...no doubt the 5C will come along and pour scorn on this deal but hey that's their job!

Zacs, I do not dispute the figures but no one knows or can accurately calculate what they would have been without the crises that have befallen us and the EUSSR since the instant we left. The 5C continually bandy the numbers about as evidence that brexit has cost but we do not and cannot actually know the true monetary effects of brexit.

//Yeah, downwards//

That doesn't make sense. We lost trade when we left the EU, therefore from that position new trade must take us in an upward direction.

The price of waffle is definitely on the rise.

If I lost £100 and then found a pound coin, I am still worse off than I was before losing the £100.

‘ We lost trade when we left the EU’

Finally, an admission.

[naomi24]

You never know, corby, you might find two hundred pounds next week. What will you say then?

[naomi24]

I've never said otherwise, zacs.

[Zacs-Master]

‘no one knows or can accurately calculate what they would have been without the crises that have befallen us and the EUSSR since the instant we left’

You can try to polish the turd anyway you wish, Tora. How do you account for the UK losses being twice as big as remaining member countries?
‘£26 billion to £55 billion, about twice as big as the £12 billion to £28 billion income loss in the rest
of the EU combined'

Naomi, it wasn’t what you thought it was going to be though was it?

[naomi24]

That isn't about what I thought it was going to be. I'm happy with the result.

[Zacs-Master]

Of course it isn’t (puzzled face emoji).

You must surely be somewhat disappointed with the economic downturn given your hopefulness expressed for the prediction in my link to your post though?

[naomi24]

Not at all. We're out.

[Zacs-Master]

Yipeeeee!

[Zacs-Master]

Seriously tho, Naomi, you’re happy that a predicted £140b net gain turned, according to the LSE, into a £26-£55b loss?

File under 'well at least...'

Most brexiters do not have the courage to admit they got it wrong

oh well, it’s done now and the rest of us will just have to live with the consequences… i am pleased that we are joining CPTPP it is better than nothing and who knows the USA might rethink its position in a decade or so

[naomi24]

I wonder how many would stay with dominating spouse for fear of going it alone and being prepared to work to rebuild a life free of someone else's control? You Remainers are so weak. You know the price of everything and the value of nothing - but moan on, as is your preference. This country will survive and thrive despite it.

[douglas9401]

Good heavens! So angry today Naomi. x

[naomi24]

Are you. douglas? That's a shame. Perhaps it's the weather.

untitled: "Most brexiters do not have the courage to admit they got it wrong " - that's because we didn't, most remoaners haven't got the courage to admit that it was not only about money. We wanted out of the EUSSR we wanted our country back from unelected bureaucrats. If it cost monetarily then fine. Why can the 5C not see that it's not only about money?
