However, that's like leaving your partner, and setting fire to the house - you might feel better at the time, but you end up paying more in the end....

Maybe but I was making the point that we *could* chose that path and nothing is fixed unlike the remainers keep saying.

'Remoaners' will 'remoan'. It's what they do.

You are not to mention 'winners' and 'losers' on this forum you know that. It is regarded as childish.
I thought also we should not mention 'remoaners' but it seems to be ok? Very confusing for all us winners and no doubt for all the losers remoaners remaineers

Good based on his email he seems entirely unsuited to the post, you can but hope it was an isolated incident, I can't imagine his God will be entirely pleased with his outburst either but let's hope it's more forgiving than the Reverend seems to be.

If you read the article you will see that if we simply left the EU then all flights into and out of the UK would end overnight, which would cause a meltdown in the country. The full article in the FT explains why. But I appreciate, as you say, that we can do this technically.

Re: UK Exit of EU (Brexit)
UK could be shut out of super-accurate EU GPS system it helped to build
Exclusive: The EU’s Galileo GPS system went live in December, but the UK will now have to negotiate, and pay for, access to it
Brexit could leave the UK out of new EU-wide global positioning system (GPS) that went live in December after more than 15 years in development, with much of the cutting-edge work having been carried out by British companies.
The Galileo system, developed in partnership between the European Union and the European Space Agency (a 22-country, non-EU organisation that the UK will not be leaving), has been years in the making, and was built to end the dependence of European countries on GPS technology provided by either the US, Russia or China, who could shut down access to their systems should they so decide.

Not sure about the language that is now returning to this thread, but plenty of leave voters I know dislike Trump and his politics, particularly for the views of his deputy Pence.

Re: UK Exit of EU (Brexit)
To shut down their GPS systems would be to spite their own faces. The signal is freely available to ANY compatible receiver, the GPS system has no knowlege as to the end user.
The EU GPS was another vanity project, hugely expensive waste of money and again the signals are freely available to ANY compatible reciever.
Just yet another mythical scare story.

And all the countries of the world will be queuing up to instate trade agreements with a country who just tears up trade agreements when it feels like it...

Trump, America.
Quote:
President Donald Trump has fulfilled a campaign pledge by signing an executive order to withdraw from the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP).
The 12-nation trade deal was a linchpin of former President Barack Obama's Asia policy.
"Great thing for the American worker what we just did," said Mr Trump as he dumped the pact with a stroke of a pen.
