A weaker pound, prices rising, wages not going up, business investment falling...the source? That well known lefty...Mark Carney. Add to that, more expensive holidays, longer airport queues and increasing political isolation within Europe...thank you so much Nigel, Boris and Co, how will the nation ever be able to thank you?[/QUOTE

You're starting to sound like Swale, don't go there please stick to reasoned arguments not that silly buggers rants

What he is pointing out actual facts just like me?

But do restrict your posts to three lines or less AR, anything more is to much effort for others to read and comprehend and gets dismissed as a rant!

Sorry Ramanag, this has to be said.

You may love the EU, I don't.
It is a force that has taken the sensible things such as free trade, as tools for its goals of unification.

You have to abide by its rules/movement/policies or else.
I am sure most countries populations haven't grasped that yet. The newer members seem to have and are rebelling. Poland/Hungary for example.
Lets take you examples as a pain factor.

1. The pound has been far weaker against the euro. It happens. It is up to us to get those trade deals done and sort it out. You seem to look at this as a negative and not an opportunity. Also from the side of what have lost?, not as what could we gain?
2. More expensive holidays? Really? Then don't go to Europe. My holiday to Thailand in October is mega cheap. The Portugese/Spanish/Italians/Greeks will be frothing at this. Their economy depends on tourism. Not a bargaining chip then?
3.The airport queues are down to the EU's stupid Schengen. The ability to move guns and explosives easily over borders. We aren't in that, so we get checked out more closely? Also the lack of staffing, because Schengen is so wonderful?
4. Political isolation? lol
The UK has more voice than most of Europe. The EU has even tried to steal our voice/vote on the UN security council

Have a day off please.

You've done this to death Tricky...I know you're probably going to raise the flag, sing rule Britannia all while fondly remembering your Thai holiday memories tonight, but if you could tell me how things have improved, as opposed to becoming increasingly depressing and chaotic since late last June I'd be happy to listen. Please don't try and argue that the pound isn't down, prices are up, business investment is falling and wages are going nowhere all as a result of the uncertainty created by Brexit though...that's just the truth.

TTR going to Thailand that speaks volumes in itself! As for us not suffering economically due to Brexit, mm we already are and it has n't happened yet!

What's the issue with Thailand, Swale? I'm guessing what you mean and that really does show you up as the exact type of person you rant against

But undoubtedly a hypocrite

Not sure why...he made an assumption, maybe wrongly - I wouldn't know - based on why a great many 'westerners' visit Thailand.
