@dougrumsey4288 A lot more assets are about to follow. Banks are just waiting for the results of the negotiations.

@dougrumsey4288 Well, Germany pays more for defense than the UK.
1
@dougrumsey4288 Correct, but Germany still spends more money in absolute terms on defense than the UK.
1
@dougrumsey4288 Russia is irrelevant if compared to the EU.
1
@dougrumsey4288 Well, I am not Russian, and I am not important enough to justify such an attack. But all this secret service stuff has nothing to do with the Russian defense.
1
@dougrumsey4288 A naturalized British citizen of Russia origin. But once again, this has nothing to do with the Russian defense.
1
@dougrumsey4288 Well, this is horrible, but not really a danger to soziety. Much worse in this respect is RT. They are pushing fringe ideologies in many countries, facilitating the self destruction of soziety. This results in Brexit, Trump, Johnson.... That is the attack we need to expect and overcome.

@dougrumsey4288 Well, now you agree that Brexit was (partly) caused by Russian propaganda, based on the motivation of harming the UK. Seems you have done a 180°.
1
@dougrumsey4288 Well, Brexit is a cook up of people that want to harm the UK. People that will profit from the deterioration of the UK. David Cameron was an idiot, if you want changes in the EU you need to search for allies and you need to be willing to pay for the bulk of the cost these changes would generate. Cameron asked to make changes to the benefit of the UK and the detriment of all other countries. The EU agreed to too much, if they had agreed to anything more all involved politicians would have deserved to lose their jobs.

@dougrumsey4288 Well, your answer tell a lot about you and the UK. The decision was never about the EU. It was about the UK and 27 other countries, all of these with their own interests. Why on earth should any of these countries agree to a rule that benefited the UK and was detrimental for itself?
1
@dougrumsey4288 The UK needs a deal, the EU does not. - The UK will loose the preferred access to the larger part of its exports, the countries of the EU only to a small percentage. - The EU is ready for no deal, they started preparing 4 years ago. The UK has not really prepared. -Covid 19 has hit the UK harder than any country in the EU.

@dougrumsey4288 Well, when Illusion hits reality, reality will always win.
1
@dougrumsey4288 Well, things will change, and you have no reason to blame the downfall of the UK on the EU.
1
@dougrumsey4288 Sure, and "project fear" has turned into fact in every step until now.
1
@dougrumsey4288 Well, at present the debt to GDP of the UK is worse than the same value for the EU. And you are still in the transition period.

@and6669 Wha has the behavior of Russia and Turkey to do with the European preparation for Brexit? We are talking about different countries and issues. But sure, we need to counteract Russian propaganda that tries to destroy western civilization. The UK (Brexit) and the USA (Trump) are examples of how this danger can severely damage a country. But regarding Brexit, obviously, no one would have invested in these preparations before the result of the referendum was announced.
1
@and6669 Well, if the Euro would have been used in the trade of commoditys market instead of the dollar, we would have been much better shilded fron the chaos in the USA. But sure, the USA see the Euro as a threat to their way of life. But we as the EU are responsible for our own market not for the USA.
1
@and6669 Well the guys at the top of the EU are efficient and reasonable, unlike the leadership in the UK.
1
@and6669 Well, in the last two posts you have shown how deluded you are. There is nothing more to say.
1
Well, the EU has offered a FTA according to the political declaration, signed by Johnson. The UK, however, rejected it.
1
@benloki6788 What is your point. But please consider, the level playing field is a part of the trade deal promised in the political declaration.
1
@benloki6788 The financial industry of the UK wants access to the common market. So your deal should be similar to the deal of Switzerland. You, however, do not want freedom of movement. So you want a worse deal than Switzerland. It may be a bit similar to the deal of Turkey. But, once again, you are not a member of the EEA, so it needs to be worse than Turkey. A similar deal to Canada is impossible, as you do not have 7 years to negotiate, the border staff to allow for similar checks, and yor banks need access to the common market. Most of the fishing rights predate the EU by several decades. It optimized usage of the stocks by preventing continental fishermen from catching juvenile fish that later migrates to British waters.

@benloki6788 Will you finish your post?
1
@benloki6788 Banks cannot have access to the common market without adhering to EU rules anything else would be madness. There are two ways, this can be reached either the UK accept a level playing field or the banks move to the EU. These banks are not owned by the UK, they are in London to serve the European market. If this is no longer possible they will move or found subsidiaries on the Continent. This process is already going on. Housing prices in Frankfurt are in a steep rise. Banks have no heavy equipment they only need office space to operate.

@benloki6788 Thatcher has known this. This is the reason she pushed for the common market for services in the first place.
1
@benloki6788 Fine for us, but what will you do before your costumes are ready for no deal? This will be August 2021 according to Gove or 2025 according to experts.
1
@benloki6788 Well, good luck.
