Thread: Brexit - It's Still On!

And yet for people actually in the UK outside the Westminster bubble life goes on as usual with wages continuing to outstrip inflation and employment at record levels. Tip for you SeekingAss stop reading opinion pieces in the Guardian written by London based political activists with an agenda posing as journalists. Will go some way to help you stop making a tit of yourself.

you are living in your own bubble, Asperger, so everything you say about the real situation should be taken with a giant truck load of salt

your own personal reality, or perceived reality, might not be for the same for the rest of the UK

I really hope the next PM will be crazy enough to go with the Parliament suspension to force hard Brexit over the summer

endless political debates and division for the next 50 years over that dumb move,

England, the loons who keep giving great political entertainment

Buttfly. It will happen thus. No Brexit, we will stay in the EU and wrangle with you ad infinitum. Merkel will get the presidency and your little Napoleon will sit there taking what he's given whining from his seat two rows back whilst the Gillet Jaunes slowly burn the country around him until the people have had enough and vote in Le Pen. At that point joining forces with the other EU revisionists like Farage we will all sit back and have our own 3 years of pissing ourselves laughing whilst country after country tied to the Euro go down the pan.

Looking forward to the next spat which is Italy,

Racaille, in my previous job I was travelling all over the UK but the majority of time down in London Mon-Fri and being the social type of person I am after a days work I would always find a bar for a beer and a chat so i have a pretty good idea of how things are right across the UK and as things currently stand most people are happy with their lot and earning decent coin. Trouble with the doom mongers like SeekingAss is that they have no idea of the actual reality of life in the UK in 2019 and just rely on opinion pieces from the Guardian written by people who never set foot outside of London.

No Brexit will be a disaster I agree, but I fear it's going to happen. Stupid Merkel will not let go. And Westminster doesn't really want Brexit.

Gillets Jaunes is over, get with the program. The movement is dwiling quite fast, to non-existent. Sadly.

Macron getting stronger and up in the polls,

While it's nice you have a plentiful supply of cheap wine in France probably best to wait till at least lunch time before get started as will save you posting bollox like this racaille.

as I suspected, your bar stool discussions with other loons are not representative of overall reality, just a biased sample of like-minded people

you don't come up as the type who would mingle with people outside his chav environment, hence doing your analysis through bar stool discussions at the pub

Racaille, I believe you lived and worked in London/UK in the past did you not and presuming you frequented bars even if they were mainly gay bars during that time then you would know that you get a good cross section of people having a pint after work from all walks of life. Everyone is equal in the pub.

people in the pub are there for a good time and not disagreeing, at least in London, not in the North where the Chavs meet up at pubs to fight with complete strangers

basically a pub is not a good sample for analyzing what will happen in the future,

I am sure people could be disillusioning themselves over a pint that everything is fine, while in reality everything could be collapsing around them, so really not a good place for a perception on reality. You will meet people like you projecting, some people hiding or lying about their real situation, and people being perfectly happy with the current situation.

Seriously Buri, try to read a real newspaper for once, if you ever read a real one in your life, but I doubt it

don't get fool on perception and superficial "analysis" at the bars, you don't learn anything there, it's just a comfort zone for your own bias

The best discussions are had in bars for the simple reason you get a good cross section of people with all different views where as the guardian readers on here just listen to one side of the story in the form of opinion pieces written by London centric so called journalists with a biased agenda. I know people from all walks of life and the fact remains people are doing well across the board, anybody can earn decent coin in the UK at the moment.

The demographic of London is such that I should imagine Bumbumboy's barfly acquaintances were not necessarily those who are from the more enlightened end of the spectrum but the reality is, most folk not employed in the public sector are probably doing very well not least because there is so much dosh flying around. The Grenfell disaster is a poignant testament to the scope of capitalism - many council tenants were sub-letting illegally and raking in £1000 a month, and their non-deaths aroused the interest of not only the borough but the taxman too. There are two types of folk who go to pubs in London who would speak to BBboy, tourists and oiks. Most others who work in London go home in the suburbs, maybe after a few pints but always, always with their work chums and no one would speak to a provincial out-of-towner in a boozer on a casual acquaintance. Similarly those from the lower end who live in shit housing stock inherited from extended families when it was affordable drink in their locals and wouldn't acknowledge BB never mind talking to him.
It's London, innit.

Whatever are you on? I could earn the same in the UK in 1999 as I can now. At that time I could earn more than double in the USA and and similar in Europe. The UK has no respect for engineers, many of whom left long ago. The only decent engineering done now is via universities and those researching as part of a doctorate

You must have lived in some inbred part of the UK unwelcoming to outsiders SeekingAss, while these places do exist in some parts thankfully they are few and far between and most pubs are welcoming of some new blood and banter. Although I imagine you are a social misfit and generally avoided in bars.

If you cant command a higher wage now than 20 years ago in the UK you are either not very good at negotiating or looking in the wrong places for jobs.

You obviously know little about IR35 and freelancers.

Links, obviously i won't hold my breath knowing you are bored out your head in your shoebox with nothing better to do to fill your days than post boring, tedious bullshit on forums.

So you're a tax Dodger then?

Been through this loop before. Gordon Brown thought he could gain some money and lost more as everyone buggered off.

Big companies pay shit and fail to retain their experienced staff. They haven't learnt anything in the last 40 years and, sadly, nor have many other EU countries. Germany have changed their laws recently and good people are leaving. I'm too old to bother with it all so will see my days out making double the going rate in the UK without having to quit jobs every couple of years.

US is still worth another visit and there are probably plenty of museum pieces lying around to work on.

And dodging tax?

Since this dullard has aimed this charge at me too ...

I failed to contribute in any way to the atrocities in the falklands, the former yugoslavia, iraq, syria or yemen.

I hope I’ll be forgiven on the day of reckoning.
