How do we resolve the Brexit mess?

Cant believe that outright lie isnt being rammed down the tories' throats every single week.

They’ll just waffle and say Russia and Covid

The Tories are hiring Scooby Doo for their GE party broadcasts.

"Gee Scoob. Where did all the UK's money go?"

"Rovid!"

The Costa living crisis

Brexit has grounded the ‘snowbirds’ who headed for Spanish holiday homes each winter – and ended dreams of expat life in the sun

I used to love going over to europe and just driving, camping across different countries. Havent been since Brexit unfortunately :(

But I guess brexiteers are glad about that given the fucked up hate world we live in.

I do miss travelling easily and freely around europe though.

I expect most aren’t so much glad, as much as they are surprised.

The same is true in the other direction.

It’s gotten increasingly difficult for my wife and her family to even go on holiday (they are settled in the UK but have EU passports). Every time they come back into the country at least one of them will get pulled and interrogated about their settled status. Getting through passport control was already a nightmare because the automated machines are notoriously poor at letting black people through. I’m not kidding, they just don’t work on people with very dark skin. So we have to go through the manual queue and then my wife or her family end up getting questioned by the passport agents.

Bear in mind this is a qualified doctor who has dedicated the last decade of her life to working in public service for our benefit and every time she comes back off holiday she’s made to feel like a chancer trying to cadge into the country. It’s naturally quite upsetting for her (and by extension me) that she often feels anxious about just trying to get home.

Especially the Brit expats in Spain that voted for brexit , yet are angry at the Spanish for now requiring visas, utter wankers that have destroyed the future for UK kids.

Epic levels of arrogance and delusion.

Just watched a very interesting Nationwide program on RTE from the port of Rosslare.
Trade with Britain through the port has fallen 20-30%, but trade with the continent has gone up over 300%.
There are huge plans to expand the port doubling it’s size and freight capacity. Infrastructure including rail and motorway connectivity which will eliminate traffic lights from the port all the way to Belfast.

This alongside the 6 o’clock news item telling of similar plans for a brand new deep water port construction off the coast of Meath to take the increased traffic for Drogheda, tells us that huge opportunities have come our way as a result of increased European trade that has resulted from Brexit.
The actuality of business is clear that the certainty of logistical scheduling bypassing Britain is huge for all concerned.

Nolan Freight in Rosslare are very happy.
