No context. No company logo, just a piece of card plonked on a window ... same old Project Fear?
A thank you to Brexiteers.

BLT = Brexit Less Tomato
No. Why would they harm themselves that way?
It's bollocks.

Tomato ruins a BLT: pissing insipid red juice all over the bread and the bacon. No place on a full English either.
The made up shortage of them is therefore, yet another benefit of Lexit.
I would demand the continuity remain loons thank us for delivering the mythical shortage, but it strikes me that they are the type who enjoy tomato pissing out everywhere.

any update on the chronic petit pois shortage that has devastated Britain?

That might be the first time I've seen the word Lexit since about 2019 - is there an alternative reality in which Prime Minister Jeremy Corbyn has nationalised tomato production? Because I would definitely choose that one over both the one in which Remain won the referendum and the one where Boris Johnson brought in a hard Brexit after a landslide election win.

I suppose it might be possible to expand tomato production in the UK as most tomatoes imported are from Holland whose climate is similar .That might be the first time I've seen the word Lexit since about 2019 - is there an alternative reality in which Prime Minister Jeremy Corbyn has nationalised tomato production?

Never quite understood why Britain got so many Dutch tomatoes when it was in a free trade bloc with Italy and Spain and other countries where tomatoes taste like tomatoes.

Why are you obsessed with tambourine shakers? Weird.
It might be a big laugh to you, but a lot of people in the creative industries now find themselves unemployed or struggling because of Brexit.

It's a nonsense. Creative industries have never burgeoned like this before - several new theatres being built with 4K or more added seats. Netflix, Disney, Amazon all throwing £billions at London and regions in new hubs and new productions. Google's new European HQ: a £1 billion building. It's a boom time like no other for creatives.

Yes they are tasless shite mainly. I think its because they are picked green then ripened with gas so have a longer supermarket life. We, the UK, do quite a bit of trade with Morocco in tomatoes as well.
Do like a fresh tomato with olive oil , black pepper and a bit of soft cheese.

I'm sure the multinational corporates are doing very well indeed - and I know you're a big fan.
But I'm talking about the grassroots/small to medium band music scene, where they've been utterly screwed by Brexit. It's all been very well documented here. Educate yourself:
Brexit - impact on musicians, touring and the music/events industry
it seems to be to do with illegally downloaded material rather than streaming stuff. have you read the story? So everyone pays all of them because of piracy?

Meanwhile, the costs of Brexit continue to escalate:

Brexit admin costs dwarf Levelling Up Fund
Departments had to tap the Treasury for no-deal preparations, even though agreement was secured

I put in five or six plants this year and got a total of about 12 peas.
So Brexit has been crap here. I think it was someone else with the petit pois though, but I will check if they have any proper peas at shop. .

Noice. I like them in a salad with roasted lemon, fennel, pomegranate and herbs grown on my balcony. I guess I’ll need to start growing my own tommies now though given the Brexit related famine I’ve been reading about on here.

Hurrah for the corporate creatives!

Pretty well everywhere in the media and not this utterly depressed, niche backwater where the seemingly permanently socially awkward come to feel hip.
