    That would be a well balanced poll wouldn't it chico...

    Latest poll with a balanced target group was 40% 32% 28% for Remain, Leave and don't know respectively. However, it is of little importance when brexit has been written into the rule book.

    The only detail remaining is what type of brexit. If it is a hard brexit and I am forced out of Europe, I hope to god you have a rock to hide under. Wife probably won't be able to join me so I'm likely to be like a berserker on steroids. I'll be playing tories and ukip fookers like dvorak played a piano keyboard.

    No, I'd say possibly it would be targeted towards the younger age group,which would be pretty significant considering the younger age group,predominantly voted remain.

    With some degree of certainty I can say that any Facebook poll is lacking credibility due to the fact that few intelligent people would ever give it the time of day because its most vociferous contributors are generally lobotomised cretins.

    You're a regular on there, I presume?

    So Little England's ace card in the negotiation is to refuse to pay 39 Billion to the trading block that makes $17.1 Trillion annually?

    fwiw I think the critics of Brexit are right that Brexit will lead to disaster, mainly due to our weak, incompetent and farcical half hearted leadership. No precedent, so nobody knows for sure, but as it stands that is what Brexit looks like. It may improve, Britain could do a better job of managing on its own, can't do much worse, so flip a coin on what it'll look like by 2025-2030; let's say 25% positive vs 75 negative, or choose your own numbers.

    As others have suggested though for different reasons and generally littered with profanity against calm and coherent argument, Britain's contribution to the future of Europe pales in comparison to that of the juggernaut EU's contribution to the future of Europe. This is the monster we should be looking at, and it is doomed, cannot survive with or without Britain and with or without the next in line to leave, and that's the catastrophe facing the world, socially, economically, across the board. My guess is as no amount of tape can hold it together, its leaders and stronger members will abandon the concept of fair play and it'll be us first and to hell with the women and children.

    So while the critics scoff at their vision of Britain moving on from now, how about posting your vision of the EU by 2025-2030, and when that arrives we can all have a good laugh at your naivete.

    The Eu's $17.1 trillion you quote does of course include the UK's $2.6 trillion, or slightly more than 15%.

    Is that why the results are posted on TD and discussed?

    Point being, of the current EU's 28 nation GDP, 15% is currently being provided by the UK, and second only to Germany in economic size terms. The UK, were it to be outside the EU already, is the EU's largest export market at around 16%, slightly more than the US.

    The BBC, give it a rest.

    Those Brit hating Islamophilic shirtlifting hypocrites would sell the country down the river for 10 franks. Their reporting, opinions and bias are from comedy central and beyond parody.

    Tax, is it the realisation that Britain is about to fuck itself royally but most of the population are too fucking stupid to distinguish its arse from a hole in the ground to see it that is now troubling you?

    Normally, folk who rail against the BBC are either insane or retarded, but either way, it ain't a good sign.

    Whatever one might think of them most of the Beeb are intelligent chappies and as we all know no one with an ounce of sense actually believes Brexit is anything other than a pig's anus with a donkey cock fucking it.

    EU trade with the UK accounts for 3% of combined EU GDP, whereas, vice versa, trade with the EU accounts for 13% of UK GDP.

    Britain is fucked. Royally. And the kicker is, no matter what duties are levied on British goods coming into the EU, the Brits will not reciprocate and will make sure prices stay the same because the government cannot risk the retarded English realising they were lied to.

    Anyway, the truth is, in Europe most couldn't give a fuck about Brexit.

    The arrogance of the UK will be its downfall. The EU should not bend the rules just to make one country happy- the remaining EU countries that don't endanger the EU have more rights and say than England.

    I think you have it the wrong way round, it's the arrogance of the EU which will lead to it's own downfall. Of the 7 member states of the G7, 3 are currently outside the EU (US, Canada and Japan). The EU has now trade deals with Japan and Canada with no requirement for the "Four Freedoms", so seriously, what is the issue of having the same with the UK, other than seemingly bent on meting out punishment.

    Nothing stupid about it at all. It’s been staring you in your willfully blind face for more tha 2 years. The EU are so scared of he avalanche of leavers following Brexit, they will stoop to anything in order to try and punish the U.K.

    All it’s doing is bringing forward the demise of the failed state. None of the scum running the show want the gravy train to stop.

    In addition to the typical Brexshit demographic of the stupid, the ignorant, the deluded and the merely addled ( the latter being well represented here on TD), there is another distinct group which is typified by a perverse desire to see the destruction of Europe as it exists now in order to feed their neuroses that anything good that exists outside of their miserable British construct must fail lest the British model of dull mediocrity be seen to be what it is, a slough of despond populated by lumpen oafs and mere sacks for food waiting to be slit open and dumped on dunghills of oblivion.
    They're usually old, ugly, desiccated collections of bones and suppurating intestines held within decrepit pus bags of wrinkled skin, unintelligent and bereft of purpose other than as a contribution meeting the world's appetite for fertiliser.
    Really, they are just a bunch of walking zombie stiffs waiting for their death certificates.

    England can always claim back Canada and join the EU trade agreement through them

    It's only the Channel Islands the French really want. That and Gibraltar for the Spanish.
