Not great for the "growth" pledge. Will also probably hasten the demise of a bunch more borderline industries e.g pubs , high street shops etc..

Mad to have another referendum tbh think we should just do whats necessary over whatever time period , but realistically if / when it happens it will be a vote Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lost Posted 22 hours ago Report Share Posted 22 hours ago (edited) I'm not sure rejoin would win when people realised it wouldn't be under the conditions we left rather those laid out under the lisbon treaty e.g. losing the veto, having to dump the pound for the euro etc.. Think the best we can get is single market alignment which when we won't have any say about the rules is probably why labour are swerving it.
