Westminstenders: a feature of the system not a bug

[RedToothBrush]

Tests on the new queuing system in Kent have revealed that lengthy tail backs are a feature not a bug.

We should get used to them because thats normal not the system malfunctioning, but the planned system working as designed.

Today we have found out that there's no money left. The economy is fucked. And tomorrow we will probably all be in T3 with the Isles of Wight, the tip of Cornwall and inner Westminster the only places left in T1.

Christmas has apparently been 'saved' though. Well if you are dumb and lacking in functional brain cells its 'saved'. Trade for Christmas is already thoroughly goosed and indoor family gatherings may come with a extra side of covid. The BBC have done an epic job of 'doommongering project fear' style graphics on this wonderful subject.

Tis the season to be jolly. Jolly fucked.

Especially if climate change sees the UK having more mozzies ...

My DH is extremely sceptical about the assertion that increased driver capacity for nuclear medicines has been catered for. He's a scientist who works in the nuclear sector and has seen and heard nothing about drafting transporters in. They can't just get in a driver from Eddie Stobbart as the driver has to be trained to handle nuclear materials to the extent that if there is a crash or spill or other distaster, they become the 'expert on site' for the emergency services. So they've recruited people qualified to transport nuclear materials and yet it seems nobody in the neclear sector has been approached about it?

Reading C&P dulls my wits

Completely. Clav, can you stop carpet bombing these threads with massive quotes, please?

Post the link. Let people choose to either click on it or ignore you. You’re making the thread unreadable.

Do what I do: see the name of the poster and scroll on by

He or she rarely posts anything of value, judging the rebuttals from those that can bothered to read the C&P posts

@Clavinova

Repeats false facts. Example please.

I'm not going to trawl through his twitter feed now - numerous tweets and video clips trying to prove that Nigel Farage wanted to stay in the single market for example - all disingenuously edited (I took the trouble to find the original interviews) - where Nigel Farage said he didn't want to stay in the single market (or be the same as Norway) had been edited out.

Eh? That's your example of Femi being an unreliable commentator. Really really desperate stuff there, Clav.

Apparently, DHL now writing to customers advising them of a minimum £4.50 Brexit charge for delivering from UK to EU.

I can't take all this winning!

That's your example of Femi being an unreliable commentator.

Yes - e.g. Femi;
"Nigel Farage passionately defended the idea that we could be like Norway, a Single Market country" but in the actual interview shown on Femi's twitter feed Nigel Farage says - 'Norway's deal is good for Norway but not for the UK.'

interview shown on Femi's twitter feed

Femi has the disingenuously edited version of the interview.

I have certainly heard clips of Farage talking about being like Norway, but this was before the Referendum, and I assume before he realised that they had Freedom of Movement and were in Schengen.

A fact cannot be false , something is a fact or it is not

I know that Clavinova wants it to be true that Nigel Farage has been edited but the truth is that he edited himself - he changed his tune to pretend he never said what he had been heard to say live.

Hmm, wonder what his stance is now on Trump? Considering that he rather noisily backed that loser too.

I have certainly heard clips of Farage talking about being like Norway, but this was before the Referendum

Femi unreliable again then;
"Nigel Farage passionately defended the idea that we could be like Norway, a Single Market country, in 2016."

I haven't a clue who Femi is, but I most certainly remember Farage going on about Norway doing all right for themselves, but as I say, this was before he bothered to find out what the facts were.

Still you need to toddle off out now Clavinova.

🐿 Itching sensations are conveyed to the brain by a largely different set of specialised neurons distinct from those conveying pain messages. Itch receptors are only found on or near the surface of the body, which is why we don’t have to suffer an itchy spleen which we can’t scratch. Itching is unusual, and similar to yawning, in being contagious: even watching a video of somebody else scratching, or even talking about it can make you feel itchy. (Do you feel itchy now? Do you? Do you?)

Therefore, ToryBrexitannianNationalPlague is going to be absolutely brilliant! 🐿

No need to copy all of my copy and paste.

I just quoted your post and replied love.

If you’re bored of reading your C&P jobs imagine how we feel!

2016 was before the Referendum.

Faridge's ever shifting grift is hard to keep up with.

Peregrina , if you look up FemiSorry on Twitter you will see lots of pesky inconvenient truths which must annoy Brexiteers. Especially as he is retweeting clips of shit they said about how easy this would be.

Funny that the Institute for Government agrees that Farage backed a Norway style agreement then, isn’t it?

Others, including George Osborne and Nigel Farage, say that the Norway option of leaving the EU but joining the European Economic Area (EEA) might be on the cards.

Even the rant Meisters at The Express agree that Farage supported a Norway deal.

Others, including George Osborne and Nigel Farage, say that the Norway option of leaving the EU but joining the European Economic Area (EEA) might be on the cards.

Your link was clearly written after the referendum though;
^"The Prime Minister has made two speeches, setting out her vision for Brexit: the Lancaster House speech in January 2017."*

Even the rant Meisters at The Express agree that Farage supported a Norway deal.

"NIGEL FARAGE often cited the Norwegian model as an attractive option for Brexit Britain before the 2016 EU referendum."

"Often" - for example??

22 Feb 2016;
"EU referendum: Ukip leader Nigel Farage says he doesn't want to be part of the European Single Market."

"I don't want to be part of the European Single Market, I want Britain to leave the European Union, be an independent country and trade with the world," Farage said on the BBC, arguing you can have a free trade deal without being part of a political union." ...

"Farage also said earlier in a debate with [Anna] Soubry on Channel 4 News that he wants the UK to be "independent, self-governing, making our own laws", and not a part of the European Single Market and political union which forbids "us from making our own trade deals".

www.cityam.com/eu-referendum-ukip-leader-nigel-farage-says-he-doesnt-want-to-be-part-of-the-european-single-market/

But that is all irrelevant.
Its in the past.
We have to look forwards and decide what to do between now and the end of the year
and then into the future

So, we can agree that Farage clearly talked about a Norway deal for the UK then?

And Farage definitely DID talk about it before the Referendum too - this article predates it:

www.euractiv.com/section/uk-europe/opinion/dont-look-to-norway-brexiteers/

Faridge is completely irrelevant now. He has tried and failed to get elected to the UK Parliament on countless occasions. He's so shit he hasn't even been offered a peerage.
His new grift is anti mask shit. He was one of Trump's noisy backers and lost his big bet on him (if he ever actually made one).

He has a useless flooded car park in Kent named after him. That's his legacy.

And you won't listen to non-Brexity voices because they are mean about him, Clav?

I work in the food industry.

We are already struggling to get some ingredients in that are tied up in the issues around containers.

Some of our products are sold frozen. Our aim is to have an additional week of finished goods in stock by the end of the year. Just one week. It costs to have a larger stock holding than normal. You need to buy the ingredients, pay for the labour and storage, before you get a chance to sell it and eventually get paid for it. One week for us ties up a massive amount of cash. And this year has been massively challenging in terms of cash flow as the way people buy food has massively changed.

Oh and supermarkets are definitely not prepared. Especially when it comes to exporting. And NI needs to be classed as exporting.

My advice is to stock pile as much as you can. I can't see it being anything other than horrific.

In hindsight, part of the problem was to allow an organisation - LeaveEU - to campaign without any duty to implement the result.

If we aren't careful, we'll end up with another issue group lobbying for change with fuck all intention of actually being around when it has to be delivered,

And another.

I would warn our US friends that this is probably where Trump is headed, advised by his bumchum Farage. Someone who is going to agitate for "change" knowing they'll never have to deliver.

🐿 Did I mention that chronic itching can be incredibly debilitating? In the US, there was a case of a woman who had such a bad case of chronic itch that she scratched through her skull into her brain Therefore kindly be distracted from what Brexitatious ringleaders said about Norway, and also do not be concerned about supply chains for essential food and medical supples! 🐿

Femi seems to have set "Theresa May" creeping up Twitter. The subtext being that whatever happens now is Remainers fault, if my speedreading is up to it.
