Re: Post-Brexit Thread
It's be bloody typical if our chumps give us what will be an arguably worse deal than the one we left . I wouldn't put it past them.

Passporting is not about banks moving headquarters, it's about the inability of UK banks to work within the EU, how would we not notice the loss to GDP?

Well yes, hence the problem.
To me it seems there are two options on the table now no matter what Boris is saying to win the leadership:
- EEA - We sign up to the four freedoms, essentially single market member but with free movement. Least disruptive to the economy.
- Trade deal - No single market access, no free movement but this option will be the worst economically
The fantasy of having the single market without migration has to be cast aside now. The new Tory leader is going to have to choose what he or she wants to deliver on. Do they want to risk hurting the economy or do they want to break the promise on migration?
Both options though allow them to say they've freed the UK from the ECJ.

We could as Big Brian says do private deals with those European countries that still want to deal with us but I'm guessing that most of Europe is either in the EU or in the EEA.
I suppose we might be able to do deals with countries like Switzerland and others in a similar state but would the deals be global deals covering all products or will we have to do several trade deals with each country for specific products. Germany may do a car deal with us so it can sell their cars to us and we can sell ours to them, but the deal might just be limited to cars.
The EU will no doubt have worked out that we could access the single market indirectly by simply making deals with individual countries in the EU and have probably come up with a strategy to block that.
Ordinary shoppers may still be able to access European products through agencies like Amazon who are based in the EU and who sell to the world.
There's also the issue of bank passporting which allows our banks to operate in Europe...or not!!
It's all very much in the air at the moment.

Honestly there's a few folks here who'd make exceptionally poor trade deal negotiators I must say...

Hi Osem,
I think we are just debating possibilities at the moment. It could be that the EU is acting tough running a bluff but will actually cave to do a deal if push comes to shove.
We are only going on the limited info coming out of the EU at the moment. We'll only find out the truth when the negotiations start and we'll really need our poker faces to see us through.

Re: Post-Brexit Thread
I wonder how this would work:
Keep free movement but remove all benefits to anyone coming here.
If they have/get a job and earn sufficient wages to pay sufficient tax then they get access to the nhs. None of this council house/tax credit/child benefit to send back to Latvia etc malarkey. Come here and earn enough to support yourself because there are no hand outs if you don't.
That would probably sort the wheat from the chaff at a stroke.
Thoughts?

Yes of course, we are doing just that but national panic doesn't assist our position around the negotiating table one little bit and people, especially the media, really need to realise that. If they want a decent deal at the end of all of this they have to play the game the right way and hold our nerve.
There's a deluge of bad news being 'hidden' within the EU right now and as it comes to light people are going to start remembering why we were so unhappy with the EU in the first place. I should be remembered that a good many of those who voted to remain weren't exactly overjoyed by the EU's track record or direction of travel, they just thought it was a slightly safer bet. Hardly a ringing endorsement of the Brussels elite...

Re: Post-Brexit Thread
Since when has "free movement" been a pre-condition of trade deals around the world? Trade deals are about trade.

No member of the EU can make their own trade deals with third parties. That was one of the arguments to leave, our inability to do so.

IIRC there isn't a large amount of benefit money going to EU migrants. The vast majority come because they can earn a lot more here than they do at home.

In successful negotiations, it needs to be win-win, and give and take; if we gain, and others lose (and vice-versa), it just leads to discontent and a breakdown in negotiations...

Re: Post-Brexit Thread
Both sides have yet to get into the real detail but the wording from the EU was interesting in that they "would fight" to not allow the uk to trade without free movement, they are in the position to insist on it but are not using that wording. There is more going on behind the scenes right now that nobody except those involved know about and until we get a pm with a spine and invoke article 50 uncertainty will continue and I think that's what is behind David Cameron's behaviour since the referendum.

Seems unlikely.

The four main principles
You are covered by the legislation of one country at a time so you only pay contributions in one country. The decision on which country's legislation applies to you will be made by the social security institutions. You cannot choose.
You have the same rights and obligations as the nationals of the country where you are covered. This is known as the principle of equal treatment or non-discrimination.
When you claim a benefit, your previous periods of insurance, work or residence in other countries are taken into account if necessary.
If you are entitled to a cash benefit from one country, you may generally receive it even if you are living in a different country. This is known as the principle of exportability.
