This is a link post Another Brexit Success!
Trade with the EU down 40.7%, losing us £5.6 Billion in a month!

Will the benefits of this great idea never end!

So we're just going to pretend that everything was normal, we didn't re-enter a national lockdown, and the EU didn't enter national lockdowns or unilaterally shut the border because of the Covid strain found in Kent?

Not even going to read the actual article where it's spelled out that it's a temporary blip? Nope. All 100% Brexit.

Might have know you'd turn up with an old story in which someone from the EU calls us names.

This is a normal post plenty of British people will call the Brexits names

As usual read beyond the headline and it turns out to be a non story

“Experts said the scale of the decline in January trade was unlikely to be permanent because there was evidence companies stockpiled goods before the Brexit deadline, meaning they would not need to send as many shipments as usual in January. The decline was lower than a 68% plunge anticipated by road hauliers, while the ONS said there were signs trade had started to pick up at the end of the month.”

since there's a few people on here that's pro-brexit.

Do you have any lists of the advantages it brings?

the closest one I've been given was about immigration control from EU. but the governments ability to control the immigration from external to EU has been non existent. (I really do not think it's much of an advantage)

This is a normal post Blue passports?
We can lower our food standards so we can import cheap meat from the USA.

We don't have to let so many Polish or Romanians in now so when we need to make up for a declining population we can import brown people to do our menial works, but we can deport then when we've had enough.

What else?

This is a normal post we had a couple of years of that
The one that sticks in the mind is that apparently being out of the EU means we can tear up all the red tape surrounding newts, bulldoze a load of newt ponds and build houses on them. But beyond that, nothing

This is a normal post But I thought that's what bribing local officials was for.
Or bulldozing the lot while no one is looking.

This is a normal post A few pro-brexit cunts here you say?
I thought Mr. Penis killed himself and Prufrock isn't allowed to vote.

Who am I missing?

This is a normal post It's funny
My recollection is that you - most enjoyably you - did a lot of pearl-clutching over imagined disasters that never came to pass, we mocked you continually, and then hard Brexit happened and all your weird status-seeking loyalty to some useless old fucking Belgians lay in ruins. It was fucking delicious.

That the hard Brexit parallel universe actually happened. And - brace yourself - you're in it! Tell us how it feels.

the uk has tied AZ exporting vaccines down with a contract, this would have been the case inside the EU.

one of the clever things the uk government has done, so they can now point to the EU and shout bad people doing vaccine nationalism.

I'm only seeing negatives

This is a normal post I wouldn’t get too stressed, life in britain was always going to get gradually shittier
Each year more William hills and off licences on the high street, chained up at night like a war zone. Everything that was elegant or public broken up and replaced with something awful. The few nice places left either overcrowded or priced beyond most peoples means. All brexit was ever going to do was speed up the decline.
