give it time, there are moves afoot. Not sure if you watch the mainstream scene, but the Areas are rebelling

I'm not one for discussing politics on a 'friendly' forum, it really doesn't interest me too much.

But it is quite clear that the EU despise us, are visibly crapping it that we are leaving, and effectively trying to punish us for the decision to do so (if indeed it goes ahead). They don't actually care about the future for the UK, and for that reason i believe we will in the long-term be better off out of it (if not better off in the short-term, which i should point out won't actually be proven either way until it happens).

(Sorry for the over-simplified summary)

Welcome to the serious side of the forum Travs. This is where the spirit is.

What I was wondering: with the majority of the country voting to leave the EU should it not have been the goal of the UK through its negotiations to destroy them? That is to bring the rotten structure to an end? And as a so called 'no deal' is now the only way to fulfil the referendum result shouldn't we use this to bring their demise with aggressive deregulation? After all they are stuck with their regulations (they're not easy to change) whilst we would be free to do as we please to make our country function effectively.

I guess aggressive deregulation means making the UK more competitive by cutting costs (both private and public sector). Does the UK population want that? i.e workers rights, environmental regulations, health and social care.

I would consider myself to be left of centre and have no problem with paying more tax as long as it is well spent.

Many people voted for Brexit becasue they are pissed off with the status quo (and not without good reason), I would not think they voted to make their situation even worse.

It's got to be worth it, just to wipe the smug expression off Macron's face!

Pat, I suspect most people with a realistic grasp of the situation knew that it would be bumpy ride. You don,t get out of anything like this without some sacrifices along the way.

How do you feel about post Brexit Britain being led by Corbyn?

[Stagger]

Narr. His days are numbered.

[Llani Boy]

The last person I would want to lead Britain is Mr Corbyn.

However,having said that,if we were to leave the EU with no deal and the outcome was a general election and the Labour party, led by Mr Corbyn, won then that would be what the British voted for and I could accept that.

When he makes a bollocks of it, which wouldn't take long, we can vote him out.

What I cannot accept is the fact that the British people voted to leave the EU and our so called leaders are not making it happen which means that we will continue to be run by unelected EU bureaucrats.

By the way, Come on you Bluebirds!
