And the big corporations. You know my stand point on all this and i really do think these massive corps have more of an influence on how countries are run than we like to think!
If we were to rejoin the EU tomorrow, what benefits would you miss most about Brexit?

But is your attitude not part of the failing of this current society.Ant wrote: ↑Thu Feb 23, 2023 8:47 amI do about three of them as I like variety. I can't bolster your "life is shit oh woe is me" attitude just because I'm happy and you're not.
I see it more and more, "fuck anyone else i'm ok mate" - if you continue like that things will only get worse for many, which will then start affecting you, it already is, you can't buy a fucking carrot in the 6th richest country in the world! Think about it for abit!

I’m not quite sure where you’re getting a narrative of I’m sad/you’re not? I’m not sad, but what IS sad considering someone’s emotional state when they are expressing concerns.
If anyone actually clicked on the tweet link above, it clearly articulates why this concern has happened. It has nothing to do with my mood, or yours.

A word of advice, don't get fed news from social media. You'll find yourself a little less angry and a lot more happy. Plenty in the supermarkets here

It's the some that's caused supermarket panic buying. No shortage of tomatoes in a local farm shop yesterday btw. So Brexit in the supermarkets but not Brexit in our local farm shop.Docca wrote: ↑Wed Feb 22, 2023 11:29 pmYeah, this has been widely debunked by people posting plentiful fruit and veg from Spain, Portugal- France etc.
Survey of people who voted for Brexit and don’t read however …
There is a local market tomorrow. I’ll try there.

but you are responding to my reply because you’re influenced by social media?
I’m not angry and it’s disappointing that you seem only capable of allocating opinion in safety boxes and filed under an emotion. Far too difficult to deal with the actual issue etc

I wonder if the farm shop imports their produce? No? Then that’s a pretty silly comment. Hopefully your farm shop can supply 67m people.
I don’t think you’ve understood the issue at hand. ‘I’m alright, Jack’
Re: If we were to rejoin the EU tomorrow, what benefits would you miss most about Brexit?
Yes I'm responding. Me influenced? No, I'm not the bitter remoaner who's blaming something which didn't happen on Brexit for the reason I claim that I can't buy anything I wouldn't have done anyway.....
I'm just about to pop into another supermarket, I'll let you know what they have

Re: If we were to rejoin the EU tomorrow, what benefits would you miss most about Brexit?
I really think the biggest change if we rejoined the EU would be on this thread, and others like it. People blaming stuff on leaving, other people disputing stuff. All that would happen is that the arguments would reverse, people would blame stuff on re-joining, other people would dispute stuff
FFS get over it. We left, re-joining isn't an option, and shit happens, both inside and outside the EU. Blaming people for the shit doesn't make it smell any nicer.

No problems here either. In fact, the village is about to see the completion of its second solar-powered indoor farm which will produce year-round fruit and veg.

Re: If we were to rejoin the EU tomorrow, what benefits would you miss most about Brexit?
There is a whiff of bullshit about this weather thing. Some weeks ago I heard a chap from Thanet Earth saying they were ramping up imports rather than use the heating - although they do have CHP, so maybe it's more £ to sell the power? Labour problems too. It's not that long ago £320,000 worth of toms went to compost because they hadn't got the labour.
Maybe what we're seeing is the normal level of imports and nothing home grown on the shelves?

Turkey does grow quite a few (12.61M tonnes of them)
I remember passing through an area and it was polythene as far as the eye could see. (Poss. near Beldibi? Can't exactly remember...but it was a bit ).

Been to Asda, no shortage anywhere. I even bought tomatos although I don't even need them. I bought them for the sake of the remoaners.

I might do just that and post photos of me naked, covered in tomatos and lettuces, cucumbers by my nob and grapes hanging out of my bum.
