EU - we don't need you - get out.

You sound like a complete and utter mug.

gee you hurt my heart? who hurt you?

its a sign they wont be playing ball when it comes to tariffs.

also they have to take a hard line stance to send a message out to other nations thinking of quitting.
perfectly understandable.

The EU is working so well it has to threaten it's members to stop them leaving

You can't get rid of bureaucrats by voting leave sorry you have been misled we will now need an army of bureaucrats to untangle us from the E.U...

lame argument....they didnt threaten us.

maybe they looked at our 1.4 billion a week deficit and high debt and thought it was better to reduce the risk of having to bail us out?

what's to untangle - put a motion forward to keep all the EU laws as they stand until new laws can replace them. one by one?

You said they needed to 'send out a message' to other countries to stop them leaving.

What's that if it's not an implicit threat?

your the one mentioning threat....id call it an indication of what will happen after.

"your not one of us now" so why should they bend over backwards to help us?

Like the EU could do anything swiftly and efficiently, they can only do things every 3 or 6 months. No doubt they will need a meeting to find out if they can arrange a meeting of member states.

id take that minor hassle if it meant better financial security and wellbeing for our country

EU economy is tanking. ECB base rate at 0.00%.

EU answer to improve things = put trade barriers up with the UK

Leaving positions to one side:

From an EU perspective they understandably don't want the uncertainty of UK "hanging around" and will want to rush the UK (England?) out the door.

The UK obviously haven't figured out what it actually means to leave in terms of laws, economic agreements etc - internal issues with Scotland, N.Ireland (even Wales wants a seat at negotiations) - they will want to drag it out as long as possible and have a longer stabilising period.

Good viewing.

problem with uncertainty is businesses dont like it.
problem with going completely solo is it will mean a long time of uncertainty because threreare  alot of trade deals which need negotiating.

think we will opt into another trade scheme and end up paying higher tarrifs if the eu decide we are only getting 2 years ...more likely if they think we are stalling

Uncertainty means low investment as money is parked in safer havens..

Has some real effects pretty quickly.

Businesses don't like to "hang around" like politicians may do.

I work for a large US Financial Company/Bank. Mail straight away yesterday morning. Paragraph 1 - assuring all staff of commitment to UK. But then Paragraph 2 - as they are a EU legal entity (as most of big US firms in Europe are) - some roles will have to move, this will be detailed by end of July and timeframes in place.

Not even waiting for the actual exit in 2-3-4 years time.

The debate was framed in very simplistic terms perhaps a little too simplistic..

there is no logic in political thinking

Apparently yesterday the most googled term from Britain was "What's the E.U?"

I am very very angry - have you any idea of the impact this will have on the price of importing claret for my cellar

which unfortunately is flooded because of brexit - we were warned of the floods if we left!!
I was knee deep in water rescuing my cars at 1 am during the vote declarations

REMAIN were right about one thing at least - heavens did open!!!
