Opportunities presented by Brexit

Ok, so I voted to remain. However……………….

………a small majority voted to leave and the Government is heading in that direction.

So, what are the opportunities that Brexit offers and, just as importantly, how would we set about securing those opportunities ?

Jacob Rees Mogg was clearly impressed on “Question Time” (Thursday 22^nd Sept 2016 BBC 1) by the well-expressed enthusiasm of a young man who considered that it offered opportunities to engage with the rest of the World, in which many countries are flourishing economically, rather than looking inward towards Europe. (But I didn’t detect any indication from either of these two people as to how we might achieve such an ambition.)

So, what do YOU consider are the opportunities and how might we turn these into a beneficial reality ? I am hoping this will be an optimistic thread !

I just completed (finally) my Dossier pour L'Accès à la Nationalité Française, the last document I needed arrived this morning.
It weighs 1.37kg. On [I suspect good] advice, I also made an exact, page-for-page, duplicate to keep, so that I can direct them to exactly where they might be so kind as to take a second look, just to check, should they inform me that something was 'missing'. As they are wont to do (apparently).
Many trees will die because of Brexit...
Now begins the two year wait, the (up to) four interviews, and the liver-damaging consumption of wine*.

*actually, that began a while ago.

As long as you don't switch to Devialet, no worries.

That's some bundle. Makes my Republic of Ireland application look like no big deal. All the best with it.

Having just returned from Canada (yet again) Mrs D and our Canadian family are pressing me to apply for Permanent Resident status.

I'm giving it a bit more serious thought this time.

GBP is now at $.124, good stuff. So when do we see Naim revise the prices in the US?
Excuse me Peter, old chap........I don't think you fully understand......
........the whole point about Brexit is to make things over here, better for people who voted to leave.
Nothing to do with making things better for people outside the UK, or even for those who voted to remain.
I I thought the European union was established under the principal, those countries that trade together, are less likely to partake in warfare.
World war two!
So correct me if I'm wrong, the major players are anti Brexit.
Theresa May, Merkel, Hillary, and Hollande are anti Brexit, France, US, Germany, and the UK!
The New World Order, not the Gold Standard, not Black Gold ( Oil ), but the American Dollar.
USD/EUR = 1.12
USD/GBP = 1.24
USD/CAN = .75
USD/RUB = .016
USD/CNY = .14
Why the Dollar Is the Global Currency?
Perhaps it's all about Globalization, and the New World Order!
The Age of technology, Google!
Just some rambled thoughts.

Hot off the Press: 5 hours ago!

Theresa May warns Britain, the GDP could loss 4.5% if it leaves the EU customs union.

Ask Yanis Varoufakis, about a timetable for the Brexit, March, I think not.
