questionable???? haha OK..
Two things that were lies just from my general knowledge.
1, "The UK would owe no money to the EU after it left in March 2019"
What about the 40Bn euro?
2, "A raft of new trade deals would be ready on 29 March 2019"
Tripe. Deals cannot be implemented until after December 2020

I have said since the idea of leaving was first raised - and it bears repeating - no-one knows what is going to happen when we leave, so the best we can get is educated guesswork.
Of course the Man On The Clapham Omnibus can voice any opinion, from everything being wonderful, to the end of the world as we know it, and everything in between - and he does, and some people get a bit giddy and carried away with all the excitement.
Personally, I voted to leave, and I get seriously vexed when other people with no more inside knowledge than me, infer that I voted incorrectly because I don't know what's going on.
That insults my intelligence. I voted to regain our sovereignty, our laws, and our borders, and I can see negotiated trade deals as a bonus on top of that.

‘Most believe ... that Britain will be one a prison camp after Brexit’ is what this blogger writes.
Of course it’s hyperbole but you have to wonder what is the point of such articles. Brexiter goes forth among the ‘opposition’ and has a whale of a time satirising some of the - I have no doubt odd - views of the marchers.
And I freely admit a Remain blogger would no doubt do the same

and of course that socialists in the EU - or the whole EU - are Nazis (I've heard this often on AB)

Many folk made many pronouncements, hardly surprising if some proved incorrect. I've not analysed the ransom demands in detail but I suspect any agreed payment should be made before leaving. If not, that's a small oversight. In any case as nothing seems to have been produced to prove anything is actually owed by a departing member, merely demanded of them, any €40B would be a gesture of goodwill to get the demanding side to play fair elsewhere. Deals can be agreed and ready in principle behind closed doors ready to go when the obstructive side of the table runs out of time to prevent us exiting. But of course that would simply have been an aspiration anyway.
OG, Britain signed up to the EU’s budget framework when it became a member; budgets are not calculated year by year. The EU budget is a “legal act” and is over a seven year span. The last one started in 2014 and it ends in 2020. So, when Britain leaves the EU—tentatively set for March, 2019—it will still be liable to pay its share for the remaining seven quarters—from April 2019 until the end of 2020.
Even if Britain leaves in 2019, if there are projects it agreed to contribute to that are meant to be completed by 2030, it would still have to pay for what it promised to fund at the time.
Your comment is quite ironic on a thread slating remain voters ignorance.

Most of the remarks from the march are not worth commenting on. However, this caught my eye:
“Now you’ve had time to think about it – Leave or Remain?”
I’ve had been thinking about the UK’s membership of the EU since February 7th 1992. That’s a little shy of 9,000 days leading up to the referendum. I imagine that’s far longer than most of those calling for a “People’s Vote”. My decision to vote to leave if given the chance (which was actually made in 1992) has not been swayed by much since then. In fact it has only been reinforced. It certainly wasn’t swayed by the mis-information I was given by politicians (from both sides) during the referendum campaign. It’s every voter’s duty to assume that politicians are telling lies unless they have concrete evidence to the contrary. And it most certainly hasn’t been swayed by the utter stupidity of UK politicians nor by the antics of the EU team in the last couple of years.

That would be fine, Zacs, if the EU had not suggested that we would not enjoy the benefits of some of the major projects that we had contributed to and for which they are still seeking payment. Any normal negotiators, when faced with such duplicitous cheek would tell the other side to go forth and multiply and suggest their next meeting would be in court.
