Dont be daft. Do you really think that people from developed Commonwealth countries will be encouraged to come here to pick fruit in the fields or do warehousing jobs and then find they cant get a house to live in?

No that is something that exists in your mind only.

Considering the demographics are not in favour of that especially with Facebook then I dont think so.

You must be living on a different planet.

 

The vast majority of commonwealth citizens live in undeveloped and underdeveloped countries.

If there were no backstop in force how and where and when would duty be paid on our exports to the EU after we left the EU?

Perhaps they still haven't got the message that many have been articulating - that a no deal Brexit would be catastrophic.

 

Most of us will never change our minds about Brexit no matter what happens – our brains simply can't

That assumption makes no economical sense whatsoever.

It does if the countries that are now supplying the cheap labour develop their economies to such an extent that jobs are plentiful which will mean looking outside for work and being used for cheap labour becomes a lot less. It was about what could happen in the future and not now as a consequence of brexit.

When was this posed? I must have missed it, because it's easily answered: less labour chases the work, making labour more expensive, whereby those economies lose competitivity to those economies that still use cheap labour.

Post 1052 but posed slightly different. Quote:

 

"What happens when the newer members economies start growing enough that jobs in those countries are no longer scarce and the people in those countries dont have to go elsewhere for a job. Just where will the developed economies then get their cheap labour from?"

It is shocking. 

Last week's Question Time on the BBC from Derby, when, I think it was Isobel Oakshott spoke in favour of a no deal Brexit, should there be no consensus achieved. The audience erupted in cheers and applause!

This from a city that has a number of large employers in the manufacturing  sector. 

Perhaps they still haven't got the message that many have been articulating - that a no deal Brexit would be catastrophic.

The working class still haven't got the message that rich establishment Remainers have been articulating from Davos with their £billionaire friends. Roland Rudd, Chairman of the 'People's Vote' campaign, has been articulating the need for the rich to steal the votes of the poor live from the World Economic Forum.

 

To the Remainer establishment elite the only kind of people that matter are rich people. The Leave voters, all 17.4 million of them, aren't even people to the rich who attend Davos.

That is debatable and in any case I did state "developed Commonwealth countries" and not underdeveloped countries.

Am I missing something? If no consensus is achieved then we have no choice but to leave with no deal. 

If there is a second referendum then the question has to be Deal (the one that's been negotiated) or No Deal. Some jokers are saying that Remain should be on the ballot but that option has already lost.

It should have needed a 60% vote to overturn the status quo but Cameron missed a trick there.

Only in the eyes of Remoaners . Anything other than No Deal does NOT see us leave the EU.

What of it?

 

When British soldiers are on UN exercises and peacekeeping missions they wear blue UN berets.

 

I say again, so what? Who cares?

Not the same thing at all and you know it. The creation of an EU army, something that Europhiles have always denied and called Euro-sceptics paranoid for bringing up, is a natural part of the creation of an EU super state, and as ever with the EU it is introduced quietly...when were the British people consulted on this??

 

The EU wants to be in a place where it can defend itself and the US can remove its bases (taking their influence over European affairs with them).

 

On one level this is to be welcomed, Europe should be able to defend itself without the US, but this puts the UK in an awkward position; we highly value the North Atlantic alliance with ourselves and the US and don't want to undermine that by being in an EU army.

Proof that when demanding a second referendum, people should be careful what they wish for, or they might get the 'wrong' answer again 

[tzijlstra 11]

Here is an interesting question for Brexiteers opposed to a second referendum - if the result had swung the other way (with the same margin) would you have demanded another referendum now or in the near future?

 

Answer honestly and critically please!
