How has Brexit actually affected you so far?

I've noticed a massive increase in whining and a general distaste for working class people from a big chunk of middle class people who identify themselves as lefties. Conversely it's a bit more quiet in town now, there's less scrapping about which Polish football team has the best firm and the amount of empty Tyskie lager cans around the bus station has reduced significantly. I even heard that local firms are actually starting to consider local people for jobs where they were brought up. Fancy that.

General Bollocks more like.

And yet there has been no actual legislative change. Amazing. Miraculous you could say.
 
Yes, we're still full members of the EU and will remain so for the near future, Article 50 hasn't been enacted yet. Nothing has changed regarding membership but armageddon is happening right now if some folk are to be believed.

Or utopia, if you listen to others
 
either way the PM pledged article 50 would be activated (invoked? summoned?) by this month. Then things will get messy(er). Oh what brave new world etc

No, tidier - those dirty Poles are leaving and so is the mess they make. Didnt you read General Trolls post? First hand evidence right here of it:

You mean the post starting...

Obviously the poster has had a full ironectomy
Wages have been supressed due to cheap, foreign labour, working class Brits complain about this Thatcherite wet dream, Guardianistas slag off working class Brits who are displaced and label them too lazy to work. There's the irony.

Nothing ironic about any of that; those attitudes are consistent with the interests of those that would accelerate neoliberal exploitation.
 
Alright, sneer if you like. Keep your site and your whining about the referendum.
No, sorry, you're right, General Veers. I should blindly believe every unlikely claim made on the internet, especially when it involves unverifiable claims from unverifiable third parties. Which army did you serve in, btw?

Oh, and I hate to spoil things but you'll need to back up your claim that I'm always 'whining about the referendum'? Could you direct me to a recent post from me to that effect please? Ta, awfully, sir.

*clips heels *salutes.

See my post above about my VPN costs. I'm not made of money.
 
The price of pomegranates seems have shot through the roof, fuck knows what i'm going to give Tarquin for his breakfast.

As above, I'm not made of money.
 
Our French holiday will cost more this year. But then last year felt like an incredible bargain. Fewer meals out will probably be hitting the local economy. Will be staying on camp more, eating supermarket meals. Maybe just one cheapo day out to a local city. Last year they were trying to reassure tourists with army everywhere, but I'm guessing French tourism will be taking a big hit.

You speak Polish then?
 
Rich tea biscuits. I just noticed that I can now dunk a whole rich tea biscuit (genuine McVitie’s ‘classic’) into my standard tea mug (the one I have been using ritually for the last 7+ years) straight out of the packet. Previously I had to partly dip an edge to nibble before the other 95% of the biscuit could be immersed in one go.

Appears to be brexscuit shrinkflation.
