they have a trade deal tho

2019-10-17 11:35:49 UTC  

as much as i hate to admit, pep has a point here

2019-10-17 11:36:16 UTC  

it's a matter of perspective regarding how much bargaining power the UK or the EU have

2019-10-17 11:36:20 UTC  

This is too stupid now, we have dudes thinking we are more powerful than the entire EU

2019-10-17 11:36:25 UTC  

Our bargaining potential has been sold short by the remain crowd and effectively meant we are now beholden to the EU therefore BRexit has failed

2019-10-17 11:36:38 UTC  

And it means we will eventually rejoin this failing corrupt block

2019-10-17 11:36:38 UTC  

but given sheer economic output capacity, EU would appear to have more leverage

2019-10-17 11:36:43 UTC  

I’m going back to work, these power fantasies are impossible to argue with

2019-10-17 11:36:43 UTC  

PEP... if the EU doesnt want a ftd ... thats fine... we would earn more through tariffs than we spend

2019-10-17 11:37:05 UTC  

they would lose out... so ... its fine if they want that

2019-10-17 11:37:11 UTC  

We literally don't need the EU that is the thing, it is a remain fantasy.

2019-10-17 11:37:11 UTC  

what is the GDP comparison? UK vs EU?

2019-10-17 11:37:20 UTC  

to the net of 8bn a year

2019-10-17 11:37:26 UTC  

Inb4 Poland veto the deal

2019-10-17 11:37:29 UTC  

^^ this is also true storin

2019-10-17 11:37:37 UTC  

the uk doesn't need the eu

2019-10-17 11:37:44 UTC  

no one really 'needs' the eu

2019-10-17 11:37:54 UTC  

They need us and that has been proven many times, the EU needs to fail because it is corrupt at the root

2019-10-17 11:38:07 UTC  

well, that isn't totally accurate

2019-10-17 11:38:13 UTC  

Cum is dead boyo's

2019-10-17 11:38:14 UTC  

Also I love how the customs arrangement has an absolute veto from Stormont

2019-10-17 11:38:15 UTC  

I think focusing on GDP is a net negative for the individuals who live in Britain too. It sees people as a single working block rather than looking at their living standards. This is why the GDP rising in America means fuck all if people's individual living standards remain stagnated along with wages.

2019-10-17 11:38:20 UTC  

And they will not fix it, Juncker and Barnier and Verhofstadter have all said "nope the EU is fine, it has problems but we aint dealing with them"

2019-10-17 11:38:21 UTC  

the EU burrecrats in brussels NEED the uK, yes

2019-10-17 11:38:25 UTC  
2019-10-17 11:38:29 UTC  

but not the eu countries

2019-10-17 11:38:57 UTC  

I'm interested in seeing what this deal Boris has made.

2019-10-17 11:38:59 UTC  

brussels needs everyone to maintain their power base

2019-10-17 11:39:09 UTC  

Mikey its not great but it's better

2019-10-17 11:39:09 UTC  

no one needs them

2019-10-17 11:39:15 UTC  

If the UK leaves with a no deal it hits the EU export market, and the UK export market gets a glancing hit, not only that but French and German voters will then have to pay more to subsidise the failing states of the EU

2019-10-17 11:39:19 UTC  

What's bad about it?

2019-10-17 11:39:22 UTC  

Starting with Greece and Poland

2019-10-17 11:39:27 UTC  

basically the deal is mays deal.. but with the island of ireland in its own CU

2019-10-17 11:39:37 UTC  

Jack, pm it. I'm in class and gotta go lmao

2019-10-17 11:39:43 UTC  

And NI can veto arrangements

2019-10-17 11:39:53 UTC  

The French are already kicking off due to green taxes on their vehicles (I think) in what is known as the Yellow vest, do you think they are going to agree to picking up the UK's tab

2019-10-17 11:39:54 UTC  

It'll just get washed away in here

2019-10-17 11:40:05 UTC  

well, the EU can also 'psuedo-sanction' the UK by offering a conditional discount on their goods on the condition UK is isolated

2019-10-17 11:40:06 UTC  

they can veto CU arrangments
