Indeed he does, far more important than the eu.
Brexited | the worst threads live the longest
- Thread starter Silva

But what currency will they use in the meantime?
To be fair, keeping your country intact should come before your loyalties to the EU.
It's a nice thought. it'll never catch on
found this article quite interesting.

Is Scotlands economy strong enough to pass the tests required for entry to the EU?
actually its far more important for him then Scotland. Which is fair enough
If they apply the tests as rigorously as they did to Greece then I suspect so
As it is No.
It currently has a 9% deficit GDP ratio. The limit is 3% of GDP. Also, inflation in the UK will exceed 2.5% in the next 12 months. But for political reasons, the EU is always flexible with these things which is counterproductive.

They're somewhat flexible with that 3% these days- seem to remember Germany busting it a while back.
Fast approaching a year without a government. He should focus on that before anything.
Indeed he should
I seem to remember the eu wanting to impose a billion euro fine to any country not meeting the 3%. Complete lunacy as usual
Think you have very little idea what you are talking about - you're the expert who's spent a few summer months faffing about with currencies, right ok , don't listen to experts as per your advice. PS my business was not oil.
Guardian & The Irish Times are collaborating on a week long series of articles focusing on the UK/Ireland relationship post-Brexit.

Paid (highly so) internship on a currency desk at the biggest investment bank in london, Yes. Thats what we call it in literate people speak.
Its far more credible than someone who cant do 5th grade maths.
And yes most "doom n gloom" remain experts are exactly like you, who cant do simple math but talk shit all the time.Seems like you cant read properly as well. Read my post again, I said "like oil", not oil.
Darn you really are tedious to explain things to.

Youre in a bubble.
It does not matter. On second though, scottish independence will not happen before brexit is resolved. Tories will be against a referendum and labour wont support it either.

Ooh an internship! You have understood none of the posts I made and by your previous posts in this thread you have understood very little of what other posters have said or what's going on around you.
Just hope that the institution you work for have not been running any Sterling risk over the past 11 months.

They can consider whatever they want. Its up to the EU to decide whether to accept or not
To be fair, UK paying billions just for Bank's passporting is a great deal for the EU and a horrible one for us.
Well it depends how the individual 27 EU countries sees it. Some treasure their freedom of movement dearly and they wouldn't like the UK to be able to cherry pick the deals they want even though they will have to pay money for it. Others may be salivating at the prospect of a decent number of companies from that sector pitching camp in their own country instead. Others might be asking if that would set a precedent. Would other non European countries like the US, Canada and China start asking access to financial passporting now too?
I think that the UK would have a better chance of getting the deal if it applies for an off the shelf solution instead (ex EEA entrance or the Swiss model). Unfortunately both have freedom of movement incorporated in it and I doubt May can keep its strong xenophobic minority under control to get that.

Commons vote to ratify Brexit deal likely, says No 10

Doesn't chemo have under a 10% five year success rate in being cancer free... or are the brexiteers still fed up of actual stats?
"Ratify" a deal where there will be no other alternative because its too late. Great.
It would be a greater say than the Commons could have received on TTIP, were we a member of the EU. Or similarly in the case of the Lisbon Treaty.
I don't know why but reading all these articles from the economic ministers discussing inflation recently I get the eerie feeling of hearing pretty much the same dog whistle talk before the subprime housing crisis in the US. I'm not as well versed in economics either but my mom is a hedge fund analyst and she kind of gave me a very shaky answer when I spoke to her too.
I was listening to a report which categorised the main drivers behind inflation in 2016 a little earlier, and foremost among them was hotel pricing. Yet with our good summer and depreciated currency, it could be said that this has merely been the sector reacting to the level of demand out there.
The main drivers of inflation form the figures released today were, petrol and clothing. No material impact of the weakening pound on inflation yet, but inevitable in the coming months.
Absolutely. The sequence of events just won't sink in for people. It didn't before the referendum and it hasn't now.
The EU will not negotiate before article 50. Once we have invoked article 50 it is irrevocable, we have to leave, although we do have two years to agree terms, if the EU are willing to, that is.
Parliament's only choice will be whether to ratify any agreement as negotiated, or whether to leave without one, and submit to all that entails.
All May can do now is to decide what terms she will be asking for after invoking the article, which will be neither here nor there anyway if the EU dismiss them as without interest.
Though the fact that petrol is traded in $ and most clothes are manufactured abroad and have typically a short lead time thus the input costart get passed on quicker so I'd argue that they are rising so much because the pound is going down the toilet
I thought that post had killed the thread for a while. Brexit must be the only thing that doesn't cause cancer in DM-land.
So Brexiters are promising cheaper food, I assume by opening up the UK to cheaper non eu imports, but this will endanger British farmers whom the Brexiters have a hard-on for. Which group will they let down first?
Those were mentioned too, although LBC did also refer to hotels and sterling in their coverage of the story.
Considering UK is pretty tight with tourist visas, the EU exit will deal a big blow to the tourism industry as well. You might see a few chains pull out slowly or reduce their presence which again bites the lower wage workers. There's really a lot that's not being factored into the models, if there are any.
I fully expect visa-free or low-cost visas, to be part of whatever deal we reach with our European neighbours. The demand exists for mroe reasons than the EU, and right now the low price of the pound is encouraging more visitors.
Given the government's record I expect they'll demand bank statements, accommodation and itineraries before granting Visas, so the EU will demand the same
