You voted for it. Bear the consequences.
There's going to be a gravy train for some but not for you.
Prices are going to rise.
So is unemployment.
Meanwhile our debt to GDP ratio is going to grow to over 100%.
You sowed the wind, now reap the whirlwind.

Just as long as the credibility of your position is upheld the rest of us will dedicate our lives to proving you right. After all nothing else matters

Is it one of these? specially vacated for EU dignitaries and their friends






Bleeding houses grafitti against state violence”. On July 2013, the mayor violently evicted poor people from their homes at the Fontaínhas neighbourhood in Porto, then “someone” painted solidarity grafitti on the abandoned houses. The dwellers have since been displaced to “social housing” with no River Douro Views

The pro-Brexit politicians handed the task of withdrawing from the EU and creating a new trade system for the U.K. began to flesh out their thinking over the weekend. While they took an upbeat approach, citing the chances of a bilateral deal with Canada, its International Trade Minister Chrystia Freeland said her priority was to get an EU-Canada trade deal ratified during 2017.

Canada exports almost twice as much to the UK as it imports so why would it block a trade deal with the UK?

but exports more to the EU than the UK.

hint: the EU (without the UK) is 6 times the size of the UK-

Therefore obviously the EU is at the front of the queue.
