That's where we are so different Annie I saw it as an exciting opportunity and couldn't get enough of it. Now seeing what has happened I'm getting bored it's never going to be that we get that opportunity because they won't let us out and we have weak leaders who can't see the opportunity they have.

Hear hear.

It could be that we have to wait for the EU to die a natural death (which it will) before we ever regain our independence.

Good to see Project Fear is still going strong.

One of May's problems in getting a decent exit arrangement is putting the preferences of business above the preferences of The People.

Only people scared of a no deal appear to be rich or businesses too. This wasn't a vote about finance that I remember it was principles.

I suppose that's why she keeps banging on about jobs.
Because it's businesses that provide the jobs...
