EU have decided they're not giving us shit.
But the EU need the UK more than the UK need the EU, I thought May was going to instruct the EU what they were going to give her.

May and the rest of the Tories have played it so badly. Constantly bitching, moaning and insulting the very people they are negotiating with from an already weak negotiation position.
This whole "Brexit means Brexit" narrative of completely smashing the relationship to peices and burning all bridges to appease the worst of the nationalists is so poorly thought out. They should have been working hard to build an amicable relationship which makes a beneficial deal more likely. Instead they've given every excuse to make an example of how damaging leaving the union will be for a country.

Yip. Britain is going to get nowhere in these negotiations.
And the Tories and UKIPpers will blame the EU bureaucrats and cite it as evidence they hate us and we are better off out.
Most likely yes. The future looks very insular in Britain I think.
My Girlfriend and I are seriously thinking about leaving Britain in a few years time. The future is bleak.

The economic outlook is grim. Basic goods are going to raise in price far higher than wages will rise.
I can understand that if you're from a generation that never knew anything other than the EU that their is some nervousness, but to bail before a deal is done is a bit knee jerk. Where would you go btw?
Australia or New Zealand.
They have immigration control (they're obviously racist lol), on what basis would you qualify?

They have a points system to make sure the "rif-raff" don't get through and they send naval ships to block immigrants, I wouldn't hold Aus as a beacon of light in the World.
Fwiw @Chorley1974 , the UK also has quite tough immigration control and let in hardly any desperate Syrian refugees in their hour of need, an absolutely pathetic number they allowed in compared to Germany & Sweden.
But if you're from a first World country, it's really no problem to get around the point system and move to Australia.
Imagine wanting to move because you think you can make a better go of it somewhere else. Bloody snowflake

"We must not be punitive, but at the same time it's clear that Europe knows how to defend its interests, and that Britain the UK will have a less good position tomorrow outside the EU than today in the EU."
Speaking earlier, French President Francois Hollande said there would inevitably be "a price and a cost for the UK - it's the choice that was made".
The European common market has launched in 1957 but wasn't actually realised unti, you won't find too many who have worked in a time when we haven't benefited from it. We now facing leaving without any trade deal in place meaning a mass recession is around the corner.

People who remember the time before the EU should be the most worried, we were fecked in the 70's.
I always thought you lot were all about personal responsibility and taking back control of your lives?boo hoo, taking my ball home....

The UK does have tough non EU immigration, my wife is in that category, so we have paid thousands for visas or the past 7 years. The rules for Aus aren't bent for first world country, I wouldn't just assume you can get in.

I have 7 really close mates living over there on PR, trust me, if you wanna get in from a first World country, it's a piece of piss.
Maybe the people I know aren't greasing the wheels in the same way.
Only one of those mates has a degree. There's a chef, a lad who worked in hospitality, a couple in recruitment, a girl in PR, and a labourer.
Getting PR in Aus is easy street, hell, just watch a few episodes of "Wanted down under" and you'll see what they accept![]()
Yeah but having a degree isn't what they necessarily need, they have a shit load of grads already. It's like the UK will be post brexit, we'll need a load of workers for less skilled job roles, it's not going to be about letting in those with the best degrees.

Talk about simplification, we joined the EU and it fixed the countryYes the EU moved the UK to a services economy

Exactly.
But if you're "skilled" and from Syria, you're fecked, no chance.
Thought these were exactly the people the Uk didn't want and would be filled by all those Brits that are out of work.
Gee, I guess it was a complete coincidence..
Not sure what you're smoking Paul, who's political narrative are you quoting?
Yep, the EU set up London to become the world's financial services powerhouse, I'd forgotten about that.
So the Uk has no problems about all those low-skilled Poles taking all their jobs, you can't make this up
Presumably when thousands of jobs and billions of pounds of business leave London after Brexit, that will also be a complete coincidence?
