What we absolutely flat out cannot afford is a UK satellite navigation system. On top of more and more money for everything the opinion polls suggest might make a difference to BJ's prospects.

We won't need to.

We will piggy back off Galileo or threaten that if it breaks we won't fix it for them

Just what do you mean by piggy backing off Galileo? What do you really mean by that?
I mean exactly that.

We will use the system we have built because we will maintain it.

Don't let your hatred blind you.

That tech is ours. The patent may be EU. But infrastructure is ours.

So just how does "using Galileo" differ from "piggy backing off Galileo"? That is what you have not explained.

Rubbish, we couldn't even launch the satellites.

Imagine a tube under the Ocean. A giant magnetic tube. Getting from Cornwall to new York in three hours. Minimum emissions. Total comfort and safety.
No chance, the Atlantic sits on two tectonic plates, separated by an expanding slit of molten lava, America and Europe continuously moving slowly apart.

You guys!

The tube would be in stasis. Tectonic plates are irrelevant unless there is a major catastrophe.

We would launch. Although we don't need to just yet from our space ports in Cornwall and near the island of Islay.

Have some faith brothers.

Glad I didn't have to cut Laura's piece tonight.

As much as I can't abide Johnson I find Corbyn so unelectable it sickens me.

My vote matters not where I live. But that may change when I move to my Brexit house.

I would still vote Labour though. Unless there. Is an independent that could win.

Ireland
It's a horrible thing for me to say. Especially as I've spent so much time in northern Ireland but I wish it was just Ireland or all of it was UK.

Northern Ireland is distinct though. Very different from Ireland. Well Belfast is compared to Dublin.

Come and join us. **** of the EU. We will look after you. You are more similar to us than Belgium or Italy.
A tempting offer, but methinks we will pass. Seriously there is an assumption that because we speak the same language, that the Irish are little englanders . Its not at all true. If there is any affinity with UK people it might be closer to Northumbria than elsewhere..

Prepare to regret buying your Brexit house then. You have worked hard, you have saved, you have a home, you must be punished for showing financial responsibility.

Rid yourself of any thought of making sacrifices so that You can privately educate your children. Private schools will be confiscated by the state and reduced to a single, below average, bland uniform system for all.

Prepare to have your state pension stolen and gifted to layabout scum.

Anticipate being refused life saving medical treatment after the NHS is opened for business across the entire globe. As yours or a loved ones life ebbs away due to insufficient funds to save you / them, you can watch non-contributing “visitors” eagerly hoovering up the fruits of your efforts.
