Agree with him.... totally.

The fact that ~80% of the UK economy is financial and services, and a huge part of that, is the single market with the EU, and their just willing to piss a huge part of it away, is odd.

PS. dont judge him by his apparence, listen to what hes actually saying.

"Watch a youtuber, he'll tell you how the world works."

Give it up already. The UK knows what advantages it does and doesn't have as part of the EU.

The EU is little more than some bullshit woke empire that is gonna crash against reality like all empires do at some point.

I just hope they don't cause another World War when they realise they have to create value instead of stealing it and living off  England's legacy.

Edit - Without the UK, Europe hasn't done anything of value for ~500 years. If Europe doesn't start doing stuff soon, it's gonna be a Chinese world. Europe needs Germany to be the power it was destined to be without the guilt complex.

"The West" never needed Chinese capital before but now the whole game is reliant on it. Default/inflate the Chinese debt away and cripple China by not letting them steal our IP.

Don't Play Stationary 4 ever. Switch!

Pyro as Bill.

So just ignore facts and reality, and talk about the "greatness" of a once upon a time, GB?
(the past is the past, we re talking the next 25-50 years here instead)

80% of GDP for the UK is Financial & services, that they mainly get from Europe.
The not getting a free trade agrement with EU (ei. just hard crashing into WTO rules) will mean you risk loseing large quantities of that.

Remember the brexiteers used to call all this stuff "Project Fear"?
(ofc EU wouldn't risk UK leaveing without a deal, and some form of free trade agreement, EU needs UK, more than it needs them, they will bend over if push comes to shove)

Reality?
EU has been saying the same thing over and over, and the UK just ignores it.
UK is basically gambleing with its economy, hopeing the EU saves them from themselves (and it doesnt look like this will happend).
Its just driveing the car towards the cliff edge, and intending to go over it.


Reality :

(UK trade secretary leaked letter, in a panic of how things will turn out)
(border infrastructure wont be ready, until april/july of 2021. Smuggleing + legal trouoble with WTO to come from this. This comes from your own Trade secretary)

*also this is "disaster for firms tradeing within the EU" (by her words). Apparently this "half year" long gap without anything in place will hurt businesses.

Mark Francois writes a mocking letter to EU, to score points amoung brexit voters.
Michel Barnier replies in a very diplomatic way.

(incompetence and curruption)


UK decides it wont use EU satilites for military and such, to get its own.
Only issue? it bought the wrong type of satalites.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kui7R3MOhRY

We re Great Britain, we dont need the EU.
And i ll prove it, by getting our own nav satilites! Procedes to spend a ton of money, on something not able to do what it was supposed to do.

I describe myself as a little dose of toxic masculinity.

Im disappointed. Its been years already and there are still medicine at the pharmacy, food at the supermarket and the super ghonorreia outbreak havent happenned yet. And pre covid 19 uk economy was pretty much alright with record low unemployment rate while everybody said it woukd bebfacing the worst recession ever. The city would be dismantled and all banks would run away.
There must be something wrong...

The Brexit will be a huge step for Scotland. They will vote to become independent and join the EU.

The EU is not perfect, but a united and free Europe is the best idea we have ever had.

UK alone just does not have the possibilities to negotiate with China or the USA on the same level.

Look how this current trade war is going. Sure, this is mostly between China and the US right now, but Europe was affected as well.

Any counter trade tariffs by the UK would just not matter on the big picture. But when the whole continent is acting together, it will have an impact. The UK just let that go.



Imagine not having GamePass on your console...

Theres a transition periode until dec 31st 2020.
UK is currently enjoying the same rules and laws, its had since it was a member of the EU.

Its first from Jan 1st 2021, that your expected to do things your own way.
Also why do you suspect there will be shortages of medicines? and foods?

WTO rules will apply, and you ll just have to buy them at slightly higher prices.

US has already made it clear, it will bend over the UK in trade negotiations. America 1st! Not just a empty slogan with Trump.
China? well after the "uk hong kong citizenship" thingy, china probably isn't feeling too generous with the UK.

A song that mentions ignoreing your own financial experts saying its a horrible idea, that will have bad consequences.
Makes fun people being against such, and sings:

"The British told them to fuck off. Seventeen million fuck-offs."

Thats not funny, thats scary as fack.


Stupid is, as stupid does... I guess.
This is like how 33% of americans think Trump is still doing a fantastic job, of dealing with the corona virus.

Like how? how are there so many people support these things?
I believe time will tell..... but even if the UK economy shrinks by like 20-30% over the comeing years, and Scotland gets its independence, or NI is reunited.... somehow there will still be some saying that brexit was the right thing to do.

He doesn't. He's trying to argue that those things not happening (taking things people have said could be an issue to the furthest possible extreme, ie. the worst possible, but not at all realistic, scenario) "proves" that brexit was a good idea.

A ridiculous argument for multiple reasons.

I live in UK so I know very well what is going on. I dont think brexit was a good idea. Its funny how people infer so many thing about you opinion even when you do not provide one. We had predictions for pre brexit and post brexit. The pre brexit predictions were mostly wrong and vastly exagerated. The predictions for post brexit today are already much less exagerated than 4 years ago and a lot of them wont hapeen at all.

You can do whatever you want with numbers and predictions and studies from think tanks, think about an outcome and you can find a math model for it.

And if it doesnt happen just say later it was an estimation. What I saw from traditional media here was shameful. But I guess that should not be a surprise.
