You didn't exclude the construction industry, so the only conclusion was that you included all jobs done by EU migrants. If you didn't mean that industry, and other skilled jobs, how do you suggest filling the labour shortages such industries currently suffer from; shortages which will be worse after Brexit as many of the vacancies do not fulfil the PBS visa requirements! didn,t know picking turnips was a skilled job,why don,t you give it a rest,you,re getting boring and it isn,t going to change the fact....we,re leaving. 3
Popular Post nauseus Posted July 20, 2020 Popular Post Posted July 20, 2020 2 hours ago, 7by7 said: So you have finally admitted that you were wrong and Health and Safety at work is an EU law; albeit reluctantly. Maybe the UK government would have made further improvements over tome, but, as you say, they didn't until the EU brought in EU wide regulations. Yes, of course EU roaming and the EHIC only apply to British citizens if we are in the EU! So after Brexit we'll lose those. So you consider the right to return goods as one of the 'nasty bits' of EU law that you would do away with; what else is on your list? What I've said is that the EU steal the hard work of others and adopt it as their own. The right to return goods is fine if they are faulty at purchase - that's it. You are just a hapless, hopeless troll. 3 1 1

Yes, a majority of 80. However, the vagaries of our first past the post system meant that despite polling only 43.6% of the vote, the Tories won 56% of the seats; hence their majority of 80. The people's vote lost. Even so concern over many matters among Tory backbenchers, notably Cummings influence and the handling of the pandemic and Brexit negotiations, means that majority may soon disappear. Nobody voted for a say on the final deal. 2

You had a choice of what Brexit you wanted, it was called 'Mays Deal' it was a remainers deal, it was not good enough for the remainers, they wanted it all, now they deserve nothing. You should be ashamed of dragging the will of 17.4 million through the mud, the remainers have done nothing but insulted and besmirched our country for the last four years, they should apologise, but of course they never will, they are too self righteous and Brexit is all about them and not our country. 5 1

As for any other benefits that may or may not happen, well that is for the future to see, not you, not me, to speculate on. A new beginning for the UK without being told what to do by folk with different attitudes.... You remind me of Corbyns brother Piers, and that's a compliment....????

Popular Post RuamRudy Posted July 21, 2020 Popular Post Posted July 21, 2020 Good to see our brave defenders of UK sovereignty last night voting to give it away to an unelected body.

Tory backbenchers defeated in attempt to put any post-Brexit trade deals through parliament MPs have defeated an attempt by Tory backbenchers to ensure parliament has a vote on any post-Brexit trade deal. An amendment to the Trade Bill currently going through the Commons would have given MPs and peers a say on any new agreement signed by the government. 5

Are you seriously suggesting that parliament has no role to play here? Should we drop all aspects of parliamentary scrutiny or just those that might hinder the obsessive ideological demands of those who back Brexit? At least we can drop this pathetic cry of sovereignty, not that anyone could actually describe it, but any claim that the objective of Brexit was to regain control will be rightly laughed out of the water. The clowns have been manipulated since day one, and now we are seeing their true might - they just roll over and let our corrupt and corrupted government do as they please. 5

Popular Post AndrewMciver Posted July 21, 2020 Popular Post Posted July 21, 2020 Don't give a <deleted> about Brexit, but what i do know is the pound has tanked. I was getting 55 Baht a few months before Brexit. I'm now getting 38. For that reason alone, Brexit is a pain. I talk to these xenophobic guys in Pattaya sometimes who love Brexit, yet they get strangely defensive and irritable when you talk about the currency. Brexit has hit tourists hard, and those expats living in Thailand. Yet these folk will still support it, blaming the Thai Baht, blaming Thai politicians for having the gall to keep their currency strong and not devalue it. Anything but Brexit. 6 1
