There's a reddit thread where people try to get leavers to seriously tell their reasons for voting that way. After skimming it the top reasons are Sovereignty Immigration (poles) The EU being a super state/federation and not being democratic The UK being a money big for the poor countries such as Romania and greece All in all I'm quite looking forward to this brave experiment the brits are undertaking, and wish them good luck. Lmao.

oliwan posted:a new teacher in Berlin makes about €60k A friend of mine is a teacher in Berlin and he makes more than literally any engineers in my Peer group that I know. I was expecting pretty good salary but when he told me what he gets after taxes I was still floored. Also there are many many teacher positions still unfilled, people are switching to teaching from engineering and other jobs because you currently have a job guarantee more or less. So yeah, Germany atm.

Almost one year after brexit and 11 days to go until a hard crash out there is still no brexit deal. Incredible. And one of the biggest sticking points is fish, of all things. I have to say mad props to the actual EU negotiators, I would have thrown my hands up and hosed off many, many months ago.

It's also very funny because they chose to suffer and ignored every chance of reversing it or suffering less just because

spankmeister posted:I love me some smoked eel tbh. Jellied eel is an affront to God. Smoked is great, fried eel is God like. It's the maximum fat saturation point you can reach with a fish, and if you have something to soak that up its just so good. By the way what's the reception of brexit in the UK? All I've heard is that the papers are doing victory laps for boris, while here in the EU everybodies slapping each other on the back for doing "the smart thing" while everybodies a bit blue balled from nothing spectacular happening anymore.

Lmao at the idea that after having hung up their caps decades ago, generations of traditional smuggler families in northern France are frantically unpacking their old boats from their smugglers coves, muttering "a cause de Pommes de terre! Pommes de terre! Ces stupides anglais" under their breath. Smugglings back baby, and its to transport groceries over the channel while avoided the heated fighting of the cod wars. Brexit!

Blackhawk posted:I still lol at all of these bullshit half-lockdowns other countries try to pass off as extreme. Compared to NZ where our full lockdown was literally no leaving your house except to buy essential goods (groceries, medicine and even then only one person from each household was allowed to shop at a time) and exercise within a few km radius of your house. You were even banned from driving for any reason other than buying essential goods. You weren't allowed to meet anybody you didn't live with, obviously no schools open, no shops other than the big supermarket chains open, no delivery of non-essential goods. Dude I've been banging my head against the wall since last summer for exactly this kind of lockdown. I'm also from Germany and while your and some other country had eradicated Corona, we are still, right now, arguing about whether open schools are spreading the virus. Not by how much, but if at all. And even if it was the case, politicians argue, the mental strain for the kids is just too much too risk any further closings. My office at the same time has been trying their damndest to get people to come in as much as possible and is only relenting currently due to the current restrictions. Christmas was a huge cluster gently caress of restrictions that kept changing, but ended up with 5 people from two households (kids not counted, because they obviously are not living beings), which most people kinda just ignored. This led to a neighbor of my parents with 3 adult children inviting them over one after another, just not at the same time. Even my well educated, lockdown abiding friends went home for Christmas, because quote "well im not gonna let it control everything ". I really wish we did it like nz, believe me.

... and furthermore, seeing as the definition of the word "beans" is solely dependent of the existence of more than one bean, the department of rationing rejects the criticism on our baked beans and toast package...

Guys it's fun to laugh at the UK reaping what they sowed and pointing at the empty supermarket shelves, but here in the EU it's gonna get dire soon as well. We'll have to go without all of our favorite British food, such as, uh, cheddar, baked beans, um.. After eight? Maybe? Cooked sheep head Ina can? Where do we get our chicken hearts from? Anyway, though times ahead for us

spankmeister posted:Cheddar is good though. Yes, please pray for us as we are left with only Spanish, French, Italian, Dutch, German or Danish cheese. no really cheddar is very good but seeing as the UK is not in the EU anymore they can't do the "it's only cheddar if it's from the cheddar region otherwise it's just orange cheese" thing anymore that has been going on with other food! so we'll propably have someone else produce it on the continent anyway. lmao
