GOD SAYS BREXIT WILL TAKE YEARS AND YEARS AND MAY NEVER HAPPEN

Gus O'Donnel, also known as god says in the FT that Brexit will take years and years (HERE) to finally extricate ourselves from the EU and by the time it happens they may have arrived at a looser arrangement that the UK is happy with and we may decide not to leave anyway.

He suggests we will probably leave most EU based laws the same so joining would be relatively straightforward.

Another article that I read this week suggested it may not be until 2035 that we actually have a finished agreement and all the dust has settled so Mr O'Donnel may well be right.

The BBC has also run a piece (HERE) trying to explain how difficult Brexit is going to be and using as a basis for the story an article from the Centre for European Reform that this blog covered a couple of weeks ago (HERE).
