Who saw that coming :hehe:
We did have a benefit of negotiating our vaccines on our own, which is the first tangible benefit I think.

Re: For those who voted 'to get Brexit done'
Isn't everything constantly negotiated?
Climate targets, corporation taxes.. Hence why European parliament gather every few weeks.
Just were negotiating outside rather than inside, we've already seen some benefits (Vaccinations) and some drawbacks (Border trade) in the first few weeks of it

Just out of interest, are you in an age group that is likely to be vaccinated soon ?
If so, that's good news for you. But just take a moment to think of those poor people living under the jurisdiction of such an unwieldy organisation as the EU.

My mother is , she's getting hers in hospital and I am likely to get one soon
But if I have to wait then so be it
Clearly you are of a right voting leaning and I think its fair to assume that you voted for Brexit , given your claim about its unwieldy nature
Good luck both with getting a jab and being part of the brexit generation

Re: For those who voted 'to get Brexit done'
Huge assumption being made is that the EU will still be around in 50 years
We have seen over the last few years different EU countries wanting more for themselves and less willing to help out the poorer countries
During the first few months of the pandemic Italy and Spain were given very little support when they needed it most
The richer EU countries are unwilling to commit to combined EU debt bonds to help “bail out” poorer EU nations
The problems the EU as a whole are having with vaccinations
Don’t forget that the EU has just lost one of its biggest net contributors meaning other countries are going to have to pay extra to plug this gap
Creaking at the seems at present and won’t survive if another one or two countries vote to leave

Brexit did not mean that vaccine approvals could be done any quicker.

If Greece is not out of the EU in the next 10 years I will be extremely surprised.
Then it'll be the case of how Germany and France clean up after it.

I doubt any other country will have watched the way we went about Brexit and thought "We'll have a bit of that."

Net favourability of the EU has increased significantly in all EU countries since Brexit.
I also don't think that Greece leaving would bring the whole thing crashing down somehow.

Germany, France, The Netherlands and Italy all had a preliminary supply agreement with Astrazeneca last June but the EU insisted on dealing with them on on behalf of the bloc.

Its done
And by god we really have been done
The UK finance sector and investment banking advice was a major employer . Now UK based banks are no longer able to advise European business
Wealth , taxable income all pissed away to Germany etc
Rule Brittania
This is just the start
Its all very well saying live with it but its going to feck everyone up the arse
Switch the lights off

Get your head out of the sand Sludge and take a more objective view of your beloved EU. Come back when you've had a chance to digest the facts and present a more cogent argument.

Wealth , taxable income all pissed away to Germany etc Same answer as above
Rule Brittania
This is just the start
Its all very well saying live with it but I think its going to feck everyone up the arse your opinion.
Switch the lights off
You're wasting your breath and you time sludge. Why don't you employ it on something you can actually help to effect?

The country has made a decision
But its going to feck us
Twenty percent drop in trade this quarter predicted
If a business does everything online thats fine but many jobs are going to be lost
The economists almost overwhelmingly said it would be stupid to leave the EU
The brexit crew rolled out that far right pillock from cardiff University, Midford, a former advisor to Thatcher
We have dived into a sea of glass
UK financial sector , a huge generator of taxable income and jobs ?
Thats going to be losing influence to Germany
Goods from China, our main supplier , come through Europe, more expensive to get in
And goods from Europe itself ? More expensive to get in
Still we have a new deal with Japan, even though we have one already
This is just the beginning
Enjoy the ride

the opinion of the vast majority of respected economists
Sir Patrick Midford doesn't count , he's in the John redwood camp

Why don't you get out of the habit of stating something as fact when it is only your opinion. Nothing can be fact if it hasn't yet happened.
Any country outside the EU that has a trade agreement with it will/have set up a continuity agreement with UK. These things have been being arranged for a year. Why do you say that anything from China must come though the UK? Have the bullied China into not trading with us, like the tried to bully the vaccine companies to divert our vaccine supply?

That could be true but what replaces the EU will probably be an improvement, we have voted for something that we can be almost certain is tangibly worse.
