UK jobs, fuel shortgages etc. Brexit dividents?

The irony is, being Vegan, they won't be eating eggs and as any self respecting tin-foil hat wearing conspiracy theorist knows eating eggs is a good source of protection against viruses... that's why the WEF engineered a shortage

The only shortages seem to be at places that wont pay for the cost of food ie supermarkets

Seeing as remainers are mostly well off, they wont be going to LIDL and Aldi which doesn't seem to have any shortages, yet pays a fair price for their produce

Wont be the last of it either, taking land out of crop production for tree planting and solar panels only means a strong reliance on imports, if they wish to send here

So it's all Brexit and not France being all belligerant and strikey then?

Is a similar thing happening at the non-France channel ports? Because I'd imagine if it was all due to Brexit, Rotterdam and Santander crossings would be affected too.

Considering traffic volumes are probably higher than ever it's just what happens on busy weekends it is nothing new.
The French love picking busy weekends to have a go slow too.

I think back in the days when we were part of the Euroverse if Frenchie was on strike it was even easier to get waved through.

Not hearing about massive delays at the tunnel, but there again it's not affected by the weather....

After that resentful Remain rag kept banging on about it to port authorities who were pointing to the weather and a surge in coaches, the port spokesman sighed and said, “Brexit may be a factor.” Stop the press!

Apparently the weekend backlog has now been cleared, which even the Independent couldn’t deny.

I thought we were all suffering from a veg shortage still, or has brexit successfully sorted that issue above the bad weather and inflation of core commodities across the world

To get back on topic, wasn't the main Brexit dividend meant to be an end to the recession in the value of blue coller labour? A return to some kind of affluence for the ordinary worker? How's that going?

So. Anyone else listen to the PM program on Radio 4 today where they bought a basket of the same goods in Lidl in the UK and Germany?

Came in nearly twice as expensive in Germany...

It probably all balances up somewhere when put against wages and other costs. I think the difference between us and Germany is when they build (insert anything) they do it because its a good idea and necessary and make sure it serves it's purpose, where here things only happen because some mate of the Tory party makes a fat profit and gets to buy another yacht to get pished on.
