They are now after our Insurance Services , which is another few £Billion.
November is the cut off point for this.
The EU are absolutely ruthless.
They have backed down on the remaining obstacles to the EU Trade Deal with Japan.
No need now for any Japanese Company to invest further in the UK, as they face Tariffs.
A simple calculation by the EU, they have more to gain than they lose.
I find this all so sad.
It could have been so good for the UK.
And when we are finally free again, we will hopefully never again let ourselves be taken advantage of. 1974 was when the first mistakes were made - all our own fault, of course - but then the 1970s were a low point for our country in many respects.

In the long term yes.
However I do not want us to suffer in the short term.
The short term being 5 to 10 years.
Both you and I have enough money to cope, many haven't and I worry about them.
I can take a 20% reduction in Income and still have a good life.
That would be a complete disaster for many, I cannot be a part of that.
There are many here in the Village who have worked all their life and are now dependant on the State Pension.
I do not want to see them suffer.

The situation will be that unless the government manage this properly we will all be far poorer and the very poor will have nothing from the state. But i have every confidence that the government will not allow that to happen.31-08-2017, 02:39 PM

Re: Barmier: "The EU will not move one millimetre"
It is true that many get nothing. Yet at the same time it seems that many get far more than they deserve.We've all see news reports of immigrants who have contributed nothing - and continue to contribute nothing - being handed free housing and other handouts.
What happened to 'charity begins at home'?
