And what exactly are we gaining for our £39 billion exit bill? SFA, I would suggest.
i think there is a very good economic argument for leaving europe, especially for people who are at the lower end of the wage scale
and mass immigration from europe is not good a thing. im not as well read up on this subject as others, but im not as thick as others either. the government will have to do lot more for younger people and and train them, instead of just relying on cheap labour from europe. its complex subject economics, just because you feel you know or understand a few facts, doesnt really add up to much imo.
Now I'm confused. Why does the robot revolution mean we should Brexit? I first heard about the fourth industrial revolution at school in the 80s.

There is no reason why we cannot bring in migrant workers to pick fruit or to wipe old folks' bums post-Brexit.
It will be OUR decision based on what we need.
In the pre-EU 1960's and 1970's it was easy to go on fruit-picking "adventures" on the Continent and equally easy for Continentals to come here. It was easy for students to go on trips staying with European families to pick up the lingo, and similar trips to the UK were reciprocated. So many Remainers seem to believe we are going to draw an Iron Curtain across the English Channel. It's nonsense.
This is an interesting one, DO - particularly as you think your brothers are more intelligent than you. Could I just ask that when they argued the economics of Brexit, did you ever get fed the "we're better off making our own deals - we don't have to pay tariffs" line - which has been shot out of the water now, as we now actually know that most of the goods we import from outside the EU arrives tariff-free, as a result of all those cracking trade deals the EU negotiated on our behalf. Did you ever get the "well, the EU are still bound to trade with us on our terms: we have a massive deficit with them". Again, that argument has been smashed out the park, as the EU protects the interests of the Single Market. This is exactly the shite us fervent Remoaners had to counter back in 2016, but the population did not know enough to make an informed decision back then. I'd be very surprised to hear anyone still argue that - unless, of course, they think it'll all be alright because Great Britain is so fvckin great that we can do what we like, to whomsoever we like. Then the argument just boils down to old-fashioned "English entitlement".
Brexit not really going ahead and Norn Iron leaving the UKPlease can someone explain things to me in words of one syllable? I’m SO confused
