You use the word „we“. I presume you mean „I“. You should care about the mood in Ireland, Germany and the EU in general. At the end of October it’s put up or shut up time for BoJo.

Who said „better“? I said when you live abroad you meet different people and see how other people live and see things. It is a fact. The same with the areas here which are most anti foreigner. Largely in the East which has the lowest percentage of foreigners. I employ temporary staff from many...

Not quite true though. We were told that the German car manufacturers would put pressure on Merkel to make a deal. David Davis said he would be in Berlin on the day after Brexit. The mood here is that the UK is shooting itself in the foot. Maybe people should be interested as it is not what we...

Didn’t last long did it?

Exactly what I was writing when the next anti German dumb comment came. See my last post.

Yeah, because mad Mart is not mad. He disagrees with you a lot, but that is not madness. I live abroad. SB lives abroad. Astute will live abroad. Maybe we see things differently to someone who stays in the UK and has the stereotypical racist views on other Europeans. I heard an interview with...

We don’t have zero hours contracts here. 15 hours a week is the lowest full time employment. There is a limit on how many times temporary contracts can be renewed.

Yeah. It’s getting better.

We did have a re-run of 1975. 1975 was decisive. 2016 was a win, but nothing like enough to get the whole country behind it. Brexit is a major change and a huge risk. A 4 Point win on an advisory referendum is not enough to be able to go into negotiations with a strong hand. Which is evident...

My German missus told me she wants to go Cornwall, and you are going to use that in an article about German dominance? I can’t see any other sign of dominance from Germans in my post. Brexit is a cock up, but the exchange rate has worked in Eurozone‘s favour. What has that got to do with Germany?

Germany? Full employment. A job starts at 15 hours a week. Used to be 8. you cannot have permanent zero hours jobs. So it is really full employment.

The people who voted Brexit are responsible for difficult times ahead. A high proportion of them pensioners who can afford to sit back and relax whilst the working population takes a hit.

We’ve been through this. Devaluation has positives. They don’t last long if they are accompanied by inflation because we need to import things like food and parts for manufactured goods. The initial price advantage is lost because manufactured goods made with imported parts become more expensive...

You do know that it is not just holiday money? It is everything that is imported.

I was talking rationally. ;-)

Retaining the status quo is the easiest and safest option. It is not an extreme position.

I thought our currency was supposed to be too strong. Whatever. I saved some money because of the Brexit vote in 2016, it looks like should send a few grand over if this continues. Missus wants us to go to Cornwall. Thanks BoJo.

Why do you think that it got weaker after 29 March and after BoJo said he was for no deal? Do you think the Finance World thinks that Brexit is a good idea?

And he hasn’t started yet.

Best time for them to do it. Distraction of new PM and potential no deal and therefore stress with EU friends.
