I have to check with you, you do realise this is satire ? 

It was originally that's why I ignored it and hence my 'many true words said in jest' response, then when Cloggs pulled him up on his figures he lied and backtracked about plucking the 45 a year figure our of his arse...

 

Anyway as its Christmas have some joy; this is great,

But a carpenter on £35K is now getting £45K, so that evens it all out.

It most certainly does, especially as more than a few of them shortfalls are overplayed or have little to do with Brexit; ie empty shelves? oh come on, fuel shortages? we ran a little low for a week.

 

Edit; I note low unemployment and record vacancies are off his list, maybe they not that important

Can we have some kind of amnesty on this thread? Play a game in no man's land and fuck the whole thing off until the new year?

I'll drink to that with a pint of Champagne.

Ridiculous, you'd need at least three for a decent work meeting.

We had a pack of orange and lemon slices, usually come in a circle pack, but there was about 20% cut out this year. I asked where they were from, Ireland.

 

Brexit ruined Christmas.

The pipes of peace is shit. I preferred it when we were calling each other cunts because we disagreed over the merits of trade deals.

Watch this and (ignoring the commercial aspect) not be moved:

 

 

and stop arguing over the EU for fucks sake. Its Christmas day.

This is a big problem for the Tories.

Another in the 'it must be going swimmingly' column...

 

B-WORD BANNED: The Telegraph reckons civil servants have been told to avoid using the word “Brexit” and instead refer to “31 December 2020” in a Whitehall style guide. Officials should only use the word when “providing historical context,” the document suggests.

I remember those innocent, long-lost days when David Cameron refused to do anything to help Port Talbot and pretended it was the EU preventing him from protecting jobs.

 

Cunt.

Average wage in India is £300/month. Farm workers even less. I can see why the Tories are desperate to have more of us over here. Don't know what leave voters will think mind as it's the opposite of what they were sold.

It was always going to be the consequence of a points based system that was blind to race and country of origin. Non European immigration will increase but it will be higher skilled applicants from Asia instead of unemployed unskilled white Eastern Europeans. Fundamentally it’s a less racist system.

anyone paid any roaming charges yet? Can’t wait.

Loads.

 

The wife especially is taking to the new charges with the typical aplomb with which she encounters most financial considerations and just completely ignoring them.

 

’Oh, I didn’t realise it’d happen again. I thought after the first time they would have sorted it’

 

Madness, we’ve had two £300 plus bills as she just ignores the polite text telling you you can pay by the day for a fixed amount.

 

I’ve effectively bricked her phone when she isn’t in the UK now.

 

She was transiting through Qatar a few years back and thought this would be the opportune moment to download all her favourite podcasts for the next leg of the flight, £400.

You’re right, but wasn’t there something about individual deals internationally, sure there was.

 

Anyhows, yeah, bunch of cunts.

Free movement within the EU is "blind to race". The UK experience of large-scale immigration from the EU wasn't one of "unemployed unskilled white Eastern Europeans" at all. The opposite was true: the "benefits tourists" were always a fiction created to distract and enrage readers of shitrags like the Daily Heil; many East European workers in the UK were hugely overqualified for the jobs they took.

 

But, apart from that, great post!
