A thank you to Brexiteers.

[TopCat]

Yup

The Leave campaign and our Disgraced Prime Minister de Pfeffel Johnson lied about why we were leaving.

Now their solution is to allow EU workers back to 'save Christmas' but they are not going to come bar a few. This is after 5 years of planning time and info from the affected industries etc.

So what is the solution to the fucked up mess the liars and #ToryScum have caused? Banging on about a fraction of the UK workforce getting a payrise is not something to cheer about (must as it is well deserved) so ideas?

It’s not Armageddon mate. More HGV tests will be done, more training, a bit more remainers pointing to a lack of organic orange juice (not from concentrate) with bits in Waitrose.

can we just blame the fucking Torys

They are the cancer eating away all that is decent

Should be good in 5 years then?

Our beshitted government has already had 5 years to deal with this. You honestly think it will get sorted?



At least the scaffold trucks had a payrise eh? Much more important than the NHS, education, care sector and many many other disgraces we are dealing with?

 

[Badgers]

TopCat given you and me have both had cancer do you think orange juice is the issue here?

 

[Badgers]

If people voted for Brexit then have at it. But if you can honestly say that #ToryScum government could deliver anything other than a fucking farce then fuck you.

Everything they touch turns to shit and misery. Even if I wanted this racist, blitz spirit farce I would not have voted for it with a #ToryScum government.

I don't know about Waitrose, but it seems cartons of fruit juice have been completely absent from a lot of Morrisons for at least a couple of weeks. In mine, you can still get Ocean Spray and tomato juice, though. Which goes to show that, even in difficult times, people will only stoop so low.

 

[AmateurAgitator]

Anti-Toryism doesn't go far enough at all. It is shallow. The real problem is capitalism itself, not just the tories.

I would much rather a juicy rib-roast at Christmas, might do one one the side this year.

Trying to get home via Waterloo round midnight last night Not so sure , Country is pretty shambolic and tempers frayed.
As much I agree with 'oh well no orange juice" (not something I've actually encounter any problem getting) in general things are beyond ropey

It's going to be a tough winter

You’re much chirpier than yesterday, that’s nice.

I am concerned that this will all get worse. Not in the sense of a lack of 8 choices of orange juice and certainly not private car fuel but more medicines and staple food.

 

[MrSki]

Seems the turkeys voted against Christmas.

I have never watched that show but, I ate a pigeon for the first time last year, that my neighbour shot, it was a bit chewy but quite nice. Even Londoners could feast on them too.

 

[TopCat]

Yeah if more dickheads panic buy all the fuel, a new variant comes along with a huge hike in energy prices. I guess we are talking about different things. The food shortages wont cause hunger.

Yesterday you were worried about access to medicines & staple foods but today you’re not. I am in a good mood today too. I do think it’s going to be a bit shit this winter, possibly even worse than last winter, but not zombie apocalypse level shit.

My concerns, though real and present are not really linked to this current set of shortages.

They will when prices go up

 

[The39thStep]

Utterly amazing that we have a global supply chain whose principle aim is to provide cheap food to those on low incomes .

 

[TopCat]

Prices are going up because of shortages? not because of profit?

 

[bimble]

Stupid argument imo, total waste of time saying ‘well prices wouldn’t go up this winter if we didn’t live under a capitalist system / if all those businesses just stopped being mean and profit driven’. Might make you feel better, but pointless.

I mean blaming leave voters for prices going up isn't just pointless, it is kind of harmful as it should go without saying that voters aren't the ones with the power here. If you don't think we should be pointing the finger at the enemy where should we be pointing it?
