But they are the informed opinions of recognised economic experts and leaders of major industries and financial institutions plus the TUC

He who pays for the ink decides what words and figures it is used to write

Very cynical and patently untrue in this instance

Real, as in a misogynist, racist, foot-in-the-mouth, incompetent, verbose fool. Yes, let's get him in.

Well the American did

I work in Government, as does my partner and all of my best friends in London.

We are in no way, shape or form prepared for No Deal. It will be catastrophic.

My son works for the financial arm of the post office in London
They are literally crapping themselves

Indeed. The UK, for so long the country of tolerance, humour, and a welcome, basically isnt.

I think it ended with the hostile environment.

You may not get within 20 miles of the port if there’s a no deal

Not heading to the port, going to the Battle of Britain Museum at Hawkinge. But still rather too close...

Xmas could yet be cancelled due to a lack of food and suitable presents

The above instantly called to mind this:


Alan Rickman was superb all through this film.

But I heard a lad being interviewed last week and he said when Britain leaves the EU they will be able to put the Great back into Great Britain

What amazed me was not the statement but the fact that he actually believed it

This is the heartbreaking part, do people really think their lives are suddenly going to be much better free from the big, bad and nasty EU? They're pinning all their hopes on our politicians sorting everything out after brexit, are they remotely aware that these are the same inept people that are currently in a state of paralysis over what is good for this country.

So, as I see it now, MPs are coming back tomorrow to vote a "new" (ish) version of the May deal. Which is now pretty much a starting point only. Large parts of it would have been in a Labour plan, apparently.

But. LP have already said they will vote against it. The DUP havnt said so, but they will, and enough ERG loons have said they wont support it neither.

So, what is the effin point?

Complying with the terms of the extension the EU gave them

Another staging post in the seemingly now inevitable road to a proper referendum on Brexit or / and a General Election.

Surely brexit is good for fisherman is it not?? Not having to hand British waters over

And who will buy all the British fish
Certainly not the British People if the last 30 yrs are anything to go by

Indeed. The UK, for so long the country of tolerance, humour, and a welcome, basically isnt.

I can remember that in the 1960s and 1970s people used to laugh at countries like Italy with their unstable governments, with a new Prime Minister every year. Portugal, Spain, Greece and the Iron Curtain countries were dictatorships. Whatever the faults and weaknesses of British governments of the sixties, seventies and eighties, there was stability at least. Now we're the laughing stock of Europe.

You could still go and crack that nobhead whos always mouthing off outside the HOC

Even at this age and mellow in comparison to my younger days , I really couldn't walk past him without giving him a boot up the arse the baffoon.
Gets me going that fella, should have some manners and shut up when people are speaking.

I think big sections of the UK are so fed up with the current situation that they don't think things will get much worse than they already are.

Others have drunk the Kool Aid peddled by liars, fraudsters and idiots like Daniel Hannan https://reaction.life/britain-looks-like-brexit/

Either way both are completely wrong.
