oliwan posted:yeah I saw this one and it's funny, I'm just waiting for the first phone bill to come in from some of the pensioners in spain who didn't realise it was because of EU regulations that they didn't pay roaming charges when using their UK mobile contracts abroad honestly, watching the lives of UK pensioners living in Spain fall apart is definitely one of the biggest upsides to brexit

Communist Thoughts posted:The yanks should see what we post about them The UK has a furlough scheme that pays up to 80% of the salary of anyone who unable to work because of the virus. It's was capped at £2.5k a month. I think it's been reduced to £2k now. I'd take that over a one-off stimulus cheque for less than a week's salary.

Hake is a perfectly good white fish and I would bet the average Briton could not tell the difference between cod and hake when it's been battered and deep fried.

Cod and Haddock are more bland in flavour and therefore far better suited to our British palates.

Finally free of the eu's jackboot at the average joe's neck. Better to die standing than live on your knees. A man can only put up with so much until he fights back. Better dead than red. The oppressed masses will rise up. You can't keep the average stiff down forever. Finally taking back control!

Everyone knew the summer was a lull in the storm before a second winter wave and the government loving subsidised a load of super spreader events to get it started. Even for the Tories, even for Boris Johnson that was one of the most baffling own goals ever carried out.

They're Brexit supporters suddenly getting owned, and they're posting. They're not posts about Brexit supporters getting owned, and this deliberate misunderstanding of what you were asking for supplies adequate comedy.

serious talk tho that strange loving vat tax seems tailor made to gently caress over companies that relied on smaller, more frequent shipments while larger companies can afford to either soak the loss or make bigger shipments to mitigate it

i’m sure there is an argument that now it will be financially viable to now build widget factories in the u.k. it’s complete pie in the sky fantasy because capitalism doesn’t work that way, but it’s what brexiteers believe

You couldn't even run a sex arse factory in Brexit due to labor shortages. But even if you could, the labor costs and safety standards would make british made sex arses an unaffordable luxury reserved only for the rich and famous.

hobbesmaster posted:what does a collapsed justice system mean in practice Given sovereignty of parliament nowhere near as much as it would in the US or most other places. Mainly it means that you have to wait a really long time for someone to hear your case, to the point you can't really get justice even for blatant violation of the law, particularly non-criminal ones.
