So SA have you sold all of your beautiful British Pounds in anticipation of the great plunge we keep hearing about?

(I realise in your case it's only a few Premium Bonds and an Abbey National Young Savers account with 20 quid in it that your Gran gave you for your birthday, but it's the principle isn't it?).

'Arry, we know you are an oik, secondary modern/comprehensive schooled in some ghastly suburban, brownfield site populated by the lower end, first generation migrants and the merely unlucky, majoring in woodwork and English for illiterates, but I would have thought even you would have comprehended that we civil servants are pensioned on the basis that the emoluments are taxed at source and thus we can never migrate our incomes to gain a tax benefit.

One cannot escape the depredations of devaluation but at least I can offset the pain by not actually being in the slime pit currently that is BoJo's Engerlandia.

So far British taxpayers have given me nigh on £250,000 plus.

Thank you.

And suck my dick.

Har, har.

a quarter mill ? thats £25K p.a. eh?

certainly not much of a pension all things considered. does that include your state pension as well.

seems i was correct in assuming your lowly grade as a whitehall wonk, but a minor cog in the creaky inefficient machine known as the civil service. i remember my dealings with the dull witted drones at the d.o.h. their ability to frustrate and prevaricate was second to none.

look s.a. we understand that you are against brexit. you have, with depressing regularity, bored the pants of us with your increasingly incoherent, obscene and prolix tirades against those of us who happen to hold a different view to yours.

but the eu is broken. its unelected politicos are no more than incompetent gravy train riding jobsworth rejects from their national governments. it's the north at odds with the south and now, at odds with the east. thanks to the euro, the eu exists to enrich germany, and the fracture lines are becoming ever more apparent. the greed of the germans is obscene, now they re even sucking russian and chinese cock. and that kind of behaviour is certainly not for us brits.

we, us brits, have never been europeans and we never will be. we are an island people. independent, and certainly not beholden to the shameless and domineering krauts or the arrogant frenchies and we are perfectly capable of looking after ourselves. we should never have entered into an agreement with them in the first place and whilst we may have benefitted financially from this uncomfortable marriage with incompatible partners their bullying attempts to subsume members into federalisation would never sit well with us brits. should a no deal be the result, then we will take the hit, take the chinese style punishment beating they threaten all dissenters with, and move on.

you can quote all the financial statistics your addled civil service brain can recall, but it makes no difference. the hit we may take will be chickenfeed compared to the brexit hit that we all will suffer, the uk will eventually be just fine. thankfully a smaller player on the world stage for sure, but we will retain our pride, our principles and our independence. and business will adapt, it always does.

If you think a £25k occupational pension is small fry then I rather think you are more divorced from reality than others here speculated.

Britain will not do well, it will not prosper, the masses will suffer, taxes will rise, public expenditure will contract, infrastructure will crumble and that will be the future.

Rizzo Paki Boy has spunked out a £1 trillion and we still haven't factored in the GDP contraction as 200,000 SMEs give up trading in profit and imports rise in price by a factor of 20%.

you've turned the clock back 47 years and you forgot the shit we were in when Britain was still revelling in the description that it was the sick man of Europe.

The young will cut your throttled old gizzard out Tax and we will be back in the EU once you silly old dinosaurs are but bleached bones in the graveyard of relics.

Actually, I think you have gone a little mad. Living among the ugly, the stupid, the deranged and the merely ignorant seems to have entrenched your prejudices and loosened that already tenuous grasp on reality you may have had, old boy. Mrs. Tax will be back in LoS within a month of your cremation.

£25K p.a. is hardly a kings ransom, it'll just about get you a retirement visa and a few sloppy seconds down pattaya way.

for those that have put in the years the nhs pension is certainly more generous, and it's adjusted for inflation every year.


as for brexit, only time will tell.

but your reliance on insult and abuse to further your cause merely highlights the paucity of your argument along with the belligerence and narrowmindedness of you remainers and your inability to accept a democratically decided decision. very much like the eu actually.

and as for my cremation, well i'm not expecting to be cremated for a good while yet, but should i be summoned prematurely then the lovely mrs.tax will be able to choose where she lives. she has a uk as well as a thai passport and i suspect she will carry on as we do now, 6 months here and 6 months there. she quite likes the uk and the way things are done here, and even the december weather doesn't phase her.

Britain has ‘nuclear options’ against EU hostility - Briefings For Britain

The EU has also exploited African countries, demanding and then abusing rights to fish in their waters in return for economic assistance. The EU’s abortive threat to stop food supplies from Britain to Northern Ireland was another example and the current threat to halt exchanges of security data that could save lives hardly suggests a mature attitude to negotiation.

I don't suppose you've actually had a good look around to satisfy yourself that any of this is true, right?

The assertion that the EU has 'threatened to stop' food supplies from Britain to Northern Ireland is, for a start, highly misleading.

From 1 January, Northern Ireland will stay in the EU single market for goods but the rest of the UK will leave.
That means some food products arriving in Northern Ireland from Great Britain will need to be checked.

So, they will be 'stopped' only in the sense that they will need to be checked.

This looks like another one of those BREXITer BULLSHITter things that aren't quite a lie, but are deliberately misleading.

You may find because NI will be in the EU customs union that the EU has the advantage of selling its own products there and not UK products, which will in some instances become 100% more expensive(cheeses)

Some UK producers are saying they will pause/stop supplying NI with produce, until everything is clarified.

Anyway as usual Squirrel you not see the bigger picture.

Not far off now UK making trade deal with India, that will be 300 billion in trade deals so far

'Everything' concerning a disruption which is occurring at the behest of BREXIT idiots.

It's not exactly the EU 'threatening to stop' food supplies from Britain to Northern Ireland then, is it?

(Hint: by 'not exactly' I mean 'nothing like it'.)

I wonder if you could spell it.

Well that'll be your all important market for cheese sorted, then.

F.O.S as usual squirrel, best to keep watching your CCTV.

An utterly feeble response, as expected from a BREXIT thicko.

An FTA with India hasn't actually started yet.

Do you have a link to that? As far as I can tell the maximum tariff on cheese will be 50%, however, the average is lower than than, closer to 40%. The transition time for these tariffs to come into effect is still under negotiation. I heard rumours of 3-6 months on fresh produce,longer for meat produce.

Yep, the UK will be selling all the fucking beef and bacon priced out of the EU by 30% tariffs to the wobbleheads and everyone will be rich as Croesus, you silly gormless fuckwit. India wants fuck all from the UK except access for its students and to work in IT.

You like all the other Brexit numpties seem to think that simply because you sign a trade protocol it means everyone is going to buy shit.

What is it that Britain is going to sell to the wog that it couldn't before Brexit, eh?

Jesus, I've told you knuckle draggers before, fucking Germany sells more to Nigeria than the UK does and it has fuck all to do with the Commonwealth.

Britain is worthless to the world, 48% of its entire manufacturing output went to the EU. 80% of its GDP is sourced from services, which is fucking why half its manufacturing depended on proximity to its major market of 500 million consumers conly a fucking 22 miles distant.

Britain is fucked and if it fails to sign a FTA with the EU then its doubly fucked.

Quite how anyone could possibly believe the total shite spewed by BoJo the Clown and his demented ERG rabble is really beyond belief. I mean, how could anyone be that fucking stupid?

Also NI is in economic terms in the EU and after 1.1.21 that means imports and exports are subject to controls. BoJo signed up to it in the WA to preserve the GFA, you stupid pinhead.

Brexit was shit but at least one can look forward to the dopy farmers who voted for it whining that they thought they were promised sun-dappled hill sheep and hill cow pastures with free range unicorns.

Har, har.

Cutting itself off from its biggest unfettered market of 27 countries 22 miles away has to be the dumbest thing since the square wheel.

You may find its will be the Republic of Ireland that will take the brunt of a no trade deal, hence why they are pleading for a trade deal now

See your once again making up trade figures

Germany to Nigeria 1.2 billion

UK to Nigeria 1.7 billion and rising

The rumour is that Eire believe the current fishing rights offer from the EU is just as bad as a no deal.

Barnier's latest offer is 25% return of fishing catch to UK over 12 year transition period. The UK initial position was 60% over a 3 year transition period.
