I must admit I don't remember mushy peas being a thing when I lived in Ireland. Ax^ is considerably more Irish than me so may have a view.

one of the things i learned today is that great britian is 90% self sufficient in peas, which makes the shortage of frozens last year even more specific, it was about the amount of people needed to get 45,000 tonnes of them 'from field to bag' in whatever it was 2 and a half hours, within the short harvest season.

absolutely shocking behaviour thats 120g less of peas we get, and they have the temerity to claim that both tins contain 3 portions. The fact that the Irish ones are being exported to Eu now whilst we have to carry on buying the miserly British ones is pretty tragic tbh.

eta i have sent batchelors an email enquiring as to why this injustice is happening and will notify thread if any poor sod there is obligated to reply to me.

Those 300g cans existed before Brexit. I should know, since at one point cans of mushy peas was one of the cheap foods I lived off of. Looks to me like they just use the standard size tins in the Irish market.

Portion sizes have always been complete and utter bollocks. Far too fucking small, in my experience. Again, different markets, so no reason to assume that portion sizes are standardised across them both. Are portion sizes even standardised within the EU?

Portion sizes are always lies yes. Especially the “sharing / family size” bollocks.
 
I’ve been saying for some time that Project Remain’s refusal to leave 2016 has become increasingly less about politics or political economy and more about a psychological collapse amongst a particular demographic.

This is a classic case in point. Here, Brexit is presented in purely emotional terms. A set of economic, legal and constitutional obligations become something achievable by ‘faith’ and resolution inevitable by waiting for the traditional stages of grief to be worked through.

The threat itself - and the comments about it, that apparently accept that this way of understanding Brexit is normal is highly disturbing…

Maybe, but what is remarkable about this?

We are where we are precisely because Project Leave’s refusal to leave 1975 had become increasingly less about politics or political economy and more about a psychological collapse amongst a particular demographic.

And so it goes...

Doesn't the possibility of musicians finally being able to make a living abroad after several years of being totally fucked over by Brexit cheer you too?

Not that it's likely to happen any time soon, mind.

It is good that Labour are not trying to undo what was done but are wanting to fix some of the glaring Tory errors. The policy announcement in itself is not enough to get my vote. What about you? Would it swing your vote?
 
Labour (Starmer) is saying what they’re saying because they are scared of leaver reaction, not because they have a clue about how to make leave work.
Leave can’t work unless the land border in Ireland is resolved, Labour has no more clue than any of the tossers who voted leave, especially the lexit poseur cunts.

I reckon the blairite delusion extends to the 3 term project...lie to get into office for 1st term, promote referendum on re-entering single market in term 2 and then have ref/re-enter in the glorious 3rd term.
