Post Brexit Agriculture

Well let's face it the UK has never been short on vested interests has it.  If ministers keep trotting out the same tired line saying the people voted for Brexit as though everyone did I'm sure I'll end up kicking the 'telly'.  

It was won by a small margin, so hardly a ringing endorsement for full blown Brexit.

Faust

It was a referendum and the vote "even if it it is by one only one vote"  went for out.

Get over it.

IronGiant

What like those who never agreed with the 74 referendum result?  Many of those people have spent the rest of their careers trying to get us out, especially the Tories.  

If they never accepted the result then why do you think the present day remainers are going to be any different?

Faust

It's not 1974 or June 2016, time to move on...

IronGiant

You mean just like Redwood, IDS, Cash, Fox, Bone, et-al did?

If you think this is all going to go away then I'm afraid you are in for one hell of as surprise, especially if the economy isn't booming within a short period after leaving.  I also suspect that as immigration continues to rise (which it surely will in or out) then those who voted to leave will become pretty discontented.

Faust

Brexit isn't going away, it's going to happen.

For better or worse.

The Dude

It may well happen in some form.  However, I also think that at some point in the future it will be reversed when we realise the grass isn't as green on the other side as we were led to believe it will be.

You do realise that 'reversing brexit' is also known as 'Applying to join the EU and adopt the Euro' ?

Faust

Assuming of course 'we' are not as naive as what you make out.

Faust

I can only say what I think may well happen, simply an opinion.

I genuinely think the UK leaving the EU will make the world a more dangerous place.  The very last thing we want to see is a destabilised Europe.  Since the EU was formed Europe has seen the longest period of peace in over a thousand years.

I really don't want to see our children and grandchildren back fighting in Europe - do you?
