Popular Post JonnyF Posted September 24, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted September 24, 2020 This is simply a warning from Gove to wake people up to get their paperwork in order and to also expect some delays for the first couple of weeks. Entirely predictable that the sore, bitter, moaning losers would jump all over it ????. No pain, no gain. It's lucky these Remainers aren't in charge of our country if they'd hand over our sovereignty/liberty to avoid some short term inconvenience. Reminds me of The Dead Kennedy's satirical album title, "Give me convenience OR give me death" ????. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course, it would have been possible. That’s when you don’t put politics first. 6 hours ago, CG1 Blue said: If it was possible they would have been provided. It's not in the government's interests to have businesses fail. The government’s interest is political, and businesses are collateral damage in that game. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post OneMoreFarang Posted September 24, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted September 24, 2020 How many years did they have time to prepare for this? I just read an article about Dover. They are still waiting for the promised money which they need for all that new infrastructure which is supposed to be ready in 3 months.

If companies ignore the advice there will be hold ups. Why anti-Brexiters have to be such drama queens over simple advisory announcements I'll never know. Do you include the Conservative government as drama queens too? They are the ones who have bought a huge plot and changed the local planning laws so as to have a huge truck park at Ashford. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post grumpy 4680 Posted September 24, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted September 24, 2020 Nothing wrong with Brexit, just return to the way it was before joining the EU. Never had this chaos then, so it goes to prove the EU is deliberetly making things difficult, like they promised if we tried to leave. No matter what, Brits still want out of the corrupt EU, and regain its own Independence. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Couldn't see that little nugget anywhere on the site. If they were lost before January 2020, why were they still counted on UK payrolls in March 2020? That makes loads of sense 555. If we're looking at job losses since March 2020 (which is what the site is doing) then it's clear that most of the world is suffering from mass unemployment due to Brexit, including Thailand. Who would have thought Brexit would have such wide reaching effects. Or is there something else that happened in March 2020 that may have caused this. Hmmmm, let me think for a moment. The job losses from March 2020 to August 2020 are due to Corona Virus or the vote to leave in 2016? That's a tough one ????. You'll be blaming Brexit for 911 next.

If we've lost 436,000 jobs due to the vote to leave (voting, NOT actually leaving) then why has unemployment been consistently decreasing since the vote in 2016? https://www.statista.com/statistics/279898/unemployment-rate-in-the-united-kingdom-uk/ Specifically from 4.9% in 2016 to 3.8% in 2019. The 800,000 job losses after the vote in 2016 never happened. It was another Remainer lie. Assuming you can read graphs, please see below for the official stats. Also of interest is the increase in our first 10 years after joining in 1973. From 4% to 12%. Now that's an increase! Scotland beware (if they ever agree to take you).

candide Posted September 24, 2020 Share Posted September 24, 2020 @Chomper Higgot @JonnyF I think the differences between the number of jobs lost and the unemployment rate is due to the fact that smallbusinessprices.co only counts jobs lost, without taking into account the fact that some (most) people have found a job elsewhere. It's different from unemployment rate, which is a balance between job lost and recruitment. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's different from unemployment rate, which is a balance between job lost and recruitment. Indeed. And so typical of Remainers to only include one side of the argument (jobs lost) without including all the jobs that replaced them which led to an overall decrease in unemployment % since the vote in 2016. They'll probably be back in 2024 when the number finally reaches 800,000, despite those 800,000 being replaced by 1,200,000 new jobs 555. "See, I told you the vote to leave would result in 800,000 job losses, is this what you voted for?" ???? A bit like RookieScot claiming that tariffs on goods from the UK to the EU is great for the EU ("free money" for the EU in his opinion), but simultaneously proclaiming that tariffs on goods going the other direction is an absolute disaster for UK consumers ????.
