SMX11 Posted 25 July 2018 Share Posted 25 July 2018 I think the "We will run out of food" argument has to be the biggest load a rubbish I have heard so far. Talk about desperation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Talk about desperation. It's also an argument that is in your head. Nobody else is making it. The government are planning on suspending customs checks so we can get food into the country without it being ruined whilst caught up in tailbacks at the border. But the fact we will need to suspend customs checks to do this just shows how little control we're taking back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Talk about desperation. There might be a temporary disruption while we change over but I can't see it lasting more than a couple of weeks. there are thousands on containers coming from non EU countries every week and they don't seem to have any problems.

Funny how the decision to hold a referendum came within a month of new EU laws being passed which would stop some of the ways of hiding wealth.

Although the idea some countries may choose to withhold medicine and food if they don't get their own way probably explains a lot as to why we are leaving this thing in the first place. Matt, with all due respect, your continued and fervent defence of this farce is borderline embarrassing. I am paraphrasing to a certain extent, but you know full well that both of those sentiments are true. As Ealing says, Davis said almost exactly that back in 2016, and Raab admitted on Tuesday to the select committee that they're making preparations in the event of disruption to food supplies. In the 21st Century. The working classes were preyed upon by a campaign fronted by politicians who prioritised their vanity and their ambition over the interests of the country, were not at all honest with the electorate, and now even the biggest c**ts of them all like Rees-Mogg have abandoned the notion that the UK will be better off after Brexit. By his own admission, even if it happens, the likes of you and I will either be in old age or dead by the time we see a Brexit dividend. When pressed, morons like him and even the Prime Minister just resort to the same meaningless, unfalsifiable platitudes. There are two options: the much-maligned Chequers Deal, or jumping off the cliff without a deal. As it stands at the moment the future looks bleak. It's well known there'll be huge effects on manufacturing industries, the service sector and effects on the provision of basic public services... And the already fanciful claims from Brexiteers that "It'll all be fine," "we'll keep our sovereignty and negotiate our own trade deals!" are becoming less believable by the day.

But I wouldn't vote for this current Brexit deal based on the Chequers plan. As I've consistently stated, soft Brexit is the worst of both Worlds. It leaves you still subject to the rules without having the benefits of pursuing independent trade. Rees-Mogg hasn't abandoned the notion the UK will be better off either as far as I am aware.

NOBODY. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
