"could" doesn't mean much0

Burying the lede in order to propagate Project Fear and engender clickbait I see....none of the firms we spoke to said they have any plans to charge extra....Conjugating the verb 'to be":
-o I am humble -o You are attention seeking -o She is Nadine Dorries0 -
Same old same old from MSE posts......headline followed by "could" followed by "if". Journalism at its most infantile.0

To be fair, this is politician speak for we will be but want to deny it at the moment using a form of words which gives us an option of doing what we appear to be denying.0 -

What would you rather? It's an event that will almost certainly have currency rates implications, and MSE is pointing out that if that happens then you could pay more, and there's little you can do about it.
Not a lot of good reporting on it afterwards if it happens, but this could save people some money, which is the point of this site- not "journalism", but information to help people make financial decisions.
People being informed about the risks, even if they decide to take them anyway, is a good thing.
Say that a package comes up that's near identical, I'd rather take it from a company who says that they won't put up the price than one who says "maybe".
You might instead decide that you'd rather go with a company that isn't guaranteeing on surcharges because you overall prefer the provider and you don't think the risk is that great. That's a valid response too, but the important thing is that we both made an informed choice.0 -

Accurate articles, that don't exaggerate, or otherwise mislead, in order to get people to read them.Conjugating the verb 'to be":

I also remember the bad times where holiday firms used to get away with surcharges when the price of oil was sky high.
Lazy businesses blame BREXIT for everything.
Nobody will convince me that holiday firms have not already costed BREXIT into their prices already.0
