Certainly something Leave.eu failed to consider....

Why is this a problem Jack, most UK exporters want to trade on their UK origin, and companies that don't export don't care either.
Not a problem to me, just to Leave.eu!
I would imagine they will be overjoyed when their domain name is revoked.
With the transition period and public opinion swinging against Brexit? I very much doubt that.

As OL quoted, they could open an EU subsidiary, not a good look.

It's as if the people behind Brexit haven't got a clue what they are doing.

Just in case Jack still assumes that nothing is being done.

https://www.politico.eu/article/uk-gove ... -training/

A necessary expense because the UK has left negotiations up to the EU for the last forty years.
That's worked well hasn't it?
Three serious trade deals in forty years, ( South Korea, Canada & Japan) two of which are still to be ratified by the 28 nations.
Italy says it will oppose CETA unless it gets concessions.
The EU is an absolute joke of an organisation.

Brand UK will be flying this time next year.
Sunlit uplands await. :wave:
We'll be on our own and on the up.
My SIL reckons that the UK are well ahead of the game and that it's the EU that are struggling to get up to speed, basically because many are STILL in denial.
Many of her European counter parts are still convinced that Brexit won't happen on 29th March 2019.
We'll see on the 29th, won't we.

TM is still making noises about her Chequers deal but the general assumption in Whitehall now, is that the UK will be leaving without a formal agreement or at best, an eleventh hour compromise will be struck. So, all plans are being made for the Brexit that the majority voted for. That is, a clean break.
The 'migrants' hanging around Calais are rubbing their hands, knowing there is a good chance of getting on a truck French side as they will be sitting there for days. The downside for them is that the UK initially intends to check every vehicle coming in from the EU. on the French side.

All that money behind the so called people's vote and all they can mange in all this time is a measly 267K clicks on a website.
To 'sign' the petition ?????? Nobody is signing anything. Anyone from anywhere in the world can click it.
All you need to do is offer a UK address. What a joke.
Mind you when you see the likes of Vince Cable and Caroline Lucas leading them, you can understand why.
They both represent … err... nobody.
I actually took the time to explore the shambles.

Headline - The South West is overwhelming for a 'people's vote'

So says Sarah Woolaston ( tory) who's constituents voted to leave.
They polled one thousand people and then extrapolated the figures to give a percentage.
Even with doing this, it was only 42% which they present as a majority ?????
Who's doing the maths. Diane Abbott?

It seems to me that it's almost an excuse to get suckers to part with their money, there is so much for sale on there.
When will the losing side just please accept that they lost and will need to try harder next time?

I doubt there would be a next time. The EU is already a failed project and has been limping along for years buoyed by its own extravagance and the hold it exerts over its member states.

Plenty more links to the failure of the EU.
But the Remainers can still dream, deluded that they are.

The Chequers deal is a non starter. So it's no deal or remain. Not even Dan Hannan voted for a no deal. Farage was always banging on about Norway. So the majority voting for it is simply wrong. Anyway, we will find out in the next vote, won't we? Unless you are scared of losing?

There won't be another vote on brexit. The next one will be whether to join or not. That will be in the euro and shengen. Would you vote to join under those terms ?

Seems a bit strange to me as to why those who love the EU so much don't want to be really in like most of the rest. That is in the eurozone in the shengen travel area and give up the UK rebate. Then they could call themselves true Europeans. Alternatively they could up sticks and leave this backward little island on the fringe of Europe and let the rest of us get on with being an independent country.

That's because we realise and understand that the EU does not do what the Brexiters claim. They do not want one European nation. All countries of the EU are different and will remain so. Nine countries do not use the Euro and six are not in Schengen, though four who are not in the EU are in Schengen.
So "most" doesn't really work as each country is different and has a relationship that suits them, within the rules of the club.

Well Brexiters already have shown that they can't run a drinking session in a booze factory. So be careful what you wish for.

They may well be different Jack but there are a few which have one thing in common.... Greece, Hungery, Lithuania and Malta all recive more money from the EU than what they put in.

Time to start looking after our needs rather than dishing out money to countries which have mismanaged their own economies.

And yet … in spite of getting loadsa EU money Greece is in a terrible state.

A perfect example of why being in the EU can be a bad thing, prior to joining they were employed and happy little bunnies … but not any more. :thumbdown:
