Honda, they were already mostly leaving, but they said they were keeping a department in the UK, but yesterday they announced they're closing that down too. 3,500 jobs to go in 2021.

Zero hour jobs and low level jobs sure, you're applauding hiring cleaners whilst at the same time we're losing tech workers, doctors, nurses, etc.

PS: Nothing wrong with cleaners, but in terms of a trade off I'm sure most people would like to keep the higher paying positions with actual job security.

It's great that there is low unemployment .

Is it because of brexit?

Is it down to the conservatives ?

Is it down to the recession ending.?

Is because of austerity?

It's always feast or famine in my profession.These things are cyclical And whoever is in charge gets the credit or when it's shit they blame anyone but themselves and usually the previous government.

Just like your earlier comment about how companies left the UK before Brexit, why yes they did but there's been a 15x increase in companies leaving the UK since Brexit was announced. We've lost more industry than gained, we've lost more tech than gained, but sure, we have an increase in low paying jobs and zero hour contracts, therefore Brexit is winning am I right?

Dave, tell us one good thing that will result from brexit that will be a benefit to the country worth the tens of billions of pounds already directly spent, the trillions of pounds of investment money that has gone elsewhere, the many many thousands of real jobs that have vanished, the fact that the lowest paid are getting ever poorer while the ultra rich are getting ever richer.

I know that successive governments have treated the working class like shit for year after year, and something has to change. But brexit isn't the answer. Europe is one of the main things that has been protecting us against being totally fucked by the ruling class, the bastards at the top are overjoyed that so many people have taken in the lie. It's like turkeys voting for christmas because they've been promised a nice dinner... when in fact they are the dinner.

The rich getting richer, the poor getting poorer. So this has been happening....under the EU since the early 70's yeah? Will the rich get poorer and the poor get richer by staying in the EU or will it just remain the same?

Was it not a majority of 'working class' (hate that term) that voted for brexit? I dunno...

i didn't vote and i don't really care what happens...but the trundling on of the soap opera of politics surrounding brexit is BAFTA award worthy...

Under Brexit the rich can get even richer without regulations and the poor/working class enter a stalemate or even lose services. The difference is, the rich white men have pretended to be best mates of the working class to get the working class to vote in their favour.

Is there actually a "tangible" positive.

3 years in after the referendum I'm still to hear / read about any tangible positives of Brexit that can't be debunked with a little looking up of information.

Being honest there are only positives if you only take the word of the Brexiteers and believe without question.

so you're in favour of big government, globalisation, massive centralisation of finance, larger numbers of political elites and less acountability at a more local level?

I can't wait for a positive benefit to Brexit to appear.............

I fear that I might be in for a rather long wait though.

The problem is that I (and most rational thinkers) know that it is impossible to square the circles of the Brexit argument because there really is no good Brexit. It will weaken us financially and politically and the divisions created are likely to break up the United Kingdom. I am happy to consider opinions that can demonstrate how turning our backs on our closest trading partners is somehow beneficial and/or how ending shared responsibility and costs for regulatory agencies is going to save money and be more efficient.

On that last point, have you not noticed now that the more zealous Brexiters don't even bother displaying the Union flag on social media or at gatherings anymore. They probably know that their Brexit will likely finish off the United Kingdom and so they display the George cross instead. Tommy Robinson was up north yesterday and both his accolytes and his disciples were almost all waving the George cross.

When the alternative is driving the country off a cliff, yes, I'd rather be on the side of the EU who at least try and do SOME things for the people as opposed to selling them out.

Don't like the system? Then vote for the parties who can actually help change these ways, however as a nation we're also controlled by Murdoc owned media so anything even slightly left is painted in a negative manner. Brexit is a change but we've yet to see the positive for it, even now Farage won't release the manifest for his Brexit party and literally doing his old routine "trust me, I'm your mate, I drink pints in pubs".

End up with f all of what?

You have a totally misguided and frankly twisted view of what the European Union actually is.

I mean did you see the way that the EU stuck together and got right behind one of their smaller countries when there was a threat of them being bullied? That is what friends are for.

Shared intelligence, experience and costs across multiple different kinds of standards agencies - providing great value for money and a better outcome than the sum of the individual parts.

All the while, the 28 independent and sovereign nations remained accountable to their own populace and retained their own cultural and unique cultures.

What is there not to like lol

Ireland rejected the first referendum but happily voted overwhelmingly with the required amendments.

Before I could accept any result from any referendum I'd have to be convinced that the vote was actually democratic and had not seriously and deliberately broken election law.

Also, as a point of information, another referendum would be a third referendum; the first was held in 1975.

It's crystal clear that with a timetable that has overran, limited time left to work with, a conservative government that's at war with itself, a parliament including the government party that is unsatisfied with the negotiated offer, that the intelligent option is to cancel article 50. There should then follow a full review of the experience, so that the mistakes could not be repeated. If it's right to initiate it again, it must only be if the governing party has total agreement on what it wants and has a plan. There should also be no risk of leadership change and any goals and plan altered.

It's totally irresponsible to pursue this beyond the eleventh hour but still have neither a plan or agreement - and especially not with the governing party being completely in disagreement about what it wants. Too much money has been wasted on this exercise, that's only achieved the world knowing how utterly inept the conservative party is and almost that the UK is fully as loathsome.

But may will have another meaningful vote, its nr 4 now she will keep having it until she gets her deal, is it best of 30? That is not democratic, but it is by having a final peoples vote on brexit as they were lied to in order to win. I cant believe the people fell for it lol.

The oldest trick in the political book - emotional black male, particularly by stoking fear and then offering a 'simple' solution, even if deceit and impossibilities are what you are manipulated to vote for. It's especially popular and works when your citizens are stressed, as coercion will then encourage people to abdicate logical reasoning for superficial threat responses - freeze, flight, fight.

Only the remoaners want it stopped

who in my reckoning are a minority of the population "

I doubt its a minority now, using current polling, combine the leave parties and the soft leave together and the remain parties and the soft remain parties together, the figures go like this

34 seats for leave

37 seats for remain

So clearly there is more appetite now for remain or soft remain.

Based on euroskeptism now

They only get 35% to pro-eu’s 38%

Yes the BP will get the largest number of seats, but it will be pyrric victory, as the combined anti-eu groups will still lose to the combined remain groups.

It has a lot more to do with the division of labour. If you don't get the balance right. First comes the "bidding" for labour. Wage increases and low unemployment. Then markets shrink as business move their markets elsewhere. Adam Smith covers the basic premise of it in "The Wealth of Nations". Regardless of Brexit, if you don't get your house in order pronto. High Employment and High Wages could easily turn to low wages and no jobs. Brexit has nothing to do with it. It is the mismanagement of it all. Hence, it's a management issue and those in charge are inept to the task. It really doesn't read as anything other than a complete cock up. A house divided can not stand - Abe Lincoln.

To me the problem is obvious, the elected representatives we have in government, in the majority don’t want Brexit!!

But the masses voted for it!

They should honour their constituents wishes, but they don’t believe in it..

So there is only one way out.

Get rid of the lot of them by having a complete vote of no confidence in the whole House of Commons

Then have New elections

How can you say that?

Parliament voted for Brexit.

Mrs May won an election with a promise to leave with a deal.

She brings that deal to Parliament for approval.

It keeps getting blocked by the Brexiteers in her own party.

If anyone is defying the will of the people - the 2017 manifesto - it is the ERG and DUP.

UK would have left by now were it not for them.

Yes.

That is how Mrs May is PM - she was the only leader capable of commanding a majority of MPs in the Commons.

She has a mandate from 2017 election to leave the EU with a deal.

She has the numbers to deliver it, otherwise she would not be PM.

This whole mess we are is simply because we've got a remainer trying to sort out a deal to leave, and while we have this is just going to carry on. Just go for a no deal brexit, ok it might be a bit ruff going but in the long run it will a lot better than being governed by them europrats. As for the likes of that C U Next Tuesday Tony Blair and the rest of that bunch of his remoaner cronnies, they only want us to stay in europe for there own benefit and not that of this country or it'people.

There is no mandate for a no-deal exit. Quite the opposite.

Put a Brexiteer in charge of a no-deal plan and they will never get it through Parliament. It won't happen.

A no-deal exit needs a mandate - either in a referendum or a general election.

That is right and it is good that the parliament can see sense to keep the best interest for northern ireland by blocking mays deal.

Also i think the Remain message needs to stop coming from the middle class, successful media friendly types, and foreigners, if we're ever going to get the working class to agree. After all, we're currently in the EU, and poverty is rife while the middle class choose which colour tesla to buy. So of course they want to remain...

Out is out, no deal. Who that was the question. Watch them cosy up to us, but no our bungling political elite managed to screw it up.

Vote leave: we will have a new uk~eu deal based on free trade and friendly cooperation.

Tory manifesto. We will seek a deep and special partnership including a comprehensive free trade and customs agreement.

Labour manifesto. Negotiating priorities that have a strong emphasis on the benefits of the SM and CU.

Nobody said they were planning to deliver no deal. Even ukip talked about us getting a deal

Nobody knows what differences will occur when BREXIT happens, because a minority of people have continued to allow the politicians to stall it. It hasn’t happened yet, and so in anticipation remoaners are using every negative thing that happens, in order to blame our departure from the EU. Yet every time something positive happens, it’s either fake news or leavers are grasping at straws.

I still predict that the mainstream politicians are going to fudge the entire process, so that we get something way less than we voted for, if anything at all. It is just a prediction because, wait for it, IT HASN'T HAPPENED YET!

The only chance we will ever get to find out , OMHO, is by electing the BREXIT Party in the EU elections, and for a victorious Nige to take over the debate.

It may well happen, but don’t rely on the opinion polls...

For Farage to take over the debate on any meaning would require him becoming PM and nothing in the EU elections will assist him doing so.

MEP's are totally impotent regarding domestic issues in UK government.

Hence why the referendum was held in the first place. All thanks to Farage and UKIP.
