Why is it needed? Nothing to worry about.. it's project fear according the Bigdave and co. It is a fake. The Remainers held dibs on Project Fear and it did not work. This is project Brexit Is Here, and there's nothing more the Remainers can do about it. Although it's more likely to be a new drive-through Maccy D. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post tribalfusion001 Posted July 13, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted July 13, 2020 Judging by the state of the high streets up and down the country, Brexit will finish the place off. Nothing has picked up since non essential shops opened, pubs are 50% down on takings from this time last year and then there is the empty buses and trains going around. Boris and Gove wants companies to go back to offices to save the economy that relies on offices, but companies are saying employees can carry on working from home. The government did an excellent job of scaring so many people in not going out that they are still staying in. The social distancing rules in pubs are now just annoying to the point of not worth going to them, 2 people max in the toilets, one way system, smoking areas laid out and have to stand in them, if a friend stands at your table having a chat they are told to go back to their table or sit down. The economic impact of the lockdown is terminal in the high streets and offices until people shake off the malaise and stop being scared! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was said before the general election with many of the British public basing their vote on Conservatives = Leave, Labour = Remain and look how that turned out, biggest landslide victory for the tories ever. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Story on the BBC rolling news feed, a coffee shop in mall took £1.20 all day on Sunday. Multiply that all over the country, especially in areas around those offices that are mostly empty and that's the state of the service industry. Last week I took a train journey to get some supplies for making Thai food and the car parks next to the stations were about 10% full at most. I live in a commuter belt area 45 miles from London, these car parks were usually full pre covid. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post HauptmannUK Posted July 13, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted July 13, 2020 I have a family member over in Shrewsbury who has a business exporting premium lamb, beef and venison. Its sourced from mainly Welsh and Scottish farmers. This is top-quality stuff and nearly all goes to the EU. He employs 16 people and of course uses the services of a transport company to truck it to Europe. Right now, like a lot of exporters, he's at his wit's end. A no-deal would add 25% to his selling price and effectively put him out of business. He has had absolutely ZERO government information on how his business might have to operate under no-deal. There is no guidance, no forms exist. Nothing. He recently met with his local MP (a Conservative by the name of Dan Kawczynski) who is also a member of the ERG, and was basically assured that there WILL be a zero tariff deal with the EU, and not to worry. So what to believe? Today's news about the construction of massive customs installations makes me think the government is sure its going to be no-deal. Very worrying times for exporters. 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see someone else has produced a link to a poll of 1660 people from 2018 lol. A poll conducted by a Pro Remain group called Hope Not Hate. I see why you didn't want to show me your source now, how embarrassing ????. Yeah, let's ignore the 33,577,342 people who voted in the referendum because 1,062 of 1,660 people in a poll conducted by a Pro Remain Group want another vote 2 years later.

Popular Post tebee Posted July 14, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted July 14, 2020 So British companies are going to have to spend £7 billion a year to produce export documentation, the government is going to have to £3 billion a year processing that documentation On the other side of the channel EU companies are going to have to spend a similar preparing documentation of their exports to the UK. So £20 billion a year in extra costs most of which will be passed on to consumers - or rather more than the £350 million a week that leaving the EU was supposed to save us - so I guess the NHS won't be getting that boost it was promised. Leave was a con trick, smoke and mirrors to convince the gullible. 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You should have seen see the tail backs a glitch or industrial dispute could cause then - now we are talking 11500 trucks per day....and turning the A2 into a truck park the bits of paper wether in paper or bits (Judging be your post, I suppose you didn't understand that pun?) are still tax and duties that have to be paid. Iy is quite clear by the sudden purchase of this land that the government realise even if things run "smoothly" - the amount of tailbacks created at Dover etc are going to reflect incredibly badly on the government. On the upside, this is going to create thousands of jobs - bureaucrats - tp process all these bits. Edited July 14, 2020 by Airbagwill 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
