    No she doesn't, but MI6 does, cos they sent me an email, that said Brexit means Brexit, we got our country back innit.
    I also saw Zinedine Zidane having breakfast in Debenhams in Swansea this morning, so we know where he is going.

    Nah! It was Baldrick with his cunning plan. "Play the leave card."

    The latest plan seems to be

    1 Get out of the Customs Union, but invent something that is as close to it as possible
    2 Get out of the single market, but get a deal that gives us all the single market benefits.
    3 Pay nothing at all into the EU budget, and have no input.
    4 Invent new border controls which may cost twice as much as we currently pay to be EU members.
    5 Stop free movement, but increase immigration from outside the EU.

    So in a nutshell we want the EU to treat us as though we were still members, have no say in the way it is run, and pay twice as much.

    Who thought of that plan?

    You have failed to mention that we get blue passports which apparently is extremely important to people.

    Sorry. Yeah the blue passports made in Holland. Some of the rabid Brexiteers will probably never go abroad again, if they have to buy a passport that was made abroad.

    Do they go abroad anyway?

    Probably not.

    The Government in Holland have advised Dutch companies to seek an alternative to any British suppliers they currently use.
    It follows that the other 26 will also dispense the same advice, if they are not already doing so.
    The reason for this is that any product that qualifies as being made in the EU, must have 55% of its parts manufactured within the EU.
    Obviously, as a result of Brexit, we will be outside the EU, and any British components will no longer qualify. This puts British manufacturers at a severe disadvantage.
    This will result in the EU 27 sourcing components that are manufactured within the EU.
    So whatever trade deal we get, British companies, and the UK economy, will still lose out, as alternatives to British suppliers are found.
    Alternatively British manufacturers will relocate to Europe in order to sustain their businesses.
    I cant remember this coming up pre-referendum.
    I wonder what sort of spin the Brexiteers will try to put on this development.

    The fact that there are people out there that haven't heard of brexit, can only question the point of having a referendum in the first place.

    Jaguar Land Rover moving production from Solihull to Slovakia.
    Bank of America relocating 400 jobs from London to Paris.
    Poundworld in administration with 5,100 jobs at risk, mainly due to weakness of the £.

    All nothing to do with Brexit.

    Yeah and if people disagree with the result then they can campaign to disregard it, ignore it completely or simply berate those who voted the other way as ignorant arrogant thoughtless pokerist morons. Yes ?? is that right ?? After all that's what happened last time there was a referendum result that some didn't like.


    Yours in whatever
