 THE COST OF BREXIT Here's what Britons might lose after the divorce rom the right to work in 27 other countries to roaming free cellphone service across the bloc, there are plenty ways Brexit will change life in the U.K. LONDON — From the outside, Brexit can seem like a never-ending saga. Almost three years after 52 percent of the United Kingdom's voters backed leaving the European Union, the country is still trying to figure out how that will happen. The twists and turns in Parliament, the negotiations with the E.U., the 599-page divorce deal — keeping up with it all has even the most seasoned scholars scratching their heads. But behind the documents and legal wording lie the foundations of daily life for British citizens, from cellphone contracts to how they will go on vacations. For many Brexit supporters, the expected economic losses and changes to the rights that were enshrined by E.U. membership will be worth it come departure day, which is scheduled for March 29. “Brexit is not driven by economics. It’s a political project driven by an ideological idea of what the U.K. is and what it could be,” Sam Lowe, a senior researcher at the Centre for European Reform, said. While politicians in Parliament are now trying to agree on the final details of the divorce, they’ve not even started negotiating on what the future relationship might look like. Here are some of the ways that the E.U. impacts life for Britons, and what they stand to lose as the U.K. pulls away from its closest trading partner. LIVING IN THE E.U. Citizens of E.U. member states are allowed to work in any of the 27 other countries in the bloc. So if you’re British, you can move to Madrid, Paris or Berlin, get a job and set up your life with little hassle. Known as the free movement of people, this became one of the most controversial aspects of E.U. membership for many in the U.K., and a rallying point for some pro-Brexit politicians.

out out out
we4 had holiday allowences and paid holiday leave long before the EU
WE also could go and live in parts of Europe [such as the durrels in Greece] without need of visa
we also had paid maternity
the national health
state pensions
acess to trade unions
sick pay
mandatory hours one could work and conditions of employment
child allences
and oddly enough there was a period of 6yrs when brits to and froed all over Europe with out a pass port
the only thing worrying the EU is the loss of our monies...and our markets well tough
weve broken our selves twice on behalf of Germany and France only fools and traitors would go for a triple......we want our fishing industry back among other things including patents the EU is not entitled to
and if its not sorted after 3 yrs then our best option is to leave because they and the remainers have no intentions of anything but absolute subjection

Here's where it stands tonight.
A catastrophic defeat: British Prime Minister Theresa May has suffered another shattering loss in parliament after lawmakers voted against her Brexit deal by 391 to 242.What happens now? Lawmakers have been promised another vote on Wednesday, in which they can decide whether the UK should crash out of the EU without a deal. If that, too, is rejected, parliament could then vote on whether to request a Brexit extension.
When is Brexit happening? The United Kingdom is due to leave the European Union in 17 days -- on March 29.

You could do that, but the system would remain intact and that would change nothing. Representative democracy means the representative doing what they think is best, an obvious example of that would be something like mass immigration. Doing the exact opposite of what most people would want and even what was sensible. The next intake is always at least as bad as the last. That is the real problem for me. |
