The real reason for bremainer moans

[diseasex]

Ladies & Gentleman I introduce the shipping container, which drives down costs and therefore makes the gravity model far less important.

That Chinese Keyboard you are typing on with that Thai Hard drive and the Chinese processor probably support this.

Typical Bremainer left back in the 1960s. Desperate to be part of the EUSSR.

Try to ship service in that container. Surely brexit Britain can do this and make this model false.

Surely 21h flight to australia will boost trade. Ladies and gentlemen container for businessmen doing trade talks

Jeez vetran, when Diseasex makes you look stupid, things must be very bad indeed.
I know you're immensely thick but has nothing penetrated your noggin in all these months of discussion?
Services comprise 80% of UK trade. We are a post-industrial country.

Right ok so when IBM get their coding done in India we have to 'ship' that service physically to where it is needed?

oh wait the internetz!

service is not a physical commodity and so does not need to be physically moved

derp

[meridian]

You do realise that if some one fails or struggles and all you ever do is bail them out they will never learn?

Simple chucking money at the problem and hoping it goes away is incredible destructive.

Oh. So if I follow your argument correctly, it appears that you're arguing that the EU has harmed the poorest regions in the U.K. by bailing them out?

Whereas the U.K. Government, by not helping them, has been acting in their best interests?

Services is mainly financial and legal services as far as the UK is concerned.
There is a reason why 60% goes to the EU, including free movemoment of labour, passporting rights, and the fact that the EU (with the US) is the largest and richest part of the world, by a fooking long margin

[sal]

If you have fook all - what can be taken away from you?

And as we have been in the EU since 1973 and these areas have always remained poor then how can you say being in the EU has made a difference to them?

What ever the EU was was not working for these areas - so do we

a) Carry on doing what we have aways done and hope things magically change?
b) Get off our arses and make the change happen?


Two sorts of people in this world.

They don't have fook all - they have fat benefits that disincentivize them to get off their asses. Said benefits are provided by the UK Government, let's see for how long though, so they have something to lose.

What EU did for these areas might not have worked, but it was still more than what the UK did. This is one of the good sides of being EU member - Despite UK being net contributor to the EU coffers, the EU is pouring funds to poorest regions in EU as a whole disregarding that said poorest regions are in a major contributor like the UK. Acting as a check against own government neglect, this will no longer exist.

EU Membership in no way prevented the UK Government to work towards investing and enrichment of these poor regions. What makes you think this will change after leaving the EU?

The gov has these poor regions right, where they want them to be - easily manipulatable electorate, ready to cast their populist vote.

I take it you live in one of these areas? With respect, these people aren't stupid.

And so now we can address these issues rather than hiding behind a load of EU funding.

It will be difficult I admit - but things worth doing often are

One of the reason many people voted brexit was so we could look at the UK and fix what is broken.

I don't live in these areas and i didn't call the people living there stupid, just lazy and naive.
