The details of our world beating erasmus replacement have been announced. This is why people are angry about brexit, opportunities ripped out of the hands of the next generation for pretend sovereignty. Good work brexiteers. ***.

 

 

I got lucky because of essentially something similar. Spent a year on placement learning / refining my German at a textile factory on the German/Polish border to the point I work as a German to English translator now (and indeed all my other jobs have required German language proficiency). In other words, it worked wonderfully for me.

And now it's much harder to get that.

no, it was scare mongering nonsense from over 50 years ago that was easily disproved at the time

now why not tell us the name of one of these countries which the UK can now trade with, that it could not before Jan 2021

or are we to assume that it was just another in your long line of lies

50 YEARS AGO ? Try finding that they disproved it ! 

We can now trade with countries that the EU does not put tariffs on, cheaper all around

Given it was  a pack of lies then I am certain it was disproved then as it can be now

as to your second line you are clearly not aware if WTO rules  ie most favoured nation

which mean whatever 'advantages are offered to one country have to be offered to all - which won;t mean cheaper goods or trade but lowering if standards and UK companies not being able to compete

you clearly are a complete idiot

[SwindonCanary 455]

WRONG , you idiot !

OK, I apologise, you're not a liar you're a simpleton.

For dyed in the wool Brexiteers like @SwindonCanary it doesn't really matter whether what they post or repost is true as long as it supports their argument. Make of that what you will.

I think most of us came to that conclusion years ago! Brexit never was argument over facts but an emotional response.

Oh dear! Another roll-over of a deal we already had with Cameroon when we were in the EU. We actually only sell £50m of goods to them. Boy! you are so damn gullible.

Thats quite a few bannanas, worth nearly half the amount the Brexidiot government is giving the fishing industry Brexit decimated.

I think that's the reason behind the government's plan to build a new coal mine.

What you don't understand is that all these deals are money in the governments pockets, whilst we were in the EU we never saw it. Who's gullible now ?

Are you posting these obviously stupid lies just to wind people up, or are you really that thick?

[SwindonCanary 455]

how's that not true , explain 

[BigFish 1,986]

It seems to me that the Brexiteers consider Covid their get out of jail free card. The UK fishing and logistics industries are in dissaray, trade is massively down as is GDP and government is cutting day to day expenditure to the bone. All Covid.

In response all the Wiltshire Wonder can come up with is that we will continue to get the tariff free bannanas we got as a member state of the EU.

There must be something, anything they can come up with that looks like a way forward.

Surely?

FFS! You explain to us how according to you the £50m in trade exporting to the Cameroon all ended up in the hands of the EU and not in the hands of the exporting business itself, and some of that in the hands of the UK exchequer via tax etc. Explain to us what "mechanism" the EU used to prevent that money reaching the UK.
