    It is now common knowledge that the reason Johnson didn't lift his ban on travel to and from India (which was imposed immediately on Pakistan and Bangladesh) was so he could go over there and wave his little fucking flags around, celebrating a trade deal that was nothing more than the deal we previously had while being in the EU, while 20,000 people flew back here from India? Okay.

              Absolute spiffyvoiced bellend (who might be the Brexit minister this week) on Radio 5 just now trumpeting a trade deal with Iceland, Norway and Liechtenstein that apparently has protected billions of pounds worth of trade in pork, prawns and leeks.

              Fucking infuriating listening to this shite.

                I thought that it had already been posted but the Chief Brexit Prick in charge of Wetherspoons, who looks like a melted Lion-O figure, was pushing for a special EU citizen visa to allow them to come work behind his bars for shitty wages.

                Comment


                  Yes I saw that earlier in the week too. The best responses were the ones telling him he should pay better wages instead of importing cheap labour.

                  It would be a real shame if his empire crumbled, the twunt.

                    He also very much wants to have the threat of visa revocation and deportation to hold over the heads of staff who aren't as passively compliant as he would like.

                      In a move that is going to bend the mind of Leave voters, the UK is to ban the sale of remaining halogen light bulbs.

                          Something the rest of Ireland have been telling the Unionist community for 100 years.

                                I saw on Twitter that it works out as "up to a £1.22 saving for everyone". As in one pound, twenty two pence. I'm sure I'm not the only person who thinks they shouldn't have fucking bothered. Meanwhile the farmers are saying they'll be ruined by this.

                                  I guess that they shouldn't have voted it for it then.

                                  Isn't it funny that you couldn't move for vox pops from the fishing and farming industries during the campaign and now they are taking the brunt of it, a cameraman is nowhere to be found. Ever get the feeling that you've been cheated?

                                    Aye, and for the first 95 of those years they were wrong. The change is that broad indifference (which Unionists were satisfied
                                    with) has been replaced by hostility (Irish Sea border, disrupted delivery to M&S etc)

                                      youd have thought a party still dominated by landowners with country estates would want to subsidise their own

                                      but they love capital more

                                        I have heard a few people on the radio and the BBC briefly were talking to people who said they voted Leave and felt cheated. But more recently they are following the government propaganda line.

                                          British food and drink exports to the EU fell by £2bn in the first three months of 2021, with sales of dairy products plummeting by 90%, according to an analysis of HMRC data.

                                          Brexit checks, stockpiling and Covid have been blamed for much of the downturn, but the sector has said the figures show structural rather than teething problems with the UK’s departure from the EU.

                                            despite the best efforts of the Times Telegraph Mail Express BBC and Keir Starmer this isn't going away

                                              Five years since the referendum

                                              what a fucking mess we’re in.

                                              The far right in charge with still no plan for post Brexit existence except to become even further right To consolidate their grip on the law , control the media that didn’t put them there, do all they can to avoid scrutiny and make the country even more corrupt.

                                              Arch remainer Starmer is head of the Labour Party But now pretends he has no view on Brexit.

                                                Don’t forget the loudest voices complaining against the situation doing the most to prevent it from being fixed.
