..Brexit!
'Britain is in danger of a “disastrous” food scandal, owing to lax post-Brexit border controls on agricultural imports, the leader of the UK’s biggest farming organisation has warned.
Minette Batters, the president of the National Farmers’ Union, accused ministers of a “dereliction of duty” in failing to ensure food and other agricultural imports were safe. She said the government had failed to learn the lessons of the horsemeat scandal of 2013.
“We are seeing little to no checks on imports that are coming in from the EU,” she said. “We have the massive risk of African swine fever in Europe, and to not be investing in our defences for keeping our biosecurity and animal and plant health safe, I think is just a dereliction of duty.”
Agree, i can't imagine anything other than a nice rise once figures are shown and a very healthy dividend to be had.
Personal favourite all time nickname i heard belonged to a chiodhood friend who everyone knew as 'Dids'. I asked his brother why he was called that and he told me it was because 'he didn't do it'.
Anyhow, back to the present Brexit liar Tory pilferer UK wrecking enablers..
'One of the reasons public opinion has WOKEN UP and moved fast in the direction of REGRET for leaving and support for re-entry is that people may not pay much attention to the macroeconomic damage that obsesses commentators such as myself, but they do notice when the loss of freedom of movement inhibits them, not just the European workers on whom the economy had relied for so long.
One of the many mistakes made by David Cameron over Brexit – the biggest being calling a referendum at all – was in refusing help from European Commission officials. They could have told the British electorate what was in store for them.
Interestingly at last weekend’s annual Venice seminar, where Italian and British journalists discuss economic and geopolitical issues with Italian ministers, officials and industrialists, that the mood had changed. For years, the British were rather condescending about the problems of the Italian economy. TODAY THERE IS AN AIR OF SADNESS ABOUT THE WAY THE UK HAS INFLICTED UPON ITSELF THE ROLE OF THE SICK MAN OF EUROPE'.
'Commentators, politicians and economists tend to think they are quoting John Maynard Keynes with: “When the facts change, I change my mind. What do you do, sir?”
I have always been suspicious of the derivation of this putative remark. Even in this modern world of fake news, facts do not change. New information may come to light, but facts are facts. I don’t think there is any evidence that Keynes ever perpetrated such a canard, and nor does Keynes’s distinguished biographer, Robert Skidelsky.
It seems to be a bastard version of a remark that is attributed to Keynes. When once asked why he had changed his mind on something, he apparently replied: “What else do you do when you find you are wrong?”
I quote this in the context of recent developments in regard to Brexit. The majority of respondents to recent surveys now believe the nation was wrong to vote for Brexit, and a tidy majority would like to rejoin the European Union. Admitting one is wrong is not a natural inclination; but in the case of Brexit many leavers have the reasonable excuse that they were WOEFULLY MISLED BY A GANG OF LYING CHARLATANS.
A powerful condemnation of this bunch was made recently by the well-known City of London figure Guy Hands – a former Tory donor – when he told the BBC Today Programme that Brexit was “A COMPLETE DISASTER” and “a bunch of TOTAL LIES … the biggest issue about it, and you can take the Brexit bus as a good example, is the lies that Boris Johnson and the Conservative party told about the NHS. In fact, what they did was throw the country and the NHS under the bus.”
THE MONSTROSITY OF BREXIT inflicted on the British people MERITS A PUBLIC INQUIRY – even an old-fashioned royal commission. There are even calls for a “class action” in the courts for the way that an entire younger generation has been deprived – thus far – of rights it had good reason to expect.'
Which MORONS voted for this 5h!t and continue to laud the 'LYING CHARLATANS'?
Hands up!
(still no lists of Brexit benefits after what, 3 months?)
The 'guy' was Chancellor Of The Exchequer and he got done for evading his tax.
He was forced to pay what he owed and percentage wise it was a damn sight less than the average Joe pays week in week out. He also threatened a journalist with court action for daring to reveal what the little snake eyed weasel was up to too.
He should be jailed for tax evasion.
What it is to be a Tory tax avoiding Chancellor..
'While the revelation that the former Conservative chair had to pay a tax penalty was shocking, the bigger concern is that the only tax he was required to pay on £27m was £3.7m. That implies an average tax rate of less than 14%, lower than the rate for someone working full-time on the minimum wage.'

I have no idea where you get the idea that Corbyn is 'my hero' GateBunter but i do know you are fond of fantasies.
Pretty sure Corbyn laid out a plant to INVEST in the UK though? Not asset strip it like your beloved crooks have done.
'Growth is the way out of the current predicament'
After 13 years of zero growth from the party GateBunter voted in time after time, he now tells anyone who will listen that growth is what is needed (no **** Sherock!).
The mind boggles.
