Which EU law shall we get rid of now Brexit is done? Four calls from James O'Brien

[@chrismonks592]

" I want to be able to work over 48 hours." The EU wont let me they are taking away choice" Yes they will let you you just sign a form" Yes but i can't make my staff work it" So basically you want to be able to force your staff to work whatever hours you want.

[@tonyroy8123]

[@peterjack4922]

So you want to be in a position where you can FORCE your workforce to work more than 48 hours. Your point about taking away your choice doesn't make sense. If you want to work more than 48 hrs then you can, so can your workforce, like you say if they sign a form but they also have a CHOICE not to do more than 48 hrs. This is the 21st Century not the Victorian times.

As a Canadian watching as an outsider, I just have to say has most of UK lost their collective minds? People liked to blame the EU as a collective boggey man and never understood it or why it's there. Here is the thing I think most people missing, let's take the washing machine as an example... say you own a company making washing machines and want to sell them in the EU? Do you think somehow since you left the EU you don't have to abide by the regulation standards of the EU? Because anything sold there must, so that never went away. Now say you didn't want to put any safety features that EU requires in your machine well then you cannot sell in the EU but you are now free to sell the shoddy machine in the UK or any market that is willing to accept. The purpose of these regulations is to set a minimum standard for products sold to citizens and of course companies don't want to as it will add additional costs. Now the bat's probably has to do with environmental assessments for new constructions, do you think someone in the EU loves bats and put that law in place? It's possible but I am pretty certain that there are animals right activist in the UK that will fight tooth and nail to keep and enforce it. Everyone seems to have thought now they left the EU things will magically get better, but the reality is if you are doing business with the EU it just got drastically harder because you still need to abide by their laws and now you must have customs to deal with. Before you were at the table to make those laws, the fact is you walked away from that and now they can pass any laws and you will have no input and you just have to grin and bare it.

[@YouD0ntSay]

Very well described. The problem for business is that before brexit they were automatically accepted as compliant, as the rules and laws were enshrined in the UK's system and legal mechanisms were in place to deal with incompliance on either side. And the UK had a role in making these rules a d was trusted. Brexit kicked all that into the bin, and now UK exporters have to prove for every product that they comply with EU regulation - and thats massive red tape.

[@mazzaelili3713]

​@@dragonsword7370 I fear it. It is almost impossible to remove someone from an "I belong to the chosen" position. Racism, xenophobia and religion are examples of this. In the case of Brexit, it is the British exceptionalism, the (latent or not) feeling of being better than, in this case, the continentals. Just look at the entire Brexit campaign and after. There are probably more speeches by politicians where world-beating occurs in one form or another than others. British exceptionalism is so strong that not even the opposition dares to say that something, how small it might be, is better on the continent. And many Brits will try to hide it (for themselves) with that "we're different, not better" cliche but the feeling is there, albeit in latent form. For example, British immigrants refer to themselves as expats (an expat is someone who temporarily lives in another country for a temporary reason, such as a project), to distinguish themselves (and feel better) than immigrants in the UK. That British exceptionalism is a studied and well-known phenomenon which, if I am not mistaken, can be attributed to a deliberate indoctrination by the then government just after the Napoleonic Wars.

[@harryp7346]

Since the referendum, I have often heard leavers claiming something along the lines of, "we know what we voted for, we voted to leave". For a long time, I thought they were talking nonsense - that was until maybe a couple of years ago. It suddenly occurred to me that they were in fact telling the truth/correct - at least if you understood what they were saying from their perspective. Essentially, I realised that many leavers effectively cannot comprehend the consequences of their vote. To put it simply, topics like trade, EU laws, democracy, sovereignty etc. are too complex for many leavers to begin to understand, so they aren't a factor in their reasoning when supporting Brexit - not properly, at least. Some leavers may refer to these topics, but they don't necessarily know what they're talking about. It reminds me of football fans discussing teams/players etc who they may never have seen play. For example, Pele - many would argue he's the best of all time, but how many have seen more than perhaps 5 minutes of highlights from his long career? There was even a video made by a Man Utd channel, in which the presenter went to Chelsea's stadium just before a game, and asked fans about made up players - almost all the fans put forward an opinion on these non-existent players! Back to the topic, though - when leavers say they know what they voted for, sometimes this is the case - they voted to leave. That's it. Nothing more. A sensible person would want to know what the ramifications of such a vote might be. But leavers didn't care - it was too complex to understand. All they knew was, after years of hearing lies about the EU, it was supposedly evil, and something the UK should leave.

[@gotnoname3956]

In the EU it is clearly not allowed to do this amount of hours on a weekly basis as employees. 48 hours is the maximum based on the 11 hours for rest time. It is possible to extend it to 60 hours under specific circumstances but not higher. The only way to be able to work 80-90 hours a week as an employee is to NOT track the hours in such a way. Otherwise, a problem can arise quite quickly.
