    [QUOTE=Monty92;4166468]Hard Brexit means leaving the EU. Leaving the EU means leaving the single market, customs union and ending freedom of movement.

    Soft Brexit means not leaving the EU by not doing any of the above.



    How can not leaving the EU be considered to be any kind of exit??

    Glad it wasn't just me that noticed that.

    Monty really should stick to not understanding football.

    You're both being silly. The scenario I was referring to was one in which we nominally left the EU but retained all of the substantive ties that come with being a member.

    No, you simply do not understand the difference between hard Brexit and soft Brexit. Mostly because you don't understand what soft Brexit is, I'm afraid.

    Largely because it doesn't mean anything. Or more accurately, there is no real agreement as to what it means or how the term is used responsibly.

    Brexit means Brexit is still the most sensible statement was have on the subject, which is quite terrifying

    And yet 17mil people voted for it. Astonishing.

    However you wish to pretend otherwise, what was voted for was remarkably simple. The vote unequivocally represented a rejection of this country's membership of and current relationship with the EU. It said clearly that a majority no longer wish to be part of the organisation and - insofar as possible with regard to a future trading relationship - no longer wish to pay for its upkeep or be subject to its laws and regulations.

    Now are those things simple to achieve? No. But that is what was voted for.

    So, leave and remain. That seems fair, pretty much everyone voted for at least half of that.

    Could everyone kindly take care to edit out the erroneous quote tag to ensure accurate attribution!
