  2. ​ @maciej9280  "eu subsidies for farmers are ending as well" You mean "eu subsidies for British farmers are ending as well". The EU takes food security very seriously, as it understands that being dependent on third nations for food means they have you very much by the balls. Any society will collapse within weeks when there are serious food shortages. Which is one reason why this Brexit experiment will end very badly indeed.

  3. I grew up in a badly insulated home. I had ice crystals on the inside of my windows of my bedroom. The only thing I regretted was my fingers being too numb to write for my home work. But then, our bottom floor where we spent most of our time was nice & comfortable, and had plenty of hot water. That is what these morons with their tall tales forget. There is a huge difference between sleeping in a cold room with a hot water bottle at your feet, and living in an unheated house, all the time. Trust me, I know. I visited our unheated holiday home in November for repairs, but did not last a full week where we had planned two. The cold just drains the life out of you if you have no way of getting warm. Which is why Fire was such an important invention for human kind. Humans just can't live at our latitudes without fire.

  6. Wars never solve anything. It is the diplomacy and other civic actions after a war that permanently change things. The allies never had a civic plan for Afghanistan, so this was inevitable.

  7. The idea that Starmer can not attack the government on Brexit handling when he agreed with a deal is absolutely false. Starmer and Johnson are not on the same footing during PMQ. Johnson is there to explain his handling of Brexit to Parliament, and Starmer has both the right and the duty to attack him on anything the government does wrong. Parliament is sovereign, not the PM.

  9. Brexit was ever only about dodging taxes and whitewashing money. But I never thought the Tories would be greedy enough to actually go ahead with this national suicide. But it is too late now, England will see much worse than this before they come to their senses.

  10. ​ @namesurname2958  "harmed the uk" No kidding! Bar any totalitarian 17th century-style suppression wars, it will break it apart with only Wales staying with England. If England is lucky.

  11.  Theomen Thorne  "whether people agree or not" While I believe you things will turn out as you say, the UK must realise that the EU owes you nothing at all. England will need to better its life (i.e. political system and media) and ask VERY nicely and politely before you have a shadow of a chance of rejoining. Don't forget that your media and your politicians are continuously insulting the EU, and deeply as well. That will not be forgotten for quite some time. You have certainly lost all goodwill you had from the past you played in ww2.

  12.  @peterebel7899  There is currently not a large group of people that might be tempted by higher wages. And it takes time to train them. And the companies need time to raise their prices so they can pay those higher wages. What makes Brexit the train wreck it now is, is the suddenness with which it was introduced. No-one knew the details until a single week before B-day.

  13. A vital computer system is off-line for a week? That is gross incompetence. GROSS incompetence. Bar perhaps an infiltration with ransomware there is not a single thing that could not be fixed in a day or so, if the will to act is there. Most any system can be rebuilt from scratch in that time. So several things must have gone wrong, including inadequate backups. Which is a sacking offense in this business, and cause for massive fines or even to terminate the contract. But I guess the contract has been award to a firm Tory supporter, a pal of a minister somewhere, so he gets to rip-off the public overcharging for a bad service. Probably self-hosts everything at a "very secure location" -- as if regular hosting providers know nothing of security. They'll probably even be more secure than this farce. And then he skimped on the standard redundancies expected for a professional hosting site, like duplicate power and telecom connections entering the site at different points. And unwilling to spend the money to solve the issue quickly, because the SLA is either weak or he knows it will not be enforced. That is what you get for Tory corruption & incompetence.

  17. They will. In 2014 (or was it 2015?) the EU will require financial services pertaining to the Euro to be located inside the EU, so that the EU can monitor and investigate them according to their strict rules, and so that the ECB can underpin the transactions. That will leave the UK economy absolutely gutted. They have given the affected companies a good period to make the necessary arrangements, then the hatchet will fall.

