Hello, I'm new to Biticon trade and I've been making huge losses but recently i see a lot of people earning from it. Please can someone tell me what to do?
@@dannyarcher6370 Is that all you tory boys can come up with. No matter what crisis happens next, comes the reply.. "it would be worse under labour!". That is now the only defence of this shit show of a govt you have left. But believe me it could not be worse than this.
@@royboy565 I think there are probably infinitely many ways things could be worse than "this". And of all parties, Labour would be capable of making the most of them. Perhaps they'd embroil the UK in another two decade war in the middle east that achieves nothing.

@@dannyarcher6370 Well don't blame Communists or Marxists. They are not the ones in power in UK. They are not the ones who "arrest" i.e. kidnap you for the BULLSHIT FAKE "crime" of defamation. Free speech is absolute. Anyone has the freedom to say anything they want about anyone and it does not have to be provably true. Individuals are free to ignore laws that force them to go to court over bullshit like "defamation".

Since Norway does not partake in the common fisheries policy, quotas between Norway and EU members were always under periodic renegotiation. And didn't Norway and the UK come to an agreement for new quotas just last month?
The notion of Britain being more "democratic" post Brexit is quite absurd, and a almost comical in a way. The UK relies on a first past the post -style election system, which is highly undemocratic, as it greatly distorts the results when compared to proportional representation (where 5% of the vote gives a party 5% of the seats in parliament). Also, in order to work properly, a democracy needs all voters to receive a decent education in schools before voting age. These voters will then also need unbiased information about political affairs in their country by their local media. These are all core elements that a democracy needs to properly function, and the UK is greatly struggling to keep it's head above water in these issues. When part of the legislative power of the UK was located in Brussels, one could argue that the UK was more democratic then, since it's laws were partially written by elected officials from countries with much higher democratic standards, such as Finland, Denmark, Germany, The Netherlands etc.
@@bentaylor102 Except its not. The EU doesnt legislate the vast majority of member's laws and on rare occasions they do its done by mep's who are directly elected by the people. What did you think you were voting for when the term mep came up on the ballot?
Is there any official way us, the public, in the uk can call out on the government’s bull crap in any meaningful way? It’s irritating to see our current leader wasting time and money on this tripe.
The Canadian truckers are doing just that. It’s called a rebellion of the plebs. If you add an irreplaceable value to the system then you have the power to withhold your participation. It only works if you’re valuable though.
@@Bushflare But you see! The government in the UK is right now passing laws to stop people from protesting! With how loose the anti-protesting laws are, I can imagine just sitting at home drinking coffee rather than doing work will count for being brutally beaten by the police for "protesting".
@@jakalordarkblood4331 Aye, but what else is new? The only major party in the U.K. which actually included protections for Free Speech in its manifesto was UKIP and they probably only did it because they knew it wouldn’t matter. The Tories, Labour, Lib Dems, Greens, SNP, etc have all joined hands in robbing us of our civic and human rights for decades now so this isn’t really a surprise as far as I’m concerned.
I have not heard any benefits of Brexit. Everything they say was a benefit, they couldve done while in the EU, so basically no difference. I still stand that Brexit was the worst decision Britain has made recently.
Benefits of Brexit prices went up by 30% transport to and from suppliers in the EU got costlier and longer travel got restricted. We got more immigrants, shortage of drivers was because the driver agency went on strike not to do with brexit at all over 500,000 hgv and psv licences were witheld due to strike action
To be fair, there is inflation pretty much globally. I never had a problem with immigrants, a lot of Brexit types didn't either, actually, although I'd be lying if I said it wasn't a factor.
EU freedom of movement vs closed borders in England: yes, for Europeans it is no longer an option to visit London. And on the subject of immigration, England has hardly taken in immigrants before, especially not from non-EU countries. Maybe from India, but that was GB relationships. The power over the law. Yes, finally allowed the English to measure in inches instead of millimetres again. Even if spare parts are still needed in millimetres. For this purpose, many EU standards were copied into UK national standards. Fishing. The Belgians came with an old contract from an English king. The Belgians had granted asylum to the English king until the violent situation in England calmed down again. In return, the English king gave the Belgians this document with fishing rights. The authenticity of this document was never questioned by London. And to be honest, when different nations fish in the same waters, agreements are needed. Blue passports, but fewer countries to travel easily. Some Englishmen migrated to the EU and received national EU passports there. They were allowed to keep the old British ones. Some remember having Irish ancestors... Germany still offers German passports if the ancestors had German documents before 1933. A possibility for the grandchildren. The whole EU is open to them. This applies to Jews who have fled.
"Nonsence"? LOL. But yeah, I was not expecting much meat in this report, mostly because there are very, very few benefits from Brexit, and significantly more disadvantages.
We can't cut EU red tape, we have as much chance of cutting US red tape or the Russians of cutting British red tape, we have no legal right or any kind of ability to mess with another countries laws, the only way we could cut EU red tape is by being part of the EU and thus having a say in the rules
You can't cut eu red tape because it is already designed to be the most efficient. Moving away from it will always involve adding more burocracy and regulation.
@@baronvonlimbourgh1716 well true but my point was we can't cut the tape because it's other countries laws not our own, sadly a lot of people in the UK seem to believe this rubbish, worse our PM believe his own lies
@@davidorf3921 it is just a matter of perception. What you call not your own are still laws proposed by memberstates, including the uk, negotiated by the uk to a point where they are happy with them because they could never have been implemented without the uk's permission. Making them just as much british as french or german. Just because they are shared does not mean they are not your own. In the end it's just a label.
This only can suck. The strategic situations are entirely different, and none of the other 3 countries is keen on lining up behind a devided kingdom run by a buch of criminals lead by a liar.
@@Bushflare if it is so obvious, i really don't think he would still be in office. edit: not trying to be condescending nor hostile, i'm just staying mr johnson really knows his trade well.
So the UK was a benefiting member of the EU, was allowed to keep its own currency and that wasn't enough? It's the Europeans fault, they should have been members of the UK, you know, , pledging allegiance to the Queen etc etc all under the Union Jack extolling the virtues of the British people.
It's good too see that there no difference if you live in the EU or no longer in it ... Politicians have there own truth and make promises only they believe in...
They should give a copy of this laughable Benefits of Brexshit Report to every international lorry driver. They could burn it to keep warm whilst waiting for hours in huge queues just to get their customs clearance. As long as they keep a couple of pages to use as toilet paper. Then this juvenile document would at least serve some useful purpose.
Im for Brexit (as much as a Canadian can be), and I have to acknowledge this just looks like partisan propaganda..........how can a government write 100 pages just patting themselves on the back
Reasons I have heard from Brexiteers on why they want to leave. Vacuum cleaner power Fish and chips not being allowed to be wrapped in newspaper The confusing colours of wheelie bins Having to wear a hard hat on building site Fear of being conscripted into a European army. Not letting us have the death penalty If you got a funny brexiteer reason, please let me know.
The UK has one of the most restrictive hate-speech law in the world. The government saying they got out of Europe to encourage free speech (6.46) is extraordinarily rich.
Absolute waste of time, energy, and money on such useless "report", which underlined again that current government is useless and obsolete... In comparison, even to East European countries, the level of recycling policy is poor, practically doest exist.
I'm just sad at this point... I know it's not all brexit; obviously, things have been compounded by the pandemic, but I've completely lost hope for my future in this country. I feel like by the end of this year, there will be the kind of mass unrest we've not seen since the poll tax roits. I'm sincerely hoping New Zealand will grant me and my Mrs a Visa so we can leave.
They really put the new passport colour into the report? Wow! If that isn't a confession of failure what then? Even if the new colour would only have been possible after leaving the EU, which isn't the case, what actually is the benefit of a different passport colour?
So, basically, almost all the benefits of brexit could have been done while being in the EU. Pretty much showing everybody that they just used the EU as a scapegoat for basically everything.
@@johnforbes8282 sorry but you are wrong. The EU has NEVER made any law and implemented that in UK law. I cannot believe that you come up with this ridiculous old stupid argument.
@@sambland3903 well obviously not every law: a club house might not have a dress code, but you wouldn't expect to be allowed to enter whilst completely naked either.
@@sambland3903 yes it could, just like any other EU country DOES. every country has diferrent legislation thats why Denmark is so different than Greece for example.
@@prashanthbharadwaj5504 it it’s actually a “French-designed Polish-printed new UK passport” … I’m not joking!! The new “brexit” passports are made by the Franco-Dutch firm Gemalto at its site in Tczew, Poland
It's almost as if the Russian-backed, utopian Singapore on the Thames (a reference to a dictatorship run by oligarchs, where foreigners go to launder money), Brexit campaign was never meant to benefit britons...
@@sambland3903 Some of the EU's financial centres have seen more investment as companies reduce operations in London, but you're right that Brexit was bad for the EU (although the net contributions surely pale in comparison to the reduction in trade).
@@sambland3903 Of course not only benefits or only loses, but many businesses have moved to the EU, I know personally a few cases of EU businesses who saw their competitors being knocked out of the market, the EU as a whole has been more unified, rather than closer to the verge of collapsing like Brexiteers predicted, the EU can often be more decisive without the UK
I guess that the chapter on "removing EU red tape" will get a hearty laugh from any Briton trying to make a living on exporting goods or services to the EU...
It's technically true they did remove the EU red tape by making everyone trade with people outside the EU since it's so shit trying to trade with the EU now.
@@bmmaaate I'm sorry to read this. I'd love some of the "Bring it on!" crowd to step forward to try and explain you how he or she could think a no deal Brexit would be a brilliant idea.
... and I'm always looking for the nearest emergency exit. BoJo could have been diving off the sinking Titanic and claimed Britain has struck a mighty blow against unelected icebergs.
@@Phil_AKA_ThundyUK I get what you're saying, although if the government wanted to take the damage control approach they could have voted for Theresa May's deal. I think it's more the Tories didn't want to alienate their supporters more so than the governments hands being tied.
“Let me issue and control a nation's money and I care not who writes the laws” - Mayer Amschel Rothschild The world is controlled by elite billionaire banking families, not the elected representatives in government. They are mere puppets.
Thanks for breaking that down, really interesting. Also I love the governments constant barrage of good brexit points, mostly being things they could have just done anyway when they were in the EU.
That also shows that all the things they now "could do" will never happen because they could do them before and simply chose to not do them. And blamed the eu as the excuse for not doing them. Nothing is going to change, they will simply find another excuse going forward.
@@drlukas4242 or near future 🤷♂️ If lisa nandy takes over labour I can see them winning, and she seems quite passionate about doing good, and everyone has seen the effect of brexit, so maybe there will be another referendum which will be more successful
The biggest problem with Brexit isn't if it's good or not but that the people in charge had no plan for an alternative outside the EU. The Tories didn't want Brexit but felt pressured from the UKIP crowd to not lose the general election in 2015. And they didn't even believe that the referendum was going to be for a Yes anyway, the Scottish Independence Referendum was reassuring enough for them. So this Brexit sh1tshow is very predicable when you factor in these circumstances.
My biggest problem with Brexit is that a simple majority was enough. It's not your regular parliamentary election when you can vote differently in a few years if you are not happy with the outcome. In such an important decision a 2/3 majority should be needed imho.
@@buskergirl If we are to begin adding caveats to such a vote then a 2/3rds majority is a bad idea because it overwhelmingly privileges the cities. If we’re going to try and make this more fair then it should be dealt with through a bespoke set of calculations which would add weight to votes from communities which are less populated to prevent a tyranny by majority and to ensure everyone’s concerns are valued equally, even if their votes are not. However, that’s maddeningly difficult to do so we generally just go with who got the most votes.
@@Bushflare Regardless of what vote it is, I've never understood that idea of scarcely populated rural areas getting high vote percentages than the millions of other people that live in cities, it just means people in higher populated areas are worth less, when they are the majority that government policy will impact. Not saying rural areas should be ignored, they have different problems that need addressing but if a policy that one one person likes makes the lives on 10 people worse then is that really fair.
Of course it is great. Mr Johnson says that to eveyone, whatever their version of great is. To be fair politicians are all like that It's just Mr Johnson takes it to an even greater extreme.
Watching from outside how the entire thing with Brexit developed and keeps developing, is like watching a solo car-crash in slow motion, provoked by the complete drunk-driver itself, because he believed that if he pushed his car fast enough in a turn his car would start flying instead of flipping-over...
Small correction: While the EU did not prohibit us funding the NHS , the claim was that all the fees we pay to the EU could be put into the NHS without raising taxes. But, as we all know now, taxes will go up from April 2022 anyways...to fund the NHS, among other things.
But just because taxes are going to go up doesn't mean fees paid to the EU aren't going to the NHS as well. They could both be happening at once, and taxes could still be offset.
The EU (although few) grants powerful rights its citizens. For example the privacy law (I think it was called the right to disappear), where you can get a company to delete all data related to you, with a fine up to a few % of revenue for all companies operating in the EU if they break the law, which is a big deal.
