A Quote by Jose Angel Gurria

There is no upside for the U.K. in Brexit. Only costs that can be avoided and advantages to be seized by remaining in Europe. No one should have to pay the Brexit tax. — © Jose Angel Gurria
There is no upside for the U.K. in Brexit. Only costs that can be avoided and advantages to be seized by remaining in Europe. No one should have to pay the Brexit tax.
The people should make the final decision on Brexit when they see the government's Brexit deal.
The Conservatives as a Brexit party, being very clear about their objectives are almost certainly going to have to go into some kind of electoral arrangement with the Brexit Party, otherwise Brexit doesn't happen.
The truth is the Tories don't own Brexit. No party owns Brexit and that includes the Brexit Party.
I accept of course we're in deep trouble and deep difficulty. But if we, under a new leader, reinvent ourselves properly as a Brexit party, we will be faced with the inevitability at some point of a general election in order to deliver Brexit because this Parliament is stopping the delivery of Brexit.
Actually, Brexit is an incredibly important issue, but it's not the only issue. And to be a credible party of Government you need to have plans for everything, not just for the delivery of Brexit.
Of course, the UK is a significant economy that makes up a quarter of American exports to the EU, more than 50 percent of our exports in certain sectors and over 25 percent of the government procurement opportunities we have in Europe. Brexit reduces the size of the TTIP deal for the United States, and there will need to be an adjustment of expectations accordingly, but Brexit underscores the value of reaching an agreement at this critical moment in the evolution of Europe.
Brexit is not only not just about left and right. Brexit is about expertise.
Austerity and Brexit are two sides of the same coin, like the Brexit party and the Tories.
I believe that Theresa May is going to end up with a botched Brexit that will satisfy no one and make sure that calls for a people's vote on the final Brexit deal will only get louder.
The first job of the Brexit Party is to make sure Brexit's delivered and if that involves electoral pacts, that might happen.
Brexit means Brexit.The public made their verdict.
My position was that if the country could unite around a soft Brexit that would be the least worst way through. But it is now very clear that the country is not going to unite around a soft Brexit. There is nobody really advocating a soft Brexit.
Of course Brexit means that something is wrong in Europe. But Brexit means also that something was wrong in Britain.
The public wants to know that their political leaders will stay true to the promise made to them that Brexit means Brexit.
The issue for me is not just Brexit. It is beyond Brexit - how you conduct politics and the veering towards populism and English nationalism.
I think we've got caught up in the weeds of Brexit, and... the approach has been to try and compromise and split the difference. And that to me is not what Brexit is about.
