Getting ready for Brexit.

Hi

Well the EU have at last woken up to the fact that we are likely to leave.

http://uk.reuters.com/article/uk-bri...0YG2LD?rpc=401

They are getting their act together ready for the result and holding their first set of meetings without the UK.

The Bank of England has built up a massive fund to make sure there is a not a disaster, but they are independent of the Government.

Interesting times and given Camerons known lack of negotiating success with the EU we need a very strong team, with a brief, to get things moving.

Much as I would like to leave the EU I very much doubt it will happen. I think the government's scare tactics will work on the undecided.

You'd better hope so if you value your pension.

Re: Getting ready for Brexit.

I agree that if we do vote to leave we will need a team other than the incumbents to forge our new path. Dopey Dave et al certainly won't want to do us any favours.....

Re: Getting ready for Brexit.

Get rid of the EU.

Get rid of the established parties.

Get rid of Royalty.

Start again with proportional representation.

Elected second chamber.

Would be a nice start.

Hi

Would be even better if we managed to get all the Bedlingtons home from foreign parts down south.

Exclusive - EU launches contingency talks for Brexit vote:
More likely they are plotting how to waste more of our money and to expand the united states of the EU when people chicken out and we lose the vote to leave .

Oh don't, Meg, that's too depressing to even think about.

It has been suggested that if we vote OUT, Dopey will resign. That can only be a good thing.

If that happens, I shall laugh my head off! It will be most amusing to see the faces of the Europhiles and the sheeple a few years down the line.

In all seriousness, if 'we' vote to stay in I think the best thing to do would be to apply for German citizenship. Those who remain in Britain will wish they hadn't. Britain = the dustbin of Europe.
