    FFS, am I going to have to type this out again. OK, I'll do it for the sake of the board.

    You are assuming "all things being equal", which they aren't. Yes, the EU will offer the UK a worse deal than today. That part is logical. But outside of that deal and the union, chess pieces can be moved around so that overall the UK could have a better position than today. Your point is moot and trivial.

    For example, sassy got offered a uni place and a poly place. Those two offers were the only options he had. He lost the uni place because his grades were too low due to bad choice of hobbies. But he took the poly place. On the surface he thought he had the worse deal. But, poly meant he spent less money travelling. He invested that extra money and bought a car with it. That car enabled him to get to dogging hotspots where he made many friends.

    See what I mean? You are correct about the deal being worse than today's deal. But from that point, your inferences are debatable, not certainties.

        I'll try and explain to you want I meant.

        If I drop an apple it will fall the ground. Whether I attribute that to Newton's law of gravity, Einstein's general theory of relativity or some quantum theory of gravity, the apple will fall.

        In fact, even if I believe the falling action is caused by some special ground-pixies with miniature vacuum cleaners who spend their days sucking objects to the ground, it will fall.

        That's what I meant by an "Immutable law of physics", the observable action, not the current human model that interprets that action. Of course, scientific theories are subject to revision as more data and observations become available. I thought that was too obvious to explain to a genius like yourself.

        That's why I said "Immutable law" not "Immutable theory".

          When the seagulls follow the trawler, it is because they think that sardines will be thrown into the sea.

                      not really. I was just correcting your misunderstanding of a comment that I made.

                      In other news SASGuru adds nothing to a thread but snide comments and hysteria.