I think you're referring to 'the right to be forgotten' and if that's the case it's honestly not that impressive. If it's not and I'm talking about a different thing please just ignore my rant below. First of all some countries outside of the EU have it as well. Second it it doesn't make companies delete all their data about you it just forces then to remove certain information about you from the internet. And if you know one thing about the internet it's that the internet doesn't forget no matter how hard you try.
@@patrickstar5136 no that’s not true, you have the right to request that a data controller (any company with access to your data) delete your data entirely, as long as it’s no longer needed for the purpose for which it was gathered. Data controllers also have a list of expectations and restrictions, like not reusing data for a purpose other than which it was given, and an obligation to alert customers and the state’s data commissioner of a breach. There’s nothing stopping any country from passing laws that mirror the GDPR, but thanks to the GDPR, countries in the EU can’t abridge the rights of their citizens to control their data.
A normal country can vote for a government proposing such a law. If its population wants it. Why need EU involvement? Only if a) I want this law b) my country's population won't vote for it c) that's unacceptable. I must get my own way d) therefore I want the EU to over rule my country's population
@@danielwebb8402 a) because human rights should be above legislative control, and commonly most countries have a constitution which will contain a set of rights - at a minimum the right to vote for example. b) because every individual within the EU has a a right to live and reside anywhere in the common market - ergo, they can expect a minimum number of rights no matter where they go. c) Cross-border rights and consumer protection. Let’s say you’re buying something online from Germany, but you live in ireland. You want that German company which is handling your name, address, and credit card details to be accountable to you, and you need a mechanism to dispute them if they’re behaviour doesn’t live up to that standard. A common legal framework enables people to do this between EU countries.
I remember reading an article in DM many years ago about EU banning light bulbs. The truth was that the whole world was doing it and instead of every EU country passing a law it was easier to do it for EU as a whole. That was not how it was presented in the article though. The thing that really shocked me was the comments. Thousands of comments full of hate since the UK could no longer decide on it’s own which light bulbs they could use and people actually wanted to go to war over it. That is what caused Brexit so when I saw there was going to be a referendum I placed a bet and won some money. Which means I actually did benefit from Brexit.
But the uk could decide on it's own if it wanted to ban incondecent lamps or not. It could have simply not agreed with the proposal and it would have never made it in to eu law. It only became eu law because the uk agreed to the fact that this old technology should be banned.
I can only imagine that the collective IQ of the incandescent bulb proponents was that of a jar of moldy mustard... How can you argue FOR obsolete energy-wasting technology??
Guessing the contents page is longer than the actual content. Cutting EU is also nonsensical since the UK has no power to change EU legislation and any UK legislation is by definition UK red tape. They're just using this as a cover to take away rights and protections enshrined in UK law.
I think that sometimes, in your effort to be unbiased and objective, you end up being extremely charitable to the current government. As if it deserves the benefit of our doubts. This report is not written in shades of grey, it's mostly the colours of the Bristol stool chart.
I felt that too - he is trying so hard to sound unbiased that at times I thought "A Brexiter would watch this video and think its a positive". But alas, there is no winning. If we say hard, un sugar coated truths, we just get called remoaners and ignored.
The UK is out of the EU. There's no EU red tape to cut other than UK law. I'm mainly questioning what's holding them up like this. They've had over 5 years to make plans concerning what changes to make post Brexit. Shouldn't they've already made their changes?
The Tories have never cared about UK trade, only ever about continuing their City of London Russian money laundering and off-shore tax evasion. That's all Brexit has ever been about. 2016 EU anti-corruption legislation would have shut down all that Tory corruption. Hence their High Court proven fraudulent 'referendum' forcing Brexit on the UK.
I'm pretty sure the front bench would take over 5 years to organise a piss up in a brewery. Organising a piss up in a pandemic however, they seem quite apt at.
How will they save money on EU red tape when they've increased the amount of red tape by leaving it's trading block therefore increasing the costs involved as well as increasing waiting times for lorries etc. at the border. That's before all the required border controls are even put into place.
Everything could be done while in the EU, except maybe for the bits that actually require you to be a big player to do well (and the Empire dies a long time ago). Smart. Very smart. At least Tories can rampage all the struggling industries and get back into the EU in 40-50 years, when the Tories own every single bit of the UK. It's not all bad, is it?
Yeah, not great report 1:45 their point was that the job was underpaid because of the availability of immigrant labour, so yeah when they no longer had that the companies lost drivers, complained, then increased the pay and now the gap is shortening, I think this one is working as hoped. Stuffs more expensive but the truckers are better off. Similar with several other industries. 2:23 well yeah not everything, we are part of many agreements that predate the EEC and other non-eu member states also have these deals. 2:55 very true a terrible waste of money and effort from a economic sense and strategically/militarily we're too closely tied to the rest of NATO and france for the extra rights to mean anything any time soon. 3:07 You didn't even get to the worst part, I've getting a new passport soon and blue would be great but the new passports aren't blue, there black prettymuch, it might grow on me though 3:50 I mean saying they could just have spent more money while in the EU is like well okay sure. But yeah that bus was pure propaganda like 160 million a week of that came right back to the UK, plus its all more complicated than just the eu is stealing 10 billion pounds 4:40 yeah I got no idea about those. 5:00 Yeah I got no idea about this either, looking at GDP we've climbed ahead of india and france in the last few years, though IDK thats just a number getting bigger, plus covids making everyone life worse so who knows. 6:30 it already is that, biggest in Europe. 7:10 nope just more people to waste time asking. 8:20 yeah pretty screwed up, 1st another propaganda piece. Informative report 3rd or 4th
I never thought that Brexit was a good idea, I thought that cutting off a market of 450 million wealthy customers and no longer having a well ordered workforce on tap for our industries and services would be a disaster. But now I discovered that we can have the beautiful crown symbol printed on our beer glasses and have a completely different colour passport, it all seems to be making so much more sense.
@Leroy Jenkins Alpha except you and them gonna have much more trouble being able to to thay. Not to mention getting cut off from funding thanks to no long being apart of the EU, which makes scholars and so on less likely to go there
The benefits of Brexit: nothing concrete yet, but hey, Brexit is a good thing so it can only lead to other good things in the future, we just don't know what they are yet!
@@aninjatuna8576 Labour is as cheap as a govt wants it to be... When govt lets employers get away with paying less than minimum wage, that indeed is not a progressive policy.

