I already answered you to that but you are not listening.
No it won't!! Without a deal It will be treated like a 3rd country from day one.


That's not true. Under WTO terms, there is provision for Britain and the EU to trade for a minimum of 2 years under the current terms after BREXIT and the EU can keep extending these arrangements to up to 10 years until they pen a Free Trade Deal. Eventually, within the 10 year period, Britain will have the same terms as Norway and Switzerland which are not EU members. These terms that Norway and Switzerland have are pretty much the same exactly trade terms as any other EU state. The EU can't and will not differentiate between Britain and Norway/Switzerland.

The idea that trade can not continue under the current terms is just fear mongering.

the same is occurring with EU citizens that live in the UK right now. Fear mongers are saying they won't be able to stay, and they are also saying EU citizens will not be allowed to stay permanently in the UK. That isn't true at all. Those already in the UK can stay and EU citizens wanting to migrate to the UK will have to follow a process of application.

My understanding is that Britain wants to introduce the Australian points model of migration. In other words, migrants apply to come if they meet certain criteria. And this is the types of things Britain can do outside of the EU. The EU will not be able to dictate who can come and who can stay in the EU. And I am sorry to stay but The Australian immigration System is the best in world. Way better than the EU. It is a system that ensures that Australia prospers by bringing in people who will contribute to our society as qualified professionals or if they are wealthy. Yes you can legitimately buy yourself a spot too. Especially of you are a tycoon and wanting to set up enterprises and so on.

There is a lot of fear mongering pyro and it is very misleading.

Give me just one link confirming your claim. I can give you hundreds that it's not so.
Here's one:
https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-45112872
Under WTO rules, after Brexit, cars would be taxed at 10% when they crossed the UK-EU border. And agricultural tariffs would be significantly higher, rising to an average of more than 35% for dairy products.

And another directly from the UK Gov.

https://www.gov.uk/government/publicati ... l-scenario

A no deal scenario is one where the UK leaves the EU and becomes a third country at 11pm GMT on 31 October 2019 without a Withdrawal Agreement and framework for a future relationship in place between the UK and the EU.

I'm surprised that so few have thus sussed The General out !!
He makes his views available as if those views are real and not imaginary.
He tells the forum that he is a pilot. The closest he got to being a pilot was in his wild dreams. He tried to be but was rejected on the grounds of being utterly stupid.
Apparently he now knows a lot more of the UK and the British or rather the English than anyone else. He is a fucking idiot and I wish he would stop posting the crap that he does. .I would politely tell him to fuck off this Cyprus forum after all he doesn't think much of Cyprus.

Pyro,

BBC is not a credible source when it comes to BREXIT. I live in Australia and let me explain how the MSM media works in Australia, Britain and USA. Legacy news sources like the BBC, Channel 4 and CNN are agenda driven against BREXIT.

There have been links posted here by Cyprusgrump which explain the WTO terms. It clearly stipulates that even under a no deal, the EU and Britain will still trade under the present conditions.

There is a lot of BREXIT derangement syndrome and much hysteria and a very organized scare campaign. You need to watch where you get your information from. Just because it comes from the BBC doesn’t mean it is true.

Plus you got to think about this very rationally and logically. There are Billions at stake here and the EU are not going to risk a recession by creating adverse trade conditions with the 5th largest economy.

Britain will trade with the EU like it does now. People will still come and go and the sky will not fall in.

There is also a link I provided from British Lawyers that debunk all the mistruths. I don’t have time to find you the links you need right now, but just look at what I and Cyprusgrump posted as well as Londonrake.

A framework is not needed for trade to continue as is and the EU can keep extending out for another 10 years. They have already stated that trade will remain as is till 2021 if Brexit occurs in October to allow time for a FTD to be negotiated.

It's not that you don't have the time to find the links Paphitis.
There aren't any.
Most probably you misunderstood what you read from CG's links as for example this one

here is another link for you. WTO Article 24 stipulates that the EU and Britain can continue to trade under the current terms with zero tariffs for a period of 2 years subject to their approval.

This allows minimization to any disruption and allows all parties the time to be able to negotiate a FTD.

there are already a num,ber of countries that trade with the EU under these terms.

https://brexitcentral.com/managed-no-de ... fs-quotas/

both sides would be permitted under WTO rules to continue with the present zero tariff/zero quota trading arrangements. There would be no disruption to the man or woman on the high street. No Deal would mean No Change, as the cost of goods would not go up.

That's wishful thinking from dreamers Paphitis based on WTO procedures that apply when 2 parties want to establish or join a free trade area.
in that case it's quite logical to have an interim period from 2-10 years of zero or lower tariffs (as is the case of every country that applies to join the EU.
What makes you think the EU will even want to establish a free trade area with Britain after it leaves ??
No way mate.. sorry.
