The EU dictators want to put this to bed as soon as possible lest any other countries get similar ideas.

I hope the Queen lives long enough to make this happen. Charlie will screw it up.

Actually, based on the EU rules, you can anticipate this taking a minimum of two years....maybe even ten.

The treaty has to be written up to exit. It has to pass via Parliament. Then the 751 members of the EU have a review, and half have to agree to the wording. After that, twenty-seven members of the EU (the states) all have a go, and twenty must agree to it.

England could write up a friendly deal on business and commerce, to find that the EU at Brussels refuses to be nice about this. Then the EU finds that fifteen of the countries in the EU refuse to screw over the British with a harsh trade deal. My take is that the treaty will take a year to write and get the EU to agree in a nice way to the commerce side. But it’s assuming that no one else stands up for another vote.

——I worked on a project in Bulgaria and shipped things acros Europe. -——

Now that is an interesting comment. Was the material shipped oversize or hazardous or something requiring special permit ?

I thought freight could transit unimpeded even across the channel.

I think the “rules” are that the EU is supposed to try and talk them out of leaving. So there might be more behind the scenes than we think.


Not too much. The UK won't be allowed to participate in EU business about it's departure. An explanation here...

This is the EU punks and faggots saying they will try to screw and punish Great Britain for its insolence

Obama will invite him to the us to a basketball game.

Obama and Cameron sitting in a tree....

If Obama had not interfered pre-voting, things just may turned out differently.

just pipe and tools

We lost one truck because the driver took a holiday. I’ve had that happen in the US as well though more than once. You can find trucks and loads of really heavy stuff in the strangest places.

Anyway, yes, I commonly budgeted 5 days for transit under good conditions. Holidays, forget about it.

Watch them now try to delay and delay and delay and make it seem so impossible that “oops, looks like we have to stay”

Who cares what the actual voters think anyway

Just like Obama targeted high profile services to be cut during the last “government shutdown”, the Marxists in Brussels will target British citizens with harsh penalties. Look for currency restrictions, travel hassles, trade red tape, and the like.

EU can suck it up. The UK gets two years to negotiate.

You can always count on progressive twits to throw a juvenile temper tantrum when they lose. Just like the gun control clown posse. They are only children after all. That in turn will help accelerate even more Countries leaving the EU.

They need to get out of that overly bureaucratic socialized union which only drags down the countries associated with it.

They certainly have enough overly bureaucratic socialized government without the EU. No need to add more.