May I make a suggestion on a topic for a new video ? There is no country called "EU". There is no EU state nor EU sovereign. No member of the EU stopped being a sovereign country while in the EU. There is not one rule made by the EU, that didn't need signing on by all member states of the EU that willingly wanted to implement it. And Britain signed up for it and has been a significant member of it. And there are exemptions enough, specifically made on the request of the UK for the UK. Everything that happend, happend because your government signed on to it. Your rightwing media - which is almost all of them - in cahoots with your rightwing parties, made up that lie about being supressed by the EU. And since I'm not a member of your parliament, I can say without being forced out: Boris Johnson is a liar, your government is lying to you, Brexit is based on a lie, you fell for a lie! Yes, more border and imigration controls and more trade deals (really ? you're having more and better trade deals now ?) was exactly what the EU was NOT about. So f** *** *** epic rant (censored) *** *** The EU was founded to have exactly none of it. And me as a german have had enough bullshitters in the past to spot one in the present...
The truth and no mistake. The state of Britain has been brought about exclusively by it's own series of grossly incompetent Governments of both Tory & Labour ! All of which are terrified of losing their places on the 'taxpayer' funded 'gravy train' ! As a Englishman, I have nothing but contempt for UK Politics & politicians !

Thomas seems to be one of the "EU-friendly" Germans that "believe" in the EU rather than study it's law, structure and political issues. At first, Thomas is wrong regarding the unanimity: with the Lisbon Treaty a qualified majority in the council became the new normal, so there is a rule that individual signing by each member state is irrelevant. At second, the "you got what you signed"-argument is completely wrong. No EU member state signed for Angela Merkel's "irregular" migration in 2015 that was, according to both German and EU law illegal. But since Germans get "educated" by far-left public media, they believe that refugee is a synonym for migrants without visa and asylum is protection of people in need (ARD: "Schutz fur Menschen in Not"). Germany, the moral pioneer in not-agreed-upon-"human rights" itself is struggling with developments that they didn't signed on, most prominently the "ultra vires"-causa between the German BVerfG and the CJEU.

3:10 - Yup, my Croatian passport is "beautiful blue", exactly the same as it was before joining, except that the "European Union / Europska unija" was added in small-ish print at the top. Not that I have any particular preference concerning the color of passport covers. I probably wouldn't like pink, bright orange or lime green (not white - gets dirty easily), but that is _really_ right_ at the bottom of the list of my concerns. Edit: I did it again: commenting before watching to the end :o)
Having to follow EU rules to get the CE sign to be able to export without having any say over those rules, a huge benefit indeed! Crown stamps on glasses were never prohibited, end of free movement backfired in both directions: Many workers missing so that e.g. culled animals are sent to the EU to be processed there to then buy back the meat while at the same time pensioners can only stay for 90 days in their homes in the EU. More control over legislation up to the point to silence the "sovereign" parliament and to disallow it to scrutinize any capitulations signed to other countries and praised as "trade deals" for those who won't read their contents anyway. Blue passports were always allowed just like the early adaption of vaccination as the UK did indeed while still in the transition period. Foreign Direkt Investment went down to just 30% of what it was in 2018 meaning that the UK had more FDI than Germany in 2018 and in 2020, Germany got more since Brexit Britain is not interesting for foreign investment any longer. Additional red tape introduced by leaving the single market costs UK businesses 7.5 billion every year according to government figures, closer to 20 billion according to other sources and the 50,000 additionally needed customs officers will cost some 1.3 to 1.7 billion per year which combined means 8.8 to 9.2 billion while the net contribution to the EU was only 8.5 billion. The loss of 4% of GDP as stated by the OBR means a loss of 86 billion per year or 1.66 billion per week as opposed to the announced gain of 350 million per week. All of this results in less tax revenue that now leads to new taxes that are unfortunately not called Brexit taxes which is what they actually are but blamed on covid and therefore somehow associated with health care while all they do there is cover the incredible corruption shown by the government in wasting 37 billion on a still not working test and trace system plus 8.7 billion in lost PPE that won't be recoverd and the list goes on and on...
Yeah pretty much spot-on with that . The £7.5 billion cost to UK businesses was just on the additional paperwork et cetera to export . The new measures introduced on the 1st of January 2022 and additional measures in July are estimated to cost another £13.5 billion for businesses in both imports and exports .

