*1. We'd vote to leave.
*2. Government would trigger article 50.
*3. All payments into the E:U would cease immediately.
*4. That same money would by now have re-floated the NHS and made a few people
in need more comfortable.
*5. The government would have put in place post-Brexit plans for employment.
The economy. And social care needs.
*6. WTO trade deals struck around the world.
*7. We'd have left the E:U having had all our future commitments cancelled and
said monies refunded.
*8. Theresa May gets Knighthood for telling Junker and Tusk what they can do
with their single market theology.
*9. The U.S.A applauds and gives the UK the best trade agreement it's ever
seen.
*10. Other E:U countries watch as GB makes a comeback that sees interest rates
stay at 2% for three years consistently.
*11. The ECB fails as smaller E:U nations default on loans they owe.
*12. ECB comes cap-in-hand to the BOE where the security of our children is
assured since Europe will be paying for them during their lifetime.

@Picklebobble2 The Brexit politicians have consistently lied and made promises that they couldn't deliver.

@Burnley123 Stupid state of affairs on all sides.
Listening to the comedians in the House of Commons lately and it's clear many of them don't understand the complexities of being a member of the E:U much less how to successfully leave it !

But it's the fact nobody is talking positively about post-Brexit that makes me feel this current crop of politicians are either there for their own gratification or to maintain a poor status quo that serves the few rather than the many.

@Picklebobble2 £39Billion for the EU sounds like those things aren't happening.
