Hairdryer Posted January 31, 2020 Posted January 31, 2020 Does anyone know if Edinburgh having a firework display for the uk coming out of the EU Quote
Francis Albert Posted January 31, 2020 Posted January 31, 2020 (edited) Something seldom mentioned in these discussions is the (in some cases large) tariffs the EU imposes on food imports from outside the EU. One central policy of the EU and it's predecessors has been the protection of European agriculture and farmers from competition from lower cost producers outside Europe, by a combination of these tariffs and subsidies to European farmers which directly and indirectly increase the cost of food to the consumer. (Someone once described the initial Common Market as a form of German reparation to France After WW2 by protecting inefficient French farming). Sorry wrong thread. Meant to post in the Happy Brexit Day thread. Perhaps a kind moderator could relocate the post? Edited January 31, 2020 by Francis Albert Quote

gashauskis9 Posted February 1, 2020 Posted February 1, 2020 Having displayed utter seeth at this shitshow for almost 4 years and supported revoking/2nd vote, I am this morning relieved to wake up to the knowledge that 15m Brits are waking up to freedom this morning having not been able to work, socialise, travel, receive health care or school their kids since 1973.

Cade Posted February 1, 2020 Posted February 1, 2020 Anything that goes wrong in the next twenty years will be blamed on "The EU not giving us a good deal". Mark my words. The EU will continue to be the bogeyman of the far right and will take the blame for everything. Quote

Mark my words. The EU will continue to be the bogeyman of the far right and will take the blame for everything. Potentially.
