Political relations between UK-EU

[Alan Harper's Tash]

well they're there, whether they are prepared or not is a question of bone-idleness.

What percentage of people on benefits do you think are bone idle?

He was posting the other day. Think it was a football thread too.
The mcfc1632 seems to have left.
After all, his work is done...

I'm sure he said that it may take up to 50 years to achieve, but it would be worth it to take back control.
He'll be back occasionally to check up on how it's going.

And has their bone-idleness index increased, decreased, or remained the same since the referendum?

You are aware that the majority of those receiving benefits are already in work - it tops up low pay so people can live

I thought we had loads of British citizens all prepared to train to do these jobs. Farage, Johnson, Gove, Rees-Smug and the Daily Mail itself would never tell porkies.

They’re all busy picking fruit and vegetables before they rot

It’s as simple as that is it?

For the typical tory, yes.

Did the Today programme just manage a five-minute piece on shortage of hospitality staff without mentioning "Brexit"?

Subsidising their employers so that they can employ staff on a low wage......... Socialism for the rich, Capitalism for the poor.

Probably already posted, the Food & Drink Fed has just published its snapshot of UK food & drink exports to the EU for February. Meat hit hard again: chicken 79.5% down on Feb 2020, beef by 77.6%. Dairy had a bleak month: cheese down 64.6%, milk and cream... 96.4%. All top 10 products fell bar whisky.

Everyone is pushing for a closer deal on Food to try and eliminate the trade barriers, but Govt thinks a new yacht will do the trick, but not if John Lewis deck out the cabins.

Also the row over ambassador status for the EU looks like ending with the UK giving the EU rep ambassador status. This row according to one source has had a corroding effect on ‘trust and goodwill’, so yet another pointless exercise in futility as we finally accept the inevitable.

Still shaping to be a good day though after last nights result :)
