Starmer is about to reverse Brexit

[TheQuirkyMaker]

Is is right that an unpopular govt can reverse the democratic wishes of the UK to have nothing to do with Europe?

Just popping in with a friendly reminder that Games Workshop, the company that does Dungeons and Dragons figures, has more revenue than the UK fishing industry.

No he's not don't be ridiculous.
I dislike Starmer but the approach to Europe is one of the things I feel most positively about. He seems to be attempting to get the best out of our relationship with Europe.
You honestly sound dumb as two planks.
He's not reversing brevity and we can't completely turn our backs on the EU despite not being part of it because we greatly rely on having a good relationship with it. If we didn't we'd be up shit creek and everyone would suffer..
Which I suppose people like you would just blame on immigration or something..

They've said negotiations on that will follow - the deal acknowledges the issue.

This is embarrassing drivel even for you.

What an appalling comment.

He can't do anything about Brexit and even if the UK voted to re-join in another referendum, it would take years and the EU might not even take us back!

But Europe is a big trading partner and getting the best trade deals possible with the EU is important.

'In 2023, the UK fishing fleet's revenue from landings reached £1.1 billion, with a total catch of 719 thousand tonnes. This represented an increase of 5% in value compared to 2022, mainly driven by an 12% increase in the quantity of fish landed, though some of these were lower value fish. '

Games Workshop must be doing well.

He’s not. He’s about to give the EU many if the benefits of U.K. membership of the EU, without giving the U.K. any if the benefits of EU membership. It’s utterly pig headed.

What utter bilge!

I'm excited to hear Viviennemary's explanation of how Brexit has been reversed!

He isn’t rejoining the EU and even if he were he wouldn’t be going against Brexit. The ballot didn’t say “Leave and never rejoin” it just said “Leave”

The UK has left the EU

There is nothing immoral about changing its mind and rejoining.

Eurovision is nothing to do with the EU. Only utter numpties believe it is.

1. No it doesn't
2. GW has nothing to do with dungeons and dragons

Perhaps it means being part of European Free Trade Area like Switzerland or Norway. So a part of the marketplace and therefore subject to the rules on products and foods but not a full EU member.

I didn’t vote for Brecht but I assumed this would be the deal struck at exit. It sort of seems like a sensible middle ground.

I'm excited because it means I can spend more time in Europe with my rellies without having to laboriously count days so I don't go over (huge fines if you do, and banned from Schengen countries for between one and two years)

I didn’t vote for Brecht

Agreed. Beckett is much more accessible

😅Sorry, couldn't resist.

How so? Can you elaborate?

I quite enjoy Sartre, especially Le Diable et le Bon Dieu. But that could be too European.

Oh,I agree that it would be hugely better if Brexit had never happened. As I said, this only benefit , and I concede this is only a possible benefit to leisure travellers who may like them as a souvenir, against which shouldn't set massive damage to many individuals and industries. I don't know a single person has benefited from Brexit, though a few must exist, but I do know people whose businesses have been very badly affected.
Egate queues at Heathrow T2 were massive last Thursday and people were being directed to the manned positions that had about a dozen customers so it may not necessarily be a benefit. I always get through at places like Stockholm and Helsinki in less than 5 minutes even with stamping.

This is true. Eurovision banned the EU flag.

But it is not even blue!
It is so dark that it looks like black...

Apart from the benefits of being able to sell food and drink and plants to the EU without paperwork or checks?

He’s not. He’s about to give the EU many if the benefits of U.K. membership of the EU, without giving the U.K. any if the benefits of EU membership. It’s utterly pig headed.
Really, we can sell to European countries, access is going to be easier over time. We will have a revenue stream, Erasmus is restarting. And as an added benefit we’re sorting out some joint secure.
If you’re to daft to realise that Putin would not have made the moves he has without Brexit; so essentially he’s made a safer place for us. May not be as safe as we want but we’re thanks to this, we’re working toward it. So yes, there are some benefits.
