Default Re: Leave it on the shelf

my point is that during the referendum the uk public were not told about this 'deal'. the uk public told their government to leave the eu, not to come up with a deal. if the uk public had wanted that we would have employed chris tarrant to do it for us. its politicians milking the goat for their bum chums.


btw just wait till you see the price of 'white goods' next year, a £300 washing machine will be £400+ and the gov will blame covid.....

If EU produced and no deal, then likely. The UK has signed a continuity deal with Sth Korea so their prices shouldn't change (if you can get them through the ports delays). Beko products I think are Turkish which is outside the EU.

Regarding fish, some of the bigger trawlers are Dutch but have been registered in Hull...

Somebody is going to make money out of the Brexit debacle, but it won't be us.

The public signed a blank contract, T&Cs to be completed later by politicians.

The Cameron government did their best to persuade everyone to vote remain, to the extent of spending £9 million on leaflet to every household telling them to, and they accused leave of exceeding spending limits...... it was a massive shock to our politicians and EU when leave won...

^^^ this. Like with every General Election - they are all a wish list, not promises or a binding contract to which they are held accountable, or have any repercussions from.
