Macron being obstinate: CHECK!

Further filibustering of the recent Cooper-Letwin bill: In progress ... 

Negotiations breaking down between government and opposition: In progress ... 

No new introduction of a private members bill to interfere: CHECK!

Only less than a week to go towards ultimate freedom ...

Ultimate freedom:

USA forceing the UK to accept their Genemodifed foods, chlorinated chicken, Growth hormone & heavily medicated meats, in a trade deal.
As well as being forced to buy certain medicine's from the US, if it wants a trade deal with the US.

Thats just the USA, China/india will likely bully you guys too.

Also a hard boarder at Nothern Ireland... which might restart the troubles.
Plus the chance of loseing Northern Ireland (they might re-unite with ireland), and Scoutland might seek independence as well.

In less than 3% of the votes in the EU, did the UK oppose them.
Which means 97% of the time, the UK voted alongsides the EU members majority.

These 3% of "freedoms" you give up (most of which are just decent things that protect the rights of the people) and now regain, will come at a huge cost.

Your economy is gonna take a huge hit for it.
Worth it?

*Edit:

I think brexit is like the UK shooting itself in the foot.
However at this point, I think its for the best as well.

The UK never really believed in the EU project, and was mainly in it for self benefits (economically), and always looked down on the EU members, from their "high horses".
UK has a "victim superiorty" complex, and has spent the last 20years blameing the EU for everything under the sky that went wrong in the UK.
It was a easy scape goat for politicans.... because of this people in the UK have a twisted view on the EU.

UK is no longer the "empire on which the sun never sets", and I think reality is gonna smack them in the face soon.

Anyways best of luck UK.

This is the exact sort of fear mongering that people hate, imported chicken 😂 like we have no way of getting our own, what will happen to all our chickens? Will they go on strike so We are FORCED to get them from America?

Also access to certain meds from America, that's great news, cancer patients offer die here because of treatment we can't get from America without having to travel to get it!

Irish hard border? The EU have already stated there will be no hard border that they can do in land checks

We were also told with us mearly voting to leave we would fall into a recession...... Never happend..... We may no longer be that empire anymore but the commonwealth still consists of 53 countries  were home to the most common spoken language in the world, the 5th largest economy we have the best tech hub in Europe .. We'll do just fine
