2 Year Reboot after Brexit Fails

Theresa May tries to reboot Brexit, offers 2-year transition period

FLORENCE, ITALY—Britain is prepared to abide by European Union rules and pay into the bloc’s coffers for two years after leaving the EU in March 2019, Prime Minister Theresa May said Friday in a conciliatory speech intended to revive foundering exit talks.

The proposal got a positive, if muted, reception from the EU’s chief negotiator. But it raised hackles among pro-Brexit U.K. politicians, who accused May of delaying a divorce that is sought by a majority of British voters.

May travelled to Florence, Italy — birthplace of the Renaissance — in hopes of rebooting negotiations with the EU that have stalled over issues including the price the U.K. must pay to leave and the rights of EU citizens in Britain.

May’s speech was intended to kick-start the process before talks resume next week in Brussels. But while it was strong on praise for the EU and for shared European values, the few concrete details were far from addressing Brussels’ concerns.

Brussel's concerns?

Who cares what the communistnazis are concerned about - the only thing they care about is their own swiss bank accounts, and staying out of jail.

Florence, eh?

If Brexiteers need a real reason to leave the EU, then just look at Italy

One reason why Junkhead needs the other EU members to join the Euro.
They are going to need a lot of money in the future.
And not just the Wops.

2 Year Reboot after Brexit Fails

Brexit hasn't happened yet.

As for the two year transition period of Britain being half in and half out - I'm sure I speak for most Britons when I say: "Bring it on." We're prepared to wait just an extra two years until we fully regain our independence and sovereignty. Most hardcore Remainers would have been hoping that May would announce an eternal period of being half in and half out during her Florence speech so that we are never fully out, so they are going to be sorely disappointed now that the Prime Minister has put a time limit on such a transition.

Don't mind Flossie. The subtleties of geo-politics is just another subject that sails over his tiny little pinhead.

The Remainers are a funny lot.

On the one hand that like to blame bad economic news on Brexit - or say silly things like "Brexit has been a disaster so far" - and on the other hand they respond to good economic news with "But Brexit hasn't happened yet."

They're a confused bunch.
