Brexit.

[balladmaker]

Seems clear to me these negotiations will never get to an end and Tory government will fall.

Tory government will fall, Labour get in at next election, decide that so much as happened, and the UK needs a 'Clear the Air' referendum about leaving the EU or otherwise, Remain will win by a big majority and everyone is left wondering what the last couple of years have been about.

Amazed by the number of Southern accents in Newry shops just now boosting the British Exchequer! Patriotic to the core! Then there are still people who think they would willingly subsidise taking the North on by ending partition!😂😂😂

By the sounds of it, ye're lucky to have them. Only ~6k new jobs in the north in the next 3 years seems ridiculously low

Lots of minimum wage retail stuff.

Fan fiction. Corbyn is a Eurosceptic too.

We know that the British can't be trusted
We are making a big mistake thinking that the Germans and French can be trusted to look after our interests. Merkel will throw us under the bus if she thought that the U.K. market for Mercs and B
M.W.s was at risk

If the British can't be trusted and the Germans and French can't be trusted, what are the options?

[seafoid]

I doubt Brexit will happen. It is emotional rather than rational. It would put the UK and EU in competition so the EU will handicap it. And it is not the answer to the real problem which is an economic system that does not work for ordinary people.

We have seen how the Germans treated us. Maybe if we gave Mr Pugin a call to see how he is fixed for an airbase they'd take us serious

The Germans and ECB put manners on our Government for running a cowboy Financial operation, for Harney and McCreevy telling the EU to fk off for 15 years and then we had Cowen and Lenihan  ducking and diving and telling porkies about our Finances from 2008 to 2010.
Remember the Regulator (sic) telling the Dáil in August 2098 that the banks were sound while Anglo Irish share prices had been dropping like stones for 4 months.
They were still telling them as the Bailout was happening - wasn't it Dempsey telling the media there was no Bail out while it was being finalised in the building behind them.
I presume we can still veto any proposed deal?

You do realise that as the shit hit the fans " the fundamentals of the economy were sound"
and of course M.R.S.A. is a quick way of cutting waiting lists

There's a lot of Irish people that still think the rest of the world should have paid for the bad behaviour of our banks and the cowboys they indiscriminately lent money to. Britain too had to bail out their banks to the tune of 500 million. The difference is we needed to borrow to bail out our bad boys.

Funny, the money wasn't subject to a national identity until it went to hell.

If you make an investment in a private business (whether through bonds or shares) you make a profit which is your compensation for the risk involved - if the firm is successful. If it isn't successful, you generally lose your money. Unless you lent money to the banks.
