Subject: RE: BS: Post Brexit life in the UK
"The benefits of leaving do not have to be purely financial we might be getting somewhere."
As the main selling point of Brexit was aimed at getting rid of immigrants, most decent people don't regard that as a "benefit"
The sharp rise in racist incidents immediately following the decision was evidence that this was an effective argument.
Should Britain have to crash out of Europe, as seems possible, one of the first 'benefits' will be having to come with the possible enforced return of the million plus Brits now living in Europe, thirty two thousand of them now drawing hardship and unemployment benefit on the continent
Only one of Farage's Feeble Minded could regard that as a satisfactory exchange for the immigrants prevented from settling in Britain.
Trump's trade war is hardly likely to benefit Britain
Isn't it about time you started to explain what these 'other' benefits will ever be should this particular 'Pie-in-the Sky' ever get baked?