On the list of nations by foreign debt the UK firmly holds a good second place behind the USA, and with increasing spending and decreasing tax revenues, it will defenitely defend this place.
@@andreasarnoalthofsobottka2928 Please explain how you imagine to keep the second place when investments into the UK are dwindling and other countries get more than the UK does when the UK used to get more than other countries got. The UK DID build up that second place over time but it will not be able to keep it since inverstors do not like the uncertainty of the rogue state the UK has become, see the following figures just for the three countries BoJoke mentioned: For comparison, I looked for a "neutral" page and found santandertrade which lists Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) for Germany (G), France (F) and the UK as follows (all figures in million USD) 2018 G: 62,073 F: 38,185 UK: 65,299 2019 G: 54,063 F: 33,965 UK: 45,454 2020 G: 35,651 F: 17,932 UK: 19,724 Which means that the UK had 105 % of Germany's FDI back in 2018 and only 55% of it in 2020 or to put differently: In 2020, Germany still got 57% of the FDI it got in 2018, France still got 47% but the UK only received 30% of it which clearly indicates that foreign investors do not like Brexit Britain. What BoJoke may have referred to are the total figures: Germany 1,059,326 France 968,138 UK 2,206,202 But these figures stem from pre Brexit times when foreign investment went more into the UK than into Germany which now has reversed, so it looks like it is only a matter of time until Germany will have more FDI also in total than the UK has.
Brexiteers are always claiming to be ahead with vaccinations but Spain, enjoying all the benefits of EU membership, is way ahead in the percentage of the population fully vaccinated and boosted.

How much money is wasted with checks and paper work that was not there 2years ago! 7th point - We have sold in the UK in every trade deal, they are meaningless if not destructive, to various parts of the UK's economy. 8th point - The UK are no longer part of the EU's science programs - this will hinder not improve our ability to develope science and technology. 9th point - You can in the EU have nucleur powere - Brexit benefit that you all ready had is not a brexit benefit - you could of done it anyway. Does Anyone actually see any Real Tangable Benefits? This report highlights there are no benefits or the benefits are really lame like the colour of the passport or the stamp on a pint glass - the cost to the UK of these BENEFITS is rediculous !!!
I like how, When tasked to find a Brexit benefit, the best they can come up with was the refusal, of a suggestion, on the aesthetic of a document... I mean it's clear it's there for mass and nothing else, a bit like 80% of the bibliography in my first thesis.
benefits, in voting to leave the uk public knew that they were voting to become poorer and did it anyway, the reason for leaving the EU was so we could have our own rules and borders back. The situation with the EU was like this, heres a load of group rules, some we agree with and some we dont, this is like being at work the same thing applies. Then the EU wants to have the final say over all decisions, that's not a fair system, if like the brexit negotiations one side has an issue you need a neutral point of view for fair mediation. If you were in the same situation at work and you made a complaint and your boss had the final say over all decisions made. you would be stone walled and would leave.
@@johnforbes8282 then why doesn't the Brexit benefit report address what you are saying? why do they proclaim great opportunities outside and try so hard to find good things to say about it even when they are inconsequential? aren't they trying a bit too hard if everyone supporting brexit was already fine with less EU law?
We are still part of a lot of the EU science programs as they are not controlled by the government but by universities as funding bodies. I’ve been doing work for a lab that just got it’s EU funding renewed.
@@johnforbes8282 EU never "stonewalled". UK was an example of that with all its excemptions. Furthermore each member has a veto right to block or amend regulations. Lastly, every EU legislation also passed through the House of Commons. Your statement only shows little knowledge of EU, and much of Daily Mail/Express reading.
Brexit is going as well as a slow mo car crash. Best real life reality tv show since the Trump Presidency… I wonder if the British are aware that they’re basically a parody lol
Interestingly the EU's farming policy was actually adopted by the EU from the UK as a condition to the UK joining the EU in the first place to add to the mess the new policy they want to replace it with is based on the EU's old policy and is actually considered far worse by eavryone involved including the farmers, environmental organisations and the government's advisor's
Pretty much in line with all the other brexit bla bla. It's all about changing something that works for things that are proven not to work. Mostly because they are open to abuse and encourage fraud. Brexit in a nutshell.

@@phil2544 Y'all doomed then
The notion of Britain being more "democratic" post Brexit is quite absurd, and a almost comical in a way. The UK relies on a first past the post -style election system, which is highly undemocratic, as it greatly distorts the results when compared to proportional representation (where 5% of the vote gives a party 5% of the seats in parliament). Also, in order to work properly, a democracy needs all voters to receive a decent education in schools before voting age. These voters will then also need unbiased information about political affairs in their country by their local media. These are all core elements that a democracy needs to properly function, and the UK is greatly struggling to keep it's head above water in these issues. When part of the legislative power of the UK was located in Brussels, one could argue that the UK was more democratic then, since it's laws were partially written by elected officials from countries with much higher democratic standards, such as Finland, Denmark, Germany, The Netherlands etc.

"The Benefits of Brexit" shows a port and containership on its cover... how ironic.
I have not heard any benefits of Brexit. Everything they say was a benefit, they couldve done while in the EU, so basically no difference.
I still stand that Brexit was the worst decision Britain has made recently.
Benefits of Brexit prices went up by 30% transport to and from suppliers in the EU got costlier and longer travel got restricted. We got more immigrants, shortage of drivers was because the driver agency went on strike not to do with brexit at all over 500,000 hgv and psv licences were witheld due to strike action
To be fair, there is inflation pretty much globally.
I never had a problem with immigrants, a lot of Brexit types didn't either, actually, although I'd be lying if I said it wasn't a factor.
As a celebrity US judge once said "Don't pee on my leg and tell me it's raining".
Cutting red tape which will save business money, but they don't tell you what exactly = something that people won't want cut.
EU freedom of movement vs closed borders in England:
yes, for Europeans it is no longer an option to visit London.
And on the subject of immigration, England has hardly taken in immigrants before, especially not from non-EU countries. Maybe from India, but that was GB relationships.
The power over the law. Yes, finally allowed the English to measure in inches instead of millimetres again. Even if spare parts are still needed in millimetres. For this purpose, many EU standards were copied into UK national standards.
Fishing. The Belgians came with an old contract from an English king. The Belgians had granted asylum to the English king until the violent situation in England calmed down again. In return, the English king gave the Belgians this document with fishing rights.
The authenticity of this document was never questioned by London.
And to be honest, when different nations fish in the same waters, agreements are needed.
Blue passports, but fewer countries to travel easily.
Some Englishmen migrated to the EU and received national EU passports there. They were allowed to keep the old British ones. Some remember having Irish ancestors...
Germany still offers German passports if the ancestors had German documents before 1933. A possibility for the grandchildren. The whole EU is open to them. This applies to Jews who have fled.
"Nonsence"? LOL. But yeah, I was not expecting much meat in this report, mostly because there are very, very few benefits from Brexit, and significantly more disadvantages.
We can't cut EU red tape, we have as much chance of cutting US red tape or the Russians of cutting British red tape, we have no legal right or any kind of ability to mess with another countries laws, the only way we could cut EU red tape is by being part of the EU and thus having a say in the rules
You can't cut eu red tape because it is already designed to be the most efficient. Moving away from it will always involve adding more burocracy and regulation.
@@baronvonlimbourgh1716 well true but my point was we can't cut the tape because it's other countries laws not our own, sadly a lot of people in the UK seem to believe this rubbish, worse our PM believe his own lies

