    "No Deal" wasn't on the ballot paper. It has simply evolved due to the general intransigence of the EU.

    Bring it on.

        HTH

        But you didn't vote for no deal, that was never on offer. What was talked about at the time was Canada ++, or something like Norway, or our own 'special' deal. The ref was always leave with a deal, that was the will of the people. There is now a deal to leave the EU, exactly as the people willed, so we should just let our PM sign the damn thing so we can move on and try to fix everything that is now broken.

          Well I wouldn't know. But if it is the root cause of your gurning perpetual belligerence then you may have a point.

          However, I suspect I will never know.

          Never mind though, perhaps if we crash out spectacularly enough, you will be sent home to join us in our "suffering".

            So on the one post you say we voted for no deal, then you follow it up agreeing no deal wasn't on the ballot paper (and hence we didn't vote for it). Come on, make your mind up ..... what do you think you and 17m other poor saps actually voted for?

              Stop being so naive. It was ALWAYS a reasonable possibility if the EU Commission insisted upon putting their own narrow interests ahead of the needs of the European electorate as a whole.
              Hey presto, that has now come to pass it seems.

              Let's just hope that the white-flag-waving Politicians that we are saddled with grow a set and don't capitulate entirely.

                In fact Norway was the shining example given by Brixters for years running up until the referendum.

                  You really have a burning need for everything to be laid out in the simplest possible terms for you don't you?

                  I suppose that is a by-product of being so simple-minded.

                  Now jog on home....your village is pining for it's idiot.

                    There you have it from the horse's mouth. shaunbhoy thinks he voted for hard Brexit. He must have gone into the gents instead of the polling booth and put his cross against some "hard" offering in the graffiti.

                      Touched a nerve did I? Maybe one day you can explain to us what you did vote for, as you clearly have no idea.
