Nothing wrong with protectionism EVERY country does it in some way shape or form... Your trying to extend the point to suit yourself and its petty. 

As are the continuous attacks on the English for matters involving the entire Kingdom.

Is there something wrong saying the fact that Brexit was England's decision. It's now time for the brexiteers to own brexit. Brexiteers won and brexit happened. How long more brexiteers need to get over the fact that they actually won? 

 

Being a leader comes with responsibilities for one's people. It's now time to fulfil the promises brexiteers made, how wonderful the life after brexit is going to be. 

 

So, dear brexiteers. It's now time for you to offer bits of your wisdom and guide the rest towards the Shangri La of Brexitland. It's now time for you to shine and lead the way.

 

So, practical solutions?

The best chocolate eclairs are made by Mr Kipling in Yorkshire. Exceedingly good cakes.

That's all good until the point you try to export English cakes to the rest of the world. Italian cakes yes, Thai cakes - oh yess, Indian cakes - sometimes. But English cakes? 

 

Now add reprisal tariffs to the English cakes and make billions selling the cakes all around the world. The world consumers are going to be thrilled!

 

That's basically the hard Brexit what is coming in 2021.

We are talking about passports .

The UK should make British passports .

That is my one and only point

I like this guy's happy face. He is very happy about this. Confident. Cool.

Better still if they were made in England. Do you remember when everything you bought was labelled "Made in England". Those were the days.....

 

Better still if everything was labelled "Made in London and the Home Counties"

The Home Counties!  What an expression. As a kid I never thought consciously about it, you don't when it's your own language, but being away so long, I start to wonder about expressions and idioms, especially when foreigners ask you about their origins.

The origin of the term is uncertain but, to quote Wikipedia, it may go back to Tudor times, referring to those counties so near London that it was possible for civil servants and politicians to have their country homes, and still be able to travel into London without excessive delay when they were needed.

As a northerner I always felt excluded, inferior to those wealthy, comfortable,southern snobs.

To quote Wikipedia again: The home counties have been characterised as being "inhabited on the whole by 'nice', comfortable, and conformist middle-class people" (1987)[9] exemplified by the county of Surrey which has been described as possessing quintessential home counties characteristics of "a comfortable plasticized commuterland with respectable villas and neatly mown lawns interspersed with patches of mild scenery.

I'm sure you'll get your Made in England - English passports back soon enough once all the Brexit aftermath is finally settled.

You aren't selective lad. You moan (or should that be pontificate) about everything or more accurately everyone. No one thinks that you are what you think you are.

 

Oh what gift the giftie gie us.....

Bendy bananas will be back in 'bedroom funbox' only after the end of the transition period.

I agree, brexiteers here are not leaders, but followers. 

 

But being a follower for so long, brexiteers must have required their leaders to say out loud practical answers and solutions to the problems the leaders have pointed out.

 

If brexiteers have not scrutinised their leaders thoughts and solutions, then brexitism is just a cult.

 

Is brexitism a cult?

I don't think Mr Kipling ever made eclairs, though he did venture into French fancies and Battenberg cakes.

Quite the European, wuz our Mr Ridley.
