Anyway, we’re going to have to stay in the EU because apparently we won’t have the ingredients for a BLT sandwich....

The humble BLT sandwich could be put at risk by a no deal Brexit, an industry boss has suggested, prompting mockery from Eurosceptics.
Jim Winship, the director of the British Sandwich Association, said leaving the European Union without a trade deal could lead to shortages of lettuce and tomatoes.
Mr Winship said a no deal withdrawal would likely “limit the amount of choice that consumers have” when they are buying their lunch.
But the comments were labelled “scaremongering” by Brexiteers.
Asked about the potential impact of a no deal Brexit on sandwiches, Mr Winship told the BBC’s Newsnight programme: “I don’t think it means absolutely no sandwiches because our industry is very creative and clever at coming up with new recipes.

Looks like a bonus for our cheesemakers......as they said in the Life of Brian “blessed are the cheesemakers”......

In the sense that everything nowadays is 'soundbites', yes.

But he was no worse than the Remain side, with Carney's doom and gloom prediction, and the then Chancellor saying he would impose a swingeing budget if the vote was to leave.

How about some balance for once, ffs. Or is that not within the ambit of Remainers thinking...?

I could be wrong here, but I didn’t see any prominent remainers stood in front of racist posters designed to play on unfounded Malthusian fears. They just said the economy would tank. The two are incomparable.

They stated that property prices would fall...
A increased figure plucked out of the sky for every household in the U.K....
An emergency budget of austerity...
Mass unemployment....
The city jobs would abdicate abroad .....
Trade would be impacted
Investment would decline.....
Our economy GDP would fall to zero....
We would be on a cliff edge....
That was the day after if we dared to vote Out...
Project fear mostly all incorrect .....
How can you trust remainers who at high level need the EU for their perks .......
The blarites, the rich, the top civil servants who will lose jollies to Brussels.....
Or lose their finger in the EU pie..........
Snouts in the trough more like....
Mandeleson bent as a corkscrew......dodgy loans job in the EU as a failing MP cheeky Bsd......

In the interests of balance. All of that could happen, or some of them will, or none of them will.

I reckon 4 are likely to see an effect. Question is how much.
