This is the future the youngsters think we stole from them?
They should be on their knees thanking us for saving them from being turned into Orwellian Serfs!
Note: If Brexit is cancelled then A50 is withdrawn - but no new treaties or changes. That means the legal status quo: ie no Euro nor Scheghen. THAT IS TRUE UP UNTIL March 29, 2019!! After that date UK has legally left EU, & cancelling A50 is no longer possible. Also those 1/2
opt-outs vanish as the treaties no longer apply. If Brexit were reversed after 29/3/2019 it would be some re-admitance process which would without a doubt involve joining Euro & adopting Shengan.
and add 2 this.. EU deal tries 2reassure non-euro countries like UK that they won’t be ganged up on by eurozone countries, There will be a system for non-euro countries 2object 2laws being passed that might harm them, but it WON'T give us a LEGAL OPT-OUT. https://fullfact.org/europe/explaining-eu-deal-uk-and-eurozone/

All EU members which have joined the bloc since the signing of the Maastricht treaty in 1992 are legally obliged to adopt the euro once they meet the criteria, since the terms of their accession treaties make the provisions on the euro binding on them.
If we leave on WA then all treaties stop. May has not got a legal opt out for us joining the Euro or Schengan and bear in mind this is just an agreement (not legal treaty) PRIOR to us negotiating,( no doubt for next 2 years), a trade agreement. 1/2
& remember this-EU deal tries 2reassure non-euro countries like UK that they won’t be ganged up on by eurozone countries. There will be a system 4 non-euro countries 2object 2laws being passed that might harm them, but it WON'T give them a LEGAL OPT-OUT.

'Because of the inflexibility inherent in the unanimity requirement, the 2009 Lisbon Treaty provided for the possibility to introduce voting by Qualified Majority for measures under the CFSP without the need for another formal Treaty amendment. 1/3
This so-called ‘passerelle’ clause62 is contained in Article 31(3) of the Treaty on European Union. It allows the European Council, that is to say, EU’s Heads of State & Government, to unanimously adopt a legal decision extending the use of QMV to other areas of the CFSP. 2/3
However, the passerelle cannot be used to remove the unanimity rule for any “decisions having MILITARY or DEFENCE implications”. 3/3

And now it comes to light that ALL treaties stop 2years from notification WITH OR WITHOUT an agreement, consequently, we WILL lose our rebate and have to join Schengan and the Euro if we stay in the EU in any way shape or form!! https://twitter.com/Nigel_Farage/status/1084463591779123200
