Leave.EU, a pro-Brexit campaign bankrolled by UKIP backer Arron Banks, has migrated its registered office for its website to Waterford so that it can retain its ‘.eu’ internet address

Looks like many businesses are not impressed by the rules of the new agreement.

People have been tweeting that Brexit is a success because there's no queues at the ports.

Erm, everyone stockpiled last year, just in case of a No Deal.

Then loads of people cancelled or re-routed orders when we shut our ports.

People are easily led.

You can still come to the EU, but for god's sake don't bring a ham butty

IT'S PC MADNESS I TELLS YA

1/3 of the Scottish fishing fleet is now moored - they're not going out. Some fish species were going at an 80% discount yesterday just to get rid of stocks.

Some British fishermen are catching in UK waters then sailing to Denmark to land their catch. I don't know how long that will be allowed to carry on.

I think the Scottish fishing fleet makes up 2/3rds of the whole of the UK fishing fleet.

Still as long as Bozo and his mates can continue to use offshore tax havens!!!!!!!!

It's a good day for Brexit.

Ford has just announced price rises and said that they're due to "post brexit rules of origin" taxes.

£1700 on a Fiesta ST and Puma ST increasing by £1,920.

I would love to know what your average person the the Street thinks of Brexit by the end of the year, ,not the nut job Nationalist clowns, but the people who thought it might better their lives somehow.

Apparently, fully one-third of fishery "landings" in the UK are done just at Peterhead alone.
The site I looked at didn't give any tonnages or nowt like that.

When you consider "What does the EU do" trended on Google search for days after the vote, they probably won't be thinking a great deal.

There's no rules about poking fun

Downing Street has said Boris Johnson maintains confidence in the fisheries minister after she admitted not reading the post-Brexit trade deal with Brussels when it was agreed because she was busy organising a nativity trail

The government has faced sustained criticism in parliament from Conservative MPs representing fishing areas, including in Scotland, over red tape and delays caused by the introduction of the post-Brexit fishing regime.

New regulatory frictions causing disruption to trade with the EU are an “obvious and inevitable” consequence of Brexit and can be expected to be permanent, Brussels’ former chief negotiator Michel Barnier has said.

So all that time bitching back and forth about fishing while ignoring the bigger parts of the picture is working out for the best then.

Anyone with common sense could see it was bad for British people but not enough used what sense they ahd when voting.

We are no longer a part of a single market with no barriers. Instead we have a free trade deal that only agrees to no tariffs but there will be barriers, borders and red tape.

Hopefully within ten years people will realise what a mistake it was and will want to put it right.

[Kwacky]

But Leave said they wouldn't leave the single market.

Anna countries will be queuing up to trade with us

I saw the results of a poll the other day.

Tories would still take 47% of votes if there where a snap election, with labor getting 41%.

The stubbornness of the British public is bewildered.

To be in the single market you either have to be an EU member state or part of the EEA.

Why? Switzerland isn't.
Or is it??
