  • I don't even like Turkey, we only have it because it's 'tradition' in our household. :D
  • People will be people. This government backers has used that a great deal to date for the pro Bojo spin, people nit happy when it swings the other way? Press are just saying what it is unless we accept a gov compliant press a la North Korea. Though Murdoch and Barclay, Tufton St and No10 etc. are having a good go at it.
    Just in time deliveries have a benefit, when they work. I can see the shelves are empty, I can see the fuel prices through the roof.
  • Neither do we, so usually GB leg of lamb or stuffed pork loin.. can't stand Brussels either - the place or the veg  :smiley:
  • Shortage of EU membership

    Hi, can I ask that people stop commenting on this after mines.  This thread bores me to tears.  This is all to do with people voting to leave EU (Brexit)  No one will admit they voted wrong.  Instead they will say its because of CV19.

    LOL it's not just the UK suffering this, how the **** is it just due to Brexit? 
    Stop being so salty and trying to blame literally EVERYTHING on it. 

    As the dude above said, people are very vulnerable to panic buying atm, I fully believe the sugar aisle could be cleared out with a few facebook posts. Most amusingly was all the idiots buying up all the rice, and having no idea what to do with it.

    You can add "common sense" to the list
    Common sense is not as common as commonly believed.

    There sure are.

    Thankfully though most people saw sense and voted to get us out of the EU.
    For Democracy to work, the losers have to accept defeat.
