All you Remoaners are going to make yourselves ill with all your doomsday predictions.

It appears to have manifested into a unhealthy obsession - where your all getting worked up by others as daft as yourselves.

Get a grip; go ride your bike.

No doomsday predictions. Just watching the beginnings of the costly changes ahead. You are preparing for the changes yourself, yes? Or do you think they won't touch your bubble? Of course, we'll also keep calling for the national self harm to be stopped, but that's democracy. It would be nice for those who have pushed us into the work and costs ahead to tell us why they think it's all worth it though, I've still not heard anything concrete from anyone.

"We Won You Lost Get Over It."

The cry of the clueless Brexiter when faced with logic, reason or facts. (Used ironically in this case I presume.)

I'd wager the typical leave voter doesn't know what an EU agency is.

Just seen Davis tweet about EMA, EBA

is he in denial or just trying to somehow limit the damage done to the UKs reputation? (as if that was possible now)

WWYLGOI

All you idiots (yes, I'm going to use that word, not to describe your choice to vote brexit, but to describe your choice to use that phrase) seem to bang on about retaining our democracy and yet you expect people to just lie back and accept a decision they believe to be fundamentally wrong and damaging to the UK and all it's citizens. Isn't people's right to protest against something they see as being wrong the essence of democracy?

It is especially pertinent in this case as it's decision we can't go back on.

To summarise: Shut the hell up with this bull and try and be a bit more constructive. If that is the only response Brexiters have to someone's anti-Brexit reasoning then this Country is in a lot more trouble than any of us initially thought.

Did that, it didn't help. Still ashamed of my own country which is still ****ing itself up.

Someone thinks people come here to be baristas. No they come here to make a life, fool, and serving coffee is how they get started.

Bingo. Then they have kids, who are British people and don't even talk funny, then those kids grow up, get jobs and work and pay wages and so it goes on.

All gone now.

These new agencies we have to set up, that's a shitload of extra work we need to.pay for. Work that doesn't create any economic benefit, and workers who could have been generating wealth - all to stay exactly where we already are with regulation.

What a waste.

Googlewhack!

I'm quite chuffed with that as I only used it twice.

As others explained, 95% of leaver responses are just a variant on WWYLGOI.

And to accentuate the irony, after just being told to shut up, you're usually told to respect democracy and "get behind Brexit for the good of the country".

I wonder what agencies will leave and what will be set up once Yorkshire is out of the UK. I suspect there'll an "Imported Beer Purity Dept", it should stop[ that southern muck getting in and anything from Scotlandshire (in Particular Brewdog). The BBC will be leaving Leeds as we already have YTV. As for banks, they'll all be staying. They see the stuffed mattresses of Yorkshire as a target market. There will be trouble with immigration around Harrogate, barista's. It the only place in Yorkshire that does not know coffee comes from a jar and can be made instantley with the application of hot water, none of this messing around with rare bread coffee and obscure milk varities.

Just to accentuate the irony, get behind Yorkshire Freeeedoooom for the good of the Gods fair county.

Edit keeping up to speed in the debate.

"Get over it" is all they've got.

When people are hysterical - it's often best to keep things simple.

No amount of sensible discussion or reasoning is going to convince the most obsessed Remoaners that their opinion is wrong, or their worse case scenario is not going to happen.

I am suspicious that some people are having a giggle and encouraging the Remoaners on this thread.

I've been searching for this discussion and reasoning for 9 months, because I'd be really pleased for my opinion that Brexit is a disaster to be shown wrong.

But I'm yet to find it.

I'm not going to claim the EU is perfect, it has plenty of flaws, but the idea is fundamentally a good one and I find the expectation a country is better going solo rather than in a team of 28 to be ridiculous.

That explains the complete lack of any kind of reasoned discussion on the subject, as most have observed there isn't a coherent plan, stream of ideas and most of the reasons and explanations contradict each other.

I am suspicious that some people are having a giggle and encouraging the Remoaners on this thread.

The obvious trolls are obvious.

