Fell free to add more. Populist movements will sweep Europe, wrong they are dead or dying. The Euro will fail, wrong it's far stronger than the £ now. May will win a landslide! We'll have our cake and eat it, ie the single market, that worked out well didn't it? We are shacked to a corpse, it's walking around as we speak whist we have developed a bit of a cold as of late. The EU is politically chaotic, best not look closer to home! I'm sure we will be adding many many more to this list in the coming months as reality finally dawns on the masses.... |

Once again you construct a stereotype that only exists between your ears then throw rocks at it. Brexit is not over . You have a serious case of premature exclamations. |

I'm not a gambler, but I do listen and watch. What I see is the they need us more than we need them brigade making tits of themselves on a regular basis. Feel free to start your own thread and tell us all about the wonderful future that awaits us, if you are right I'll be overjoyed to admit I was wrong, in the meantime I'll go with the flow. |

Feel free to quit the fallacies and hyperbole. I never said that the future is wonderful. This thread only reflects your unrelenting ability to dredge up negativity and spew it on to this forum . You dress up insults and conjecture as facts and hyperbole as wisdom . As said ,you have constructed a Brexiters stereotype between your ears and are trying to flog your hate/fantasy as reality. |

Thing is ,I am very fond of this forum. However whenever I come back to it there are the same old crowd spouting the same old fallacies. They use it as a platform to belittle others and promote themselves as insightful sages. Trouble is that when their shite is revealed they attempt post after post to turn it into a bitchfest until a mod comes to their rescue. This thread was put up as bait and a chance to make a big fat strawman. |

My personal opinion is that the Conservative party would dearly like to walk away from these Brexit talks and want others to do it for them. They created this problem, and now have no idea how to resolve it. The only thing that the referendum will achieve is that the UK will no longer be bound by EU membership restrictions - sovereignty fully returned. The theorist in me leads me to suspect that this single facility is all that was ever wanted! We've been had once more! |

They didn't create the problem. The people who voted created the problem...unless you think that a referendum equates to being a problem. Personally I don't think that the Labour Party would have any idea how to solve it either. Don't despair though there is very very little chance of a hard Brexit . |

Here, I disagree......I believe it will be a "walk away job" The EU know full well that had they been flexible with Cameron then we would not be where we are at present. But Politicians cannot be seen to have made wrong decisions (twats) I do not envisage this forthcoming horse trading to end in a friendly and equitable manner unless the EU has learned a lesson about flexibility. |

Well Cameron certainly thought a remain win was in the bag but whatever the reasons for it , the public was responsible for the upset. I notice that the EU has not made any inflammatory comments of late ..and I doubt that is because of a fire in London. IMO EU officials make statements for political gain and to prepare for negotiations. Also IMO a hard Brexit is not going to happen, the EU would rather have a happy UK halfway in the EU than a bitter one outside of it...ditto the UK. |

Very little chance? I'm not so sure. We could end up walking away from their intransigence. We are not the Eu's enemy, we are friends, but that could all change. |

Their intransigence? We want to leave the club, they did expel us. If we want to have some of the advantages of being in the club then we will have to listen to the club members. |

And vice versa.....would that be correct? Do not forget, we have already been to them in the Form of a "wet" PM who was far too sure of himself, he did not ask for much and got even less than that simply because he was not convinced that the electorate would confound him and they KNEW that. Now is not the time to be nice and polite, if they want to do business then business it must be.

*And we have a winner!* This time the Tories have bitten off more than they can chew, they can't admit it of course they will have to wear this one, the EU has the means at it's disposal to hurt the pockets of the Tories and they will be shitting themselves at the prospect, the Tories know what they need to do to brush this under the carpet but the right wing tax dodging press and milions of dim but enthusiastic Brexitards stirred up by years of xenophobia will be snapping at their heels. Looking ahead how will they sell the loss of key industries to the Brexitards?

Strange, with no access to the single market there is very little reason to keep EU owned British businesses here in the UK, and if they export then it becomes virtually a certainty that the jobs and businesses will be repatriated. That'll be tens of thousands of jobs hopping on the ferry won't it? Someone will be along soon to wave a flag and pretend we are a bit special and remind us they need us more tha..... etc etc. |

If you want to know the truth they just got pissed off with the UK constantly asking for a different set of rules than the other members got, and let's face it whatever we got it was never going to be enough for the nations legions of Little Englanders, one of those lines was drawn in the sand and we stepped over it. Seeya Britain! |

Well I'd bet Tigger can source each of those predictions as having also been made by posters here as well as Brexit aligned politicians so that side isn't false and if you're saying his assessments of the current situation are false then please be more specific We could add "Turkey will be an EU member very soon" as further Brexiter prediction bollocks I suggest your post is motivated mostly by a nervousness that the Brexit dream looks more like a nightmare every day and a possible search for the guilty is more a question of when not if. |

I forgot that one, didn't man of the people Farage stand in front of a five metre high poster with a line of immigrants on it? 75 million would be entitled to come here was the tag line with that one, worker a treat I expect. |

He also said over 500 million Europeans could come here. Which would have been amazing as there's nothing like 500 million in the EU27 But then you and I always did know Farage was just a glorified barrow boy bullshitter |

No, that doesn't work either The Maastricht Treaty created the problem, by 1) inflating a trade agreement into a disguised superstate with five different presidents 2) inventing a posh 's' word to suggest the powers being laid down in the treaty were for use in extremis 3) turning that clause through 180 as soon as the ink was dry 4) pushing, pushing and pushing even more until the staves on the barrel were about to break |

The situation, politically rearding Turkey has changed considerably in the relevant period. Prior to the referendum a deal was struck between the EU and Turkey to take back migrants, in return for them reconsidering their application to join the EU. Erdogan was playing the EU like a fiddle. Under those conditions EU membership for Turkey was looking quite likely. Since then we have had the very weird military coup and clampdown in Turkey followed by a referendum in Turkey which gives Erdogan the powers of a dictator. Under those circumstances EU membership now looks dead in the water. |
