DogofWar1 Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 So if this goes Remain does David Cameron come back and we just pretend the last 2.5 years didn't happen? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DCSaints_fan Posted February 26, 2019 Share Posted February 26, 2019 Wish I could find good picture of the Norway-Sweden customs check border. Keep in mind, Norway isn't in the EU, but is in the single market (but not in the customs union, which kind of doesn't make sense, but does, its a long story) But the UK doesn't want to be in the single market or customs union (but somehow they want "access" according to one UK MP ) And they think they're going to get around not having a "hard" border between ROI/NI 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DCSaints_fan Posted February 28, 2019 Share Posted February 28, 2019 I suspect the EU is going to tell the UK to go pound sand. Unless there is a drastic measure like a second referendum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they would prefer to work with them as much as possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they would prefer to work with them as much as possible. If I were the EU, I would just cut bait if they can't get a deal done by the end of March. This has been dragging on for 2.5 years now, and the EU has been wasting time negotiating with the UK, when they could have spent time doing other things. The EU is the one holding the cards. They're a much larger economic power. The UK is the one who wants a change the status quo. When the UK exits, the EU won't be the first ones to put up trade or movement barriers. They've bent over backwards for an exit deal, to the extent of giving in to issues they said they weren't going to give in to, which then got shot down by British parliament. They lose face in any future negotiations with other parties if they give in anymore, as well as weakening the union. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DCSaints_fan Posted March 9, 2019 Share Posted March 9, 2019 What's the cutoff date to avoid a no deal? I assume its sometime before Mar. 29th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FanboyOf91 Posted March 9, 2019 Share Posted March 9, 2019 (edited) The UK has until 11 PM UK time, March 29, to withdraw Article 50. I don't think Parliament has time to pass May's deal without an extension (too much legislative process to work through).

I can't see a withdrawal of article 50 ever passing parliament, so I think its rapidly approaching a point of no return for a Hard Brexit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone looked around and asked who's going to occupy all the skyscrapers? Because all of them were predicated on being part of the EU. They had NO reason to be there if the UK left. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
