    To be totally realistic the idea of an industrial country like Germany managing it's energy needs solely on renewables is nonsensical, at least at present. What Europe has done is swap reliance on cheap piped gas to reliance on expensive LNG. If German and European industrialists don't speak out soon then industry will move to america or Asia. These advocates, climate activists, seem to have more influence than their support base would suggest and for the life of me I can't understand why!

    Many SMEs may find it less expensive to accept tariffs under the TCA as that's cheaper than than filling in the forms and going through the processes now required to avoid the same tariffs. On the topic of the ECHR and the ECtHR, We now have to delve into the murky depths of the policies of the Seventeenth Century Monster Raving Loony Party. They want to go back to the good old (and we're talking late Seventeenth Century here) days where they could throw their weight around unchecked. They want the GFA gone. The modern ERG version of the Tory Party also doesn't like the ECHR (weird but there you are) since it was one of the great things to come out of the Second World War.

      You voted Leave, that is all. How to actually leave, and how to answer millions of individual decisions concerning how to leave, you did not vote on at all (let alone what to do after). The usage of the terms hard and soft brexit, concerning all these millions of decisions, is short hand for a spectrum of cooperation and non cooperation. i.e. do we say stuff the good friday agreement (hard brexit) or try to come up with some way to save it (soft brexit). And remember the good friday agreement took years to write up and sign and followed many many years of troubles and it is one single agreement. Your coin toss vote doesn't begin to answer how to deal with this one problem let alone the entire rest of our co-dependence on the EU.

    The final "rejoin comment" points to why the people need to emigrate. After Scots and the NI leave the union, England and Wales would go through some economic pain, and evolve into a Republic. This would happen when the elected government can no longer blame the EU for the pain, and the anger would turn towards the most wealthy in the nation. Canada will end up receiving more of the royals.

They try to prevent war and refugee crisis and when it happens because of the UK, rather resolve it. They try to stop money laundering and return taxis to the state and people, rather than letting it all disappear in tax heavens They try to improve human rights and stop illegal torture and not openly demolish all of them. But most importantly, they don't like free flowing shit for sovereign sewage. The main point is, they are doing very well and much better without the UK!!!!!!!!!! FREEDOM

The weak May government did not help and the EU have politicized the Good Friday Agreement in their favour. It was sickening watching the EU bureaucrats sneering at a sovereign nation like that scumbag Tusk. You think he was interested in negotiating with the UK in good faith?? It was a betrayal to watch our own House of Commons say they respected the vote, then tried to overturn it.

The EU said that Britain will be treated just like ANY other non EU country, exactly like America, Russia, Japan etc with the same procedures & paperwork and travel rights for their citizens. When the British people was told that, the brexit people said it was fear mongering because the EU (Note 450 million people!) is needing the UK (63 million) more than the UK needs them, and therefore GB would get some super duper special VIP treatment getting everything they wanted. Unfortunately, it didn't work, you are a country outside EU, treated like it, no matter what your press is screaming out. People has said that the EU will collapse soon for 35 years now. And, you seem a little uneducated about sovereignty, you wouldn't call EU "undemocratic". The one who politicized the good Friday agreement was LORD FROST. , search internet and you will find all the facts. Oh, one more thing, the EU has less unelected bureaucrats than what you have, and, talking about that, who voted for your house of Lords? Who voted Lord Frost in? Wait, he wasn't elected. At all.

      Most people assume when we talk about a deal that it would be something internal and external laws allows. The deal you write about, due to your lack of knowledge, would be against the law like a deal with a bank using a gun. One reason, if not the only, is the Good Friday agreement Britain has signed. And well, regarding the single market, when Britain joined, the British economy was below also France and Italy. Joining Britain managed to surpass both and become number two within the EU. And for the future, just wait and see.

      If you actually bothered to read the TCA (hint: I have - all 2,500 pages of it), you would realise that it is barely, really only barely better than full-on WTO only Rules. Be thankful for small mercies. There is even no place for the ECJ in the deal. It is administered by processes laid down in the Vienna Conventions. This is the only TCA the EU has negotiated that doesn't rely on the ECJ to adjudicate it. If the Tories carry on with their NI Protocol Bill, The EU may very well suspend the TCA completely. Then you will be introduced to WTO/GATT24 Rules in all their majesty. And you will subsequently learn about "Most Favoured Nation Status Rules" in all their gory and extremely expensive glory.
