Brexit clusterf@ck.. you really can't go and live or work in Europe.. 15:51 - Sep 20 with 14525 viewsunstableblue

... anymore unless you are loaded or have a company offering you a professional contract over a period of time

I would have loved Unstable junior to go and work a summer of ski season.. or just go and bum round Europe getting casual work

But that aside if someone a little older wanted to take a punt on opening a business in Europe, change of lifestyle, climate... you need serious ongoing income, medical insurance

I know someone going to study in Italy for a short time, as its over 9 weeks they're going through a full visa process

This really is b@llox isn't it? what a load of lies and 'project fear' cack the majority were fed... so what they could get pounds and ounces at the green grocers... a new royal yacht.. blue passports... and a trade deal with Australia (which is woeful)

We need to get this government out, go on a charm offensive... and start trying to build the best arrangement and deals we can possibly get.. and make some frickin concessions

Just a quick Point of Order, nobody really, REALLY gives a flying f**k about imperial measures. They've not been taught for 50 years plus, so literally nobody is still losing any sleep over it AND we were actually rather keen on the idea of moving to metric, back in the day. And if you really want to lose your sh*t over it, you could do metric to imperial equivalents.

Blue passports could have been had at any time. And they'd have been made in the UK too, rather than France, as they are now.

There wont be a yacht, there wont be a Boris Bridge and there wont be a Boris Island Airport - that's all smokescreen and bollix to distract from whatever the latest Govt f**k up was.

Trade deal with Oz? Whatevs, it's the other side of the planet, mate. Priorities, yeah?

Agreed, this sorry shower need to be binned off and the electorate need to wise up. Sharpish.

I have nothing but intense hatred for brexiteers. It’s not even a case of disagreeing with their opinions, I absolutely detest them for what they’ve done to this country and for what? For absolutely nothing in return.

I don’t buy that they were misled. They knew what they were doing, it was patently clear what leaving the EU would do and they kept their fingers in their ears and toddled off to the polling station.

Utter scum, the lot of them.

Over what? The fact my country is being dragged back to the 1950s? The fact that we’ve chucked away positive and fruitful trade and cultural relations for the square root of fck all? No I’m not over that or nor should anyone else with any sense.

Scum got through the filter, it’s the mildest term.

Couldn't agree more, it's terrible and it's only because of the pandemic we haven't been hit with the full realisation of just how sh*t it is. There really is no upside.

It's the young people who will suffer the most, I feel sorry for my kids (and yours) who can't experience the freedom of Europe, like they should be able to. I own a snowboard shop and every year we (used to) get an influx of excited young people about to head off on their first season, picking up their essentials. Covid obviously put paid to that last year, but I fear even when we're back to "normal" there'll be no return to this. Sure you CAN travel for extended periods in Europe and sure, European companies CAN employ Brits, but for most people and most companies it's just not worth the hassle and hoop jumping.

Truly sad, imagine giving away your (and your childrens) freedom to work, travel and live in Europe for some non-exsitent, perceived threat of foreign hordes...

It is very weird how much Brexiteers hate Jeremy Corbyn given that what they've voted for is now delivering everything they said he would.

Imperial measures still dominate everyday life, mostly because they are more practical and relate to the quantiries we use and can measure with

But why do we need some change in the law, as if talking about someone being 6 foot, having a 30 inch waist, wearing size 9 shoes or the height of a horse in hands is some illegal act. Folk use what suits them, and no one is bothered

.
The reality is it is a desperate scrap being thrown to the thick to show that brexit is being done. Whereas what is really about to be done is removing EU protections on GM crops, food and animals. Removing protections on clinical trials etc

Australia have shown that unless the UK can get countries to rollover (ie stick with EU regs) the UK has to concede quite a bit. In this case animal welfare, the use of growth hormones and lord knows what. And before the thickos bleat, the idea is that the UK removes country of origin labelling - so none of us will have a clue what is in processed meat foods.

This is just the beginning. The businesses and trade shifting across the channel will continue. No one can say they were not warned.

Less red tape. And what little there is will be better, global, over-ready red tape.

‘Scum’ might well be a tad too far but most of them weren’t misled - when it came fine to it they sided with the racists and xenophobes. They sided with the people who want to limit workers rights and to create a Singapore in the North Sea. They created this mess but they refuse to own it.

Imperial measurements are only practical if you happen to be British or American and grew up with them. To everyone else they are ridiculous.
