    No, i don't make it sound like that. That is the opinion of the new German Chancellor in waiting. But obviously everyone will be affected.

And as we have seen in the past any attempt to change it has the tractors out in force and the french government caves in and then vetos any change because they don't have the bottle to fight their farmers (Or anyone else history may suggest!)

    Yes, but won what? A leave with or without a deal or does it not really matter as long as we leave?

    They need us more than we need them.

    Unfortunately May is the weak link, and she appears to be part of the EU negotiating team, not ours!

    Will you STOP with this utter nonsense. How, logically, can that possible be the case?

    Get some reading glasses ...

    "A recent poll suggested 100,000 German jobs could be affected by a no-deal Brexit.

    The BDI Federation of German Industry warned Germany would lose at least 0.5% of its GDP - and this at a time when the German economy is already heading south."

    The EU will also have to deal with Trump, who is going to aggressively renegotiate their current trade deal.

    Got reading glasses thanks.

    Yes, Brexit is bad for the German economy. Not disputed.

    How do they need us more than we need them though?

    Please explain.

    ...Actually don't bother.

    We can make a trade deal with the US on the day we leave.

    Oh yippee, so we can be bent over backwards by Trump just so we can get a deal. Remember his slogan America First, we have no bargaining chips in those negotiations whatsoever. What do you think the US will demand from us to get a deal?

    Considering we can't even negotiate leaving the EU, we are highly unlikely to be able to get a deal from the States that is good for this country.

    The other thing is that it takes years to negotiate a trade deal, we will not have anything signed the day after we leave the EU.

    I would suggest history would suggest different, Napoleon certainly spent plenty of years fighting the rest of Europe

    Brexit has cost the economy £550 million a week since the referendum. Put that on the side of the bus

    no its not. If you believe anything being discussed on this board is "Serious" you lead a very quiet and un-serious life. good luck to you.

    What's barmy is living in a country where half of the people are scared of their own shadows

    So because it's discussed on here, it's not serious? People have been laid off already and brexit hasn't even happened yet.

    Unfortunately, the people who don't think it's serious have the same voting power as those who do.

    Cognitive dissonance is so strong among certain sectors.

    It’s not worth debating on this board, there has not even after all these pages been one decent reason given to leave that isn’t completely easily proved to be nonsense.

    The brexit people were sold doesn’t exist, anyone who still wants it is happy for the country to become an economic backwater just so they can say they’ve “won”.

    They tell me if you had cognitive dissonance, then you probably wouldn't be aware of it

    Ah ok. Brexit is just a bit of message board banter for you then?. Good to know so that those of us who think that Brexit is actually serious can just ignore you.

    I lead a quiet and unserious life? I wish...
