    Anti "No Deal" - An excuse?

    Are some people using "Anti-No Deal" as an excuse not to leave?

    Surely the main thing is that now the people have voted to leave, we just leave!

    I know this can be difficult for your ilk to understand. Cough... NO ONE voted for no deal. Capisce comrade?

      Read my post again. "We" didn't vote for a deal either. "We" voted to leave.

        That's not an option for a EU member quitting the union. The UK was instrument in setting it up that way back in the 90's. Unless the existing members ratify a new policy. Quitting without a deal would be damaging to all in the EU. Everyone agrees. It is an extraordinary selfish situation but it is what it is with the internal problems facing everyday life in the UK remaining just as they had done before.

        It's like the fishermen complaining, we voted leave, we want our rights back! But their leader Farage sold those rights.

          So I was correct.

            And those who voted to stay did no vote for an European army.

              Surely the main thing is that now a slim majority of the people have voted to leave, we should leave at a pace and on terms that don’t threaten the stability of the country. There’s no hurry to leave at any cost, we should do it the right way to provide the promised Brexit benefits to the people!

                  *shrugs*. It’s an odd perspective where someone agreeing that you should leave but not damage yourself on the way out is perceived as the naysayer...

                    Not like the EU needs one when they can walk all over the UK by doing nothing.
