O/T DDay for Brexit..well sort of...

Just like cricket

You have two sides, one out in the field and one in.
Each man that’s in the side that’s in goes out, and when he’s out he comes in and the next man goes in until he’s out.
When they are all out, the side that’s out comes in and the side that’s been in goes out and tries to get those coming in, out.
Sometimes you get men still in and not out.
When a man goes out to go in, the men who are out try to get him out, and when he is out he goes in and the next man in goes out and goes in.
There are two men called umpires who stay out all the time and they decide when the men who are in are out.
When both sides have been in and all the men have been out, and both sides have been out twice after all the men have been in, including those who are not out, that is the end of the game!

if anything was ever written to completely stump someone...

it’s just not wicket...

Unless you overturn it on review.

Or its the same decision and you still dont walk

WG Grace springs to mind.

Actually saw Bruce Edgar replace the leg bail and get away with it. A ball from Thomson clipped leg stump and dislodged one bail. Marsh and the slips were so far back they didnt notice until they saw him replace it. Only with home umpires!!

Boris and Hunt probably (definitely in Hunt's case) are bluffing about No Deal but that's what they have to do or EU will not renegotiate, Remainers still don't get it.

The difference is that you don't really care about the economic damage as long as it gives you the illusion that it will, by some miracle, make a difference to the numbers of immigrants we take in. It's been pointed out on here several times that any employer willing to exploit migrant workers will simply use non EU migrants. We have always had control over the number of these, but choose to import more non EU immigrants than ever. We're already showing this pattern, with the downturn in EU immigrants in 2018 being matched by an increase in non EU migrants: https://news.sky.com/story/non-eu-mi...slows-11566853

So we're risking, if the new PM's bluff doesn't pay off (which my guess is it won't) severe economic damage for an end that will disappoint you enormously.

"Severe economic damage,falling off a cliff,crashing out" are all project fear lies.The same shower of misfits told us if we never joined the euro currency, our economy would collapse.It did not.Once again the scare mongerers, pumped up by the very wealth fat cat multi corporations are out in force,protecting their own interests!!!

So you keep saying. You might be right but the vast majority of economists predict significant economic damage. Do I listen to them or MillerBill?

I personally think that the Leave project is fundamentally fuelled by fat cat multi corporations and their right wing media allays who will be singing and dancing as soon as we slash corporation/high end tax rates in response to the economic response of No Deal. I think that's the whole point. They call the tune, you dance.

If you continue believing the EU fuelled propaganda, well circulated by the multi corps who have made gigantic profits through deals agreed in Brussels,such as in the pharmaceutical industry,you are more brainwashed than I thought..These EU supporting companies want us to stay so close to the Brussels elite, to maintain their own massive greedy profits.

OK. You must be right.

In all honesty putting the politics aside NOBODY and I mean NOBODY will know the answer to what will or will not happen until we leave the EU.

The big corporations who have it easy in the UK right now do not want the boat rocked but on the other hand the common person who is paying the price for those corporations to flourish have had enough and are saying that they are happy to risk leaving the EU because it cannot get any worse than it is now.
