  1. Here's a list. I used ChatGPT, because I'm too thick and lazy to compose a post myself: 1. Sovereignty and Legislative Independence Regaining Control Over Laws: One of the most significant arguments for Brexit was the ability to regain full control over UK laws without being subject to EU regulations or the European Court of Justice. This allows the UK to tailor legislation to its specific needs and priorities. Trade Policy Independence: The UK can now negotiate its own trade deals independently of the EU. This has already led to new trade agreements with countries like Japan, Australia, and New Zealand, which are tailored to the UK’s specific economic interests. 2. Immigration Control End of Free Movement: Brexit ended the free movement of people between the UK and the EU, allowing the UK to implement its own immigration policies. The UK introduced a points-based immigration system designed to attract skilled workers while reducing the influx of low-skilled labor. Focus on Skilled Migration: The new system prioritizes migrants with specific skills, which proponents argue will help meet the UK’s labor market needs more effectively. 3. Financial Savings Reduced EU Contributions: The UK no longer has to contribute to the EU budget, which has been estimated to save billions of pounds each year. These funds can potentially be redirected towards domestic priorities such as healthcare, education, or infrastructure. Agricultural and Regional Funding Control: Post-Brexit, the UK has gained full control over agricultural subsidies and regional development funds, allowing for more targeted support for British farmers and disadvantaged regions. 4. Regulatory Flexibility Deregulation Opportunities: Brexit provides the UK with the opportunity to deregulate in certain areas where EU regulations were seen as burdensome. This could lead to greater flexibility and innovation in sectors like financial services, biotechnology, and manufacturing. Tailored Environmental and Labor Laws: The UK can now develop its own environmental, labor, and consumer protection laws, which can be adapted more closely to national circumstances and preferences. 5. Global Trade Opportunities Expanding Trade Horizons: Brexit has encouraged the UK to focus on global trade, beyond Europe, aligning with the idea of "Global Britain." The UK can pursue trade deals with emerging markets and establish economic partnerships with fast-growing regions in Asia, Africa, and the Americas. Joining Trade Blocs: The UK has shown interest in joining trade blocs like the Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership (CPTPP), which could open up new markets and strengthen trade relationships outside of Europe. 6. Economic and Business Flexibility Tailored Economic Policy: The UK can now set its economic policies without needing to coordinate with 27 other EU member states. This allows for more agile responses to economic challenges, such as adjusting taxes, subsidies, and regulations to better suit domestic needs. Support for Small Businesses: By leaving the EU, the UK can potentially reduce regulatory burdens on small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) that were previously bound by EU-wide regulations. 7. Political and Cultural Identity Reaffirmation of National Identity: For many, Brexit was seen as a way to reassert British national identity and ensure that decisions about the country’s future are made in the UK. This has strengthened the sense of self-determination and control over national destiny. Cultural Policy Independence: The UK now has the freedom to craft its own cultural policies, including those related to education, media, and heritage, without needing to align with EU cultural directives.
  2. The latest Employee of the Month at the Beeb:
  3. Germany's in the EU, we're not...
  4. Actually, I think you have rumbled me. I am in fact of low intelligence and inspired by Nazi propaganda. Typical traits of Brexiteers (and most Ukrainians, according to Putin.)
  5. So, 52% of the people voting in the Brexit referendum have "lower levels of intelligence and reasoning"? You really are a piece of work. Arrogant just doesn't quite cover it. Alright, here's one for you and all the other super intelligent remainers. Provide economic data to demonstrate the benefits of membership to the EU, to France & Germany since we left and saved £19 billion a year. I won't hold my breath.
