London will eventually rejoin or a deal will be cut so that we can continue practically unchanged. This city is hugely successful largely thanks of its membership of the EU. Londoners won't stand for their city taking a hit because a bunch of Little Englanders don't like Johnny foreigner.

Right, so you dont live in the capital?

Why are you getting involved then, it's not your home, you're an EU citizen now and i hope they keep you.

Good idea. Place a Brexit charge on any little quitler trying to enter the M25 and see how they survive without the tax take from the city.

Will take years to play out but the break up of the UK as a result of Brexit looks inevitable.
Are you ill?
Don't know about ill, but a rewire might be wise...hehe

Somebody tell him how well London did before the EU existed, before he busts a blood vessel.

Jeez, how do some people cope with breathing?

Yeah, a deal will be cut, now you're starting to get it.

Or maybe it won't. Ho hum.

London , being a city in the UK, is in Europe. The UK is currently still in the EU, but will be out of the EU in a couple of years. London will still be in Europe, but won't be in the EU.

Which bit don't you understand?

What are you talking about? How does that equal "right, so you don't live in the capital?"

I read the whole article expecting a punch line. I still can't work out if Lammy was actually having a pop at Sturgeon and telling her to STFU or if he's serious.

If the latter, he is utterly mental. More so than Sturgeon which I doubted possible. And there's me thinking it was meant to Brexiteers/Ultras/Leave voters that were meant to be the divisive ones...

The movement is growing. A Theresa May negotiation balls up will see it happen within the next 15-20 years.
