The mess that the UK now finds itself struggling through is a direct result of Remainers, whether they be Tory, Labour, right wing, left wing or non descript. Who refuse to accept:

 

A Referendum result.

 

That MP's voted by a margin of 4 - 1 to invoke article 50.

You would have the same mess if all those people you blame would be just sitting back doing nothing. The reason for this mess is that they accepted a referendum by invoking article 50. You would not have this mess if they didn’t invoke article 50 and just gave a damn about the referendum (or didn’t hold the referendum in the first place). Please stick to the fact.

Tell me what stuff can you grow that will be ready for harvest in March and April (presuming you have access to land).

As a life long vegetable gardener I’d be interested to hear.

No need, Thailand has warehouses full of rice, the British government could buy it and ship it to the UK, 'just in case'.

Forging new links between Thailand and Britain.

And just who is going to grow the beans for you to sprout ?

Brexit crash,

Do they mean the UK falling apart or the EU falling apart?

Can't see the EU agreeing to any deal, as it would mean the end of the EU, once the UK exits, more will go.

No point wasting time making trade deals with an organization that will be gone in 2-5 years.

I think the same why is th UK even concerned about trade deals with the EU. It will be history or toothless in the near future.

  Why bother to deal with them just leave and watch them tear each other apart till it is done and many have left it.

Brexiteers have been predicting the demise of the EU for years now. The reality on the ground doesn't seem to reflect that, no matter how much you wish it to be true.

In the near future?? Is that before or after the UK loses Scotland and Northern Ireland?? ?

Britain has held informal talks about joining a flagship Pacific trade group, in an audacious bid to kick-start exports after Brexit. The proposal, being developed by Liam Fox’s Department for International Trade, would make the UK the first member of the Trans-Pacific Partnership that does not border the Pacific Ocean or the South China Sea.

Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull said the UK has had preliminary discussions about joining the 11-nation free trade deal.

 

"You can see the attraction of it to the UK, because if they were to join the TPP they would be entering into a high quality trade agreement with 11 other countries in one hit," he told reporters in London on Thursday local time.

Remainers still think that the UK Government is sitting around with their thumbs up their @rses doing nothing.

 

Why ?

 

Quite simple. Anything that appears to be good news about Brexit burns their eyeballs out so they avoid it like the plague.

 

Only doom & Gloom news is safe for them to read

There's more chance of NI being sacrificed via Brexit than Scotland being separated.

If I could vote to dump Scotland and NI, I would.

Both worthless money pits, the EU can have them.

 

Maybe we could work out a Brexit deal where we give the EU Scotland and NI, instead of money.

And the remainers could all move there.

How do you see that happening? The demand for reunification doesn't seem to be there as far as I can see, and I am not sure that messy would even come close to describing what might happen if the UK withdrew from NI.

 

It would be interesting, however, to know what price our Brexit supporting friends here think is too high to pay for Brexit.

To be fair I sincerely hope it doesn't happen, however with PMTM nothing would surprise me.

Rather intrigued, Barnier/Raab re-emphasised what's known that 80% has been agreed yet he rejects another UK proposal connected via the white paper.

Quite frankly, the Chequers paper is a crock of shiote & May is too arrogant or ignorant to listen until the 1922 committee step in.

As Tebee clearly pointed out, to make bean sprouts first you need the beans.

Unless of course Brexit doesn't mean just Brexit but also magic beans.

Remedial reading, anyone?

I'm not sure what blame I deserve, I didn't vote.

But I would vote in a second vote, and that vote would be to leave.

 

I also have a leaving plan, we stop paying the EU money, end of.

No need for any trade deal with the EU, plenty of other countries to trade with.

No brain today?

I hope that they are not the only ones growing it because that works out at about 2g per person per week.

400 tonnes produced weekly in the UK. I think that probably covers most, if not all, the UK's weekly bean sprout needs.

 

Making a complete mockery of both of you.

 

What else can one expect from complete neg - heads.??

You seem completely impervious to understanding the difference between beans and bean sprouts. Let's make it simple for you. To make bean sprouts, first you need the beans. The beans don't thrive in British soil so they come from elsewhere. They are then imported into the UK. In the UK these beans are sprouted. And that's how you get bean sprouts.

 

EDIT: I just found this website for children that might be helpful in giving you some idea of what bean sprouts are and how they are made:

"The mung bean is mainly cultivated in India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Nepal, Sri Lanka, China, Korea, South Asia and Southeast Asia."

The beans aren't grown in the EU, so there shouldn't be a problem getting them.

Nothing, which begs the question why British farmers can’t find British land workers to pick them.

Now that's a good reason not to worry about the bean sprout supply.

The answer: Romanians work for less than minimum wage, in a form of slavery in the UK.

Farmers don't want to pay British land workers.

 

It's a vicious cycle of welfare for Brits, illegal foreign workers who are exploited and greed.

Oh the irony of it.....
    

 It’s hard now to recall, but until quite recently many people thought Brexit would start a stampede out of the EU, after the British vote, Europhobe politicians Marine Le Pen and Geert Wilders schemed to duplicate the result in France and the Netherlands. In October 2016, Britain’s Daily Express newspaper chirruped: “Europe is in trouble as across the continent countries are gearing up to hold their own referendums on membership of the superstate.”

 

 But since then, the risk has all but vanished, that’s largely because we now know one thing about Brexit: it will be a failure, in the sense that it will make Britons’ lives worse, Brexit has saved the EU.

So a fantasy map (in the same way nobody will vote for Brexit) and the opinions of those profiting from remaining is all that counts as information these days?

Just for the record it was tebee who turned bean sprouts into beans for you to sprout. My jam jar has always given me good service over the years in propagating 'bean sprouts,' and as for harvesting I generally find a decent pair of scissors will suffice.
