He simply does not have the mental capacity or inclination to debate seriously or consider what is being explained to him. All he has is a hatred for the EU because his simple mind has been brainwashed by right wingers. He’s just a hateful, lying and sad little man. If Nadine Dorries was a man she would be Swindon Canary. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

A Load of Squit 5,208 Posted February 6, 2022 I see the ungrateful French are spurning our generous offer to let them sell their Champagne in pint bottles. Well I for one will be boycotting the fizzy white whiners. Another Brexit triumph allowing us to choose what quantities we buy our alcohol in. The freedoms just keep coming. I'm looking forward to be able to buy carpet using Cubits. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm sure I heard something about getting rid of red tape, I must've been listening to a liar. There was reason why we joined the common market, EEC and Thatcher then promoted/created the single market. Good hard nosed economic sense.

I'm sure I heard something about getting rid of red tape, I must've been listening to a liar. It's perfectly fine Squit! the tape is no longer communist red, but now a patriotic red white and blue, so we can all be proud that Brexit has created massive amounts of proper British paperwork for businesses' to enjoy. That will show those EU friction-free traders how good honest British paperwork can do bureaucracy way beyond anything those commie bast*ards can contrive. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Herman 9,819 Posted February 8, 2022 Just when you think the clown car of a government has run out of wonky wheels another one turns up. There are rumours that there will be a new Minister of Brexit Opportunities. And it may even be Rees Mogg. 🤨 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

horsefly 4,310 Posted February 8, 2022 Famously Rees-Mogg's first Brexit decision was to take the opportunity to move the HQ of his own company to Dublin to exploit the EU single market. So can we assume that will be the sort of opportunity he will recommend to other businesses? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My company runs logistics operations for several large blue-chip companies, so we're frequently exporting goods and trying to get them into USA, China, Russia etc (and now Europe). So it always amazed me with the portrayal of the EU because it wasn't perfect, but literally nothing matches the pedantry of customs officials, and our clients are invariably paying customs brokers to get them through the minefield in the first place. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

horsefly 4,310 Posted February 9, 2022 A tip-off for our splendid new Brexit opportunities minister. The Road Haulage Association's chief has warned lorry drivers to get used to 4 hour plus traffic queues at Dover; surely there's an opportunity here for "Rees-Bog portaloos" to be provided every 500 yards along Kent's highways and byways.
