1: The UK along with all existing members of the EU lose their abstention veto in 2020 as laid down in the Lisbon Treaty when the system changes to that of majority acceptance with no abstentions or veto’s being allowed.
2: All member nations will become states of the new federal nation of the EU by 2022 as clearly laid out in the Lisbon treaty with no exceptions or veto’s.
3: All member states must adopt the Euro by 2022 and any new member state must do so within 2 years of joining the EU as laid down in the Lisbon treaty.
4: The London stock exchange will move to Frankfurt in 2020 and be integrated into the EU stock exchange resulting in a loss of 200,000 plus jobs in the UK because of the relocation. (This has already been pre-agreed and is only on a holding pattern due to the Brexit negotiations, which if Brexit does happen, the move is fully cancelled - but if not and the UK remains a member it’s full steam ahead for the move.)
5: The EU Parliament and ECJ become supreme over all legislative bodies of the UK.
6: The UK will adopt 100% of whatever the EU Parliament and ECJ lays down without any means of abstention or veto, negating the need for the UK to have the Lords or even the Commons as we know it today.
7: The UK will NOT be able to make its own trade deals.
8: The UK will NOT be able to set its own trade tariffs.
9 The UK will NOT be able to set its own trade quotas.

11: The UK loses control of its oil and gas rights
12: The UK loses control of its borders and enters the Schengen region by 2022 - as clearly laid down in the Lisbon treaty
13: The UK loses control of its planning legislation
14: The UK loses control of its armed forces including its nuclear deterrent
15: The UK loses full control of its taxation policy
16: The UK loses the ability to create its own laws and to implement them
17: The UK loses its standing in the Commonwealths
18: The UK loses control of any provinces or affiliated nations e.g.: Falklands, Cayman Islands, Gibraltar etc
19: The UK loses control of its judicial system
20: The UK loses control of its international policy
21: The UK loses full control of its national policy
22: The UK loses its right to call itself a nation in its own right.
23: The UK loses control of its space exploration program
24: The UK loses control of its Aviation and Sea lane jurisdiction
25: The UK loses its rebate in 2020 as laid down in the Lisbon treaty
26: The UK’s contribution to the EU is set to increase by an average of 1.2bn pa and by 2.3bn pa by 2020

If we revoke Article 50 then Brexit is dead, we can't do it again which would be a hell of a decision to make


If the current impasse continues frontbenchers across parliament might vote to revoke. If they did there will obviously be trouble.

They might do it on the basis of saying there will -post article 50 withdrawal be a withdrawal by treaty negotiated which includes a full future association agreement to allow the UK to trade with Europe in future and be outside the EU. The article 50 notification was very foolish however much May, Corbyn et al called for it as it put the larger partner in the driving seat one day one and there were people saying so at the time.

Leaving by treaty and unravelling 40 years of integration would take 5 -10 years but would allow something very complicated to happen in a sane manner.UK would be negotiating from a much more secure position. Probably too many headbangers on both sides for something sensible to happen though.

Kind of losing track with it all but am i right in thinking that if Corbyn decides to sit on his hands for the next two and a half months and refuses to cooperate with the Tories then, by parliamentary procedure, he'll get the No Deal that he's really wanted all along?


Given the Labour Party's close association with the trade unions and the supposed carnage caused to manufacturing by a no deal scenario, why do you think that?

Corbyn is keeping his policy a secret. As others have said, it doesn't look good that he won't at least engage with May. That said, she should have been holding talks with the other party leaders and keeping them informed along the way previously.

Labour MP's represent urban remain constituencies ( e.g Manchester, London, Liverpool, Leeds, Cardiff) and leave areas such as Stoke and Sunderland. Labour has a balancing act of those who want a second referendum and those who want to leave. Staying in the customs union is a brexit for those more in the middle. I am a Labour supporter and voted remain holding my nose. There are a lot of faults within the EU looking at issues such as Greece.
Also immigration is too high. I live in East London and have seen a population increase drastically in recent years.

As I understand it the original treaties surrounding the EU left no procedure for a country to withdraw and article 50 was quickly put in place to rectify this omission. Is it then the case that the AG is saying article 50 can be invoke unilaterally by any country only once. We would be a member of a club which legally we could never leave without the permission of the other members whatever rules that club might impose.

Without seeing what you're referencing - Geoffrey Cox might've been being a bit disingenuous dependent on what he exactly said...

Withdrawing Art.50 doesn't mean you can never ever trigger it again in future at all.

The CJEU ruling said the UK could withdraw / revoke Art.50 as per this article explainer...

https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/brexit-cancel-stop-revoke-article

"However, once the UK has revoked Article 50, there would be nothing stopping it from deciding to leave again. So this would be quite difficult to police, and in practice it could potentially be used to reset the two year negotiating period. This would probably make other EU member states, and officials, extremely angry however. "

At this stage I think the EU Member states are already pretty angry / embarrassed for us anyway. If it takes revoking Article 50 to stop our country getting totally f--ked by a no deal that's come about by the total incompetence, dithering and lies from politicians over the last two years I'm all for it.

That performance by Gove (during which he did not mention May once! Quite transparently a leadership pitch) was absolutely vile, a greatest hits rundown of three years worth of unsubstantiated smears and innuendo. Honestly, a real microcosm of all that is wrong with British politics. Just a load of posh toffs have a jolly old time laughing at their mate's debate-club grandstanding. Cynical ad hominem politics at its worst.


I couldn’t watch more than a minute or two of that garbage.What a bunch of hypocritical w@nkers the Tory mps are.117 of them didn’t think she was fit to run their party,but all of them voted that she was fit to run the country.

The policy Corbyn is keeping secret is called 'No Deal'.

As for the trade unions, many believe the EU acts in the interests of big business and against the interests of workers and they'd be right.
