Now David Davis says it can't possibly be *that* bad what were you actually looking forward to in our brave new world of minimal employment rights, urban decay, suburban wastelands and rural isolationism?

I think for me it'll be the A-Teamed up Saxo's that would have been roaming the M25 looking for supplies of Red Bull and Greggs with occasional forays down the M4 to Slough for raids on the Mars bar factory I'll miss.

I'm glad we won't have to hide from gangs of scavenging e-bikers roaming the foothills looking for discarded AA batteries.

Reckon I'd be up into the hills with enough spares to ride all day behind my land mined perimeter exchanging access for food and fuel, like an evil BPW

Eventually Trump will give up on the comb-over, and coupled with global warming, bring Waterworld into reality.

Much like the way all the Ladas seemed to migrate back to Russia when the iron curtain fell I'm looking forward to container ships at the docks disgorging left hand drive Ital's and Austin Ambassadors back into the UK after a life in exile.

I'm looking forward to hunting the disabled.

They're spongers who don't contribute to society and are a lot more dangerous than people realise.

We only see the cuddly ones on the TV, but they smell and cost a fortune to look after.

Some people say it's barbaric, but most of them don't feel pain like we do.

Or a rat GPz900R.

or better;

My first thought was massive supermarket sized casinos and brothels a la 'Biff's Pleasure Paradise' from BTTF2.

Blue passports should only be for those living in the south who earn more than £100,000 a year.

About time they were rewarded for propping up the rest of us.

As has be prophesied Jun 23 will become Faragetta A uniquely British celebration where we row down a local river in a race to RE-claim the Isles by throwing straight bananas at an effigy of a burning immigrant.

Then we go down the pub to drink warm beer and sing songs of the heros Davies, Gove, and children are tucked up in bed with a cuddly Mogg.

Any dissent to be noted by the Czech ambassador.

If Welsh brexiters are anti-English, and Welsh remainers are committed enough, there might be enough support for an independent Wales if it can join the EU, so we'll join you 🙂

With all those imported cheap foods and drugs which may not require any safety testing thanks to "deregulation" and "cutting red tape" then there may be a few mutated proles roaming the streets.

In a sort of sadistic way I'm looking forward to who the lace curtain twitchers will blame next when they can't blame 'barmy Brussels.'

Oh and the Brentry referendum - there's a cold snap coming next week, that alone might be enough to free us of a couple of thousand Leave Voters.

P-Jay, they will still blame Europe for all the tings they did in the past, you know, like every government does when they get in and realise what a shitstorm they have 'won' from the previous incumbents.

Nothing changes, nothing will change.

agreement on standards, frictionless trade.

http://www.cityam.com/280897/david-davis-pledges-race-top-global-standards-after-brexit

Davis: “The agreement we strike will not be about how to build convergence but what to do when one of us wants to make changes to rules. Neither side should put up unnecessary barriers during this process," Davis will add.

He will point to existing regulations that enable easy export of goods across the EU as "exactly the sort of arrangement we want to see maintained."

Vince Cable: "Davis might as well be making the case for staying in the EU. He appears to be acknowledging the great achievements of the Single Market - a British idea introduced by a British government - yet the Conservatives want to leave that and the customs union."

its already happening

the Brexit blackhole means that while all the governments attention is focused on fixing the imaginary problem of being in the EU, the real issues the country faces will only be neglected further

Its not an immediate crash, just a long slow decline into irrelevence & dysfunction

I’m looking forward to an Elysium styled society where all the alleged “important” people like so called “politicians” are held offshore in a shipping container crate without fresh water, food nor a platform from where they can talk bollocks and misslead and lie incessantly. They can of course eat their own arseholes, talk shit, misslead reach other and do it all in a tightly controlled and constrained environment that they seek keen on supporting.

Next step is to round up all the Brexiteers and fill them into similar containers and push them out to the middle of the ocean where no one can hear them moan and whine and where they can “take back control” and live in a shithole called “little gurland”

Turbocharged V8's and Z1'S.  ON a tangent that scene in mad max where all the bikes crash and get mangled always brings a tear to my eye, all those broken zeds 😣

Do you always use insulting terms to describe people you don't know, just because they might disagree with your opinion ?

It’ll help solve the housing crisis, think of all those empty housing estates.
The countryside might be free of all the townies who let their dogs off the lead, shit everywhere and kill sheep, who leave gates open, and dump their trash everywhere.

Since I have a diesel I'll be able to road warrior for a good bit longer than that impractical v8 Falcon. And I can pinch my mum's oxygen tank and be Rictus Erectus

I’m looking forward to having our old money back. Ah, 12 pennies to the shilling and 20 shillings to the pound, it all made perfect sense. The youngsters won’t have a clue what a ‘tanner’ is and us olduns will be able to rejoice: ‘ow much? They were only one and six back in my day’.
