It takes two years, not shorter, not longer. Wrong. It takes shorter if both sides agree that they've got an agreement and want it to go into effect earlier. It takes longer if both sides agree to an extension. It takes exactly two years if, and only if, neither of those happen. |

The whole point of Brexit is that a lot of us DO care about being British, to the extent that we would really like to govern ourselves again, rather than be ruled by a foreign power. Can you imagine the United States being told what to do by an American Union based in Guatemala? Actually, the correct analogy is Georgians/Carolinans/Virginians/Alabamans complaining about being told what to do by a load of leftie liberals in Washington DC. Look what happened when they tried to exit. |
