Leatash: I agree it has never happened before. That is why the government is (now) making contingency plans in case it all goes **** up and it is making those contingency plans at the behest of those hardline Brexiteers in parliament who want a hard Brexit. As Burneside has correctly pointed out it is a government's responsibility to make contingency plans and act upon them. And as I have ...
So who would be responsible then? eh? Yet another reason why we all need to be told what a no deal Brexit could mean!
Well, actually, as I understand it, there are some facts if we leave without a deal. Like us going on to WTO terms. That means tariffs and delays. So.........from those facts it wouldn't be beyond the dint of those who deal in such things for an impact assessment to be made concerning a no deal scenario. I believe impact assessments are made on any legislation passing through parliament ...
It may not come to pass but I feel pretty certain that I am not the only one in the UK who would like to know what the outcome is likely to be if we should have a no deal Brexit. I've just been watching the Liaison select committee on tv. The PM was asked several times when it would be that the public would be told the consequences of a no deal Brexit but she evaded giving a straight answer. ...
Excuse me? Hello? Where have I mentioned having another referendum? If you read my posts above you will see that I am talking about contingency plans should there be a no deal Brexit scenario. The Brexiteers in parliament are talking about, and pushing for, a no deal Brexit scenario by dint of their pushing for contingency arrangements to be in place. So what we, the public need to ...
From today's Hansard coverage of Prime Minister's Questions. Mr Steve Baker (Wycombe) (Con) It is in the national interest that we should have, and have implemented, contingency plans for the unwanted eventuality of exiting the European Union with nothing agreed. Now there is collective agreement to accelerate the delivery of our plans, will my right hon. Friend please ...
I refer the honorable member to my posting above dated 18th July timed at 13.14. I am not arguing about the result of the referendum. I am putting forward information concerning contingency plans should we leave the EU without a deal. I repeat, it is Brexiteers, not Remainers, who are arguing for these contingency plans because they wish this country to be in a position to walk away from the ...
"if the medicine that some of us rely on now runs out - tough sh1t." Look the mother of a desperately sick child in the eye and say that! oh and btw - this contingency planning (stockpiling) is being pushed by hardline Brexiteers not Remainers. I'll give you an example of this in a couple of hours time when the Hansard coverage of today's Prime Minister's Questions is online.
"I will imagine that measures are already being addressed by the suppliers to keep it going, and that applies to most things we import." Exactly!! Quite!! They are stockpiling in the eventuality of there being a no deal, hard Brexit. Which will mean import tariffs and customs checks leading to increase in costs and increase in delay of supplies. If they just stood back and ...
