Maybe a 'compliment' would be a better choice?
It seems almost beyond belief that some posters on here would write, and presumably believe the old false cliches that 'Brexit is done' and 'it's time to move on' (even if we were inclined to)?
What on earth do they mean? It's just stunningly facile comment.
How can such vacuous pronouncements have any veracity considering our current relationships with Ireland, Scotland, the USA and the EU?

And yet more completely meaningless (and misspelt) twaddle
But whilst you're on the Brexit thread, on the actual subject of the thread
What do you think should replace the Northern Ireland Protocol that you, an ardent Unionist
, campaigned and voted for and have now decided that you don't want ? Or was that a 'high level treaty negotiation' that you didn't and still don't understand ?

Still awaiting something - anything! - of substance to be lobbed over from that side of the fence. It doesn't seem to have progressed much since the days of the 'undemocratic loons' or '5th Columnists' insults..
The latest Cummings' disclosures reveal that our beloved leader simply didn't understand the way that a Customs Union works and when the penny dropped couldn't really deal with it. This kind of beggars belief - until you realise the calibre of the person we are dealing with, and then it all falls into place. Oh well, it's only the nation's economy that will tank, so nothing to worry about. At least it won't let down his political base because 98% of them didn't understand the way a Customs Union works anyway..

I think you will find that what they actually mean is
It has become blindingly obvious that I didn't have any idea what I was voting for, have made a complete tit of myself and would prefer that you didn't keep highlighting it.
Further to that, I still don't understand why Johnson can't implement his 'Oven ready Good deal' with the Northern Ireland Protocol and import controls to 'take back control' and 'Get Brexit done' or why he keeps on trying to restart the Brexit negotiations all over again. Now where are my crayons
Or something along those lines

Bloody Brexit indeed... it's concerning, and for those who have a dark sense of humour also amusing, that so many deluded Brexit lovers still not have clocked how badly things have been going.... Good old Jefferson!
Still, ultimately it's not what others tell you so much as what you tell yourself....

Exactly, Fruit picking, Food preparation, Care Homes, Hospitality, Catering, HGV drivers, there are hundreds of thousands of minimum wage 'careers' for a West Durrington Train driver with their own caravan and a bit of ambition

Is summary Brexit this year has cost the government £30B and they put taxes up £30B in the latest budget
I thought that was project fear?
Apparently there is someone called Jefferson who maintains the 'commit to believing in Brexit Britain; we will thrive' line.... and there are people (admittedly dwindling in numbers) who so much want to believe it that they celebrate their glorious ignorance on here!

Channel 4 this evening 20.30, 'Dispatches: Did Brexit Work for Business?' Looking forward to the in-depth interviews with our very own Footie Genius, Baker Lite and other experts.

Jefferson_MFG, has actually been set up by Stuart Whitehead, the failed recruiter from the manufacturing industry who is now trying to make his name as a 'Social media influencer' by running a Twitter account to re-publish every marketing release from that sector. It's the same few manufacturing stories regurgitated over and over again (well that's marketing
) but to be fair, Whitehead seems to be doing a far better job in marketing than when he was in recruitment (damning with faint praise).Of course, it has absolutely nothing to do with Brexit (either for or against), but the very simple marketing one liners seem, unsurprisingly, to appeal to [MENTION=35289]Baker lite[/MENTION]

Thanks for the information; it explains a lot.
Do you think Baker lite
1) doesn't know this
2) doesn't believe it
3) doesn't understand it
OR
4) knows it, believes it and is just trolling?
Personally I think s/he's quite vulnerable to this sort of scam.....

The focus was on goods was it just show how thin the TCA is, the Netherlands as I've always said will be eating our lunch
Need another episode on services, that's where we're really screwed ourselves

The big problem about Johnson's rushed TCA (that he never understood) is its really bad for UK exporters that are in trading businesses, UK is excellent in this area. For example, something that is designed in UK, made in China and then sold in over the the EU from the UK, in many cases a tariff is now applied
Solution - Set up business in Rotherdam, employ EU staff and pay Netherlands corporation tax
The Dutch are rubbing their hands, Brexit is good for someone.
Countries trade most with those on their doorstep, the Vote Leave cabal either still doesn't understand or pretends it doesn't understand. In the meantime a lower tax take and higher taxes. We'll be poorer...
