Brexit

To be terrified of no deal Brexit

Having just watched the headlines, it really does seem that Boris is hellbent on taking us out with no deal. The fact he’s thrown down the gauntlet to the EU stating that he won’t come to the table unless they drop the backstop - well of course they’re not going to do that, and Boris won’t back down, so we will be leaving with no deal.

What do you think will be the repercussions of this? I’m terrified I’m going to lose my job and my home. If I’m worried then I can’t imagine what people reliant on various meds are going through.

I think I might stop watching the news as it just makes me anxious.

Brexit will have everyone upping their game

In what way?

How will an adult social care worker in the community "up their game" or someone in an amazon warehouse, perhaps a telecoms technician?

What exactly do you mean?

TheElementsSong · 30/07/2019 21:13

1)Looking for the opportunities. Yeah I know you absolutely can’t think of any. But you will.
2) Pulling it down by with relentless hyperbolic aggression.Of course you’re allowed, if it makes you feel better but it’s not helpful.

Empty slogan spritzing. Thanks ever so.

I guarantee what ever you reply about "up you game!". You will get torn into for your reply...

Me too! Simultaneously attempting to be imperious and ominous. But I can't help hearing it in a Mrs Doyle way Grin

Come off what? She had loads piling in saying how ignorant she was for saying we wouldn’t be like Africa (rather than a specific country). I defended her position and said Africa as a continent makes her point too. That’s the relevance Lonelycrab

Lonelycrab · 30/07/2019 21:24

Up your game. Like survival of the fittest, huh?

Right. I see.

Ps if responding with facts and arguments is “tearing you to shreds” maybe one should step away from the keyboard and have a little think instead? If you can’t argue your point back, that’s not my problem.

We are being played here. No way the Tories want a No Deal.

Means to an end for them though. But not a no deal either, keep an eye on Mr. Cummings.

I doubt this will end in a great deal for most of us anyway. But what can we do?

Socksontheradiator · 30/07/2019 21:24

It's no longer OK to talk about 'third world counties' like we once did. It's racist and not acceptable.
By saying Africa, and expecting us to follow, says to me that's exactly what she meant, and that's why she quite rightly got jumped on.

twofingerstoEverything · 30/07/2019 21:27

Apparently, the government is so confident that a no deal Brexit is going to be amazing, that it's taken out hundreds of gagging orders. Presumably they're trying to prevent spontaneous and damaging outbursts of joy and happiness as we gaze towards our glorious sunlit future...

Nothingcomesforfree · 30/07/2019 21:29

Not worried mummy2017. The endless whining on does my head in though.Its all so vitriolic.
And stupid. Endless posts about never forgiving leave voters but now banging on about helping out at food banks to help said leave voters who will be losing their jobs.

Even if it’s the biggest fuck up ever how does crying help?

mummmy2017 · 30/07/2019 21:36

Socksontheradiator I think the world has gone mad, when you can't say a continent is poor, when we as a country have a massive amount of money sent that has been begged for from adverts and concerts, TV programs where they visit the area just so they can broadcast heart renching film footage, where the second there is a drought or disaster we get live footage.

Anyone else hear The Magic Roundabout theme tune?

jasjas1973 · 30/07/2019 21:49

So you come out with a sunny uplands slogan "Upping their game" but cannot back it up, no surprise, been going on for over 3 years.

Campaigning against policies one doesn't agree with, is a fundamental right in a democracy, especially irreversible ones that will wreck the country, no amount of pray or positive vibes will change that.

Aye.

Cosentyx - No one I know uses the word pleasanter, and I think "more pleasant" is more pleasant than pleasanter!

Wow 🤔

Alsohuman · 30/07/2019 22:16

Yes, wow. No words.

mummmy2017 · 30/07/2019 22:19

Oh are you saying we don't send my Ney, that the Govenment don't have an Aid Budget.

mummmy2017 · 30/07/2019 22:20

Sorry ..send millions.

Lonelycrab · 30/07/2019 22:22

No ones saying that mummy. You are.

mummmy2017 · 30/07/2019 22:25

Glad you agree with me then.

Lonelycrab · 30/07/2019 22:26

So what’s your point?

Oh hang on a minute my spuds are cooked.

MaudBaileysGreenTurban · 30/07/2019 22:31

I take it you don't agree with us having an aid budget then, mummmy?

Quel surprise.
