Yet Another Brexit Benefit For The Brexiteers Not To Complain About

[Hymie]

Remember there would be no downsides to Brexit, only considerable upsides (David Davis).

Red tape is cited as the reason.  Who's imposing it?

Brexiteers seem to think that the EU must bend to our will, and ignore protocols/procedures in place when dealing with non-EU countries – such is their arrogance.

Meanwhile in a fact based developement rather that a "report" composed by rabid remainiac emotion junkies   ...

""The government has banned travelers from Europe bringing meat and dairy products into the UK in order to prevent new cases of foot-and-mouth disease, which is spreading quickly across the continent. Were it not for Brexit, such a ban would be subject to review by the ECJ and the government would be unable to take decisive unilateral action to protect public health.""

[Hymie]

Here’s my mate Phil’s take on the issue:-

 

[Hymie]

As my mate Phil says in the video, if people knew the facts about Brexit, they would be livid (but they don’t).

 

If you’re not livid at the disaster that Brexit is for the UK, you are clearly not aware of the facts.

[Old_Geezer]

Again, this isn't any 'Brexit' issue but another 'reaction to Brexit' issue. 

 

Neither is it about the EU bending to our will, merely a desire that they might try to do the right thing (for once) and not deliberately make difficulties. (Maybe the EU bring awkward is what gave Trump his ideas ?)

"If you’re not livid at the disaster that Brexit is for the UK, you are clearly not aware of the facts."

I am not livid at Brexit - quite the opposite in fact (though there are still one or two issues to be ironed out). As you might realise, I am also aware of the facts (and much of the fiction).

I am not at all surprised that issues such as this arise. That said, the UK is not the only country facing problems with pharmaceutical products. Many in the EU are and it has nothing to do with Brexit, but frequently a lot to do with the EU.

I am also not at all surprised that the EU will capitalise on any problems the UK has as a result of it leaving the EU, and to exacerbate them whenever possible. I would expect nothing less. You would not expect that of most normal organisations that seek to ensure smooth trade with its largest trading partners. But the EU is not such a normal organisation. It is a venal concern which is interested only in its own domination of trade, industry and legislation across Europe. It is best given a wide berth wherever and whenever possible.

hymie's change the record, we all knew the facts about brexit me old china.

[Hymie]

At least when your GP says – I’m sorry you can’t have the life-saving cancer treatment you desperately need, you’ll know why.

[davebro3]

Give it a rest Hymie - we're out & we're staying out. To keep poking a stick at what you percieve to be a "wound" doesn't do any good & is probably a detriment to your mental health.

[Hymie]

Too many people are willing to accept the turd-show that we are in as a result of Brexit – why should we not try to get back that annual £100 billion in lost trade (£40 billion annual lost tax revenue to the UK exchequer) etc, etc, maybe by re-joining.

 

Based on the responses to my Brexit posts on AB, I’m in the minority of this view (that Brexit is a disaster), by pointing out just a small selection of the disasters that have befallen the UK as a direct result of Brexit, some Brexiteers might wake up to reality.

[ToraToraTora]

You're in the minority because you are talking garbage me old china. 

[naomi24]

Hymie, if you accept that you're in a minority here accept that the rest are happy with Brexit.  Tell your mate Phil too.

[Old_Geezer]

You'll know why. The EU is screwing you again.

[JDavis]

TTT,

If Hymie really is talking garbage, surely he won't be in the minority? This is AB, me old china.

[Hymie]

Let’s hope that all those who suffer (and maybe die), unable to get the cancer treatment they desperately need, voted for Brexit (and so cannot complain) – because if it was me or one of my loved ones, I’d be bloody annoyed.

[davebro3]

Nice one Hymie - wishing death & destruction on those who happen to have a different view. What a diamond geezer you are.

[Clone]

Of all the people you could wish death upon, you choose Brexiteers.

Nice.

Shown your true colours there Hymie.
