    What a time to be alive

    Now we are just waiting for our European brothers and sisters to follow our lead. Let's get back to trading with each other, and forget about all this superstate/open borders/single army nonsense

    Fantastic.
    But, seeing as Brexit hasn't happened yet, and nobody in Gov't/Whitehall seems to know where to begin, perhaps it has been assumed that it may possibly never happen.

    And we will have to rely on the EU since our ships will be without missiles. Also rumours of the police and army unifying into one body.

    I heard rumours that they're introducing a compulsory language called eurosperanto. All schools for all member countries will teach in it, and kids will get just one hour per week in their mother tongue. It should be in force by 2022.

    I think it's an absolute disgrace. Glad we're out.

    Not at all. Just pointing out that it is a bit disingenuous to suggest that some positive economic results are due to us leaving the EU when we are still in it. The full impact, be it positive or negative, will not be fully realised until we are out.

    Price rises may come into affect because of 2 factors - Trump going on a spending spree with increase inflation (hence price rises) , the cost of buying goods from abroad for the manufacture of products in the UK will lead to price rises due to the level of sterling.

    Most economists arent concerned too much about that though. Trump it seems wants the UK to ensure Brexit is a success - with trade agreements asap. A trade agreement with the UK wont impact on jobs in the rust belt states.

    Cautious baby steps etc
    Trump is a US self sustain protectionist, all the US corporates that have set up here to dodge the US tax code will fuk off home if he gets his wish, trumpet will be a colossal fuk up for us.

    Maybe if we followed suit, all of our business would come home too? Globalism only really works for those at the very top.

    It's about time they started doing some real stuff, instead of shifting numbers around on spreadsheets, and shafting everybody else in exchange for a small slice of the pie.