They really put the new passport colour into the report? Wow! If that isn't a confession of failure what then? Even if the new colour would only have been possible after leaving the EU, which isn't the case, what actually is the benefit of a different passport colour?

Am I blind, or are both the UK and Croatian passports black?

My biggest problem with Brexit is that a simple majority was enough. It's not your regular parliamentary election when you can vote differently in a few years if you are not happy with the outcome. In such an important decision a 2/3 majority should be needed imho.
@@buskergirl
If we are to begin adding caveats to such a vote then a 2/3rds majority is a bad idea because it overwhelmingly privileges the cities. If we’re going to try and make this more fair then it should be dealt with through a bespoke set of calculations which would add weight to votes from communities which are less populated to prevent a tyranny by majority and to ensure everyone’s concerns are valued equally, even if their votes are not.
However, that’s maddeningly difficult to do so we generally just go with who got the most votes.
@@Bushflare Regardless of what vote it is, I've never understood that idea of scarcely populated rural areas getting high vote percentages than the millions of other people that live in cities, it just means people in higher populated areas are worth less, when they are the majority that government policy will impact.

Small correction: While the EU did not prohibit us funding the NHS , the claim was that all the fees we pay to the EU could be put into the NHS without raising taxes. But, as we all know now, taxes will go up from April 2022 anyways...to fund the NHS, among other things.
Are you trying to suggest that Boris is a liar? I think you need to leave the building!
Cut NHS funding... wait.. increase funding again somewhat.. party hard?
Are you talking about the 350 million Brexit party bus thing?
But just because taxes are going to go up doesn't mean fees paid to the EU aren't going to the NHS as well. They could both be happening at once, and taxes could still be offset.

The EU (although few) grants powerful rights its citizens.

@@danielwebb8402 a) because human rights should be above legislative control, and commonly most countries have a constitution which will contain a set of rights - at a minimum the right to vote for example.
b) because every individual within the EU has a a right to live and reside anywhere in the common market - ergo, they can expect a minimum number of rights no matter where they go.
c) Cross-border rights and consumer protection. Let’s say you’re buying something online from Germany, but you live in ireland. You want that German company which is handling your name, address, and credit card details to be accountable to you, and you need a mechanism to dispute them if they’re behaviour doesn’t live up to that standard. A common legal framework enables people to do this between EU countries.
I remember reading an article in DM many years ago about EU banning light bulbs. The truth was that the whole world was doing it and instead of every EU country passing a law it was easier to do it for EU as a whole. That was not how it was presented in the article though. The thing that really shocked me was the comments. Thousands of comments full of hate since the UK could no longer decide on it’s own which light bulbs they could use and people actually wanted to go to war over it. That is what caused Brexit so when I saw there was going to be a referendum I placed a bet and won some money. Which means I actually did benefit from Brexit.
But the uk could decide on it's own if it wanted to ban incondecent lamps or not.
It could have simply not agreed with the proposal and it would have never made it in to eu law.
It only became eu law because the uk agreed to the fact that this old technology should be banned.
I can only imagine that the collective IQ of the incandescent bulb proponents was that of a jar of moldy mustard... How can you argue FOR obsolete energy-wasting technology??
Guessing the contents page is longer than the actual content. Cutting EU is also nonsensical since the UK has no power to change EU legislation and any UK legislation is by definition UK red tape.
They're just using this as a cover to take away rights and protections enshrined in UK law.
I think that sometimes, in your effort to be unbiased and objective, you end up being extremely charitable to the current government. As if it deserves the benefit of our doubts. This report is not written in shades of grey, it's mostly the colours of the Bristol stool chart.
I felt that too - he is trying so hard to sound unbiased that at times I thought "A Brexiter would watch this video and think its a positive". But alas, there is no winning. If we say hard, un sugar coated truths, we just get called remoaners and ignored.
The UK is out of the EU. There's no EU red tape to cut other than UK law.
I'm mainly questioning what's holding them up like this. They've had over 5 years to make plans concerning what changes to make post Brexit. Shouldn't they've already made their changes?
The Tories have never cared about UK trade, only ever about continuing their City of London Russian money laundering and off-shore tax evasion. That's all Brexit has ever been about. 2016 EU anti-corruption legislation would have shut down all that Tory corruption. Hence their High Court proven fraudulent 'referendum' forcing Brexit on the UK.
I'm pretty sure the front bench would take over 5 years to organise a piss up in a brewery.
Organising a piss up in a pandemic however, they seem quite apt at.
How will they save money on EU red tape when they've increased the amount of red tape by leaving it's trading block therefore increasing the costs involved as well as increasing waiting times for lorries etc. at the border. That's before all the required border controls are even put into place.
"Removing EU red tape"

