    What does the UK leaving the EU mean for us?

    Stop using facts.....facts are inconvenient and highlight misconceptions! Sent from my MotoG3 using Diabetes.co.uk Forum mobile app

    What does the UK leaving the EU mean for us?

    So, you think they will allow us to dither other it. They already said issue article 50 now and start negotiations immediately, they want it done. Sent from my MotoG3 using Diabetes.co.uk Forum mobile app

    What does the UK leaving the EU mean for us?

    You know, I checked my comment again, and I made no predictions. The EU had already committed to investing £1.8 billion in Wales, that's a fact! Referencing what happened in the 80's is hardly a prediction, and successive UK governments certainly haven't invested in deprived areas of Britain...

    What does the UK leaving the EU mean for us?

    I know, I can see it simply not happening. All we have right now is infighting on all sides of the Commons, and none of them are fit to oversee anything, let alone the exit from the EU. Sent from my MotoG3 using Diabetes.co.uk Forum mobile app

    What does the UK leaving the EU mean for us?

    I agree, people have to accept different opinions. The result of this referendum doesn't automatically mean those who disagree with it have to like it, and vice versa. We can all avoid name-calling and being derogatory to each other though. Sent from my MotoG3 using Diabetes.co.uk Forum mobile app

    What does the UK leaving the EU mean for us?

    Actually, there is a two year time limit for the negotiations, article 50 to be issued and for the exit to be finalised. The EU want it done asap. Sent from my MotoG3 using Diabetes.co.uk Forum mobile app

    What does the UK leaving the EU mean for us?

    Oh dear. That sovereignty thing was yet another lie. I don't just have T1 diabetes, i also have Cohn's disease, and following a very serious operation in 2011, I was treated appallingly by this government. They even decided I had been cured of an incurable illness, and the only thing that...

    What does the UK leaving the EU mean for us?

    £1.8 billion that our own government would never have pumped into Wales. The EU was effectively doing what successive UK governments refused to do, and invest in rundown areas with low unemployment. Those areas have been left to rot since the 1980's or since the industries that provided the bulk...

    What does the UK leaving the EU mean for us?

    Those restrictions were by and large a myth. Mostly, the Tories objected to not being able to discard the European Human Rights Convention as it took precedent over them riding roughshod over people. The thing about bendy bananas was made up by the Daily Mail, as were other such restrictions...

    What does the UK leaving the EU mean for us?

    The lack of control thing was yet another lie. Out of the last 200 laws put through parliament, 6 were supplanted by EU bills. When the Tories have complained about EU laws, they are mostly against having troublesome things like equality laws, human rights and workers rights that are designed to...

    What does the UK leaving the EU mean for us?

    The same costs, but none of the benefits. Essentially, that means, we would have to pay that £250million per week, then provide subsidies to the farming industry on top of it as well, as the EU will no longer provide the £80 million a week they send back to farmers! Sent from my MotoG3 using...

    What does the UK leaving the EU mean for us?

    Certainly is, and the ironic thing is, the EU was taking that money from the UK government and throwing it into deprived areas all over the UK, Hull and Liverpool being two others, when the UK government has refused to provide any funding.

    What does the UK leaving the EU mean for us?

    The loss to Wales will actually amount to billions, because the EU had committed £1.8 billion by 2020 to be invested in regeneration schemes and projects aimed at bringing further outside investment in, and therefore generating huge numbers of jobs. Sent from my MotoG3 using Diabetes.co.uk...

    What does the UK leaving the EU mean for us?

    It's what the majority of them always do, and it's why Johnson et al campaigned to leave, they were thinking about their own careers. Sent from my MotoG3 using Diabetes.co.uk Forum mobile app

    What does the UK leaving the EU mean for us?

    Does it really matter what they think at all, they have enough wealth for whatever happens next to not affect them, it's the rest of us who have to put up with any fall out. Sent from my MotoG3 using Diabetes.co.uk Forum mobile app

    What does the UK leaving the EU mean for us?

    It's article 50 of the Lisbon treaty, and it's the clause that any EU country has to trigger in order to, and if it wishes to exit the EU. Sent from my MotoG3 using Diabetes.co.uk Forum mobile app

    Teresa May is a half wit, just like the rest of them, they gambled on being able to stab Cameron in the front once he had issued article 50, and it's backfired on them. Sent from my MotoG3 using Diabetes.co.uk Forum mobile app

    What does the UK leaving the EU mean for us?

    I know you're trying to be light-hearted, but all of the Tory government knows exactly what issuing article 50 will entail, and how much they will have to deal with, so none if them, even the women want to do it! The whole lot if them have already backtracked on their referendum pledges, they...

    What does the UK leaving the EU mean for us?

    No one in this current government wants to issue clause 50. The leave campaigners wanted Cameron to issue it and take the flack for it and deal with all the potential headaches. However, he’s refused to do that, announced his resignation and said it's up to his successor. Johnson is effectively...
