I genuinely think it’s more simple than that mate, almost to a man none of them want to leave this massive and very lucrative club for people just like themselves and they have found the way to f**k o

All this could have been avoided, if the EU had had the brains to throw that prick Cameron a bone when he was asking for a different deal for the UK, there never would have been a referendum. The

I had a conversation in the week with a bloke I do business with. He phones up sounding like he is going to be shot at dawn and tells me that another associate has taken over a dealership so now

If you want to look into it, I don't believe the referendum has legal weight, it's a recommendation to government, not an order, if I remember right.

HMG seem to disagree with you. The problem is that other countries have their interests and will represent them to the best of their ability. UK gov at least recognise that, and that if they wish to proceed into the future then shoving two fingers to all and sundry isn't in the UK's best interests.

The era of gunboat diplomacy is long past.

I think you are right, it wasn’t legally binding but there was a commitment to honour the vote......I mean how you going to look a demorcratic majority in the eye and say “sorry wrong answer boys”.........although it has been done more than once in other countries :laugh:

Honouring what your people vote for isn’t shoving two fingers up......you shouldn’t be beating another nation with a stick for doing that or making it as awkward as possible.

If you beleive in democracy you make it happen and swallow any bitter medicine that comes with it in my opinion.

That was your motivation for voting leave I get that fine but what does "fk the eu leftie machine" entail? What are the consequences good and bad? How does it effect the UK's relationship with it's biggest trading partner going forward?

Ah, but who's democracy? Only the UK voted for brexit. There's no onus of the rest of us in the EU to solve brexit's many problems for the brexiteers. 

You're right on the commitment. But I'd caution on relying on a politicians promise. They are reliably unreliable.

Other nations are, rightly, protecting their own interests. UK bought the problem by voting brexit. Leaving the solutions on the back on the UK seems reasonable to me.
