No one speaks out of turn in Germany youngmafbog. Mrs Murkhell would have em for breakfast. This is the first step in a complete reversal of what the EU was threatening when they were trying to frighten us into a remain vote. Like we said they needed us more than we needed them. Have all the supporters of the EU pyramid scheme, who made their threats to move to Europe, started to go yet? Gelduff would be a good start.

[youngmafbog]

Not seen any luvvies go yet. Shame really you would think they would head straight out to their utopia if it was that good!

they were all paper tigers vefiore the vote, they know the game YMB, they want to flog us their Beamers, mercs and peoples cars. It's business that drives this not the shilling a week politicians. The bosses of industry fund the parties as they do everywhere and the Frau will have been given her orders.

"Britain is likely to state that it is no longer prepared to accept the free movement of workers. Mr Roth said that, without free movement, there would not be full access to the single market."

Well given that a stop to free movement was a (possibly the) main driver for exiting, either he changes that tune or the EU will not be getting full free market access to the UK either.

[whiskeryron]

Full access to the free market works both ways, if Mr Roth wants free access to the UK market he & fellow EU members will wind their necks in a bit.

what's so special about that statement, the UK has always had special status in that the EU gross take of our GDP is 0.6% (before clawbacks/ projects/rebates etc) For the others it is 1 to 1.5 percent.....even Norway pays 1%.

[Togo]

Well we are even more special now, the EUSSR gross take of our GDP is now 0%. We are now precious.
