Farage CANNOT let Brexit be overruled especially after that speech he had for Brussels.

Freedom of movement ain't happening. The people won't accept that deal. Some of your lot are gonna try it but there are ways around this still. Even Corbyns changed his mind now and said he will vote to Trigger it unconditionally.

Corbyns always been a eurosceptic

Please let this happen.

dunno where he thinks he'll get 100.000, he'd be lucky to get 10.000

biggest recent march was in 2011 against austerity, biggest before that was 50.000 until you go all the way back to 2003 for the march against iraq.

I'd love to see a mob of 10,000 led by Farage, fucking hell imagine how epic that'd be. They should have done it during the Million Mask March. Far right vs far left.

Seen it in the news a few days ago. He supposedly said in a media report that Labour wouldn't go along with Article 50 unless they got this and that guaranteed. But then he was quoted as saying after that that he would vote for Article 50 unconditionally. So they were saying he backtracked quickly.

Farage isn't even Far Right. You seem to have a negative opinion of anyone you disagree with as being a Neo Nazi Dub.

If he can push the whole "a bunch of left wing, metropolitan elites from That London are trying to stop our Brexit" angle I'm sure he can piss more than enough people to jump in the march. Especially from them Northern firmly pro-Brexit towns.

Imagine a bunch of pissed off mutants from Burnley, Runcorn, Sunderland and them places marching through central London like

Needs to happen.

Considering India called it peanuts compared to their £70 Billion welfare bill and are desperate to have more of their people coming to study in the UK I'd guess they don't really give a toss about the aid money.

UK public finances to be '£25bn worse off' by 2020

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-37902922

The prospects for the UK's public finances have deteriorated by £25bn since the March Budget, an influential think tank has warned.

 

yay

Something to cheer some of you up on this glorious day? http://www.msn.com/en-gb/news/uknews/european-parliament-considers-plan-to-let-individual-brits-opt-in-to-keep-their-eu-citizenship/ar-AAk3yZb?li=AAdeCd7&ocid=spartandhp

[Gambino]

Not really. Boris telling it how it is, stop forgetting the surplus in trade between us. We buy a lot more from them than we sell. Italian Minister is pissed because he knows Boris is right. Plus the EU are now being shadowed by Trump 

And once again feel free to attempt to explain to me why we can't trade without having open borders. Been asking for weeks and not getting an answer from anyone besides "Cuz the EU said so".

[QPR Dee]

we can trade without having open borders, that was never an issue, trade will continue as it has since the dawn of humanity

the issue is the tariffs that may be imposed and free movement of goods within the EU without being stopped at borders, if it gets to that.

but no one has a fucking clue whats going to happen because they're all just winging it

'we buy more from them' means nothing when the avenues for said products are restricted and/or become more expensive and are clogged up at the ports. we are where we are due to the channels we have to receive and send goods freely within the EU, who's to know how businesses/consumers will adapt to whatever change Theresa May comes with

[Gambino]

"We can trade without open borders" Say no more.

We buy more from them means a lot. It means they have more to lose than us, hence the ball being in our court. They can't dictate to us that they won't do free trade unless we accept free movement, because they will be shooting themselves in the foot purely for no other reason than them to be assholes because they are pissed the British just ruined their little European Superstate dream.

lol @ this being put at risk.

 

I said before this is all going to end around a table, with everyone eating a lot of humble pie, and going with with a series of L's.

I wasn't for Brexit but it's here and support it as I would staying in the EU.

Only thing that gets me is there not seemingly being a plan in place and everyone running off (Farage & Johnson).

 

 

[dub]

Just the way they like it 

[Gambino]

And is this all based on a pessimistic outlook considering they haven't even decided on what deal happens with the EU let alone what gets made with other countries.

Averages wages will still be lower in 2021 than they were in 2008 after a disastrous decade of Tory rule, the report by the respected Institute for Fiscal Studies reveals

 

Tory life, we all know who's winning and who's losing

funny thing is that nothing changes drastically with the other parties, they win the next election easily aswell.

Why is it in the Brexit thread then...
