Brexit the economy and house prices part 6

Only the incompetent would go ahead with a brexit that isnt one.

The idiots continue to rule and as such expect nothing short of the aforementioned incompetence.

No technical reason, but a financial one.

"Only the incompetent would go ahead with a brexit that isnt one."

Do you mean this isn't Brexit or there isn't a plan for Brexit?

I mean a technical deal for brexit, that isnt brexit at all, only in name only.

Only an idiot would do that, as it takes all power away from us, leaves us limp and yet effectively now out of EU

Indeed.

There was a bakery producer on the radio the other day.

He said that they would have to shift to more raw materials from places like the USA.

The interviewer (BBC) was surprised, automatically assuming that the foodstuffs had to be fresh.

"No, a lot of it is frozen, and can be shipped". He confirmed.

This is a BBC interviewer, who has done plenty of these Brexit Impact discussions, who should have arguably known more.

We actually import baguettes into this country, when there is no technical reason whatsoever that we can not produce them here. You'd never know this, of course, listening to airheads like Emily Thornberry.

The good news is that less and less people are listening.

According to ONS

https://www.ons.gov.uk/peoplepopulationandcommunity/leisureandtourism/articles/traveltrends/2016

Brits spend £44 Billion on trips abroad.Even if a quarter of that goes to Europe, Thats a lot of money for the Greek and Spanish economies to be missing out on

Edit: in fact, on the next page

https://www.ons.gov.uk/peoplepopulationandcommunity/leisureandtourism/articles/traveltrends/2015-05-20

It says 20.4% of British travel is to Spain, which accounts for £9 Billion of the above amount alone

Indeed it is charming to see the Brits spending their money in the shops in Spain. Without this unthinking support the shops in Spain would be struggling just like the shops in the British high streets.
I am there at the moment and the Brits are doing a great job supporting Spanish retail.

The other 27 might not be happy with the draft proposal in some form. The horses are only just lining up for what amounts to be akin to the Grand National. Except in this case everybody needs to get round.

Yes the population density is low, but where is the extra water required going to come from?

I don't care if Poles want to speak to other Poles in Polish, I do care about them forcing other costs on the nhs, I do care about them expecting a free ride because they can't speak the language and can't be bothered to learn. And it is not just Poles, it is a lot of Eastern Europeans, Blair should not have opened the door to them. Proof that Labour are fully capable of wrecking our country.

Who created this strange society where a visit to the NHS requires for free an interpreter.

Just ask British immigrants in France, Spain, Germany and Italy (plus the other EU23) if they get an interpreter for free when they visit a Doctor or Hospital.

Please, please stop blaming the EU and immigrants for the silly decisions taken by Britain.

Obviously still waiting to see the finalproposed Exit arrangement but if we are getting the rumoured rebellion from the ERG wing of the Tories it is hard to see how this isn't dead in the water irrespective of the views in Europe, the DUP have already confirmed they are voting against I believe and at best the Govt might get 10-15 Labour rebels (and that is very much at best), even a few Tory Remainers are likely to rebel.

From the sky? We do live in a country with quite a bit of precipitation if you hadn't noticed yet, busy as you are analyzing your local Polish community.
But thanks for the chuckle.
'The furreners are stealing our water!' :rotfl:

Poor infrastructure in the water industry!

Let’s blame the EU for that. Yes let’s.
