Britain Can Be Better Off Outside The Eu

[-Talbot-]

Britain can be better off outside the EU and insist that the Labour party has no principled objection to ending the free movement of European workers in the UK.

Old Yorkshire saying ... Well bu gger my rags!

Can be, not will be.

Corbyn was never a Europhile. He voted against the Lisbon and Maastrict Treaties. He is admitting that Brexit will happen, only problem his, most of his parliamentary troops are still in denial.

I know what it says, Gromit.
How did you get the impression that I thought Corbyn was a soothsayer?

Another one is "Well, I'll go to the foot of our stairs!''

This is a Question and Answer site.

Since you failed to ask a question, I made an observation. Sorry if you do not like it, but why post if you don't don't want replies. I did say you thought Corbyn was a soothsayer, I posted that what he said is not astonishing if you know his voting record.

...did *not say Corbyn was a soothsayer...

As I never set out to ask a question, I didn't fail to ask a question.
Of course replies are welcome but why are you telling me what is says in my OP?


I am particularly interested in what mikey has to say about Corbyn coming clean.

Of course Britain can be better off outside the EU, we will be free to broaden our horizons and trade with the rest of the World not just some dictatorial bloc.

As for Jezza I firmly believe his 'X' was in the 'OUT' box.

// we will be free to broaden our horizons and trade with the rest of the World //

We can and do trade with the rest of the world, now. We have never been restricted on who we can trade with.

Trading with other EU countries was made easier, (and less costly) so exporters tended to concentrate on the deals that made them the most money for the least amount of work. Exporters will have to work harder when we leave the EU, but they will.

Does EU membership help us negotiate free trade deals with the rest of the world?

Tariff-free access to the fast growing, protected markets of Asia, Africa and Latin America would be worthwhile. Unfortunately, EU membership prevents us negotiating free trade deals – and the EU has negotiated few deals for us: none with China, India, Australia, Brazil.
