    Brexit, for once some facts.

    If Theresa May agrees to stay in the Customs Union,it may be her best option. Labour would vote for such a deal,TM could whip the Tories to vote for such a deal which should give 500 plus votes. The 80 Tory bastards plus a few Labour would only be 85 against. Also Scotland would not find it easy...

    Unfortunately a lot of 'oldies' really like JRM. Personally I think he was the fascist with the cigarettes,I dont trust him. Dont forget he must have made a fortune when the £ plummeted on referendum night...all his wealth is held in US dollars!!! KudosDave

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    The Tories are too cosy with the likes of Amazon and E-Bay,they keep the employment numbers looking good. The solution is as you say a turnover tax which is discountable by corporation tax....that way honest tax paying businesses should not be clobbered twice. The tax charge would be easy but...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    May also disowned the “Irish backstop” that she herself had agreed with the EU last December. The backstop provides, in effect, for Northern Ireland to stay in the EU customs unions and single market in the event of Great Britain leaving them at the end of the Brexit implementation period in...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Back from my holiday....so 'nothing has changed',except it now seems more divided than before. I was surprised to read that 2/3 rds of Labour voters would vote Remain,in a second ref. Its surprising that Corbyn isnt going more strongly for a second ref,he isnt going to get a GE.. I thought JRM...

    Have you ever been to Thessaloniki,I wish U.K. cities were as buoyant. Lots of students,they don’t appear to be suffering under high student fees. The new motorway from Athens to Thessaloniki is one of the best built roads,maybe the Greeks have learnt how to milk the EU, KudosDave

    They are talking about all the extra customs work for UK to EU trade. In all honesty it is not that much extra work for the shipper....the invoice we raise is different in that it has the commodity codes alongside every line of the invoice...most businesses that ship already to the world outside...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    A Sky Data study conducted from 17-20 August - just before the no-deal papers were published - shows a growing negative shift in opinion about the way the negotiations are going. Some 69% now believe we will get a bad deal, as opposed to 37% in March this year. Six out of 10 people think...

    Join up St Pancras and Euston stations and cut 30 mins off journey times to the north,its only 500 metres of track. Yet we carve up the countryside,to build HS2, to save 10 mins London to Birmingham. Anyone who travels on the current line knows it is very fast. KudosDave

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    One of Theresa May's soundbites is NO DEAL IS BETTER THAN A BAD DEAL, my wife asked me this morning what deal would be worse than no deal,I struggled to find details that could make a bad deal worse than no deal-members suggestions most welcome. KudosDave

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    It's clear from the documents that although officials think a no deal would be difficult for the British mainland, it might be impossible for Northern Ireland. Each section ends with the same set of paragraphs essentially saying that it isn't clear how these new regimes could operate in Northern...

    Once the UK leaves the EU and is operating an independent trade remedies framework, UK businesses will be able to apply to the TRA directly if they believe they are being injured by the effects of unfair trade practices or surges in imports. Those making the application will need to demonstrate...

    If we fall out of the EU with no deal,does that mean that the EU anti dumping tariffs will all be scrapped on April 1 ? I realise that part of May's Chequers deal is to sign up to the common rule book which would undoubtedly include EU tariffs but if we crash out then we have left so no more EU...

    I think there are a lot of Brexiters who still support Brexit because thats what they voted for but now have no logical reason to support Brexit except that was what they voted for. It's sort of sheep like....'lets go into the field next door'.....'but the grass is greener in this...
