I've asked Leavers for benefits of leaving the EU. I have never had a coherent answer.

I am prepared to post the benefits of being in the EU. Here is just two I found today.

The problem with the Swiss bi-lateral agreements is they've taken decades to evolve and end up where they are with them as things stand today and as pointed out above, we're still liable for the £39 Billion. The unintended scraps thrown our way from The EU's contingencies are not nearly enough for us to properly function and the longer we attempt to stick it out, the more damage and bad blood caused, the more the ill-feeling there will be toward us. Never mind the internal domestic existential and constitutional fires that will break out, perhaps quite literally in the case of Northern Ireland, not to mention Scotland. Aside from the triumph of the pre-announced procession of 90 lorries and a dustcart down the M20 on a Monday morning in January and a clapped out dredger bobbling about doing nothing off Ramsgate, The EU know we're not prepared on our side in the slightest and the figure of '3 weeks' is unchanged as far I know from when I last read it as to how long they're assuming we'll last if no deal happens.

Yes, I am not expecting us to stick it out long enough to get started either, but if we do, that's where we would logically end up, eventually.

In regards of that second post, my brother has severe learning difficulties, and our system not the EU's found him a support worker, who in turn found him a job. He has remained in this job for about 10 years.

The Shaw Trust, FUNDED by EU grant, helped him. Did you not choose to read that part?

Seems certain MPs are still using the same tired lines

Preparing for a no deal is the best way to get a good deal

Do they not realise they have TV in Europe?

Really doesn’t work if you are telling everyone the tactic.

I think the EU may have been just a little ahead of us on the bluff 'no deal' tactic, when we didn't bother building any customs posts in NI, didn't build any lorry parks at our ports, didn't put out any tenders for IT Infrastructure and Systems to be built and specified to run our new WTO processes and didn't start the massive recruitment campaign for HMRC.

And, I understand, the dredger for 2 days and the 80 lorries and a dustcart down the M20 didn't fool them either (who would have guessed).

But who knows, maybe if we tell them we REALLY mean it this time :facepalm:

You can certainly tell that remainers post all day! You have jobs you individuals? Leavers arrive at night suggesting they work!
