Current Affairs EU In or Out

[Bruce Wayne]

Wow. All sounds scary that.

I'm sure your day-to-day life has been significantly hindered by the result of the referendum all these years later.

It's also going to get much worse apparently mate so strap yourself in.

Well firstly, we haven't technically left until January 1st, so I'll hold off on the bunting with regards to any tangible effects. Secondly, this is a bit like YoboKnbFace saying he hasn't been personally affected by COVID therefore it must all be made up flimflam.

It really isn't though is it?

And that technicality didn't stop all the blame being attached to the uncertainty of Brexit in the past few years.

Factory closing? Brexit
Prices up? Brexit
Food smaller? Brexit
Sciatica playing up? Brexit.

Or 'the truck you told me was going to hit me last year, turned out to be a snail'

If a company says 'uncertainty around Brexit and the UKs future relationship with the EU' is the cause for them closing a factory, not investing in the UK or moving headquarters is that Brexit related or not?

and it was going the other way.....

I said it was a truck, you said it was iced bun.

Turns out you've just been hit in the face by a snail. I'd rather not be hit at all.

What do we do at times like this Pete?

'We shall see........'

You do realise don’t you that companies and the CEO’s and Boards are there to maximise profits. So if you are running company A and your numbers are not looking too good, what is the easiest excuse that will be lapped up by the city and investors ? What is a way to exert pressure upon the government for additional grants, tax relief, etc etc. Well hello to Mr Brexit.....

Until the final whistle blows no one knows the result. I keep saying wait and see because there Is still a bit of play to go. You seem to believe the game is already over...in fact you believe the game was won by the EU before the match was even arranged.....

I hadn't realised this Pete, thanks for opening my eyes to it.

How many have moved to the UK specifically to capitalise on Brexit?

In English not cliche please.

If the cost of housing fell 50% overnight, I'd be glad.

I wish we could have had a referendum on this, instead.

And if it all does not quite pan out as Boris / Gove / Farage predicted; well, there’s always good old Covid.
