Phillip Hammond declared the rnd of audterity TWICE before too :rofl: Tories are the bighest liars in Europe.
I would say most people don't really care that much about it and it won't be the decider of the next election. Someone on DS said that, a respected long-time poster and agree with him. Personality of the party leaders will be the decider more than policies. Some policies such as the economy, taxes, NHS etc may be important to some voters.

 

Then perhaps you'd be interested to know that the landed gentry party want to privatise the nhs?

Which is another reason why the last three years has been such a waste of time. Before Cameron suggested a referendum, EU membership was way down the list of priorities for most people. Yes, Farage and co. kept banging on about it, but most people didn't care either way. The referendum left a lot of Remain voters feeling pissed off with the near certainty that a lot of Leave voters would be equally pissed off when a Leave majority didn't deliver what they thought it would.

Would you want to be the shortest serving PM ever though? Could happen if he loses an autumn election.

Well, he has always wanted a place in the history books :lol:

I very much doubt there'd be civil unrest with a no deal. I think there may be when a lot of Brexiteers see that we're not leaving and get angry and frustrated. Glad we don't live near a High St with a lot of shops.

 

There would be civil unrest. Lots of small businesses have not planned for the eventualties. Lots of the big food and beverage companies, especially ones that have confectionery as a major category don't have the warehouse space for extra stock as they are at full capacity ready for seasonal items. An extra 2 minutes of delays in Callis could lead to 17 miles of traffic. People stranded, waiting hours to get through border control. Unable to have access to basic medication such as paracetamol and that's without even thinking other kinds of life saving medicine. You can mitigate all the risk you want, but it does not stop it from happening.

 

If people are dying because they cannot get a flu jab or access to insulin (which plausibly could happen) then it will lead to unrest. People fighting in the shops over products. I mean nloody hell I'm sure it was only last year when KFC couldn't deliver chicken for a week and the whole country went nuts :lol:

I still think Boris has something up his sleeve. Some DS posters, right at the end of his exchange with Corbyn tonight, heard him say "let's see what happens in the next few days" under his breath. The Attorney-General was seen entering No.10 late tonight after darkness. Maybe Boris has another ace card to still play.

Yeah, so little chance of civil unrest when the shops are empty of food, people are trying to stockpile loo roll and medicine and everyone in the country knows EXACTLY who is to blame.

 

What stops people committing crimes? What about when they have nothing left to lose?

How do you know shops would be empty? The supermarkets have had weeks to plan for this and huge warehouses to stockpile cans etc. Okay maybe a few exotic fruits and vag that hardle anyone buys may be in short supply but plenty of Heinz beans and Spam available.

We have already stockpiled loo roll, bleach, beans, soup, canned meat and fish, canned veg and fruit, coffee, teabags, evaporated milk, bottled water. Anyone sensible would also have done so, especially if they have a wholesalers card like we do for Costco and Makro.

GROSS. NO ONE WANTS TO EAT SPAM AND HEINZ. PUT THAT ON THE SIDE OF A BUS. YOU CAN LIVE YOUR BLITZ SPIRIT FANTASIES ON AN ABANDONED ISLAND.

Anyone sensible would see how utterly ABSURD no deal is. (It also has no mandate and neither does a hard brexshit bye.)

Baked beans are very good for you. Fibre and protein and you can buy low sugar and salt.

Chris, without wanting to sound like I am fixing a broken record, I work for a very large food and beverage industry player, so as such I have more knowledge than others. Lots of companies have huge warehouses but do you know what pretty much every big company is crying out for and has been crying out for for a long time? More warehouse space. There is a lack of available space available in the UK. AjAnd if you don't own it, do you know what is expensive to rent off an logistics firm? yep, warehouse space.

 

We are coming up to Christmas time, you start your Christmas strategy 18 months before Christmas. There are tons of seasonal items already in storage, Christmas is the biggest time of the year for the food and beverage manufactuing industry, a load of this extra space is already taken for seasonal stock and not everyday household items! Who supplies Tesco and Sainsburys with Heinz baked beans? Kraft. Do you know what warehouse space Kraft has available? This is the fantasy land that No Dealers have, I bet you not a clue of them have any idea how a supply chain works. To then produce extra tonnage you've got to work with the factories to produce the goods. But the lines can only work so fast as well- there are so many different variables at play here.

Warehouses are already being used to stockpile goods for Christmas. Besides, if government policy leads to retailers feeling the need for stockpiling, doesn't that suggest that government policy might possibly be wrong?

Oh LORD.

 

Also thr UK is a TINY ISLAND. Where is this stockpiling going to happen? How will enough food be grown when there isn't enough space?

On another note what a great speech by Tanmanjeet Dhesi in the commons today commenting about Johnsons rascist remarks about people who wear turbans - got a round of applause and he still wouldn't apologise!

I thought you said you watched PMQ? He was one of MANY who destroyed your Eton millionaire idol.
