Brexit/No Deal 'planning' must be a thing to behold in government at the moment. A mixture of Yes Minister, headless chickens and Corporal Jones. Hopefully there's a The Thick of it Special in production.A shame Boris Johnson is no longer in post to fix things ...

By no means, the royal navy would still be steaming round the world, taking on the occasional trawler as an homage to the imperial Russian navy

We could still send Prince Philip as a goodwill ambassador to smooth things out though, now that he's giving up driving and will be itching for a new pastime...A shame Boris Johnson is no longer in post to fix things ...
Or maybe they didn't take a 5% hit after all and it was statistical noise. Fuck knows tbh.

True and however many jobs are lost due to Brexit I can predict there will still be full employment in the Houses of Commons and Lords. The MPs and sitting Lords for clarity.

Of course.
If you were to measure brexit purely in numbers of jobs lost/created...it's already a disaster.
And we're not even talking about automation/internet job losses that are crushing jobs all over the west...this is self-inflicted. It's insane.

probably before. It there's a crash out, the pound's value will drop - meaning foreign holidays will be more expensive.

What's wrong with Margate; you enemy of the people.

My family lives in Spain not Margate, I could ask them to move I guess, if I believe in Brexit etc

One for the historians: is this the ultimate in terms of 'Parliament Being Totally Shit at Sorting Stuff Out'?
Parliament has had its chaotic moments before - Repeal of the Corn Laws/Famine (split the Tories), Irish Home Rule (took decades and several bills) Leaders/PMs getting booted out (Chamberlain for example). But has there ever been anything as hopeless as the last 2 years in terms of complete inability to agree anything?

House of Lords reform
But the last two years show how utterly inept politicians of all stripes are and fill the heart with apprehension that these soon to be former people won't be able to construct the world's premier infrastructure project, the grytviken - buenos aires friendship bridge
They'll need to be at the peak of their game for that

Part-time employment, surely?
I watched it <

The word 'Brexit' doesn't seem to have been programmed into youtube's auto-captioning system yet.
