I actually hope Brexit will turn out well too. Can't see it but I hope it does. It would be less painful than going into reverse...provided going forwards was not even more painful.

So if your 80% number is true and there are 4-8m EEA citizens living in the UK, that means there are 1-2m internal EEA migrants shared among the 450m population of the EEA. Is that your claim?

rollover Posted July 1, 2020 Share Posted July 1, 2020 Quote Johnson warned by business on ‘hugely damaging’ no-deal Brexit More than 100 UK company chiefs, entrepreneurs and business groups have written to the prime minister warning that it would be “hugely damaging” to the economy if Britain leaves the EU without a deal at the end of this year. Businesses “simply do not have time or capacity to prepare for big changes in trading rules by the end of the year — especially given that we are already grappling with the upheaval caused by coronavirus”.

It is a reasonable assumption that a fair fraction of the number you quote are actually still Some of these people in their old age ir thei children who did not want to do national service in germany, such as i have met. The uk, being an island, does not really have an equivalence to this, except i guess anglo irish such as bernard shaw etc. Edited July 1, 2020 by debtlessmanc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have leavers moaning and whinging that the influx of EE's caused Brexit....because 'we had no control' .... now we have an elected Brexit gov telling the same people that we will have a large influx of people...but it's ok....because we have control? Effect is the same. The same leavers will have the same problem...they have been trained not to want 'the other'. Personally, I welcome them. With open arms. Just as I welcomed the EE's.

At this point, the reasonable sane brexiters are rather quite. Sadly, this gives the impression that all the leavers are idiots, but is sample bias perhaps.

Maybe that the point of the Huawei kerfuffle - the USA couldn't be seen as the only major trading partner left Brexiters could go begging to.
