This is about Independence, not Finance.

We are a fiercely independent nation, that is what we are and what we want.

We will not be ruled by others

We were happy with the Common Market, that made sense.

The EU is very different to that, it is not what we signed up for.
Agreed.

I wonder if anyone else has realised why we are the exception and the rest of Europe seem to be relatively content with being ruled by another country.

The explanation is obvious: they were 70 years ago and clearly are accustomed to it!

I don't suppose there are many politicians around from before 1974? It must feel very novel and frightening to rule a sovereign nation again after 46 years. The first thing you had in the air was not joy and frivolity, but covid.

Are you telling me that you were able to wait 46 years, doling in darkness, before regaining your freedom? Your generation is made from quite a softer material than your ancestors 70 years ago. You can't stand in their shadow!

Before 1974 you were not a member of the great european family. By your words you were sovereign untill then . During your european years you were not sovereign according to you and other brexiters. Now, after januari, you are sovereign again after 46 years. Must be an alien feeling, re-inventing sovereign ruling in britain, your politicians having no experience at that.

So you will be rebuilding soon. Don't you need an economy for that? At the amount yours is on the loan, you better pray the debt will not be collected soon.

We have our own sovereign bank and taxation system. We only need to sort ourselves out, you need to pay for everyone else.

My dear old mother always told me not to live on borrowed money. She said there will come a time you have to pay back your debts. For a nation's finances that also holds true. Britain lives on money it doesn't have.
