A thank you to Brexiteers.

[bimble]

can you still buy cheese given the great Brexit famine?

Yes, you just need to pay a bit more, which is fine for posh guardian readers such as myself.

pilgrims choice (350g) extra mature is £2.49 at Tesco’s. Mind you if we’d voted to remain they’d probably pay us to eat it

Here’s one for the competition. I think brexit is to blame for the fact that with mad high world beating infection rates we are abandoning all restrictions on Monday for Freedom Day. If government wasn’t stuffed full of crazy brexiteers with their magical thinking, wilful optimism & exceptionalism we wouldn’t be embarking on this mad experiment / leap of faith. If I get long covid it’s brexits fault.

solid. But no cigar with this level of competition

(((Continuity remain)))

Better than being a supporter of right wing nut job nationalist populist brexiteer idiots from eton. Not that Johnson is a brexiteer, he just wants the power at any expense.

Is this a formal request for entry into the vote off?

i understand there's an auld military dictum about not reinforcing defeat. and it seems to me that being a continuity remainer is reinforcing the defeat of 2016 with further defeats down the line because should we ever rejoin the european union the auld ways will no longer obtain. we'd have to swallow losing the pound. the fairly privileged position we formerly enjoyed will be gone. we will not be the prodigal returned but something the cat dragged in.

I’m not after awards but thanks for the consideration. Brexiteers have already proven they vote wrong so I’d imagine this vote also not working

 

[bimble]

Is that what continuity remain is supposed to mean? The idea that we could rejoin and just .. continue as we were like nothing had happened ? Thought it was just a pretentious word for Remoaner.

^^^^this is what they fail to grasp, there is no going back so either spend forever bleating impotently or get on with dealing with reality. The hundreds of pages of threads on this shit suggest that the grasp that some have on reality is shonky, at best.

From its usage on here I assume continuity remain is laughing at anyone saying look at this fucking shower of shit we’ve got to deal with.

No matter how bad the news it’s always great news for The Working Class and only ever bad news for Middle Class Luvvies.

Its how I imagine Boris propaganda speeches go tbh, which saves me having to listen to them

Might be tough to find this explanation since you use the term in every post.

I’m more than happy to deal with it but I reserve the right to complain like a motherfucker.



I’ve more than accommodated Lexit as a viable position but this ain’t what we’re living in. Eventually brexit might lead to socialist utopia and a blow to capital but right now it’s not so complaining is a fucking right.

Haven’t had a meal deal in 18 months but it’s not thanks to brexit

Yes you said it was two blokes on Twitter I think . A non existent movement that seems to haunt you.

Middle classes forced into common thieving during the great Brexit cheese famine:

Middle-class shoplifters stealing cheese and wine

Store owners are reporting the rise of the middle-class shoplifter - as affluent criminals raid stores for luxury items such as cheese, wine and chocolate.

Your choice, a synonym for complain is moan.

 

[bimble]

The one time in my life I got caught shoplifting it was in fact cheese. But it was in spain. So the moral of the story is fucked.

When you visit your folks try the five-fingered discount there, the Swiss are fucking mad for assuming no one would do it, criminal not to really.

I once stuffed six Swiss Army knives, quite big ones, in my pocket in a shop in Crans Montana, the two assistants never gave me a glance, the mugs.

 

[bimble]

six? fucking hell.

Switzerland was more expensive than I imagined, I needed to fund the trip somehow...

 

[bimble]

it is insanely expensive. But minimum wage shelf stacker jobs etc are about 4 x more than here, its own little world. Befitting of a Remoaner. i have a swiss passport and everything.

I like their passports, rubbery...

They are rubbery and oddly medical yes. cant decide whether to try to use the swiss one, to get in there, from covid island, or whether i'd get impounded and sent to a detention center upon return because brexit.

You are allowed in now with either UK or Swiss passport, just don't wear a niqab or burka, or the racist cunts will arrest you.
