Brexit is destroying Britain

Have you really got nothing better to do than go trawling around for quotes from a kids TV programme from 46 years ago to try and deflect an unpleasant truth about the EU

TBH, it’s a bit of a job to fill your days, farming in France, they just keep sending us money for no apparent reason, so not really much work to do 🤷‍♂️

The unpleasant truth is the UK has shot itself in the foot and the dawning realisation is painful.
Even the Telegraph readers are voting it was a mistake.
It's easier to fool people than convince them they have been fooled .

Rishis performance this morning was beyond a joke. Puppet on an erg string. Will they continue to let him be the patsy?
 
Oh I'm sorry I thought you did after the paragraph break.
I should have realised it wasn't your style. Tough you did find it intelligent. 😉
The point is, most intelligent remain voters have worked out we are not going back into the EU, so if you want what's best for the country you make the new situation work. If you don't want what's best for the country you moan and try and cause as much division as possible. Which are you?

Great post. In contrast earlier this morning I wrote an email to a client copied to his land agent highlighting the reduction in BPS now working through the system. Was in connection with current Stewardship scheme which expires end of this year and a replacement. From £50k payment 2020 plus Stewardship, be £31k in 2023. Stewardship doesn't recover it. The phasing out of BPS just starting to impact. Tenant farm.

Yes. Let's rejoin the single market.
By far the best option.

It all depends how much you are prepared to give up for short term money. Being absorbed into a EU super state is to high a price for most people

Well both really AP. You are correct I doubt in my lifetime UK will rejoin the EU. Cannot see that Boat coming into harbour. But maybe a different relationship with the EU is required to the one we have had pit in place by this Conservative government that has spent the past 6 years in perpetual civil war and that has driven the Brexit relationship adopted. If (and I say if as I am to thick and lack the understanding to know) a different relationship is best in the long term then our country should accept and adapt. And as you say the Remoaners should forget remoaing and get behind Brexit it is helpful if Leavers who now consider the Brexit we have is not what they expected nor want come out into the open and say so. Then the country can have a debate about what it does want for Brexit. And if that relationship is different to what the ERG/ConKip Conservative Party negotiated then hopefully another political party will discuss that with the EU and if can come to some agreement place that before the electorate and then the electorate can decide. Cheers.

'Most' is quite a subjective word AP. It was too much for some (another subjective word) but most? Love a bit of semantics. Maybe we posting on this thread can do a side game of Scrabble! You can tell the dark nights are still with us. Once we get to Spring and the lawns need cutting we will ease off a bit maybe!!

two strange implications here…🤔
1: that you have a relationship with the EU
2: that you have a government
