The Last Ever Brexit Thread

[Brotherton Lad]

Got any more mates that were hoofed out of the Conservative party because they tried to stop the main reason they were elected?
Can I have a buttered brown roll with my soup please, waiter.

You still think I serve soup?

You still think I serve soup?

Oh dear. Have you been demoted?

There are still some who think rubbing Alladin's lamp will get us back in the EU.

Alladin's all in favour of it...

They’ll have to run a lot harder. Recent polling showed that only 30% of the electorate would vote to rejoin the EU.

Hello.. we still haven't left.

Matt Lucas becomes a German citizen after branding Brexit 'pointless'

Great British Bake Off presenter Matt Lucas has declared he is now a German citizen and has secured dual nationality after he branded Brexit 'pointless and masochistic'.

Here's an idea, Matt. Show how committed you are to the EU and your adopted country by relocating and relinquishing your British nationality, otherwise people might start to think that it's complete posturing and an entirely empty gesture.

He has not returned his British passport - a much sought after document in the rest of the world?

He’ll be broadcasting from Radio Bremen next.

Jairmany calling, Jairmany calling.

He'd first need to visit Germany, at least occasionally.

 

[Bodenplatte]

No matter how hard he tries to fit in unobtrusively in Germany, he’ll never disguise those chubby cheeks

 

[AfghanAndy]

He’s probably only done it for tax purposes.

 

[mechanicalhorsetrough]

Let's hope that annoying twat outside the House of Commons who used to interrupt every news broadcast with his sodding "Stop Brexit" megaphone will quietly shuffle off, never to appear in public again. Ever.

15 months on……and yes he has! Wonderful

Media firm City AM are still playing the doom tune.

Brexit-supporting Newark in shock as largest employer shuts up shop and heads for mainland Europe

Local media and residents in the English town of Newark, as well as its local MP Robert Jenrick, are said to be shocked and disappointed by the decision

www.cityam.com

The population of Newark is 122K
The population of Nottinghamshire is 828K

Compared to the US Dem's darling, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, driving Amazon and its 50k jobs out of her already deprived district with its population of 710k, 110 jobs is hardly comparable.

They're right of course, we should re-join the EU and suck it up. We know our place.
I note the absence of any story or rationale to explain why they are moving to "The EU" as though it was obvious that it was too difficult in the racist, xenophobic UK to continue producing their exclusively "meat free" line of "Food".

Oh wait, now I see, there's a bigger market of gullible suckers in the EU and they have greater competition in the UK.

ETA: You can find their products filling the "To Clear" fridge spaces in all of their outlets, Waitrose, Tesco, Sainsbury's, Ocado.

Ever get the feeling some journalists haven’t quite accepted that they got their initial predictions wrong and just keep flogging a dead horse?

I can name quite a gee companies that shut down and re-located to the EU even before talk of a brexit referendum.

To be honest though, I’m not too bothered about loosing a few food processing jobs.

Brexit...ha ha ha. I told you so.

 

[AfghanAndy]

Brexit...ha ha ha. I told you so.

Yes you did.

You did omit to mention that post brexit we’d get the largest ever recorded numbers of exports to the EU.

UK trade - Office for National Statistics

Total value of UK exports and imports of goods and services by current price, chained volume measures and implied deflators.

www.ons.gov.uk

Covered in the first section, main points.

The figures there seem to indicate a sustained trade imbalance with the EU, too. One which tracks roughly with the sterling/euro exchange rate.
