Money is moving in the direction of recession future proofing and we should not worry?

Originally posted by Cucking Funt Interesting point you raise there as 'poove' can also be used as a singular form. I'm guessing there's no right answer. It's sure to be something that'll be hotly debated in the years to come. I'd say a poof is probably just a bloke likes a bit of other male bum (perfectly normal and accepted in society). A poove is probably one that talks like Alan Carr and says "OMG" when they see scatter cushions. Fair game for hate crime I say.

I notice that none of the leadership contenders have yet had the honesty to state that the very moment we leave the EU to default to WTO rules. You can't transition out of it. We default to WTO trading from the moment we enact article 50 'until' we have a new rule in place - which will be years. That will instantly elevate tarrifs and create other barriers. Even if we get a deal together in two year which in trade terms seems unlikely, very significant damage will be done to the country during that period. To make matters worse even our WTO access is based on our EU membership. "The head of the WTO has stated that it is likely the UK will have to renegotiate the terms of its WTO membership, as at least some members will not be happy to simply allow UK membership to continue." so we'll get screwed by the rest of the world too but just the EU. An interesting phase by phase take on what the next few years might have in hold for us [Link] Edited by blackpalacefan (01 Jul 2016 4.55pm)

Originally posted by OknotOK I think she'll kick the can a long way down the road. She's already said she will not trigger article 50 this year. So we'll get into next year and negotiations (formal or informal) will continue. And we'll get to the stage where we agree an EEA model allowing free movement of goods, services, capital, and people plus a slightly reduced contribution. Then finally we'll leave and people will barely notice the difference. Businesses will be materially unaffected. And the only people "worse off" will be the electorate who will have to deal with all of the rules and regulations and freedoms of the EU, but with none of the say at the negotiating table. When did she say she will not trigger article 50 this year? Did she say it in her presentation yesterday or last night or today? If this is true then she's going to infuriate a lot of people after being elected PM by the Tory party membership. Stalling till after a General Election may satisfy some but it's unlikely to help our aims, especially when the Tories will win whatever. Does she want the mandate and less blame rather than no mandate and a better hand and conditions by any chance? COYP

I may have misheard him though.

Does she want the mandate and less blame rather than no mandate and a better hand and conditions by any chance? The moment we leave, we're back to WTO rules which will instantly be very damaging to many of our industries. The WTO tarrifs are also likely to be worse than they are already and require renegotiation because they too are connected to our EU membership. If she has said this, it's very sensible as there is an awful lot to unpick and work out to the point where just starting the countdown ASAP and 'seeing what happens' isn't a responsible or intelligent plan. Let a new leader of a new government find their feet because it's a momumental task that is likely to be damaging economically at least however it pans out. We don't even have a team together to try to negotiate the deal. The sensible move you could argue is to wait and wait and wait until the EU offers some assurances. Legally that is difficult as we can't form a new agreement while in this one, but one of the few strengths we have is that we haven't left yet. They don't want us to 'leave now' for our own health.
