Having to speak to the too numerous to count customer services "hotlines" over the last two years has really been irksome. Having to wait anything from 20 mins to 1 hour in order to speak to someone (where I then get cut off)... Suffering appalling line quality or the constant barking of dogs in the background..

Are there queues waiting for P&O Ferries in Calais?

Don’t forget that a “full brexit” has yet been established. We are still letting goods through. We still don’t have the infrastructure to perform sps checks et al.…or that that the new third country visa regime has yet started..

Add a one at the front of that number... http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/magazine/6260516.stm

They don't know...so do people think that Labour are still the saviours?

A full Brexit has not yet happened yet - which is supposed to come in to effect by July 2022, where checks are applied to EU goods. At the moment, its an open door.

I’m a Mongolian bot..get it right!

So you'd vote, but then realise your decision is futile?

Please enlighten me.. Would you vote at the next election?

Brexit has killed Labour, and its a dying party. Remaining within the EU would have have meant more of the same....and people would have been resigned to it... The Westminster system of govt is utterly broken. There was just a veneer over it all.

So we can't put food on the table if we're out of the EU. and that we have to rely on EU membership to do so? Labour are an absolute shambles of a party. Pretty much unelectable.. The Tories aren't far behind...

Its answered the question whether we wanted to continue to remain as an EU member state.. You expect Labour to take you back in? They're a broken party...

So you think just rejoining will put everything to bed, and that's that...Yeah, right...

So as a country, we can only function if we are part of the EU... Dare we vote the other way...

You do realise that we've left the single market.. What else do you suggest we do... Feel sorry for ourselves for ever more? Or actually start becoming proactive?

During the debate, where was the progressive argument for staying in, rather than relying solely on its economic "merits"...

All political entities are not holier than thou, however many remainers sees the EU as a shining beacon of democracy and accountability.

I'm not advocating getting rid of JIT...its going to be a natural progression that we're going to move away from it especially with the EU, seeing as we've left the single market.

Just from "big tech"...$114m in the last year, on EU digital economy policies.. https://www.reuters.com/technology/google-facebook-microsoft-top-eu-lobbying-spending-study-2021-08-30/ https://euobserver.com/institutional/150406

How much is thrown at the EU from lobbyists?
