Brexit could really shift the politics in NI. The Eurosceptics want to be outside the Single Market. That doesnt suit NI Protestants cos NI doesnt have England's immigration issue but also cos NI benefits from Europe.

You don't know any ni Protestants, so how do you make this stuff up
Now, now, don't forget his poor uncle.  That's normally the line he trots out when his bigotry against  NI Protestants comes to the fore.

Michael do you think Brexit is good for the Union? Yes or no.

MR, Brexit is an English issue.
People in NI like Europe. Brexit is going to hurt farming. For the first time in a while the interests of Unionists and Englishpeople diverge. And it is about money which is also interesting.

Had a chortle at the BBCNI News yesterday evening, the NI Fishing industry were vociferously pro- Brexit but are now bleating about how a very high percentage of fleets are manned by Non-UK/Ireland EU Citizens and they will undoubtedly need special dispensation to be allowed to hire these same people pro-Brexit.

Saw that myself. Talk about wanting it every way. The gist was let us use cheap foreign labour until the "lost generation" of local men with the right skills to go to sea are up to speed. Then we wont need the cheap labour anymore. Aye right.

Hurt farmers??? Farming has been getting it tough for years... would see a lot of farmer though my door and they have been getting it tough year in year out! That's before brexit ffs! As for it being an English thing it doesn't matter as collectively it's been voted on and that's that!! No one I know (well they could have) voted for leave but hey it's here and that's that.

It's been drawn out something shocking!! I can't see how business won't be able to export in Europe to be honest...

The EU is a very small group run by the Germans... 70 odd years after losing the war in Europe they have it over a barrel....

None of us are getting out of here alive, so please stop treating yourself like an after thought. Ea

The EU is 27 Countries with a population of something like 400m.

If that's "small" ......fair enough.

MR, the advantage of being inside the EU is tariff free trade. That means higher profits for NI farmers. It means higher taxes for HM Treasury.

I know,  but I can't see trade stop altogether. As much as you'd like it to be, this won't happen...

As for developing trade with the other countries I've mentioned, that's just what's going to have to happen, and for a lot of companies they are currently doing this !

MR2 don't understand your post above

Not sure what countries that you think would make up for the exports that will be lost. And if these export opportunities are so exciting why aren't they being tapped already?
Never underestimate the predictability of stupidity
