That would be funny if the overall situation was funny....but it isn't.

Which supermarket is it ?

If its close to me , I will go and take a look myself . 

Sometimes there are delays with deliveries , but its wrong to suggest there are mass food shortages and all the supermarket shelves are empty , even your photos show shelves that are half full

  • This is what 'we' voted for. This is what 'we' wanted. No point in getting upset, then.

  • UK citizens can now only stay in EU countries for 90 days in a 180 day period. So EU immigration has to check each passport to see how many days left. Plus passports must be valid for at least 6 month

Yes, people buy things , then the shelves become empty and at night the shelves are refilled  ready for the next day

Yes, I am in the U.K now and I haven't heard the mention of Brexit , everyone seems to have moved on and just getting on with life

I'm in the UK now and have been since March 2022, no problems in Aldi, Tesco and Morrisons in my town. Always been able to get exactly what I require.

Probably not close to you:

 

"There are empty shelves in supermarkets in many Counties .

 

Here in Canada for example , empty shelves in supermarkets

 

Its a World problem caused by Covid and Ukraine . "

Interesting question. He just mentioned he is in UK, 1 hour ago said 'here in Canada ...".

No, supermarkets don't wait with refilling till the shelves are empty.

I did  mean "Here in Canada" as a reference to where the shop in the link that I posted  is , rather than where I am myself .( *Here in this shop in Canada*, is what I meant ) 

  I am in the U.K , where is the empty shelved supermarket?  so I can get a second opinion .

My local supermarket refills the shelves at night , they have delivery time  restrictions and can only get deliveries at night and refill the shelves when deliveries arrive (at night)

Yes, or get a visa, now where do I have to do that.....????

I'd hazard a guess that if you want a visa for say Spain, a good place to start looking would be the local Spanish embassy/ consulate.

Why would the French deliberately create the queues?

Because they're like that. You'd have to ask one of them for the full details though. Why didn't they come in to work? Why haven't they fixed the glitch? Will they be going on again strike soon? Maybe it's all part of  plan for their own working conditions - who knows?

You mean all those 40 or so years the EU was really plotting to break up the UK? It is to laugh.

Dont worry, we have plenty of space here to post the full graph 

 

EU budget 2017: Net contributions/receipts. .  .

 

But apparently not enough to reproduce the more telling per capita version which shows how much is contributed per citizen. For example, The Netherlands, with about 1/4 the UK population, contributed half as much in toto. Germany, Europe's biggest economy, also giave more per capita than did the UK.

I am struggling to remember the E.U situation , as it was years ago

The border officials are not on strike or in dispute. And why aren't nationals of other countries complaining?

Which would be money effectively from the UK in any case, like all the other money distributed by the EU, who don't really have any of their own. Just another EU tactic encourage the break up our union, which is what the EU wanted ultimately, and yet another solid reason to leave. 

Come to think of it, doesn't that make the case even worse for the UK? It's saving all that money but can't even match the contributions that came from the EU.

So you managed to take a snap at the shelf stackers' tea break, or just before they were cleaning fridges. Its all still spin to try and portray doom and gloom.

I did accidently quote this post in a reply in a   post above .

I did mean to quote another post and reply to that .

Not sure how that happened

Nothing came from the EU. It was only a small fraction of our own massive contributions being allowed to return for EU vanity projects.

It should be abundantly clear now that Brexit has not provided the much-lauded benefits some believed it would ....

Please show some patience. It will take time as this article shows (although I wouldn't discount the strong probability that this article is more fiction peddled by the bias left-wing media).

Not only do you accuse the French of all sorts of grave derelictions of duty, but you misspell their language as well?

C'est une déclaration de guerre! (This means war!)

Tell the Welsh that those were vanity projects.
