"We should be in control of our own destiny" she utters. Guess what, we were! These twonks keep telling me we have got back our sovereignty, so it was all worth it. We never lost our sovereignty!!!!!! In 1982, we were members of the EU when Argentina invaded the Falklands, we made an independent decision to go and get them back, which we did. We didn't have to ask anybody's permission, we just got on with it. If UKIPers had a problem with decisions made in the EU which affected this country, that is what you have MEP's for. The fact that we had wuckfits like Farridge and Widdecombe " representing" this country was no reason to leave the biggest trading bloc in the world and casting this country off into the trading and economic wilderness. Get some politicians who are willing to earn their corn, argue our case and not just spend their days filling out their expenses forms! This country needs leaders who lead from the front, tell people stuff they may not want to hear and don't look for the nearest camera to play to.

"Eurozone is doing worse than us." Nooope. EU was ALWAYS growing, since the 2020 lockdowns ended and never experienced recession since then unlike the UK with it's VERY RECENT recession. Germany is just one member of the EU and MANY EU members are growing VERY fast and VERY good. EU added 1 trillion dollars to it's economy from 2023 to 2024, 18,4 trillion dollars in 2023 to 19,4 trillion dollars in 2024. That's like a third of the British economy. That EU added... In a single YEAR. Also the British pound was doing worse than euro ever since the 2002 and especially with a huge drop in value vs the euro in 2016. I could go on like this for a long time. Oh GDP PPP per capita of the EU now cought up with the UK, meaning 450 MILLION people now manage to have the SAME GDP PPP per capita like the little island. Which is a very BIG achievement. France got higher GDP PPP economy size than the UK now, and higher GDP PPP per capita than UK now, Germany became third biggest economy of the world now, ahead of Japan, and Germany got MUCH higher both nominal GDP and GDP PPP per capita than the UK now, Italy became much bigger even NOMINAL economy than the Canada again, after all this very good growth of the southern Europe, and Italy is by GDP PPP per capita now only slightly behind the UK, UK got 58 000 dollars and Italy got 56 000 dollars.

They are not to tell the truth. The truth is very simple...uk voted to become a third country and as such is treated with the sme laws that uk helped to inteoduce when a member. Secondary to this truth we have a poorer country affecting mostly the poorer...and another truth is that navigating alone ( uk is no longer an Empire) in that procelous waters is not easy. And about rejoining...do you remember the vaccine...i was working in a spanish hospital and we were asked to test the vaccine,for free. We Europeans had the idea that it was a common effort including uk. So people in different countries worked overtime to hqve the vaccine. And then...uk kept for itself. After that who can believe a word coming from uk? If you ask the average french or polish or spaniard they will feel Europe as something inside them. It is not the case with uk.

The multinationals that do business here, the oil, electricity and water companies plus local government seem to think we all have massive incomes. Not true.

I am watching this UK slowmotion car crash unfolding from across the North Sea and I cannot even. Just shaking my head in disbelief how so many people could be riled up to vote against their own interest. It is also amazing that the housing crisis appears to be a common basis upon which the domestic people of many countries in the EU are basing their xenophobia. Almost as if this is a logical outcome of shortcomings on housing/living policies issues everywhere. If that is not the case, a foreign entity may well be exploiting this instability and encourage this disgruntledness as part of asymmetric warfare. Brexit is a major boon for Russia if they ever planned this or not. France is vulnerable in their former colony policies, as all their former FCA monetary countries are toppled by coups, opening the door for Wagnersecurity for the African mining operations. Germany almost got hooked and depended on Russian gas. Now Russia's trump card for the USA is Trump to split the NATO. The USA is almost back to untangle their domestic politics issues, but the former east block countries are still divided. I must say that if Russia was indeed planning all this, it is very much a close escape if we get through this. Keep calm and carry on. Hope you return to the EU soon.

Poland are building up an army that is the largest in Europe and the economy is getting bigger and stronger and will over take the UK in just afew years like 3 to 5. The average person in Poland has more money and higher standards of living food quality school, job opportunities then broken brexit Britain. Uk is getting closer to north korea less opportunities for uk citizens to travel work, devalued £ higher costs for electricity, gas,oil and lower food and water quality and soon people will be asking to be paid to polish rocks like in North korea. Uk is jot welcome at the table of nations with world power like usa,Russia, Germany, China the uk has a small weak army and zero power in law making in the eu Also Hungary is in the EU and got the vaccinations imported from Russia faster then the uk rolling out vaccinations so that line is untrue

I remember Jeremy using cheap jibes and talking over people who had valid points to make for not leaving the EU. No doubt, if he ever gets questioned on that, he would say he was a journalist representing the mood of the country. The partisan media is part of the problem, he might have realised he was wrong about Brexit, but he still doesn’t question his own views to see if they are robust, he is still a light weight thinker blinkered by his prejudices.

Anyone that believes Uk were responsible for their tax ✂️ ..remember that sunak/ Hunt costantly made our lives harder through higher bills/ refused uni entry and limited job possibilities

We are ALREADY richer that we were a few years ago! I'm going to buy a retirement house in Spain soon!

[@MrOliver1444]

I love good Brexit debates! They are fun and funny 🤣

[@fabriziocamisani5477]

Quite condescending, isn't it? Like the Poles being richer than the Brits is something outrageous. Things change. empires collapses and so on...

[@andreascassinides2660]

Brexit has given the United Kingdom back its freedom and independence. Britain won’t risk it sovereignty by making the mistake to rejoin the European Union.

[@romanjimenezgil]

Keep it for you. Freedom? From what? Independence? Tell that to people who have to choose either food or heat.

[@jobertus660]

Still talking Brexit. Why?

[@adriancurtin6012]

It is to late now to reverse Brexit.It is a job for the next generation.The enemy is in Moscow not Brussels!! K.Stamer Government will at least allow us to talk about how we handle the new situation/ trading arrangements/ student exchanges/ 90 day rule for touring bands etc. Without the vebal savagery we have had up to now about Europe.Save that for Mr Putin and Russian Federation!

[@Worldwithoutboarders]

Why give a voice to a untrustworthy person so shameful.
