For the young folk, like myself, whom are intending to become employed following university, the current situation looks a bit dull.
Following a no deal/hard Brexit which is becoming a more imminent possibility, we could end up with an economy built like a sh1thouse and the supposed end to this ‘austerity’ will be back.
Furthermore, not only the possible decrease in trade, but also trying to fill the sectors of work where immigrants make up a large percentage of that workforce. The NHS for example, 12.7% of its UK workforce are non British. Although Brexit doesn’t mean we will lose those 12.7% of NHS staff, it does reflect how immigration is crucial to the success of Britain, with it being an ageing population.
Not only that, I was wanting to go into the field of ‘International Finance/Law’, which is now looking a more difficult possibility. Not impossible, but has been made harder by statistically the older age groups within Britain.
Although I’m certainly one to oppose Nationalism/Patriotism, I’m struggling to see the ‘Great’ in Great Britain anymore. |  |

Add in loss of freedom of movement, it’s a disaster.
Plus it impacts on everyday travel now too

I'm off on holiday at the start of April so I'm hoping sanity prevails and border checks and an open sky agreement are all in place.
If I lose my evenings at the vineyards I'm not going to be happy.

We were bankrupted by two world wars. We'll never be 'Great' again. However, bear in mind that being 'Great' in the 18-19th centuries meant killing foreigners by the truckload, being prime movers in the slave trade, and selling drugs to an entire nation on a scale that would have had Pablo Escobar drooling.
At the same time the ordinary folk of 'Great' Britain spent much of their lives close to starvation, facing the likelihood of death or transportation for petty theft, whilst living in disease-ridden rural or urban squalor, doing increasingly dangerous work that left them dead or broken by disease by their 40s.

It's fairly clear there is now a majority to stay in the EU. May keeps talking about the largest turnout ever. Why not add some clauses to the next vote? At least the same number of people must vote and remain must get at least 55% of the vote to overturn the last referendum. That way leave goes in with 'champion's advantage' but remain will almost certainly win with both of those stipulations met.
If we get the chance to reverse our votes, many of us will take it. |
You must also apologise for being hoodwinked in the first place. | |

I've been wondering about some kind of mechanism to ban leave voters from ever voting again to stop them inflicting more damage down the line.
I guess we'd need them to own up and start a list, but they might just be persuadable... |  |

But that hasnt happened in Norway. You need to get out more there are loads of Countries out there which aren't part of the EU and don't have insular problems. Actually one of the worst Countries in the world for that is Itally and they are part of the EU |
You are a very long way off on both cases, you need to get out more |  | | |

The more red tape and barriers the more need for lawyers and other experts on international finance Things will settle down long before you leave Uni .
UK business will survive but they will already be looking for workarounds.
Take for example delays at borders . You can guarantee that the French will make life difficult but doubt if Belgium and Holland will as obstructive. Where there is a si there will always be a way |  |

The word "Great" in "Great Britain" refers not to quality, but instead to geographical extent, i.e. including Scotland after 1707. [Post edited 16 Nov 2018 11:17]

They will stick by the 27 rules.
The NL needs Germany more than it needs the UK + both NL & Belgium are part of Benelux.
EU companies started to take on alternative supply routes after 2013
The French by having a UK border on their land have been more cooperative than most.
Everyone else is wrong except the brexiteers ? | | | |

You genuinely don't know what you're talking about but yet seem to think you know better than people who do. |
In a nutshell, this is how we ended up in the mess we're in. |  |

i think this would just cause more issues, what happens if 54.8% vote remain.
thats a solid proportion of the population who are told, good try but no.
the issue we have is that the brexit vote if take 100 times will be close every time, you will never get a countrywide result.
I think remainer's have quietly pushed all negative attribute to the EU under the rug and slated all the potential negative side affects of leaving.
flip side
Brexiteers seem to have forgotten all of the positive aspect of the EU and have brushed all the negative aspects of leaving under the rug. | | | |

Well I especially liked the bit where he said that very well-qualified experts are just people who think they can predict the future, whilst confidently predicting that Brexit won't make any difference long term. He seemed to pluck that forecast from his arse. He is speculating from a position of ignorance whilst criticising the forecasts of those whose job it is to forecast what might happen based on expert acquired knowledge.

What does any of that mean?
1.1 what?
Which union?

Leave won referendum one, so if remain won a revote, it would be 1-1.
EU = european union. So this union.

i don't recall any mention of experts getting it wrong.
there are a significant number of economists who believe that in the medium term there is likely to be little change in UK output compare to if we stayed.
I believe what was being pointed out was that there is a lot of scaremongering based on little fact or even economic literature.
p.s. you could make the same point regarding leave's utopia [Post edited 16 Nov 2018 13:13]

Yes them same forecasters and economists who predicted recession and an emergency budget needed plus rampart unemployment straight after the vote to leave. I have the pleasure of economists and analysts daily with their views and predictions and I can count on 1 hand the amount who get things correct a month or two later ...I have no idea of your success in business or life but i suspect from your posts it is very limited and you are still in the learning phase with much to learn!

Sorry mate!
I actually want us to remain and have no time for the hard right brexiteers the point I am trying to make is whilst it will be more difficult we will adapt as a country and all be OK if by some disaster we left with no deal.
Apologies if appeared condescending not intended.... | | | |
