Lol Bobble... our correspondents in the UK + our "experts" on both our channels that actually provide the news (yes, when you are dutch belgian, you have 2 channels that actually have a news broadcast) are so confused that they don't know what to say annymore.
We are amazed, because we are used to talk about our own pickled situation.
You go guys! You go! 🐥

@Picklebobble2 I'm not sure about this, but I think we are confusing a lot of things right now 🤯. I need to hit the books for this one, but this reasoning doesn't make sense to me at the moment.

@Picklebobble2 I agree with a lot you say , but on line shopping is closing shops in high street so much cheaper

@Budwick Oh don't be silly ! That's FAR too sensible an idea !
ALL of this is David Cameron's fault !
He spent years cutting services and benefits to his OWN people yet INSISTED on spending the same huge sums at the E:U.
Somebody made the suggestion that if he just cut the E:U budget he could sort the economy.
He refused to do so, battle lines were drawn, political agitators on behalf of the wealthy got involved.
Here's the subsequent mess.

@Picklebobble2 Starting to see that the back story is complicated - it's always complicated.
My two cents is that in the long term it would be best for every country to maintain it's sovereignty. I hope it works out well for the UK. For what it's worth - we're pulling for you guys!

@Budwick The big places to do trade with these days are the emerging markets in China; India and though i hate to say it, probably the Arab nations.
The E:U has a lot of 'undisclosed/hidden' debt. America is in a massive productivity slump and companies aren't investing in people. And this has been going on for nearly ten years !
We've had slumps and depressions and recessions before. But i've never known a time when ALL our politicians were so completely clueless as to what to do for the best.

VOTE RESULT 22:11
Motion: That the House of Commons takes control of the Parliamentary process tomorrow and spends the day debating and voting to remove the 'No deal' option from the Brexit leaving Agreement
Ayes - 328
Naes - 308
So tomorrow all Parliamentary business stops and the day is spent trying to convince a majority to vote to ensure that whoever is in government withdraws 'No Deal' and thereby is given the instruction to get a deal or not withdraw from the EU.
And there are already fireworks in The House of Lords !
