We have a year to get something sorted, why does everything have to revolve around destroying something we have stepped away from. We are out walk away stop trying to faff about with something we are not going to be connected to. Want obscene, why did Farage only go to one fisheries meeting out of 40 (apologies if it is not numerically correct but it was that ballpark) when he should have been at the majority?

Retsdon Posted February 1, 2020 Report Share Posted February 1, 2020 None of it matters. It's done now. Although I think some people are forgetting that for all practical commercial purposes Britain is still in the EU until the end of the year. The proof of the pudding will come later when we see what sort of trading arrangements the country finishes up with. And that's not just with the EU, but with all the other 3rd party countries with whom our current trading relations are derived from EU negotiated agreements. Sure, over the last few months the government have signed continuity agreements to roll these EU agreements over, but they're not formal treaties and have sunset clauses built in that will kick in once we leave the Single Market. There's a lot of talk about a US trade deal but a) it certainly won't replace the Single Market and b) the US is a hard market to break into (different states, different laws), and being one of its junior acolytes is no picnic. It looks after itself first. Just ask any country south of the Rio Grande. What's worrying at this point is that while there's a lot of aspirational talk there doesn't seem to be much of a plan whereas the EU has already mapped out 4 distinct outcomes that -depending on Britains expectations- it is prepared to accept. They've even mapped out the timetable and agenda to get an agreement before Boris's deadline - 10 negotiation teams working concurrently. Can Britain even field 10 negotiation teams? The Brexit damage was always unlikely be some massive crisis because that would be in nobody's interest. Far more likely is death by a thousand cuts in asymmetrical negotiations with more experienced and much stronger globally experienced opponents.

Looking forward to a great deal on fish. I am rather partial to most fish and now we are out we can look forward to prices coming down and increasing choice. On the contrary, it's the Remoaners that are still crying, despite most of their predictions and fears being proved wrong that need to move on. I'm looking forwards to being part of a positive, strong, independent nation again, as are the majority of the country.

I don't know what job you have or last had but if I only went to 2% of the fires or RTA's would you be happy with my performance as a public servant? If chose not to turn out to action stations alongside my oppos in the RN would I expect to be be treated as a law breaker for not doing my duty would my oppos be happy with me?