Everything could be done while in the EU, except maybe for the bits that actually require you to be a big player to do well (and the Empire dies a long time ago).
Smart. Very smart.
At least Tories can rampage all the struggling industries and get back into the EU in 40-50 years, when the Tories own every single bit of the UK. It's not all bad, is it?
Yeah, not great report
1:45 their point was that the job was underpaid because of the availability of immigrant labour, so yeah when they no longer had that the companies lost drivers, complained, then increased the pay and now the gap is shortening, I think this one is working as hoped. Stuffs more expensive but the truckers are better off. Similar with several other industries.
2:23 well yeah not everything, we are part of many agreements that predate the EEC and other non-eu member states also have these deals.
2:55 very true a terrible waste of money and effort from a economic sense and strategically/militarily we're too closely tied to the rest of NATO and france for the extra rights to mean anything any time soon.
3:07 You didn't even get to the worst part, I've getting a new passport soon and blue would be great but the new passports aren't blue, there black prettymuch, it might grow on me though
3:50 I mean saying they could just have spent more money while in the EU is like well okay sure. But yeah that bus was pure propaganda like 160 million a week of that came right back to the UK, plus its all more complicated than just the eu is stealing 10 billion pounds
4:40 yeah I got no idea about those.
5:00 Yeah I got no idea about this either, looking at GDP we've climbed ahead of india and france in the last few years, though IDK thats just a number getting bigger, plus covids making everyone life worse so who knows.
6:30 it already is that, biggest in Europe.
7:10 nope just more people to waste time asking.
8:20 yeah pretty screwed up, 1st another propaganda piece. Informative report 3rd or 4th
I never thought that Brexit was a good idea, I thought that cutting off a market of 450 million wealthy customers and no longer having a well ordered workforce on tap for our industries and services would be a disaster. But now I discovered that we can have the beautiful crown symbol printed on our beer glasses and have a completely different colour passport, it all seems to be making so much more sense.
Glad to see that you have been swayed! PS. Brexit was not needed for those things. G'day!
@Beater Bike Channel You're a funny bot
@Leroy Jenkins Alpha except you and them gonna have much more trouble being able to to thay. Not to mention getting cut off from funding thanks to no long being apart of the EU, which makes scholars and so on less likely to go there
The benefits of Brexit: nothing concrete yet, but hey, Brexit is a good thing so it can only lead to other good things in the future, we just don't know what they are yet!

Importing cheap labour isn't the progressive argument you think it is
@@aninjatuna8576 Labour is as cheap as a govt wants it to be... When govt lets employers get away with paying less than minimum wage, that indeed is not a progressive policy.
@Tagedieb
Aye, it generally depends on who is providing the bias.
@@vullings1968 this argument is typically used to to portray workers as lazy and possessing a bad work ethic. It deflects the blame from capitalism and wage-labour instead onto its subjects.

The ONLY Brexit benefit is the one UK does not want to admit, it levelled up Northern Ireland because it’s still in the customs union.
The UK’s slow implosion is a good lesson to the rest of Europe. Thanks Brexit!
Everyone wanted to leave the EU

May I make a suggestion on a topic for a new video ? There is no country called "EU". There is no EU state nor EU sovereign. No member of the EU stopped being a sovereign country while in the EU. There is not one rule made by the EU, that didn't need signing on by all member states of the EU that willingly wanted to implement it. And Britain signed up for it and has been a significant member of it.
And there are exemptions enough, specifically made on the request of the UK for the UK. Everything that happend, happend because your government signed on to it. Your rightwing media - which is almost all of them - in cahoots with your rightwing parties, made up that lie about being supressed by the EU. And since I'm not a member of your parliament, I can say without being forced out: Boris Johnson is a liar, your government is lying to you, Brexit is based on a lie, you fell for a lie!
Yes, more border and imigration controls and more trade deals (really ? you're having more and better trade deals now ?) was exactly what the EU was NOT about. So f** *** *** epic rant (censored) *** *** The EU was founded to have exactly none of it. And me as a german have had enough bullshitters in the past to spot one in the present...
The truth and no mistake. The state of Britain has been brought about exclusively by it's own series of grossly incompetent Governments of both Tory & Labour ! All of which are terrified of losing their places on the 'taxpayer' funded 'gravy train' ! As a Englishman, I have nothing but contempt for UK Politics & politicians !

Thomas seems to be one of the "EU-friendly" Germans that "believe" in the EU rather than study it's law, structure and political issues.
At first, Thomas is wrong regarding the unanimity: with the Lisbon Treaty a qualified majority in the council became the new normal, so there is a rule that individual signing by each member state is irrelevant.
At second, the "you got what you signed"-argument is completely wrong. No EU member state signed for Angela Merkel's "irregular" migration in 2015 that was, according to both German and EU law illegal. But since Germans get "educated" by far-left public media, they believe that refugee is a synonym for migrants without visa and asylum is protection of people in need (ARD: "Schutz fur Menschen in Not"). Germany, the moral pioneer in not-agreed-upon-"human rights" itself is struggling with developments that they didn't signed on, most prominently the "ultra vires"-causa between the German BVerfG and the CJEU.
@@IHaveAHobby Let's all build walls around our countries, no one is allowed to leave, cut the internet, no outside contact!
About freedom of movement honestly you forgot to mention the fact the UK passport holders cannot move freely within EU anymore (apart Ireland).
Nah the UK people can't from roam in Ireland, only British people with Irish passports
@@theirishempire4952 They can because of the Common Travel Area. UK nationals do not need a visa or residency permit to live, work or study in Ireland.
@@kierancoughlan1378 Northern Irish people can. Not everyone in the entire UK
@@theirishempire4952 The UK, for the purposes of the Common Travel Area, covers England, Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland, the Isle of Man and the Channel Islands.

