Brexit slowly becoming a Farce.

An interview/debate on BBC Radio Kent which is Brexit in microcosm: A man with relevant knowledge and experience (a former international trade negotiator) versus a man who knows nothing (in this case the editor of Brexit Central).

Fair play to the Brexiter guy. It takes a real confidence to hear someone more knowledgeable than you explain clearly why you're mistaken, using facts and evidence, and still go, "Nah, it'll be fine."

This Jacob Rees-Mogg that is criticising Hammond for suggesting there will be an economic downturn for up to 15 years following Brexit - is he the same Jacob Rees Mogg who said a couple of weeks ago that we won't know the benefits of Brexit for 50 years?

Put this in the wrong thread earlier. (BBC Bias by mistake, probably thinking why do the BBC keep wheeling this c**t out for a quote)

Head of WTO says warns that other countries will look to take advantage of Britain in the event of no-deal and that it's "very unlikely" that we'd have WTO agreements ready to go by March.

Jolly good.

On march 20th the UK is going to be the only country in the world with no trade deals with anybody

Mrs CCH's family have a cottage in Fermanagh and we stayed there for a holiday last Summer. Family friend of theirs invited us over for dinner and, in the 6 mile drive between the two houses, we crossed the border 5 times. It went right through the middle of a village, and we crossed it 3 times driving along one road.

Still, I'm sure Rees-Mogg has it all worked out.

You should invite him along the next time.  I’m sure he would be a delightful dinner guest.

He's right about the border being pretty fluid during the bad times, walked over on tracks where there were rumoured to be microphones attached to trees. But the border is a bit of a red herring, it's the economy, North and South, that can only be seriously fucked by leaving the EU. Can't see any upside for Ireland whatever deal.
