You're living ina free nation again - congratulations. Loved Nigel's flag waving at the EU parliament!

[Robin Hood]

We're out!

[John Tavner]

We're out!

Happy New Independence Day to you!

[gkearney]

But if what I am reading is correct not much will change today (01 FEB 2020) in real terms.

[Original_Intent]

We're out!

"Go and sin no more."

We're legally out of the EU and no longer members, as of 11pm on the 31st January. There is now an 11 month transition period during which new trading arrangements will be hammered out etc, which will conclude on the 31st December.
But we are now out!

[mudflap]

Congratulations! Couldn't happen to nicer folks.

Hey! You wanna buy something from us now?

[gkearney]

You need to double down on the Commonwealth and figure out some way to get the US to join it.

[lundbaek]

Surely there will be feathers flying.

Following the formal end of the war for American Independence there was a deportation of many of those who supported the "crown", including some of my ancestors. I would like to suggest that you pack the lot of the anti-Brexiteers over to Belgium before they sabotage your accomplishments.

No.

Judges don't make law....sorry.

Common law is a Trojan Horse.

I'd love it if the US joined the Commonwealth, even as an associate member. It makes so much sense and would be beneficial to all.

I think that's the plan... so long as you buy some of our stuff.

Common law was later inherited by the Commonwealth of Nations, and almost every former colony of the British Empire has adopted it (Malta being an exception). The doctrine of stare decisis, also known as case law or precedent by courts, is the major difference to codified civil law systems. ... Based on English common law.

Commonwealth gives birth to Common Law.
