Brexit Day
Yes some 1,316 days since the UK voted to leave, 2 general elections, Labour's worst result for 84 years (we tried to warn them), hundreds of thousands of people marching, the supreme court, indicative votes, Gina Miller, Stop Brexit Man, stockpiling of tins and insulin etc etc
The UK will finally be leaving the EU tonight, how will one be marking the occasion?
Perhaps some reduced price Wetherspoons beer? Or maybe a bottle of Châteauneuf-du-Pape to cry in to?

Re: Brexit Day
It’s a huge mistake, and time will prove that but I’m just glad it’s f*cking gonna be official and we can start to move on.
British people will now have to step up and stop being lazy fucks. Let’s see how that goes.

Re: Brexit Day
We are not leaving the EU this evening......we are starting 11 months of transition. Everything will stay the same till then
All the EU rules and regulations still apply in the same way, the only difference is, we have lost the power of veto, so if the EU wanted to play dirty, they could introduce laws that make life proper difficult for us, and we cant do anything to stop it
We leave the EU on Dec 31st this year, with a deal if they can manage that in 11 months, or more likely with no deal, and then the effects will hit home hard
Im already getting my " told you so" messages ready

Re: Brexit Day
COYOs is right here: today is no big deal, really. Dec 31 2020 is the real leaving date.
So I’m gonna swerve buying a Got Brexit Done tea towel and try to avoid any gammons getting overexcited tonight.

Re: Brexit Day
No need to shout. Fishing and aquaculture’s gross value added contribution to UK economic output = 0.004%. Sounds a bit Passport to Pimlico to me.

Re: Brexit Day
Slacker is right that COYOs is right. However, I'd put money on us not even completely 'leaving' by 31 December. What's more realistic is that we agree to a phased exit, sector by sector, over a much longer period (i.e. five years).
But now that it is happening I hope we make a success of it.

Re: Brexit Day
I, er, voted leave .918, though I saw the referendum choice as between 2 less-than-crucial sh*t sandwiches. But I’ve zero respect for the politics of Farage, Widdicombe & obsessive Kipper Little Englander types.

Re: Brexit Day
We will leave with a no deal scenario, Boris wants out asap, He's already put it in law we leave permanently at end of year deal or no deal.Dunners wrote: ↑Fri Jan 31, 2020 10:23 am Slacker is right that COYOs is right.

Re: Brexit Day
I will raise a glass with a mate on a night out in Dereham - and that will appropriately include a Wetherspoons.
And I will raise a glass back home with family come 11pm too.
I sure know how to celebrate eh?

Re: Brexit Day
You think your better than people who don't agree with you hence your denigration of all others.

Re: Brexit Day
Funny after all the years of Brexit it still brings out the worst in people, gammon's,Coronavirus. I imagine as I am older no hair and just got back from holidays I could clean up ??
If you voted to stay you lost,if you voted to leave you won,if you didn't vote because you are lazy or not bothered,tough get over it.
