Oh no!! Brexit not going quite as well as hoped

[mudsticks]

Looking at the shelves in the supermarket today I realised that, as someone who is reasonably well off, the shortages are not going to affect me that much other than inconvenience, but for people who are not so lucky it may mean that alternatives are going to be more expensive.

Likewise.

I have a farm full of fresh produce.
To eat, and to sell, and to give away also if I want to.

But some people, seem to think we should just stop giving a feck about anyone elses situation .

Is this how were supposed to do community and society now.??

 

[lazybloke]

Stop f***ing moaning then!

Poor people have always found enough $hit to eat to make them fat, they won't struggle now.

And it won't, so more virtue signalling.

You're signalling your own "virtue" loud and clear

Whichever political side people are on, I think it's time that we as a country took a look at ourselves

This from another thread suggests there may eventually be one hard won, long overdue, positive outcome of Brexit. Paradoxically, the xenophobic viciousness of our retreat from reality into comforting WWII mythology calls into question the very fantasy to which we're retreating. We may have to concede that the Nazi project garnered support in all strata of British society, from the East End to the House of Windsor, and was merely a continuation in the European theatre of the eugenicism, genocide and rapacious land grab that characterised the British empire.
Had the Nazis only thought to enact their Lebensraum policy over the horizon in lands occupied by darker skinned coves who would've objected?

Not by me, and you can't know what the impact will be on him.

Despair.
The number of times I have overheard words along the lines of 'We voted for Brexit but this wasn't what we voted for', my tongue is raw from having to bite it so often....

You seem to hear that all the time: "THIS ISN'T THE BREXIT I VOTED FOR!!!"

Funny, because it's precisely the Brexit I voted against.

I shall use this riposte!

Funnily enough.

All us anti brexit* farmer types, predicted all these 'unexpected consequences' too.

*And yes despite so much reporting to the contrary, there were and still are many of us.

Never heard it once off people I actually speak to, uncanny that?

As a in independence supporter and a depressed pragmatist, I'm bleakly confident that's an entirely theoretical question. The only circumstances under which Scotland will be allowed another independence referendum would be if there was a guaranteed 'no' result, or with conditions (such as a requirement for 66% or more 'yes' vote) that would make it unwinnable, even if the Scottish Government were to agree to such terms. Which they wouldn't.

More realistically, Johnson, or whichever soulless Tory horror succeeds him, will just keep saying "no". Forever.

You could get a 66% overall vote, just let the English vote in the referendum too. That should see you easily over the line.

I'm sure you've mentioned that you only ever associate with people who hold exactly the same views that you do. And you seem to absolutely love everything about the Vote Leave/Johnson implementation of Brexit. Uncanny, that.

You could get a 66% overall vote, just let the English vote in the referendum too. That should see you easily over the line.

It's actually an interesting proposal, and not without merit. Because then, what you'd see is this Tory government being forced to be somewhat more candid about precisely why it's so frantically desperate not to let useless, moneypit, subsidy-junkie Scotland go. That would be an eye opener, for some of us.

Hardly surprising really.

You've told us in another thread, that as soon as someone says anything with which you disagree, you switch off and ignore them.

So it's no great revelation, nor uncanny to any of us, that you've only heard positivity over brexit, in your circle.

But you don’t speak to anyone who has a differing opinion to you so, how do you know?
