MvdV> That is what many here fear. That if the Brexit is cancelled "we want a MvdV> better deal" will start all over again.
No, a referendum will say yes or no to remaining in the EU. And if, as I would expect, we vote to remain, there wouldn't be another application to leave for another generation. And who knows what will happen anywhere that far into the future?
If only we can get our domestic circumstances sorted out then there wouldn't be such a clamour to leave. It should be obvious to all that what we were promised three years ago simply isn't going to happen.
Those that are trying hell-for-leather to get us out are simply trying to prove a point of principle, they're not concerned for the man in the street.
MvdV> Actually what the UK was offered on April 2016 was a fantastic deal.
But we didn't have our referendum until June 2016 ...
MvdV> No Euro, no Schengen, a discount on the contribution, access to the MvdV> free market... All the benefits but only part of the duties. The UK MvdV> will never ever get a deal as good as that...
But at the moment we don't have the euro or Schengen. What discount? What access to the free market?
No, we haven't been told that. We've been told that we will have to pay something like £39billion as a divorce bill (or is it euros - anyway it's a lot of money) and it wasn't Boris that told us that.
