Ok. What is there positive? Facts, not hopes...Irish Border solution? Customs solution? Avoiding a no deal exit?

Give it your best shot.

It was a Long shot two years ago but a series of unforced errors (red lines, botched early election, early notification of A50 with no plan) have left it unworkable without severe economic shocks

we will become more self-sufficient, buy British more frequently. Industries like farming will be more innovative. Think it will overall stimulate more pride in the country, which has been sadly lacking in recent years. Our businesses will become more resourceful and reach out to new markets through the need to be more competitive. We will definitely have more control, which was a pressing issue for many. New relationships, new rules, sense of freedom. We will be the trailblazers that other nations currently in the EU will definitely follow. 

Sure there will be economic shocks, which will be felt throughout the EU. But when the French are burning tyres and the Spanish sleeping in the afternoon Great Britian will simply keep calm and carry on, our spirit being best positioned to deal with adversity when compared to jonny foreigner. And what a great lesson the EU will be teaching all the people of Europe with their petty bollocks, sure will make those leaders popular.


Thank you

So nothing specific then, just some jingoistic ideals.

To be clear, I’m sorry for potentially giving Rich a headache. I’m not sorry for insulting the leech. (I know actual leeches are cool but hopefully you know what I mean :-)

Specifically for e.g. I think British Farming will be reformed for the better

More specifically I think peach farming will prove lucrative

Seems to be a lot more precious petals around these days, could be lucrative also?

Yes but the non precious guys are giving us no specifics to counter these concerns. Just airy fairy ideals.

And it's been the same for over 18 months

6353 hours until Brexit, and counting

To add to that, I have a lot of extended family members that work/worked in farming and have had to close down over the last 10 years or so because they can’t compete with imports. Sure prices might go up a bit, but at least it provides jobs in the UK........Do you mind paying a bit more for milk, cheese etc?

Glad that you are happy that some of my family have been put out of work by the EU....

Fair enough, took it the other way with quick reading.....I see no reason why food essentials we can produce ourselves like this should ever be imported to squeeze an extra bit of profit. Though I accept the supermarkets need a kick up the arse to stop doing it!

Who the fk buys those tasteless strawberries from Spain anyway? They need a proper kick up the rusty bullet hole!
