If anyone thinks we are going to be in a stronger position in a decade they are having a laugh. The £ will be weaker than the € by then.
Brexited | the worst threads live the longest

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) is joined by CEO Duncan Drasdo and Financial Director Andy Green from the Manchester United Supporters Trust for a special episode on all things behind the scenes at Old Trafford including a brief history of MUST and their aims today, views on INEOS and Sir Jim Ratcliffe so far, and the Old Trafford regeneration.
Brexit has hardly started, and The Guardian has already switched to Welsh, to annoy continental europeans. 
Yeah, it was probably funnier in my head.

Presumably you will be coming back to the UK once we are free from EU tyranny?
Most remainers knew the first bulletpoint would be the case, but this was rubbished by Brexiters.
I wonder what drives May on this, she doesn't believe its the right path to take so i can only imagine its the attraction of power and leading an historic moment. Maybe she just wants to 'win'.
I hope she feels a sense of shame when she parrots views to the public she doesn't believe.

Sadly, I've heard we're already full so they'll have to stay there.
I don't really see it that way, the EU has interests to protect and they have no reason to act leniently. They are not going to be unfair but they are also not going to be nice and comprehensive, it's a business negotiation not a divorce conciliation.
#politicians.
I just see it as a list of basically exactly what we knew back before June was going to be the case. All this shows is that they have little or no appetite for softening their approach, and frankly why should they? They have us over an absolute barrel and they know it. The only question appears to be how long before we realize it ourselves.
I don't know how that was rocket science to understand.
The only way the £ will be close or stronger than the € is if Brexit starts a chain of events which weaken the EU. Get ready for the big boys to start pulling out of London.
The EU is weak, no chain of events need to happen. Look at the economic performance of the EU over the past 10 years. If a chain of events follow on from and in the of vein Brexit the EU will be finished completely within 5-10 years.
I would bet you now that the pound won't become worth less than the Euro and UK won't even enter recession in the next 5 years, unless a recession on a global scale occurred.
Weird you say that, because the bigger economies in EU are still performing decently well over the last 2-3 years. Should the pro EU contenders survive (Macron, Merkel, etc), the EU will be fine.
Definitely. Even better would be them not negotiating on the transitional deal until other matters are agreed (I believe they may have stated this?), forcing investment to move as soon as possible if the prospect of a cliff edge looks even remotely possible. What a fecking shitshow.
Love some of these deluded old timers .Excited that this is going to put a end to all these foreigners coming over here taking our shops.
I'd say over 90%. Ludicrous referendum.
You are probably one of the most patronising posters on here so pot , kettle and black come to mind. Are people limited under the new regime as to how many times people can post?
Please give an example when I wished ill on the UK. As I intend to spend the rest of my life in France which hopefully will remain in the EU, I hope the EU does prosper and is more important than if the UK does. If I had wished the UK ill then I would have been pro-Brexit, makes zero sense.
As a side note out of the top 4 posters, 3 of us don't live in the UK - 2 of us aren't British and the top poster, Stan, totally disagrees with my point of view but that doesn't pose a problem to me.
Or I could do the other trick and post reams and reams of text replying to multiple posts in one post and that would get my post count down.

The only downside is a good portion of them will kick the bucket long, long before they ever admit (even to themselves) to being wrong.
It's worth saying that when May was at the home office the motto was “No-one likes us, we don’t care”(The same quote Millwall fans used).
So I doubt it.
The UK letter linked below.

Depends largely on interest rates, so no not necessarily.
Thank god that Theresa May know exactly what the EU best interests are. I am sure the EU will be lost without the UK advice.
I love that 'We should always put our citizens first.' is point 2 on the list of 'Proposed principles'.
true"The Republic of Ireland is the only country in the EU the UK shares a land border with".... pretty sure you can catch a train to France
Reading May's letter after reading this post is quite amusing. I can't help but interpret the 'On the contrary, the United Kingdom wants the European Union to succeed and prosper. Instead, the referendum was a vote to restore, as we see it, our national self-determination' line as a, look we both know this isn't true, but someones going to release this letter.
Wonder what she's said in private in those referenced talks.
I assume 'White dog shit' came in at no.8.
The 6th point is going to be a problem, the UK wants to have what the EU doesn't want to give.
May's handwriting is dreadful.
Why does it say Tusk at the bottom? Shouldn't it say rt hon t may pm or whatever?
Why does anyone care about lightbulbs?
Its a pretty pitiful list really. Bring back pounds and ounces - is that kind of trivial crap what people were desperate to get back?
They also want corporal punishment in schools and the death penalty. I have a colleague of mine whose surname is Tudor. Considering that most want to drag the UK in medieval times, I should ask him if he's interested to become King of England while at it.
Was wondering this too.
It says 'The Prime Minister' at the top.
I dare say they might have got the template the wrong way round.
Imagine the mental gymnastics we'd see if there was a monarch with absolute power who rejoined the EU.
Would be almost as good as 'I'm voting to leave the EU because of the principal of parliamentary sovereignty, BUT HOW DARE PARLIAMENT GET A VOTE ON THIS'.
Despite not having received permission to post from the Poster Police and the Anti-Free Speech lobby, I will add my twopenny worth.
Why does it say "His Excellency Mr Donald Tusk" at the bottom
Also why does May use "we" so much as if instructing the EU how to proceed on the matter
