First rules of procurement is find the fella who will discuss the sentence " whats in it for us."
Anyone taking an exam in brain washing would give their right arm to get some of the remainers on here as a subject, Kato, Glyn, and Syd would be dreams, Billy would take too long for an hours exam he is too far gone.
Benefits don’t count when they’re too early, benefits don’t count when they’re too late.I can’t shake off this nagging feeling that some posters aren’t treating this pro Brexit thread with the same good faith it was created in.Just a feeling, mind.
Don't you think that normal life is somewhat suspended at the moment thus restricting any potential benefits of leaving the EU?
I see, so because there have been no benefits, and it's unlikely there will be any in the future it's not really intended as a benefits log thread then, is it?
When the question of Brexit first arose the majority of people that I knew who were going to vote to leave said that they wanted us to have control of our borders.I suppose they meant stopping refugees and illegal immigrants coming in.Has that really happened I wonder.

How would having/removing borders make any difference to someone who ignores them anyway?
A small step in the right direction as long as it's not just a throwaway soundbite. What we need is action not promises that never materialise.
Isn’t that a benefit BB.
The biggest and most important benefit of Brexit thus far has been that it has finally happened and a democratic vote has been carried out after years of objections and obstacles from the EU itself and Remoaners who wanted to overrule the referendum result. Threads like this that are intended to antagonise show that the bad feeling hasn't gone away, and to be made at a time when a pandemic has no doubt made it harder for the UK to adjust to Brexit makes it plainly obvious that under no circumstances will it ever go away.

Adherence to this is overseen by the United Nations - of which the UK is a permanent member on the Security Council.If the UK wishes to change its laws to make things that are already illegal even more illegal, or to break the Geneva Convention and be ostrasised by the UN, they are at liberty to do so, regardless of whether or not we are in the EU. So sorry to break it to your friends if that doesn't happen, but it wont be a benefit of Brexit.
