Brexit Penny Dropping?

I dunno. Does this sound anything at all like an, err, you know, European army?

There has always been talk of an EU army or at least regiment, already exists. The US has always been interested in the US.

You don't say.

Anyone bringing forward their Christmas orders to prevent the predicted possible shortages having a detrimental effect on their culinary ambitions? One assumes the threat must be tangible. Even the Mail are using the B word as culprit. Amazing.

If this is to be believed there could be a huge shitstorm coming down the line. Yo ho ho! Brexit supporters that I know are adamant that this is down to the Pingdemic. But they might just be starting to waver a little! What d'ya reckon?

Not just lorry drivers. Seems to be a shortage of workers in many sectors. Care, for example. When a 16 year old can get a first job in retail here paying over £10 per hour, and health care assistants get less than that while working unsociable hours there’s definitely a major problem looming. The pingdemic hasn’t helped but that is mainly short term absences and can’t really be blamed for positions being unfilled.

HGV drivers talked about on R4’s ‘More or Less’ programme today.

It's almost too funny.  I'm sure that's not the Brexit the Mail got everyone to vote for. 

[Mr. Sausages]

Not the brexit they voted for.  But it is the brexit all the remoaners voted against.
