The fish point is actually incredibly true.
Nearly every person on here who voted remain was saying to fuck the fishing industry as its 0.01% of GDP, if it meant a deal over no deal, myself included.
Now they spend every waking minute posting articles at how bad the fishing industry has gone.
I am consistent, I feel bad for those who work in that industry but on the scale of things, there’s far worse issues affected by Covid and it’s still 0.01% of GDP. The industry isn’t totally fucked but even if it was I’d have sacrificed it for a deal, over no deal.
This whole thread is a point scoring exercise and I actually saw one poster, who’s guilty of doing just that, accusing someone of scouting the internet to find negative Biden articles, in another thread, whilst he does the same all day every day in here.
It’s just bizarre stuff really but it is somewhat explainable.
Some of them haven’t got what they wanted at the ballot for 11 years. That’s a pretty long time to see your fellow citizens continuously rejecting your views every time of asking. They’re bitter and look at everything with a negative slant now. Not just this thread but the others on this sub forum. Apparently the UK is “regressive little shit hole country” according to some.
The reality is the vast vast majority of people aren’t really affected by Brexit. The job market saw no dip over December and January, in fact it grew in the sectors I work in. Salaries haven’t been affected, food still costs the same. The economy is set to do reasonably well. The biggest economic issue is still the pandemic. Yes, some companies have had issues exporting and yes the fishing industry is struggling, but fuck me, cheer up, the cliff edge hasn’t happened, we’re better clear of them for the sake of vaccines, which is far more important than selling shellfish and life is good.
