"Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience". Mark Twain -
'Hard Brexit' is 'no Brexit' for Britain - Tusk
In his speech, Mr Tusk mocked a Brexit campaign promise that Britons could "have the EU cake and eat it too" - the idea that the UK might manage to keep trade benefits of EU membership while barring European immigrants and rejecting EU courts' authority.
"To all who believe in it, I propose a simple experiment. Buy a cake, eat it, and see if it is still there on the plate."

Profits of company with Euro as currency start to fall due to falling pound. Company tries to increase prices to accommodate. Company fails.
Repeat for all companies that manufacture and supply to uk but report in Euros. Who is losing?Comment

There is no political will in the Nation for the pain required to achieve this kind of re-balancing. Already the siren calls of 'Nobody told me if would be like this' are starting to be heard. I wish Ms May and her 12 seat majority lots of luck trying to navigate a mega inflation and job losses in order to 're-balance' the economy.Comment
