Nissan made it very clear that WTO rules aren't acceptable and the government have promised them (and everyone else as well) that won't be the case.

The EU won't simply throw the UK out, that isn't what they're about, what their intention is to humiliate the UK. At the end of the negotiations the UK will have a choice between WTO and humiliation, and humiliation it will be.
As you will have read from the articles I have posted, at the moment the EU are bricking it as their own economists are telling them they have more to lose than we do.Comment

Originally posted by GB9 View PostSo let's execute what we voted for and then when that is done we can discuss where we are going.
£350 million a week for the NHS
A total ban on all immigration
Bent bananas
Doughnuts for everyone
You'll reply with "don't be an idiot, we voted to leave the EU", but which bits of the EU? The pledges during the campaign didn't detail that, they just talked about how we'd have all this extra money to spend on the NHS, bent bananas and no immigrants.
...and don't use the words "unelected" or "undemocratic", unless you're talking about Westminster, it's 2 chambers and the UK Civil Service.…Maybe we ain’t that young anymoreComment

Originally posted by BlasterBates View PostExactly and generally people in the EU are simply expecting the EU to offer a fairly clear binary take it or leave it approach. In fact in Germany which would be most affected, they can't find enough skilled workers for their car industry so they're pretty uninterested as to whether it shrinks somewhat as a result of Brexit.Comment

I'm sure this has been said before, possibly even in this thread, but parliament HAS had a say. They voted through the Referendum Bill by a huge margin and the government along with the rest of the Remain campaign made it very clear that this is OUR choice and if the country chooses to leave the EU then leave we would.
ISTR Cameron said he'd invoke Article 50 the very next day.
So we don't need another vote & for some of the Remainiacs to claim that this result is a victory for our parliamentary democracy is completely disingenouus because we all know that our elected MPs along with the unelected Europhile rump in the House of Lords will do everything to hinder, water down and possibly even overturn Brexit and if that happens yet more law making powers will be transferred to Brussels & we won't have any parliamentary democracy left to speak of.Comment
