A thank you to Brexiteers.

Local warehouses near me are offering up to £20/hr overtime. Just saying

What's that got to do with Brexit?

Wages are going up all over the place because of COVID-related labour issues so there's no need to give Boris Johnson's government a reach-around.

It's a real fucking shame that the conditions in which workers are in a strong position against the bosses have coincided with the current bunch of cunts being in power - too many people might get the impression that there's a connection between wages going up and having a right-wing anti-immigration government.

Am not seeing many of these £20+ per hour wages on any job boards

Just take off those brown tinted remoaniac goggles and you'll start to believe.

If you can face going back through the thread (I can't, TBH), you will find plenty of examples of posters swearing blind that the labour issues have nothing to do with Covid and are entirely Brexit related.

The reality, I suggest, is that they are a combination of the two things coming together.

About 60% Brexit and 40% Covid I read

Will dig out the source

 

[Chilli.s]

30% Brexit, 30% Covid, 30% decade of austerity, 10% panic money grab

this seems relevant - video starts at the right point 2 minutes in



just a short 1 minute skit
march them off the cliffs of dover and wages go up!

Has the empty shelf issue abated or have people just become immune to it and given up taking photos?

They’re getting harder to find. Petrol stations are back to normal too, much to the disappointment of some.

Is living in an EU country still better than living in Brexit Britain?

Legal weed and cheaper beer.

Lol. Great timing.

I thought they'd just introduced petrol rationing in China

Still lots round Hertfordshire. Not empty shelves but limited choice. Like I said before nobody is going hungry (apart from those fucked by the #ToryScum of course) but finding 20 shelves of potatoes but barely any greens is shit. Also the shelf life of products is really bad. Got some 'decent' garlic from a soopermarket last week and both cloves are rotting inside.

It is fun to laugh at remoaners and poor people for having less choice and worse quality fresh food isn't it?

Rivers of blood replaced by rivers of sewage #Shitehall should make the racist leavers happy so that is good

Still, Sunlit Uplands can't be far off?

So you’re saying it’s better than it was?

 

[Badgers]

So you’re saying it’s better than it was?

About 7.9% better

 

[Spymaster]

About 7.9% better

I reckon it’s at least 10.4% but good news anyway.

Rejoice, Badgers!

The way things are going it is 104% certain to get better.

There were some empty shelves in the Co op in Manor House yesterday morning when I went in to buy my breakfast.

I couldn't get any freshly baked croissants and instead had to make do with a packet of crisps and a box of mini Bakewell tarts.

According to a conversation I overheard between a couple of staff it was a computer issue which meant they couldn't reorder, but that's probably a lie from Brexit supporting Co op management desperate to hide the truth

When was the last time you benchmarked this comparison?

 

[dessiato]

Hell yes! I’ll not choose to go back. Even here in Galicia which doesn’t have the weather etc of Andalucia it’s better than the U.K.

I've never been to Whitstable, but would it be fair to count this as a minor Brexit benefit?

Couple of friends who live there, hope they didn't partake.
