Brexit.

[Franko]

It's just a thought! Beats going on about it. Soft or hard Brexit! This expert says this and that one says that Zzzzzzzzzz

I've lost interest, so is there a timeline when it actually happens and have they sorted out the Irish problem?

For someone who has lost interest you seem to spend a lot of time posting on this thread (and asking questions now!).

The basics below... from all sorts of different perspectives.  Spend a little time and educate yourself.

Beats actively going to a place set aside for people to discuss it, to whine about people discussing it.

Supposed to be March 2019 but it is already veering wildly.

Cheers Seafoid, and Franko when I get time I'll go over this, possibly over a nice Bordeaux

After Brexit Bordeaux won't be allowed, you'll have to drink Kangaroo Piss, or Tierra Del Fuego jugo de uva.

Muhammad Ali Pasha took over as Sultan of Egypt in the late 1700s.  He replaced the Mamluks. He invited 300 Mamluk nobles to the citadel and once they were inside 299 were murdered.
The reasonable Tories need to do something similar politically to the Eurosceptics. I think this is what May and spreadsheet Phil are aiming for. The UK cannot go ahead with Brexit.

There are more biscuits in the McVities digestives sold in France than in those sold in the UK. FFS.

Irish top court seem to having a laugh at the expense of the British. Today the supreme Court refused to extradite a man to the UK under a EU arrest warrant on the grounds that any imprisonment would go beyond March 29 2019 and therefore the EU warrant was void.
Oh the possibilities!
Apparently there are about 20 people in the same boat in Ireland, I wonder how many in the rest of the EU?

"A no-deal Brexit would blow an £80bn hole in the public finances, with the leave-voting heartlands of north-east England and West Midlands worst affected, according to new detail from the government's own secret economic analysis.

The Guardian has learned that the secret papers, which assess the economic impact of leaving the bloc, predict that if there is no deal, the government will need to borrow £120bn more over the next 15 years.

The report suggests that the north-east would face a 16% hit to regional economic growth, and the West Midlands 13%. And it claims that a hard Brexit would mean an overall 21% rise in retail prices, with a 17% rise in food and drink costs."

NI would take 12% off GDP as the Protestant dividend.
17% to a fiver worth of wine will be hard to swallow.

Well the shit is about to hit the fan!

EU legal text will enforce the north remaining in the single market.

Dup going to go batshit
