Encouraging news over Brexit.

I don't believe that the current Parliament will ever be happy with any deal, most want to remain. It's up to the people to make sure that the right M.P.s are elected who will agree to Brexit.

Yes I would be happy with a 'no deal' Brexit.
Wrapping up in cotton wool never got anyone anywhere, if we have to go it alone, so be it.

Does anybody have any idea what is going on now? I hear the withdrawal bill has now been dropped.

Re: Encouraging news over Brexit.
So, you’d vote for a party with NO manifesto and only 1 reason for existing.... to rule for 5 years, with a fascist like Farage in charge? Dearly dear

No point in arguing with you, you failed to vote, you complain bitterly about the result, then post every remain article that you can find. It's boring. The words used in the article you posted are 'Brexit uncertainty' and 'S & P predicts', not written in stone then, just someone's opinion.
L.B
It is my belief that most do. It has been shown that even M.P.s who are supposed to represent their constituents have voted to remain, in spite of an overwhelming leave vote. Had Parliament had the courage to deliver Brexit in 2016, this would have been all done and dusted. I always said that I shan't live to see Brexit, if I do, it will probably be a deal that leaves us shackled to the EU anyway.

Re: Encouraging news over Brexit.
So tell us, who will you be voting for ?
Re: Encouraging news over Brexit.
Not labour or the Tories.... Haven't made my mind up, likely SNP or LibDems....

Re: Encouraging news over Brexit.
As a remainer my vote will be going to the Lib Dems. Time to revoke Article 50 and work together with our (extremely patient) friends in the EU to give us all a bright future.
Re: Encouraging news over Brexit.
You are correct Lloyd; talking to my Leaver sister the other day and during the whole conversation she was complaining about how the cost of her weekly food shop had risen by nearly 50% over the last three years. Not being one to check their outgoings I'm pretty certain our food bill hasn't risen by anything like that amount over the same period.
If I suggest it's down to the affects of Brexit she just does not want to know and as you stated; there's none so blind....
I used to say to my lad when he was young; there's two ways to learn a lesson, the hard way and the easy way and I believe a lot of Leavers will learn the hard way.
We've already had a Minister, James Cleverly admit yesterday they will change workers rights after Brexit. The thin end of the wedge.

Re: Encouraging news over Brexit.
Well my next few days will be tied up with paperwork getting information ready and cross referenced in readiness for the knocking on doors.
We weren't anticipating it would be quite so soon but we have already made some inroads.
If you are eligible to vote (those who left UK less than 15yrs ago) and want to have your say, please get your postal request in.
Being apathetic then moaning about it later is as much use as a chocolate teapot!

Re: Encouraging news over Brexit.
As we haven't Brexited yet, surely the increase in the weekly food shop cannot be accredited to Brexit?Jim B wrote: ↑Wed Oct 30, 2019 6:36 am You are correct Lloyd; talking to my Leaver sister the other day and during the whole conversation she was complaining about how the cost of her weekly food shop had risen by nearly 50% over the last three years.

A sign of things to come no doubt.
I wouldn't think fruit and vegetables rotting in the fields because there's no EU Labour coming to pick it is bringing costs down either.

We returned to UK a few months before the Referendum in 2016.
In the last 2 years we've seen a regular pattern in our supermarket. Stock is often running down, disappears then the space doesn't get filled again for 3 - 4 weeks at a time.
It's not always the same products which are running out, it's stuff on a regular basis which comes from different places.
It wasn't happening in the first year - 2016 but certainly since the middle of 2017.
We also see empty shelves in other stores that we visit, with the exception of Lidl.
