according to the Guardian's EU sources there's a fair chance the EU will only agree to a long Article 50 extension until 2021, should an extension be requested by UK Govt.

https://www.theguardian.com/politic...layed-until-2021-eu-sources-reveal?CMP=twt_gu

the Newsnight video and the video posted by @Cowabunga , as well as the independent analysis by @AndrewM, all predicted 2020 as the year when, all things being equal, enough Leave-voting seniors will have passed away and enough Remain-supporting youngsters will reach voting age for the 'will of the people' to have changed.

extending Article 50 to 2021 will put us well into a Remain majority

It will be a very interesting next few weeks

brace, brace. :D
Yes,yes,yes, you keep banging on about this. Many people vote differently through their lives. People get older, wiser and a bit more cynical.

well Project Leave is ultimately doomed. Even if we crash out with No Deal, eventually these youngsters will vote us back in as the Leave ideology literally dies out
Well perhaps if you stop being no negative, and do something to make GB great again, perhaps they won’t. Are you a TFF plant/Wally Mk 2 ?
What are you getting out of all this negativity?:scratchhead:

'Make GB great again'? It is little britain that has been exposed. Backward-looking, pumped-up with false pride. The despicable behaviour in the Chagos islands also now finally exposed and typifying Britain's attitude to 'furren' stuff. And just take a hard look at the politicians 'representing' us - if they were in a TV comedy show we'd think they were exaggerated. pathetic. shameful.

The politicians can`t work it out so leave it to business to do it.
The longer it drags on the more appealing the No Deal option becomes.
March 29th is getting rather close, no extension, no fudging about drop the axe and go No Deal.
See who winces first. :)

Just for info the NHS plans for "No Deal" are concluded.... and were in October 2018.

Game on.... (y)

Perfectly aware of what some businesses have said....others disagree somewhat.

Can you provide an exhaustive list of prominent businesses / business people that have spoken out in favour of Brexit please?

So far we have:
Bloke that runs JCB
Bloke from Fraggle Rock that runs some pubs
Bloke that's f**ked off to Singapore to make diesel-powered hand dryers or whatever it is
and that's all that come to mind but I'm sure there must be a few others

and then we'll compare that with the list of businesses that have spoken out against Brexit or who have already taken their business or part of their assets out of Blighty

thanks
