Like no. 6 the EU courts have already said the UK can cancel article 50 at any point but whatever.
So nothing 1-5. Yeah, didn't think so.

You understand that if you break a vase, glue it all back together, it's still a broken vase, yes?

You think? Lots of anger bubbling under the surface. Remember the Poll Tax riots? There's a lot more anger about Brexit than that little event which brought Thatcher down.

The EU trades with many non EU countries like the USA and Canada. That's what we want long term also. The EU wants to hurt us as a warning to others thinking similar thoughts about leaving. That's the real problem here, a desire to inflict pain on us.

You get no argument from me on pathetic politicians.
Your still on the same argument, the over population and foreigners are the EUs fault ? No no no

The worlds population is exploding everywhere, without wars it will continue, most people coming to the Uk want to work but the daft welfare system in the UK draws and will always draw chancers and being out of the EU will change neither.

The EU isn’t inflicting pain or being difficult. 27 countries had to agree the terms of the UK departing and what that means, the UK won’t be paying into the system so will get noting back in return otherwise whats the point of the other 27 countries continuing to pay in if they can have the benefits without doing so, try joining any paying members club without paying your dues, you’ll be told to sling your hook.

The UK industry nearly all relies on fast movement of goods, parts etc, slow that down and millions will be without work, just look at Nissan and you haven’t even left, bringing items from the other side of the world to replace these short supply lines is never going to replace the current ease of trade.

it’s ok for pensioners who won’t have to worry about working again, if there is a vote then anyone over 60 should be barred.

It’s not the British way, pub talk and without being drunk people will move on, most hardcore leavers couldn’t believe their luck when it went their way, the same though is immense if common sense doesn’t prevail.

This daft situation should never have happened and a lot of people used the vote for many reasons and the majority had nothing to do with the EU, that’s politics for you.

I was going to answer your whole post, but the last sentence had me laughing so much, I can't concentrate.

Boy, we're getting some comedians on this thread for sure.......

I'm sniffing the air, and you know what I'm getting? Fear. Your post is full of it......... and fear as well.....

you don't half talk some rubbish britinspain, vote nothing to do with the EU? we've had over 40 years of being lied to by politicians both British and European, the referendum was our chance to do something about it.
I suppose its alright for someone who lives on the continent but some of us want our country back, as it is the EU will probably collapse within 10 years unless they listen to member states not just dictate to them, the EU economy is in a far worse state than the UK one is. and unless they do something about it its going to collapse around their ears, thank goodness we never joined the single currency that would have been a big mistake.

No fear coming from me at all, I'm ok and have a great life thanks partly to the opportunities the EU afforded me with freedom of movement.

You two are both ardent leavers and I get that and I'm sure you knew what you were voting for, many others though were simply making an anti establishment vote with little or zero knowledge of what the EU's actually about.

Regardless of that, leaving the EU will not make one bit of difference to either of your lives, it may however have a heavy impact on people you may know and care about.

Everything you've said is manageable. In the US my former employer needed to rely on fast movement of goods from China all over the globe, they managed it, very successfully, with only occasional back log. That plant in China relies on parts manufactured in South Korea and Japan too, and that plant manages those parts arriving in 6 hour time slots.

The UK won't have any more slow down than getting into China, or from China to say Australia or Europe. But you know what would I know, I only worked on fairly ubiquitous products you probably use, and definitely know.

The slow down of JIT parts is a red herring and always was.
