Brexit

[Jack Staff]

UPDATE

Well I am getting some good advice as to where to put my 'spare cash' in the event of a looming hard Brexit. Not surprisingly others are making similar decisions. Interestingly, with shrewd informed investing, a hard Brexit could be a nice little earner.

Hi Ray, its your best mate Keith here........where should l be putting my money?

Euros

Excellent post Barney, not so sure about our Jack being anti-british but as long as he keeps his anti-brexit views to this forum they'll be no harm done

Harm has been done.

I'm surprised that you have taken offence to this.

Anti literally means - against or opposed to.

Take a trawl back through your posts and try and find a single one that has been Pro UK.

You have taken the EU side at every stage, including supporting their unseemly treatment of our Prime Minister

As you can tell from my previous posts, I'm not May's greatest fan, but that was a step too far.

Maybe Anti-Democrat would be a more accurate description as you still haven't come to terms with the fact that your side lost a legitimate vote.


The serial losers like The independent and Guardian are just pandering to their ever diminishing readership.
They have backed the wrong side on virtually everything.

I used to buy the Guardian every day before it went off the rails.

Your surprise can be put down to you not understanding the situation.
I love my country and hate people who are trying to damage it. That means you, at present, but I hope you have enough patriotism in you to finally see the damage the nationalists are doing. There will be no UK if they get their way. How much more pro UK do you want me to be?
I want the best for my country and that means remaining in the EU.

And you can cut the anti democrat tosh as well. Denying people a vote is pretty much the definition of anti democratic.

[barney]

You have had your vote Jack, as has everyone else.
Sure, you'll get another one, as soon as a political party wants to take the chance.
It will likely be in the form of a general election.

I'll assume you will be voting LibDem or Green, as will the 48% who voted to remain.

Both big parties stood on a manifesto of leaving the EU.
To prompt your memory, that was just last year.
Between them, they got over 80% of the votes.
Surely that is how democracy works.

How many times do we have to re-run the same discussuion.
It's over.
The Uk leaves the EU at 11.00 pm on 29th March 2019.
All that is to be discussed is under what terms.

Brexit is a great earner for anyone with money, including us- every time Mrs May speaks the £ falls and investments go up. It is an even greater earner for the people driving it as they have so much more money than the rest of us and the acumen, contacts and gambling instinct to be able to use this to their advantage. They also have the most to lose if we do not exit, though I am sure they will have hedged against this as well.

It is the people with little or no money behind them that will suffer greatly.

Add house crash and negative equity, inflation and there could be millions of causalities - including people who least expect it.

I do not yet know how I will vote.
It might be for Labour depending on what goes on at their current conference, if they realise that a Peoples Vote will get them elected.
Alternatively, I could even vote Conservative once Johnson has toppled May and calls an election on the promise of a Peoples Vote.

Finally some sense on this forum.

Or .... alternatively, everything could be fine.
Nobody has a crystal ball GP and financial forecasters are notoriously bad at their job.
It's at best an educated guess.
Take last months inflation figure of 2.7%
They called it wrong and it was higher than forecast.
So they cannot even get it correct a month in advance and they are seriously expecting folk to believe a figure for 15 years in advance.

Cast your mind back to June 2016 the ridiculous forecasts done at that time in a vain attempt to influence the vote.

I can predict (with accuracy) that ripping up all our trade deals will not make things better.

Let's play nicely … or would you prefer that the Topic is ' Locked '.

Hi Keith much of the information I could not possibly disclose. However I believe you can get good odds on us remaining in the EU

I think one of Onelife's wheezy old nags stands a better chance of winning.

Really p******* off now. Farage's latest pronouncement have halved the odds.

Hi Keith , good that you are facing up to the inevitability of getting poorer after Brexit, but please, spare a thought for all those to whom it will be a massive shock.

No pain no gain?

Who would have thought that leaving a multi-billion-pound economic safety net might be a major cause of concern for the financial wellbeing for what is, ultimately, a rather small and remote island?”

Because that safety net has many holes in it and we have been trying to mend it for many years but did they listen?

I really am getting tired of the disparaging remarks about our great country from the remainers on here.

They are entitled to their beliefs / concerns / fears ' Towny ' as are us Jolly Boy Brexiteers …. perhaps we are small minded Brits whereas they are, or think they are, broad minded ( some would say brainwashed ) Europeans.

Did I mention … my views changed in part towards ' Leave ' not because of village mentality or ignorance but as a direct consequence of travelling to the more remote parts of Europe … places that Cruise Ships do not reach.

I really am getting tired of peoples actions that will lead to the break up of my great country.

NO comment that anybody makes on here could possibly lead to the break up of our Country …. only the EU negotiators or Nicola Sturgeon could come close …. neither are Members.
