Why? Our lives would be enhanced , not ended, by rejoining! We will rejoin. In what way and when are open questions but not if. The young understand why. They want it. They already outnumber those who don’t. They aren’t wedded to outdated visions of Britain’s place in the world. I want to live in a democracy where I can elect the people that make the laws that govern me.

No, because you miss the biggest costs of all. These wil be the need to develop and regulate every aspect of life ourselves, rather than simply transferring those developed centrally into UK law. Such costs are enormous. Not only in their preparation but in the subsequent oversight. That extends to businesses whenever there is a variance with other regulatory regimes, as would inevitability hapen with the EU. These are hidden costs at the moment but they need to be brought into the light so informed judgements can be made. They could though be avoided if we maintain regulatory alignment with the EU but that would cost. It all depends on what these regulations are. I believe the EU has announced that phone charges will be one standard size much to the annoyance of companies like Apple. It makes perfect sense to us consumers I have a drawer full of different types. I can't see why the UK would not follow suit with the EU on that. Most of the objections to EU regulations are related not to business but to social policy e.g. working time directive. As the EU is largely socialist in outlook this often jarred with a UK Tory government.

And they are good reasons but it does seem we are getting more in their 20s and 30s. People I regard as part of the younger generation. It’s always easy to poke fun at the ridiculous, whatever it’s source but there is huge merit in being awake to needed change, rather than asleep and unaware of it. So you understand why people here poke fun at you, that's good self awareness
Responsibility Deficit Disorder is a medical condition. Symptoms include inability to be corrected when wrong, false sense of superiority, desire to share personal info no else cares about, general hubris. It's a medical issue rather than pure arrogance. |

New SNP leader pulls no punches over brexit. Stephen Flynn branded Brexit as being an "unmitigated disaster" during his interview with Laura Kuenssberg. "We're in this situation because Boris Johnson lied," he said, promoting Kuenssberg to remark that it is "quite the charge." The SNP Westminster leader elaborated that the former prime minister had claimed his deal was "oven ready" with "no issues." He said export issues businesses are facing and the public sector's difficulties recruiting staff are down to Brexit. "That's why 72 per cent of people in Scotland want to rejoin the European Union. That's where Scotland's future lies."

EU membership is good for disadvantaged kips like Greenock & Paisley. The EU is bad for posh places in England, like Winchester. The EU is committed to march Eastward and absorb some of the poorest countries in Europe....opening up their labour markets to unlimited travel.

The SNP is a joke party that relies entirely on a warped form of Nationalism that wants to separate from England and yet wants to be controlled from Belgium. It is the politics of the dim wit.

The vast majority of the problems blamed on Brexit are entirely due to the inflexibility and unreasonableness of the undemocratic, racketeering, EU.

There are only two things wrong with the mainly elderly non-productive brexit generation. Everything they do, and everything they say. They have the unfortunate advantage of being wrong, all the time. The slide in the economy in particular is not going to get better because they say so, without any evidence. The media now a chat room for failed conservatives, hide, squirm, avoid wriggle at the thought of having to mention the dreaded b-word. A grotesque mis-calculation, worse than Suez. Leave in haste, now repent at leisure. Soon Brits will be casting envious eyes at Le Continent, as they did before, poorer and backward as we are becoming. The three major powers in the world, the United States, China and the EU, will carve up what growth there is, as we have seen in the Truss experiment, the UK does not even have control of its own economy.

Why do you live here? Why don't you take to a dingy and flee to the EU Utopia?
