Govt. overreach: https://amp.theguardian.com/money/20...ality-watchdog
There are two things that really stink about all this:
1. The EU's 2019 Tax Avoidance Directive. It cannot, simply cannot be a coincidence that we are leaving the EU at the same time of this directive being implemented.
2. Russia - and their master propaganda plan to divide and break up western civilization as we currently know it.
It stinks. STINKS. Somebody get my tinfoil hat because I'm going full conspiracy on this one.
Hey, an actual ultimatum for the UK; show the money before the 29th of this month or we're not talking trade deals this year.
As for Brexit being a plan only to benefit the ultra-rich; nothing new about that. Which makes it extra sad that peeps like Randy are putting themselves over the barrel.
I've heard mutterings that Brexit was basically a trial run for Trump, but seen no compelling evidence. If it was, they played it way more low-key than they did in the US election.Quote:

Indeed. You only have to look at the comments on a politically related BBC article to realise something fishy is going on.Quote:

Again absolute claptrap. We will be leaving with effectively the same regulatory system as you have.
You are setting the floor and expectations so low that Brexit can only be a success by your metrics. Do you want to make a bet that on 30 March 2019 that the UK is no longer able to import these goods? It isn't going to happen!
No. You'll be leaving EURATOM. There will also be uncertainty about future regulatory compliance.Quote:

No Randy, we have the regularory system. And what you will have is some national arrangement which may or may not be compliant. There is no automatic recognition in the absence of a deal.Quote:

We do laws, not custom. if our law says that compliance has to be established we can't just waive it and assume compliance has been established. And you want to consider entering in that stage without a deal. Hoping that after you've shafted us again, we're gonna give you all kinds of things you want just because you want it
How about €50 that on 30 March 2019 the UK is able to import those goods? I win if we are able to, you win if not. I'm sure the news will report somewhere online if we're not able to.Quote:

If you have an uncontrolled Brexit, Rand. THAT is what we're trying to get into your thick head - if you get a deal then that might work out fine. It also might not. And currently it's looking increasingly likely that you're headed for a trainwreck of epic proportions and getting access to medical isotopes will be the least of your problems.Quote:

Right, and so the did the populism, anti-intellectualism and cultural resentment that brought us Donald Trump, 45th President of the United States. Doesn't mean Russia wasn't also involved.Quote:

Sane policies needed. We had farming before we had free movement and that included migrant labour.Quote:

Kinda disgraceful.
Given that your insanity makes it utterly unattractive even for poor EU citizens to work in agriculture in the UK that is rich coming from you.Quote:

Why? Are they getting lower wages? Has our minimum wage suddenly stopped being dramatically higher than the wages available in other nations?Quote:

Bizarre argument given that the UK has seen a significant & sustained decrease in the availability of seasonal farm laborers from the EU after the referendum, just as it has seen a sharp drop in applications for NHS positions, applications for jobs in finance, tech, academia, research etc. The UK's minimum wage is just one of several important variables workers consider.Quote:

*thought bubble* I wonder if there's going to be a market for 'don't blame me, I voted remain' t-shirts in the next couple of years.
No. Helmets & body armor.
Our currency dropped marginally within the realm of normal fluctuations in recent years, the rest of the EU is not doing better than us and our crew has a good attitude.Quote:

As for your currency; there was nothing regular about the drop after the Brexit vote and with the rest of Europe offering better options than jobs significantly below your level of education in the UK which pay 10% less than before the choice not to come is easily made.
I suggest you plow up your garden and start growing your own food.
I must say I really enjoy seeing your eurosceptic bullshit blowing up right in your face.
