You sound annoyed that we've left and want to play hardball.
Are you worried where the money is now going to come from for countries like your own? Could it be that the likes of Great Britain, Denmark, Germany, the Netherlands and others are absolutely fed up of paying for small countries which have always been economic basketcases?
You have all taken an inch and mile and now the party is over.

Yes they are liars, but again not my point. My point is you're tolerating it because it suits you.
The points about the cost of membership well? Hardly. Ignoring all the supposed economics benefits of the EU as that's up for debate, they conveniently ignored direct UK investment and the rebate in order to inflate the figure as high as possible.
Regarding ECJ and ECHR, is there anything to suggest we will even pull out of these since leaving the EU is not the same thing.
At least we have an increase in debt interest to look forward to now!

How am I tolerating it? I said I would wait and see what resulting deal is.
Money that we didn't have control over but which we do now.Quote:

I've seen contradictory statements regarding the CTA, our Taoiseach himself has come out and said he doesn't know what will happen.
I'm not annoyed in the slightest and I don't want a second referendum, re Ireland we can only hope to benefit from your losses. I am however annoyed that we have been given no confirmation regarding the CTA, which is why I want the process to begin ASAP. I have set up a life here and I'm in a long term relationship, without confirmation of my status who will want to hire me?
I do appreciate anything you have to offer me though
edit: apparently Cameron meets Kenny tonorrow to discuss it and can shed some light on it for us.
Our losses? I think you've got it back to front. We've always been one of the top contributors into this paying for countries such as your own. That's coming to an end now so I think you've got the wrong end of the stick. It's the Republic which will now have to pay more in as well as the other states to fill the UK shortfall. :) Enjoy! At least you managed to get decades worth of money out of it in return for your independence, we've been milked the entire 43 years we've been a member.
On working here, I think you've got wrong impression. Nobody has said anybody will be sent home and nobody has said that people with links or a reason to be here won't be allowed to be here. Even if the border between Ulster and the Republic is re-introduced, there's no reason at all why the CTA cannot be maintained. As far as I know Her Majesty's Government is keen on retaining the CTA, however if your masters in Brussels say otherwise then that's not our problem but your problem.
You're tolerating Leave using misleading statistics and giving false promises. You've probably commented on Remain using fear tactics and found that infuriating, but seem to be perfectly fine with Leave.
But an entirely different sum of money is my point. I don't care if it's actually £1 or £100 billion, £350 million was misleading as hell.Quote:

OK (this was a genuine question lmao)Quote:

We've only just been downgraded it seems.Quote:

What do you mean tolerating?
Since when was I on the board of Vote Leave? I make my own points on here without consulting Dominic Cummings.
All depends how you work it out. The good news being that "How much do we pay into the EU?" won't even be a question anymore pretty soon.Quote:

i never spoke ill about the outcome in this thread at all, I havent established a career here, I'm working retail until September when I graduate my postgrad. I think I have rational reason to worry when i want to be applying for jobs in the next few weeks, and there has been nothing said about the CTA. My fear isn't being deported or kicked out, it's at my opportunities being tainted by the delay
You're tolerating it by being OK with the £350 million figure. You're tolerating it by being OK with Boris Johnson (who didn't even turn up to a Brexit debate today I should add - and I say him specifically because he was very much Remain and judging by the fact he wrote a Leave and Remain article recently then he probably has no real preference). Etc.
I mean, regardless if Brexit happens or not (I'm still banking on not) it probably will since we will be involved in some shape or form :PQuote:

Yes. People are tired of experts!Quote:
