Brexit mega thread part 4 : non goady thread : Christmas edition

[Opal8]

Hi,

Longtime lurker and poster (under various nn) on Westminstenders and these threads.

I'm afraid the other thread op pissed me off a lot so here's another option for those of us that want one.

Wishing you all a Happy Christmas and good luck for 2022.

[quote BringBackCoffeeCreams]UK disabled badges no longer being recognised in EU countries.
Brexit really is the gift that just keeps on giving.

and we won't recognise theirs. SO THERE !

So much for blue passports

The countries are believed to be resistant to recognising British badges because it is difficult for local officials and parking wardens to verify the authenticity of non-EU badges, a problem EU badges do not have because they are of a common design and part of the same scheme.

This has always been a problem. I got 3 parking tickets in the first few months of moving to Sweden as they didn't think my UK issued badge was real. To be fair, compared to the Swedish ones it did look like a Blue Peter home job.

UK Steel Industry braces for slump in trade as US reduces tariffs on EU.

Tariffs remain on UK exports to US as European Union rivals gain a 25% price advantage from New Year’s Day.

Brexshit and the "special relationship" both going swimmingly then...

Shurely Shume Mishtake ?

I thought we put the fear of God up the septics* and told them who was boss ? Looks like they really want to bring it on ....

*or Shermans, depends on set and setting

Not quite sure what is on my cv that picked up a job with this prerequisite ... although when I was fintech-ing, Africa was mentioned regarding micropayments a lot ....

The Brexshitters favourite Donald Tusk, laying it, very clearly, as the rest of the world sees it; Brexshit is the last dying twitches of the British Empire...

Yes he is right.

Woow! More Brexshit wins!

TELEGRAPH FRONT: Don’t mention Brexit, civil servants are told

Proof surely that Brexit is not a success - otherwise, why not it mention it?

TELEGRAPH FRONT: Don’t mention Brexit, civil servants are told

I'm so puzzled, shouldn't Brave Brexitannian BeLeaving Patriots be shouting about the obvious triumphs of their vote?

They are. This thread is full of all the wonderful bonus' of Brexit. We don't even have to hear about sovereignty and taking back control of our borders any more because there are so many other Brexit dividends.

@Peregrina

Yes he is right.

Agreed.

Not quite Brexit don’t mention the war but given that the original nightingale hospitals were never used due to lack of nursing staff, the only possible reason for building more ‘mini’ nightingale’s has to be that some construction mates of Johnson or really could be a mate of anyone in the cabinet needed more taxpayers money. So they obliged him with a govt contract make work project. AFAIK more nurses haven’t magically appeared in the last two years as some unknown Brexit bonus?

It's a simple solution for increased nursing staff, I don't know why it hasn't been thought of before. Any nurses working the night shift have nothing to do during the day, so they could work the nightingales then. And vice versa for the day shift. Problem solved.

So now we know where BJ hasn't been over the last 10 days...

To be fair to the BBC News website, today it has a story on a consequence, sorry, one of the glories of Brexit.

This is indeed big news and what would Screaming Lord Such say?
One of his parties key policies was that pets need holidays too.

I just popped my head around the door to say Happy New Year to you all.
A thank you to posters past and present for continuing to highlight what an absolute con the B word is.
I don't post often as I can't articulate the shit show as eloquently as you all do but I do regularly read.

Happy new year to you all ❤️

I don't feel particularly hopeful, but without hope what do we have?

Perhaps the opening of the brexshit Pandoras box will leave some hope behind 🙏
