Within the ranks of the Remainers like Jeros
"Remainer"
Just because I am angry at what happend with Brexit does not mean I voted against it.
They seem to forget that the UK has the fifth (or thereabouts) largest economy in the world, and that the EU has a trade surplus of some 75 billion euros with the UK, which they can ill afford to lose. They needed a deal with us more than we needed a deal with them, but they would not admit it, until one minute to midnight on the doomsday clock, and they could see that Britain would walk away if the only deal on offer was a bad one.
Our primary export is services, our primary import from Europe is
physical goods, surely you see an issue here? Without UK trade the
Euros would have to go the yanks or internal banks for their
financial services, without EU imports we would be fucked, they are
over a quarter of our food supply after all. Also it was a bad deal,
for us, because Boris caved on the matters he said he would not,
fishing, oversight etc. We are still going to be EU directives on
certain matters, so what even is the point?
UK Goverment wrote:
EU legislation which applied directly or indirectly to the UK before 11.00 p.m. on 31 December 2020 has been retained in UK law as a form of domestic legislation known as ‘retained EU legislation’. This is set out in sections 2 and 3 of the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018 (c. 16). Section 4 of the 2018 Act ensures that any remaining EU rights and obligations, including directly effective rights within EU treaties, continue to be recognised and available in domestic law after exit.
This is unacceptable, they have codifed EU law into UK law and we both know we will never see it gone.
I don't believe Scotland would leave the UK to rejoin the EU. For one thing, a referendum on that will not be held for at least 30 years, and because in 2014 Scotland voted to remain part of the UK.
That was pre-brexit, westminster managed to scare Scotland into thinking they would be out of the EU if they went independant, that is kinda a moot point now. The Scottish parliment has voted in favor of a 2nd referendum, and majority public support is behind it, its just a matter of setting a date.