Agreed - if a suitable reply to an optimistic Brexiteer calling it a success is "It hasn't happened yet" then the same must be said to a pessimistic Remainer calling it a utter disaster.

No this is not a realistic response. We are already seeing bad things starting to happen due to brexit. Eg, the EU pulling out the EMA and EBA. We've also had the NHS exodus in the news recently. These are happening prior to leaving, due to leaving, and are unquestionably bad things for us. There are no good things suddenly starting to happen to make up for it, nor is there any realistic prospect of good things starting to happen when we leave.

Maybe you're right - why not give it a go? Tell us what the plan is and how the bad things that have already started will get better.

1 - There is definitely a huge amount at stake

2 - There is definitely no coherent plan

3 - There is definitely very little time to come up with one

Can anyone deny any of these points? If not, then we are definitely in a bad situation, aren't we?

Research from Cardiff University into the overwhelming support for Leave from the Fishing Industry

A Survey by Cardiff University has been published which researched the overwhelming support for Brexit by fishermen and detailed a strong desire by the grassroots of the industry for a different approach from the heavily maligned CFP.

The survey resulted in responses from fishermen throughout the UK survey covering approximately 10% of skippers being the equivalent of a poll covering 3million voters.

With a relatively even distribution of responses covering all sizes and sectors of the industry the authors of the report are delighted that it is so representative of the grassroots views of the UK industry and what they want from Brexit.

The report irrefutably quantifies that the industry does not want the disastrous CFP continued or adopted into UK law with the Great “Repeal” Bill which the government proposes to do.

Despite the degradation the industry and coastal communities have suffered there is still a resilience to see a next generation of family go to the fishing.

Results showed a clear sense of stewardship, responsibility and a willingness to see British fisheries rebuilt and for the government and science to stop ignoring fishermens expertise.

The figures show an overwhelming majority of the grassroots industry see continuation of the disaster of quotas and the mass discarding of fish they cause as flogging a dead horse.

The industry recognise that Discard Ban address the symptom (discards) not the cause (quotas) with the majority wanting management through Days-at-Sea or Catch compositions instead.

This is in stark contrast to the position of those who purport to represent the industry who want to retain the system of quotas the grassroots are opposed to..

The serious question needs to be asked, given these figures, of who are they representing, the majority of the industry or a clique of vested “slipper skipper” quota interests?

The findings of this survey graphically illustrate the majority of industry want a fresh start, it will be Interesting if the government will betray Brexit and the opportunity of rejuvenating a £6.3bn industry by retaining the status quo to appease a minority of vested interests and for political convenience.

Research also shows that children overwhelmingly support replacing vegetables with Haribo and teenage boys want lots of pron. Does that make it good for them?

We know this, and with due recognition that everyone's opinion and livelihood matters, it directly employs 11,000 people, and the supposed benefits of leaving to fishing are already in significant dispute.

1) Agreed. What Remainers ignore is the massive cost and risk of staying in the EU

2) There is a plan, read TM's letter. Our focus will be global with a desire for a sensible deal with the EU and a transition period. If one is not available then we move on with WTO.

3) Yup time is short. The EU designed A50 to be so such that it would intimidate people to stay

Mol where there really is no plan at all is the EU. What are they going to do about the budget beyond 2019, what are they going to do about excessive debt

As for "facts" we got plenty of those of Remain about what would happen if we voted Leave. We can see how those have worked out.

I bet the fishermen want unicorns too.

"I want doesn't get" isn't just a put-down for greedy children, but is actually a rigid law of the universe when what is wanted simply does not exist.

"The report irrefutably quantifies that the industry does not want the disastrous CFP continued or adopted into UK law with the Great “Repeal” Bill which the government proposes to do."

So in other words, more environmental protection laws.. sorry.. [i]"red tape"[/i].. that we will jettison during the Great Repeal Bill?

Is that a good thing?

Can we look forward to chemical companies saying they'd like shot of those pesky EU regulations that make disposing of toxic waste really expensive?
And business leaders wanting to ditch workers' rights regulations so they can go back to forcing people to do 70 hour weeks and asking the female staff to wear short skirts and flash a bit more cleavage?
