Ok we're in a position now where Brexit will pretty much go through now and the National Institute of Economic and Social Research (who knew) have said that we will take a £70Bn hit over the next 10 years because of that decision.
The government have said they will hope to negotiate a better deal than the free trade deal we had in place which seems optimistic based on two small points - Free trade sounds pretty decent, I'm intrigued to see what is better than free; and our negotiating hasn't exactly been 'on point' over the past 3 years.
And there is another small point - in order for the EU to accept our negotiation request of better than free trade they will more than likely want free movement of citizens.
So, after all that, the last 4 years of fighting, the next decade at least of being worse off, and not even mentioning the risks to our NHS etc, what was / is the fucking point?
We can do our own trade deals? We had trade deals in place through the EU - which one's were so bad that we needed to get control of them? Simply put, where on the planet are these markets that we didn't have access to?
WHAT WAS THE FUCKING POINT?
