'Walt' E. Kurtz Posted January 20, 2019 #58 Share Posted January 20, 2019 You plonkers i knew it would cause more problems than you would actually benefit from leaving. Now people might not get their meds which is pretty serious. The finance centra will leave London and people loose their jobs from companies leaving England. Brexit wont fix immigrant problems and now IRA might find reasons to break their treaty ? Who knows it's all one huge mess i guess only time will tell. Good on ya!

There is absolutely no evidence whatsoever there will be food shortages, or Medicine shortages The premise is all based around delays at the border. how long do these people think the delays are going to be minutes, hours, days, months, years? When it comes to the UK's side there's going to be no delays on entering the UK. so whose going to delay or stop traffic on the EU's side? anyone tell us whose going to be stopping the traffic? When it comes to going back the other way - UK to Europe 80% of all lorries are foreign owned, so any delays or costs is going to disproportionately affect EU registered firms. then we have the fact that 3 out of every 4 lorries going back to Europe does so empty. So, someone somewhere please tell us why where going to have delays and which private enterprises, eg: be it food producers or Pharma companies have any of them said they will be unable to fulfil their contracts? please tell us who said that medication is going to be stopped/banned for export? Its absolutely bonkers the way people fall for such crap. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes it was kind of stupid of me to say that i wish Scotland left the UK what worries me is that countries in Eurupe is becoming more nationalistic and the nationalistic right wing parties is gaining more and more popularity and power across Europe. One of the main goals of the EU is to preserve the peace and as the world is right now its important that we work together.

Duke Wellington Posted January 20, 2019 #67 Share Posted January 20, 2019 I`m going to go against the prevailing flawed and biased logic and say we will boom following a hard Brexit. And it will undermine the trust the people have towards politicians. The remainers which to remain for ideological reasons and are convincing themselves any old bull that says Brexit will be a doomsday is true.

freetoroam Posted January 30, 2019 #75 Share Posted January 30, 2019 So the people buying these boxes, are they the ones who believe all our food comes from abroad? Lets stop sending lamb to saudi arabia and for the veggies here, start supporting the British farmers. We have too much tasteless tomatoes and fruit which goes bad before it ripens and tinned products from abroad. Maybe now the British people will start buying healthy fresh foods, because there is some rubbish on the supermarket shelves. Too much foriegn fruit and veg when we should be growing our a the correct time of the year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
