May has got all there is to be had from Europe - Europe doesn't need the U.K. but it's turned out that The U.K sure as hell needs Europe
1.3 million Brits live and work in E.U. countries, at least 36,000 of them are drawing unemployment benefit.


More little jimmie rubbish! May is merely a duplicitous closet remainer, hellbent on betrayal.
Britain is the second largest economy in Europe and the EU exports considerably more to the uk than the UK exports to the EU. £100billion more in 2017. UK exports to the EU represent 13.4% of the British economy and our EU exports have been declining for some years. Germany in particular would be hit by a hard brexit. They export around £22billion of an imbalanceto to the UK. Our total exports to the EU are actually in decline over the last few years.
As has been said many times, it is money makes the world go round, not morality, or even politics. We can probably excuse the lefties for their ignorance of these facts, because it is always other people's money they spend and thus have little idea as to how it is created.
