    Buying British: Why do it?

    Choosing British means supporting British farmers

    OK, so support 1.5% of the UK's workforce by everyone in the UK paying higher prices for our food. So 98.5% of us will be financially worse off thanks to Brexit, exactly what many of us predicted. Way to go Brexiteers, we couldn't have done it without you, anything is worth it to get rid of all those pesky foreigners, right? ;)

    Why?
    WHY have these [STRIKE]vultures[/STRIKE] MP's decide when TM has already given a date of "by the end of March"?
    Justification for MP's existence, perhaps?
    Returning sovereignty to the UK Parliament was one of the brexiteers' often repeated slogans.
    And now we have the same brexiteers up in arms when there's even the slightest mention of something being debated and voted on in Parliament.
    You couldn't make it up. :rotfl:
    Don't blame me, I voted Remain.

    October saw the seasonally adjusted Markit/CIPS Purchasing Managers’ Index post 54.3, down slightly from 55.5 in September, to remain well above its long-run average of 51.5.

    Rob Dobson, an economist at Markit, said: "The UK manufacturing sector remained on a firm footing in October and should return to growth in the fourth quarter.
    "Despite slowing from September's highs, growth of output and new orders continued to defy expectations, rising at marked rates and supporting the fastest job creation in a year."

    It wasn't about returning sovereignty to politicians (in the UK parliament) - it was about returning sovereignty to the British people.

    People have had enough of politicians signing Treaties like Maastrict (Tories) and Lisbon (Labour) giving away their rights without ever asking them what they want.

    People don't trust (some) politicians to deliver and who can blame them?

    Power to the People.

    And Anna Soubry has nailed my views on this. Remember she was a Vote Leave campaigner

    Anna Souby is a staunch Remainer.

    I accept the result of the non-legally binding referendum and will move on. Shouldn't be too hard of a concept to grasp, even for a brexiteer. :)
