 'Vote No to get Yes'. They wanted to use a No vote as leverage to get more concessions from the EU. The EU have now called their bluff (As many of us said they would ) and now they are in a bind. They know that there is NO WAY they can invoke article 50 without firm guarantees in place for the city of London. The EU (Paris and Frankfurt) can't wait to get all the Euro transaction business from London. No Tory PM wants to go down as the one who gave away London's status as a premier global financial center.

        Well we could just keep article 50 dangling over the heads of the EU to try and leverage some better deals....

        Also given the shocking rise in racism apparently would we actually qualify for EU entry were we in a position to join?

        Maybe it is for the best we are not?

          As one of the French ministers hinted restriction of movement might be on the cards, I think the EU is wilting.

            I thought the Brexiteers wanted to leave Europe and embrace the world?
            DOesn't look like the grassroots want to embrace the Ch**ys, P*k*s and N*g*ers
            Brand UK is becoming toxic both on an economic and political level - google the headlines around the world.
            How can anyone in their right mind want to invest here?

              My agent hinted I might get a rate rise/extension
              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.
