A thank you to Brexiteers.

[brogdale]

Wait till GBNews find out that the tories have an MP exclusively for Woking.

 

[The39thStep]

Mmm , from tariff wars to "bespoke arrangements” offer

 

[Ax^]

will admit i'm slightly confused here, is this a dig at the brexiters or remainers?

 

[kebabking]

The Uk should start producing its own insulin really, just in case. And try to have an agricultural sector that still exists in a year or two.

Countries should, imv, try to become as self-sufficient as they can be without getting all hair shirt about it - a truly globalised system of production is an organism that has very little capability to cope with upsets like pandemics, sustained conflict, even silly stuff like an idiot boat getting stuck in the Suez canal....

It’s the reality of negotiations tbh . Most of which are done on the hoof as short term compromises untill there is a more fortuitous opportunity.

Shame that brexit looks like it’s going to kill off large parts of our food production isn’t it, making us even more dependent on imports than before. Unless we just focus on a few key crops and stop expecting to have all sorts of frivolous things to eat like other countries have.

turnips - we should all adopt a diet of turnips

Fuck that. I still remember the problems they caused Blackadder.

 

[two sheds]

Better than a Diet of Worms though.

Mmm, the patron saint of Crispy Pancakes.

I've heard there's money to be made in pig insulin for humans, and a lot of pigs currently up for the chop. Another Brexit win-win if you ask me.

 

[MrSki]

It is not St Crispen but St Crispin & his brother St Crispinian who share to same saints day & are the patron saints of cobblers.

Yeh not sure how much insulin you'll get out of Cressida Dick

St Crispin is the patron saint of Pringles tubes.

French fishermen warn of blockades in UK licence row

Why the fishermen of Boulogne-sur-Mer are angry at being refused licences to fish in British waters.

www.bbc.co.uk

"We'll create as much disruption as we can, by blocking the things Britain needs the most," he said.
"We saw the [impact of the] gas shortage; we'll try to create another shortage of something else. We're ready to block everything: Calais, Dunkirk, the Channel Tunnel. We need this fishing licence and we'll do anything to get it."

 

[Ax^]

of course get angry at the French not the dippy fucker painting sunsets in Spain

Pringles aren’t crisps

If it was British small boat fishermen threatening direct action to keep their liveihoods that would be noble and good but they're execrable frenchmen obvs.

But you just hate Brits and the UK. If it was British fishermen being restricted by the French you’d be asking what gives them the right to fish in French waters.

You’re right actually, I feel the least patriotic I’ve ever felt right now, which is saying quite a lot.

 

[Ax^]

damn you brimble and you anti British fever

bet you don't even have a massive bloody apron flying majestically on a flag pole outside your house

Fair play to you Bimble. At least you recognise your inverted exceptionalism.
