Re: Well

The only pity is the spineless and incompetent tossers we have "negotiating" on our side.

I have written here many times BEFORE the referendum that you will not get to pick and choose, nor negotiate anything ... why ? The EU does not need the UK, the UK needs the EU!

There is no such thing as a negotiation, there are treaties and laws in place, the EU has said AGAIN, AGAIN, AND AGAIN, that British government is living in fantasy land, the UK has ABSOLUTELY NO LEG TO STAND ON, the EU will not make a special deal with the UK, it has already taken over our financial sector (cf passporting rights have been denied, so is already happening as I type), it will take our aircraft industry, or what is left of it, elsewhere, I heard Spain were eager ... we shall see ...

[...]

UK: We do not want single market.

EU: Thank you so much for your financial sector, that was quite a treat!

UK: You're welcome, BTW, we want no customs union, either!

EU: Well, tough, that ... now, where's your industry, please ? Thanks!

I had already outlined this time and time again prior to the vote and the leavers were all "You do not know what you are talking about, we'll make a deal!!"

I appear to have been right all along, for once :D

PS: I was disenfranchised so could not vote ... if that matters ...
