[Politics] Brexit

[theonlymikey]

Not if the pledge to allow certain non-UK born citizens to stay, grants certain rights to them, which it would have to.

Why are people so alarmist about doomsday approaching?!

''people will die''

No, they won't, not any more than would have done.

''people won't be able to stay here and work & live''.

No, that won't happen either.

''we won't be able to trade''.

We certainly will. Boris may be lots of things but he's not stupid and the Country will definitely be able to trade.

''the sky will fall in''.

Nope.

But he hasn't pledged this. He was urged but has refused.

Lady seagull won't even acknowledge that Johnson has refused to pledge legal rights to EU citizens.

If they have already got settled status, then there is nothing to worry about. Hardly going to kick people out.

The thread to end all threads 9335 pages and counting, so I was thinking how long until it hits the 10,000 page mark? for me the way it's going I fancy it will get there before Boris drops us through the trap door at the end of October.

I'm only on page 2278. You need to adjust your 'posts per page' to 40 in the Settings...

What do Leavers think of removing the rights of UK residents to live, study and travel as freely around the EU as we do now?

Seriously.

The same as EU members not having the right to walk into this country, works both ways

So you're happy with voting to remove the rights and freedoms of the young people of this country?

If the choice was remain or no deal then I'd vote no deal. I'd prefer a deal though, but a good one not the shit May came up with.

If we leave with no deal the position is unsustainable and our leverage and reputation will be reduced even further, so what constitutes a good deal/withdrawal agreement arising from that very weak, desperate position? Or is it just full steam ahead with being Donald Trump and John Bolton's Poodle?

 

[Pretty pink fairy]

Exactly!

But still paying the EU for the pleasure ?

Please don't make me regret asking this, but how would we paying?

I think you're reading too much into it. I'm perfectly confident in my decision and would make the same one again. It's just amusing watching remainers come up with loads of reasons not to leave that should have been in the remain campaign as they realise they could probably have won had they bothered to campaign on the positives of staying in rather than the negatives of leaving. It gets even more amusing the closer we get to leaving.

I'd believe you if you merely popped in every now and again. I don't come on here much anymore but whenever I do, you are all over the thread, in the thick of it all. So your explanation has a hollow ring to it. If I had "won" the referendum there are about a million better ways I could think to spend my time. Hey ho.

It seems only 19% now want a * No Deal - No Meal * Brexit.

For heaven's sake strike a deal, man.

I have seen several stories of EU citizens already turned down for settled status, despite having married here, worked here for 27 years, got an NI number so proving their tax and contributions. There aren't enough civil servants to deal with all the extra paperwork, and it is a mess.

Do we know the status of these people now? Like everything, we also need to put things in to perspective here. That's a few instances out of how many millions? If you process that many people there are bound to be question marks. No system is perfect.

I was in a work meeting. Are you retired? It would explain a lot if you are. You've done your travelling, had your time enjoying the EU and now wish to shut shop.

Eff those pesky kids, how dare they have aspirations outside of this tiny island.

He's not retired. He lives on benefits. He lives a pretty empty life, lurching from giro to giro. Hence why he isn't too fussed if we crash out. He is under the false impression that life couldn't get any harder for him. He's in for quite a nasty surprise.
