I suspect they aren’t to help the backlog clear, but the headlines say they are being deliberately difficult to punish Brits… Brexit is Brexit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sidcow Posted July 27, 2022 VT Supporter Share Posted July 27, 2022 Has anyone encountered many self confessed Brexiteers who have now admitted they have been sold a dud? I don't do non VT social media. I would have thought the penny was starting to drop with many now. I saw a TV documentary about Cornish fishermen just at the very start of lockdown. They were all pro Brexit and talking about over to you now Boris to make this work. I would love to hear their opinions now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"blocking entry" They're not blocking entry, they're doing the EXACT opposite. They're making sure you CAN enter. But we've made that process more difficult 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quote Music industry officials are calling on the government to do more to remove barriers preventing UK artists from touring in the EU since Brexit. Quote "A lot of the things we were worried about before Brexit around new bureaucracy, additional rules, additional costs have all come true, even though we were reassured by the government many, many times that that wasn't going to happen. Just one area, you could repeat this story over and over again for all sorts of businesses. I'd love to know what the music industry officials think the Government are supposed to do about these rules that we wanted. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markavfc40 Posted August 8, 2022 Share Posted August 8, 2022 Is there any data showing how many migrants are crossing the channel now compared to pre Brexit? I know over 18000 migrants have so far crossed the channel this year. Given one of the reasons, the main reason for many, that people voted Brexit is to stop the brown people in dingies invading us it would be interesting to know if there had been a reduction.

I’m pretty certain there hasn’t been, and it will be down to Brexit (lack of obligation for France and other mainland countries to do anything about it any more). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enda Posted August 17, 2022 Share Posted August 17, 2022 Liz Truss very unhappy that the UK cannot compete for EU university funding. Could Liz have done something that upset them? Quote “The EU is in clear breach of our agreement, repeatedly seeking to politicise vital scientific co-operation by refusing to finalise access to these important programmes. We cannot allow this to continue,” said foreign secretary Liz Truss, who is leading polls to become the UK’s next prime minister. “In our view [18 months] is an unreasonable delay and it is having a detrimental impact on the scientific community,” a UK diplomat added. The European Commission said it took “note of the UK’s request for consultation and will follow up on this in line with the applicable rules, as set out in the [TCA]”. “It is important to recall the political context for this. There are serious difficulties in the implementation of the withdrawal agreement and parts of the TCA,” an EU official said. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Genie Posted August 17, 2022 Share Posted August 17, 2022 I posted in the Tory thread but Liz Truss is also reported to have said that British people don’t work as hard as foreign nationals and need to “graft” more.
