Brexit benefits - where are they?

Funny how that always happens when a plane lands full of British people. Just like it always happened because we were never in the Schengen area.

Try not to be the victim. There are help lines available for people who think they are constantly picked on. I know, I know, it’s not you. It’s them. We get that. It’s nothing to do with you or your actions or your believes. Stay brave and resilient. Ignore the negaters.
Except you keep playing the victim card.

So the long and the short of it is no benefits have surfaced at all .

Not the case, really.

There are just not many who feel the need to answer the daft question!

Luckily nobody numerated the benefits of being IN the EU!

It’s done.

How many more years of wittering do we need?

Well said @Tedc - mind you, a benefit for me is to watch the so-called remainers on here trying to bend over backwards in an effort to convince us that voting for Brexit was a mistake … keeps me amused anyway :grinning:

But it’s like talking to a brick wall
Meanwhile the benefits ( the topic of this thread ) are strangely missing .

Even better. A balance to be proud of LOL

You are saying that you are the victim of made up things?

What’s done can and will be undone

Especially as it was such a ruddy stupid, self-destructive, xenophobic and small minded thing to do in the first place

You’re right, enough with the wittering. Time to be honest and admit what a disaster it is, with no benefits, and start the process of getting back in

How are those trade deals with China going? You know, the ones that were going to fill the gap and more after we lost trade with the EU?

The ones that were so important it was OK to ignore China’s human rights record and send Theresa May over to kiss President Xi Jinping’s butt?

I am not sure a £10billion trade deficit is something to be proud of is it? Surely the idea is to import less than you export so you make a profit rather than incur a debt.

Australian trade with the EU is a deficit too so they must be doing something right.

Thats about to change with the the FTA with UK, AU and NZ. We already export >£300 million worth of cars there, for example and now can do more with less trade friction.

The trade deficit is one of the reasons we left, remember all those posts about UK manufacturing moving to the EU through EU grants etc and how the single market prevented us from importing goods from elsewhere blah blah. That graph shows how the deficit is reducing now we are trading more with other countries (mainly due to the 70+ trade agreements the UK now has and soon to be part of CPTPP).

The Australian deficit with the EU is irrelevant, because Australia was never in the EU (as the EU’s second biggest market - biggest single market outside the block) and left like the UK did. Now as a pioneer of Brexit, you get to enjoy the FTA between Australia and Brexit Britain, Bruce - surely something to get excited about right ?

Xenophobic ?

LOL

By the way, the EU hasn’t got a trade deal with China either. In our case, we don’t want one, it would be a disaster. We have over 70 others though, about 60 more than the EU.

Macrons France has descended into 3rd world anarchy. This is the heart of the EU in 2023 but yet the unelected elites stay quiet.

Thank God for Brexit.

All FTAs make my loins moist.

just don’t let your pants get moist.

Actually quite funny Bruce.
