So, suck it up, it's what you *actually* voted for.

Certainly not what I had in mind, anyway.

But that's the thing isn't it, it was just a framework of ideals,
straplines and promises, it's all it ever could have been without the
whole deal agreed up front.

It's like putting a deposit on a building plot on the promise of 'a
house'. 'A house' as seen in Chelsea or 'a house' as often found out
the back of Africa?


Oi! That's a racist stereotype which you Lefties are not allowed to
use!|

I always thought any deal
would be only be done if it disadvantaged the UK in some way.

And it sounds like you got what you voted for then?


More or less. I think we'll do pretty well out of it, but not *as*
well as we could have done under WTO etc.



What's all this "we" and "we'll". You're a foreigner so none of this
will affect you.


I'm British! Born and bred, mate. And I think you'll find "foreigner"
is another 'bad word' you Lefties are not permitted to use any more.
