jukel123 6,570 Posted November 3, 2017 Report Share Posted November 3, 2017 So our leaders have had some studies done on the economic consequences of brexit. Unfortunately they are too alarming for us simpletons to read,so they are only going to publish the non scary bits. Is it just me ,or would it have not been more sensible to commission these studies before the referendum ,so that we could have made a more informed decision? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
walshie 2,804 Posted November 3, 2017 Report Share Posted November 3, 2017 Look at the stuff they told us would happen if we voted leave and hasn't happened. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Accip74 7,112 Posted November 3, 2017 Report Share Posted November 3, 2017 I think people still have to keep in mind it actually hasn't happened yet. That go's for leave & remain. All these reactions & forecasts have been way too soon & now people are so fed-up with hearing about it they don't give a fcuk. When the UK actually leaves & then only a while after that can anyone actually gauge the pros & cons of Brexit. However, leavers will never acknowledge the cons & remainers will never acknowledge the pros! Haha.... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Blackbriar 8,568 Posted November 3, 2017 Report Share Posted November 3, 2017 Surely, this will also have an impact on the remaining EU members..........but they don't seem so keen too keen to point this out. Can't imagine why......... 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Can't imagine why......... Well you have to think positive, right? If the uk can, why not he rest of the eu? Or is it easier to think of the rest of the eu in eternal turmoil when the uk leave? from what I've heard from the European Commission the general consensus seems to be fcuk em' let's crack on without them. Don't forget the uk was always the most difficult member for the EU ;-) Edited November 3, 2017 by Accip74 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Don't forget the uk was always the most difficult member for the EU ;-) The EU will carry on without us, for sure, but how will our leaving affect them ? I'm no expert, but won't the remaining members have to make up the shortfall, once our contributions stop - the likes of Greece and Portugal are already being heavily propped up, so those left in will have to pay in more to support them ? And surely the lower end of the EU financial spectrum aren't in a position to put their hands deeper into their own pockets ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