  19. There are so many reasons why exports are important. As the UK is dependent on other countries for its food, it needs to import. But in order to pay for imports, you need to export. Otherwise your currency will crash. That is why the trade balance is important. Currently the Tories are masking the problems with the trade balance by increasing the interest rate. That has a finite effect. When you stop increasing the interest, that effect will end, and devaluation will continue its normal trajectory. This is the reason the BoE interest rate is fully double that of the ECB. House owners with mortgages and businesses pay the price for temporarily propping up the GBP. They must be happy, having voted Tory, and knowing their sacrifice will ultimately be in vain.

  20.  @MegaNewriver  Eurosceptic trash has been predicting the demise of the EU every year for decades. So far, the EU has been far more democratic than both the UK and the US.

  21. ​ @justmythought7658  LOL. You wanna go back to snail mail and corded phones? Loosing the internet would hit the global economy hard for the same reason Brexit hits the UK economy hard. The world has changed since 1990.

  22. Well, UK businesses are screwed then. Having to compete against outside companies that can produce and export cheaper and flood the UK market is not easy. But as the clown said, "F-business". Looks like that is a promise he is keeping.

  23. About the growth for the UK being expected to be the biggest in the G7, I don't know on what data these forecasts are based, but I find this extremely suspect, knowing that both UK export and UK services have taken terrible hits as a result of Brexit, and that these are expected to suffer further this year. Last year the HMRC also warned of lower tax revenues. I guess the UK government is very slow in accounting for the year 2021, and that in the mean time old data is being used.

  29. That is like celebrating today because rations were raised to 17 grams, when yesterday they were raised to 20 grams. Or like the general yesterday celebrating decisive victories 100 miles from the capital, and today celebrating the route of the enemy 50 miles from the capital, and tomorrow celebrating total victory 10 miles from the capital. Sadly, there is not much the Public can do.

  32. The UK Sheeple have no idea that this is going on. Their PM leads the way in clapping for the NHS. But what he does in policies is a different thing altogether. The main problem in the UK is that there is no scrutiny of government by the media, and the sheeple don't care about that.

  33. "This calls for a severe punishment" Not until they actually do something. You may hear some comments from the EU like "I hope Johnson realises the consequences of uni-laterally breaking the good friday agreement treaty".

  34. Which is why you need good laws protecting food quality, labor rights and the minimum wage. Brexit has been the excuse to get rid of them. The food production industry will suffer greatly from brexit.

  35.  @vesatuomassihvonen1316  "has grown up" You know the three stages of development: Dependence, independence, inter-dependence? Brexit was a huge step backwards on this scale, from inter-dependence to independence. From adulthood back into puberty.

  36.  @olmostgudinaf8100  Brexit was always going to destroy the UK trade balance, both for goods and services. The Gammons don't understand what that will do to an economy. Probably think that printing more money will solve it. That is what you get when you trust leaders that say they have had enough of experts.

  38. This all is very revealing. The Tories, Brexit and Russia are so closely linked that they are unwilling to join the rest of the free will to put Putin in his place. If it turns out Brexit was conceived to help Putin weaken the EU, Bozo and the Tories have committed Treason. I have no hope in the legal system dealing with this, but I hope the UK public is paying attention.

  39. In the mean time, the UK University of Hard Knocks is offering classes. Remember, the classes are not optional: they need to retake them until they pass.

  40. Conclusion: the DUP should have supported May's deal. The backstop would have prevented the divergence between N.I. and GB!

  41. It is MUCH easier for EU companies to find alternative sources of UK products, e.g. from the Republic of Ireland. Therefore, EU companies can charge UK buyers for the extra costs involved, whereas UK companies can not charge EU buyers extra.

  46. It shows how corrupt the UK media have become. They time the release of these red herrings to coincide exactly with nefarious steps by the government. They held this story for almost a year, to be released just when the government was undoing the Magna Carta.

  47. ​ @andygass9096  "court of public opinion" Not true. During PMQs, Parliament is the Court. In most democracies, Bozo would have been fired right after this shameful display. I have NEVER seen the likes of it in my country, for example, and I have seen ministers sent off for far less.

  49. Not all taxes are going up. Some are going down. But most Britons will not benefit from that, only Shoesnake and his mates. But HMRC warned already last year that tax income was going down due to Brexit.