3:10 - Yup, my Croatian passport is "beautiful blue", exactly the same as it was before joining, except that the "European Union / Europska unija" was added in small-ish print at the top. Not that I have any particular preference concerning the color of passport covers. I probably wouldn't like pink, bright orange or lime green (not white - gets dirty easily), but that is _really_ right_ at the bottom of the list of my concerns.
Edit: I did it again: commenting before watching to the end :o)
Having to follow EU rules to get the CE sign to be able to export without having any say over those rules, a huge benefit indeed! Crown stamps on glasses were never prohibited, end of free movement backfired in both directions: Many workers missing so that e.g. culled animals are sent to the EU to be processed there to then buy back the meat while at the same time pensioners can only stay for 90 days in their homes in the EU.
More control over legislation up to the point to silence the "sovereign" parliament and to disallow it to scrutinize any capitulations signed to other countries and praised as "trade deals" for those who won't read their contents anyway.
Blue passports were always allowed just like the early adaption of vaccination as the UK did indeed while still in the transition period.
Foreign Direkt Investment went down to just 30% of what it was in 2018 meaning that the UK had more FDI than Germany in 2018 and in 2020, Germany got more since Brexit Britain is not interesting for foreign investment any longer.
Additional red tape introduced by leaving the single market costs UK businesses 7.5 billion every year according to government figures, closer to 20 billion according to other sources and the 50,000 additionally needed customs officers will cost some 1.3 to 1.7 billion per year which combined means 8.8 to 9.2 billion while the net contribution to the EU was only 8.5 billion.
The loss of 4% of GDP as stated by the OBR means a loss of 86 billion per year or 1.66 billion per week as opposed to the announced gain of 350 million per week.
All of this results in less tax revenue that now leads to new taxes that are unfortunately not called Brexit taxes which is what they actually are but blamed on covid and therefore somehow associated with health care while all they do there is cover the incredible corruption shown by the government in wasting 37 billion on a still not working test and trace system plus 8.7 billion in lost PPE that won't be recoverd and the list goes on and on...
Yeah pretty much spot-on with that .
The £7.5 billion cost to UK businesses was just on the additional paperwork et cetera to export .
The new measures introduced on the 1st of January 2022 and additional measures in July are estimated to cost another £13.5 billion for businesses in both imports and exports .
@@steveosborne2297 Thanks for the clarification. I still have to hear of a tangible benefit by anyone, so far, still nothing even after almost 6 years of intensive search. All just gaslighting.
On the list of nations by foreign debt the UK firmly holds a good second place behind the USA, and with increasing spending and decreasing tax revenues, it will defenitely defend this place.
@@andreasarnoalthofsobottka2928 Please explain how you imagine to keep the second place when investments into the UK are dwindling and other countries get more than the UK does when the UK used to get more than other countries got. The UK DID build up that second place over time but it will not be able to keep it since inverstors do not like the uncertainty of the rogue state the UK has become, see the following figures just for the three countries BoJoke mentioned:
For comparison, I looked for a "neutral" page and found santandertrade which lists Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) for Germany (G), France (F) and the UK as follows (all figures in million USD)
2018 G: 62,073 F: 38,185 UK: 65,299
2019 G: 54,063 F: 33,965 UK: 45,454
2020 G: 35,651 F: 17,932 UK: 19,724
Which means that the UK had 105 % of Germany's FDI back in 2018 and only 55% of it in 2020 or to put differently: In 2020, Germany still got 57% of the FDI it got in 2018, France still got 47% but the UK only received 30% of it which clearly indicates that foreign investors do not like Brexit Britain.
What BoJoke may have referred to are the total figures:
Germany 1,059,326
France 968,138
UK 2,206,202
But these figures stem from pre Brexit times when foreign investment went more into the UK than into Germany which now has reversed, so it looks like it is only a matter of time until Germany will have more FDI also in total than the UK has.
@@PEdulis I did explain how the UK will defend its second place on the list of Foreign DEBT.
Brexiteers are always claiming to be ahead with vaccinations but Spain, enjoying all the benefits of EU membership, is way ahead in the percentage of the population fully vaccinated and boosted.
When you measure success on ability to drink English sparkling wine, you know things have gone seriously sour... (and I don't mean, just the wine)
1st point - Can i mention this is not just freedom of movement for EU residents coming here but a restriction on UK residents going there ! so if a brexit bonus is locking me in the UK then i suppose its a bonus
2nd point - The fishing quota might be up but they fisherman cant sell what the catch, a bonus? you may say.... i doubt it!
3rd point - who cares what colour it is and it could of been done anyway!
4th point - there is no 350million a week to the NHS hence tax hikes!
5th point - The UK had free ports while part of the EU, the torries removed them in 2012 and now claim its a benefit of brexit to bring them back - its just lies!
6th point - Cutting red tape? How much money is wasted with checks and paper work that was not there 2years ago!
7th point - We have sold in the UK in every trade deal, they are meaningless if not destructive, to various parts of the UK's economy.
8th point - The UK are no longer part of the EU's science programs - this will hinder not improve our ability to develope science and technology.
9th point - You can in the EU have nucleur powere - Brexit benefit that you all ready had is not a brexit benefit - you could of done it anyway.
Does Anyone actually see any Real Tangable Benefits? This report highlights there are no benefits or the benefits are really lame like the colour of the passport or the stamp on a pint glass - the cost to the UK of these BENEFITS is rediculous !!!
I like how, When tasked to find a Brexit benefit, the best they can come up with was the refusal, of a suggestion, on the aesthetic of a document... I mean it's clear it's there for mass and nothing else, a bit like 80% of the bibliography in my first thesis.
benefits, in voting to leave the uk public knew that they were voting to become poorer and did it anyway, the reason for leaving the EU was so we could have our own rules and borders back.
The situation with the EU was like this, heres a load of group rules, some we agree with and some we dont, this is like being at work the same thing applies. Then the EU wants to have the final say over all decisions, that's not a fair system, if like the brexit negotiations one side has an issue you need a neutral point of view for fair mediation. If you were in the same situation at work and you made a complaint and your boss had the final say over all decisions made. you would be stone walled and would leave.
@@johnforbes8282 then why doesn't the Brexit benefit report address what you are saying? why do they proclaim great opportunities outside and try so hard to find good things to say about it even when they are inconsequential?
aren't they trying a bit too hard if everyone supporting brexit was already fine with less EU law?
We are still part of a lot of the EU science programs as they are not controlled by the government but by universities as funding bodies. I’ve been doing work for a lab that just got it’s EU funding renewed.

Interestingly the EU's farming policy was actually adopted by the EU from the UK as a condition to the UK joining the EU in the first place to add to the mess the new policy they want to replace it with is based on the EU's old policy and is actually considered far worse by eavryone involved including the farmers, environmental organisations and the government's advisor's
