Total 'Remainer' stitch up evidenced by the solid wall of Euro despots chanting ”theres no other deal” and foolish Macaroni and that Spaniard hissing vieled threats about fishing and Gib.

Time to stop wasting time , call their bluff and just leave' inserting earplugs to silence their squeals of anguish.

Just tell the EU we are leaving and they will not get the £ 39 billion, then let them scream.

The only bluff that's been called is JRM's, and that was a big load of nothing.

What happened to 'Germany will give us a deal because of their car manufacturers'? And 'they export more to us than we do to them'? The Brexiters said the EU were just trying to scare us into voting remain and we could easily get a better deal. The Brexiters were lying.

Perhaps mistaken is the correct term instead of lying.. You do show your predjudices so transparently.

We got a rotten deal because..

a. The EU want to discourage others

b. The EU are,attempting to make us stay

The only course now is to call their bluff and just leave. It will come back to bite the EU on the bum ;-)

You were mistaken; Boris et al were lying. It's not a surprise that the EU would want to discourage others, or that they would prefer us to stay. We knew this long before referendum day, they told us enough times. A rotten deal was always the only thing on offer.

Now you just need to drop this other mistaken idea that no deal is some kind of weapon against the EU. Imagine holding the blade of a sword and jabbing the other person with the hilt - that's the equivalent.

Who was foolish enough to listen to Boris? Seems to be Remainers like yourself…

The EU have been making things impossible. They will regret it.

Hey, you can pretend you never believed the myths if you want, but you're still fooling yourself. When it comes to trade, size matters. Whatever damage a hard Brexit would do to the EU, it'll do 10 times more to us. Just wait and see.
