In line with the popular (or should that be unpopular) media just making up stuff that can be blamed or attributed to Brexit, good and bad.

I'll start....

Since Brexit my socks have more holes in them, particularly around the toe area, I am fairly sure it s due to the wider economic concerns caused undoubtedly by Brexit. :rant:

Also since Brexit it has been unseasonably dry, probably due to the new cloud border we now have with France. Thank you Brexit. :)

Not a surprise, you are having to keep them for longer as the price of clothing is rising due to the collapse of the Pound and will rise further post-Brexit......

TV Series that insist on going on after they should have called it a day on a high eg. Cold Feet and The Fall. Trying to prove the quality of Brit progs v all the high quality Nordic and European stuff.

I blame the flipping Brexiteers.
 








Fruit farmers in Kent demanding that the government come up with a relaxation of the rules restricting non-EU immigration to compensate for the inevitable decline in the number of Eastern Europeans willing to move to Kent to pick fruit.

Ridiculous? But true.

Would this be the same media that across the board didn't mention any of the possible economic repercussions during the six months prior to the referendum - and just talked about immigrants? Sounds like they have got it wrong both ways.

They just need to bus in loads of unemployed Mackems, Welsh and Cornish who have signed their own death warrants...

A ridiculous thing you can attribute to Brexit is the national outbreak of burying heads in sand; let's all pretend that everything will be just fine...

This joke wasn't funny the first time.

I'll go: A massive increase in the number of people making stupid jokes that trivialise the hardship of people who are actually losing out because of Brexit.
short term yes, unfortunately that was going to happen with change, THE EU IS DYING ON IT'S FEET un electable bureaucrats telling us how to run our lives !! couldn't make it up
