why are they using dollars like it’s real money, not pounds.

Because pounds stop being real money in January.

Pounds is already a good name because in January if you want a loaf of bread they'll have to weigh your money like in Venezuela

lol everyone who understands the Tories mainland side hates their guts and even the right-wingers are willing to compromise on austerity as long as it pisses off the Tories

we're living through an unprecedented event of the EU as a whole agreeing on something without a need to coax everyone with threats of paperwork

i think whenever the real deadline is (which according to what some eu ministers are saying can be later than sunday) the eu will offer their current proposal + 1 fish and boris will accept and sell it like the biggest victory since world war 2 with the help of the telegraph and the daily mail

i would like to add to this prediction that the deal will be "agreed" today so that they can have triumphant front pages in the sunday papers

The Tories are loving up the covid response to try and distract from Brexit and loving up the Brexit negotiations to distract from the covid response so everything's just gotten worse and worse over the last month until we wake up on 1st Jan, there's no distractions anymore and we murder all Tories.

One of the fun parts of the Covid Brexit is that in a normal situation, with Hard Brexit approaching, people and companies could've taken steps to prepare. Like, companies could crank up production now to send to fill up their warehouses overseas so they would still be able to get product to overseas clients while the ports are all hosed up. But because of Covid, production has been massively hosed up. So when Hard Brexit hits they will have way less product sitting in overseas warehouses than normal.

The UK voted for Brexit before the US elected Trump and will only finally Brexit within the last month of Trump's presidency. Say what you will, but at least we got our stupid decision out of the way already.

I think you'll find that the stupid decisions by the ruling class have barely even begin in both our countries but definitely the UK.