  6. UK GDP Growth in 2016: United Kingdom: The UK's GDP grew by 1.8% in 2016. This growth was slightly slower than in 2015 but still relatively robust considering the uncertainty following the Brexit vote. Comparison with the Rest of the G7: United States: The US GDP grew by 1.6% in 2016, which was slower than the UK's growth. Canada: Canada experienced GDP growth of about 1.4%. Germany: Germany's economy grew by 1.9%, slightly outperforming the UK. France: France saw growth of 1.1%. Italy: Italy’s GDP grew by around 0.9%. Japan: Japan's GDP growth was about 1.0%. Summary: In 2016, the UK’s GDP growth of 1.8% was one of the stronger performances among the G7 nations, only slightly trailing Germany’s 1.9%. Despite the uncertainties surrounding the Brexit referendum, the UK economy demonstrated resilience during that year, maintaining a relatively solid growth rate compared to its peers
  7. I posted facts, you ignored them and posted waffle. You're not very good at this debating mullarky, are you?
  8. I love that you follow the admission that the predictions prior to the Leave vote were "over dramatic and exaggerated", then you follow it up with your own "over dramatic and exaggerated" prediction "Brexit has been a disaster for the UK economy and will only get worse with time" Stop clutching your pearls and read the actual economic data I posted above, based on current figures and predictions from the Treasury, OBR and IMF. Alternatively, get someone with a modicum of impartiality and intelligence to read the posts to you. A 12 year old should do. Remainers. There is no limit to their lack of respect for democracy and economic facts, even after 8 years of experience and yet still longing for Brussels cold embrace.
  9. You had to quote my troll, didn't you? As he is on ignore, I didn't read the bollox he spouted the first time, but in the spirit of accuracy, a concept which this sad sack is not familiar, just a couple of points: I consider people who deliberately and falsely put this countries achievements down, as traitors, not those that voted against Brexit. I am sure they, like I, respect democracy and have moved on (as if). I never stated those who voted Labour are Marxists. I said the Unions that support Labour are Marxist. No shit, Sherlock. I think what you should notice about this poster is he is the 1st to reply to my posts, within a minute of me posting (check it out). A sad troll and stalker, one that will remain on ignore because he has nothing to contribute to a debate apart from insults and dogma. My problem is that my ID was outed many years ago by the BBC and it means that sad fucks on this site try to have a pop against me personally. Fucking right I'll threaten to sue if anyone posts lies about me. I found out the id of one of my trolls and when I phoned up and offered to meet up for a "chat", he whined like a baby and apologised. Gutless keyboard warriors. Fuck 'em all.
  10. "...the cold never bothered me anyway." An apt song for our pensioners since Labour came to power. 🤣
  11. Oh and looking back to the days before the Brexit vote, let's look at the bollox the Treasury said would happen, if we voted the "wrong" way. It predicted an instant recession in the second half of 2016 but, in the event, the UK ended that year as the world’s best performing major economy. It prophesied that unemployment would rise by 9,000 a month, but unemployment instead fell by almost exactly that amount. It said there would need to be an emergency budget to plug a £19 billion gap but obviously, no such budget was needed. Rachel Thieves is spouting the same bollox to justify the totally expected tax rises. So fucking predictable...
  12. I must admit, I thought it would take longer than 6 weeks for the above to come to pass. Without doubt, the worst Government that has been inflicted on the 70% that didn't vote for the clowns. Those that did must be very happy with the wage rises their Marxist unions achieved, that will be funded by those outside the public sector. The only consolation is that Whitey and sog will lose their winter fuel allowance. To paraphrase Whitey, "You have no idea what damage you have done" 🤣
  13. Blood on their hands:
  14. We never pay any-one Dane-geld, No matter how trifling the cost; For the end of that game is oppression and shame, And the nation that plays it is lost!
  15. ..as those that ignore the facts.
  16. Two bullshit reports that are used to support the efforts of socialist traitors to put this country down. Why do lefties like doing that, I wonder, particularly that son of a bus driver, Sadiq Khan, who commissioned the second report? Not content with fucking London up, he's trying to do the same to the rest of the country. That little weasel won't be content until he turns the rest of the country into a third world shithole, like London.
  17. More bone picking required:
