Suck it up. Your leader has bottled it.

I vote for David Davis as the next PM.
I don't think Boris will get s/elected.

Originally posted by Mordac View PostAny changes will take 2 years from the activation of article 50, and if you have a British passport, there will be a seperate queue by then.
And I would imagine UK citizen with a current EU passport will be able to keep one until it comes to the end of it's natural life.

The only thing people are really likely to notice is longer queues at passport control when going abroador returning from abroad.
The mandate is to leave the EU. The referendum said precisely zero about the ongoing relationship and what parts of EU law and custom we will keep.

I think the following will change. They'll all impact people, but marginally, and be barely noticeable.
1. It will be a little harder to export to Europe. They'll put up some trade barriers to "punish" us, but not enough to kill trade, just to make it harder. This will hurt some industries marginally.
2. We'll respond with comparable barriers, which will hurt Europe's exporters, but also marginally increase the price of some goods here.
3. There will probably be a little lower immigration, with a corresponding barely noticeable increase in average wages due to supply and demand.
4. The public finances will marginally improve due to not sending money to the EU, and also to the proceeds from trade duties (see #2). This will probably just be wasted, but it could be used to reduce the deficit, with corresponding impact mortgage rates, etc.
The only thing people are really likely to notice is longer queues at passport control when going abroad or returning from abroad.
