Who cares anymore let them get on with it
This is exactly right. I am past the point of caring about quality of service. Let them trial anything they want. As long as I can turn up on time and finish on time, I will do whatever the f**k I am asked in between those hours.

That's very poor, from the both of you.
It is just a job now. Vote yes, receive a little more money and let people who are paid to worry about such things do so. There is more to life than this s**t show.

Perhaps the indfrence and could not give a s**t has led to this if everyone in this nation had the quality's you espouse we should be picking cotton or harvesting tea plants.

Neither cotton or tea are suitable crops for the UK climate.
The societies of consumption and squandering of material resources are incompatible with the idea of economic growth and a clean planet.

I would have thought that you had cut and pasted this nonsense from some kind of bizarre American right-wing blog, but no, I think at least they would have been grammatically accurate.

The reasons we are in this mess, are the government that have been in power for over a decade, gradually squeezing the life out of the country, to make rich people richer at the detriment of everyone else, and the the clown-show voting public who both continued to support these self-serving leeches, and voted to leave the biggest free trading bloc in the world. But sure blame me for not having that ‘bulldog spirit’ or whatever.

World's biggest?

Maybe not.
But yes, that default catch-all, Brexit.
Whatever your ills, just blame Brexit.

It is just like blaming Covid for the economy. Or people with brown skin.

If I add ‘one of the’ to my previous post, would that make my point more relevant or? The fact is, we have tossed away free trade and movement with ‘one of the’ biggest trade blocs in the world, and now we have a dumpster fire economy and more immigration than ever.

A result then.

At least Germany doesn’t have to import their fruit from the USA or India though.

What benefits of Brexit are we currently enjoying?

Fruit depends on weather and climate most of our fruit has always been imported but the crop has to grow in that particular country and if it doesn't which was the case abit back you get shortages it has absolutely nothing to do with Brexit.

Now you're talking daft.
It's a well-known Remainer fact that oranges and bananas were grown in County Durham pre-Brexit but now we can't get any Lithuanians to pick them we have to import from SA and India instead.

Seemingly no end to the "Brexit caused..." hyperbole. :roll:

Yes fruit was imported. From the EU! Now my weekly shop comes via South Africa, India and the USA instead of from Spain. And the quality is utter s**t. It has everything to do with Brexit.

Still awaiting just one benefit of Brexit. Nobody has managed it yet.

We could have stayed in the EU and curbed immigration had we chosen to. The fact that we are now out of it and immigration is almost at record levels should tell you that.

Coincidentally I was reading an article today that explained how the EU pays off militias in Africa to lock up potential migrants, so they don’t reach EU countries. Ironically, by being out of the EU we have removed ourselves from this nasty practise and opened ourselves to more migrants from these countries too.
