But, "The influential Evening Standard"? Are you serious? Isn't that the newspaper now edited by Brexit doom and gloom king, and Dodgy Dave's mate, Georgie boy?
They have a right to a biased view, but understand where the Editor is coming from, and it aint a balanced view point.

Re: Brexit: Article 50 Has Been Triggered !
So, reading over the past couple of pages, I see that we cannot model Brexit (so leavers don't actually know what they voted for) But the EU will definitely collapse... So you can't model one country but you can model a union of 27. Is this right?

a sample of 27 is more accurate than a sample of 1 ,thank you for pointing that out .

And that sample of 27, will now only have 9 actual net contributors once we leave, we were in the 10 who do while 18 other member countries get a piggy back.
The fundamental question is and requires only a one worded question....
Sustainable?

Foreign Secretary: Boris Johnson says EU's Brexit bill extortionate and they can 'go whistle'.

Isn't that pretty much how any economically diverse alliance (country) works? eg the UK? - more regions cost the country more than they contribute.

Re: Brexit: Article 50 Has Been Triggered !
It's perfectly obvious that the Beeb has a pro-EU stance. Anything negative economically is portrayed as a whole or partial consequence of Brexit whilst any good news tends to presented as being 'in spite of' Brexit.
Yes we know what effect Sterling has had on our economy but it wasn't that long ago that it was virtually at parity with the Euro and over the last decade it's only been at a significantly higher level for a few years and that had nothing to do with Brexit.

Beloved Conservatives? Really? Hatred of Labour and their track record doesn't require love of the alternative you know. The Tories are the least worst option right now and at least they honoured the previous PM's promise of a referendum unlike the Labour party who reneged on theirs.
As for coalitions, minority governments and the like, forgotten the Lib-Lab pact have you? Wasn't that long ago that your chum Corbyn wanted his own minority government. I suppose another Labour Govt. which even fewer people voted for would be much better in your opinion. Classic hypocrisy as usual.

Whereas Corbyn's communist Labour party would never have dreamed of doing anything like that...

Maybe so, but they'll still be full of hypocrisy and the proverbial you know what!! (and it's a slow day so could do with a giggle)
