UK has all that food they won't be exporting to Ireland or Europe. If not, we have lots of soybeans we can sell them cheap. They have already stockpiled medicine.

Kindly stop your uninformed silliness.

The UK doesn't even cover half of its food consumption from domestic production and covers two thirds of its pharmaceutical needs by imports.

If you can't post anything but rubbish in by now any thread you enter in this forum, why don't you try posting on a joke site?

The minority being the Brexiters. The UBER rich, who want to flee the EU clampdown on tax dodging and tax havens. Which coincidentally requires EU members to enforce from November 1st. The day after Brexit day.

Nearest I can tell, the majority voted to leave the EU...but true enough...there were a large number of crippled little poodles in the UK that have already demonstrated they like being subservient that voted to stay.

And yet she still managed to put together a deal for Parliament to vote on. You can’t keep blaming Johnson and May for no deal when Parliament was provided a deal to vote on seven times. And it absolutely was not just Conservatives who voted it down every single time. Why make no mention of Corbyn’s shenanigans to derail Brexit? Just yesterday he was out there saying he’ll vote against a deal he hasn’t even seen yet.

Corbyn WANTS Brexit,just not the Tory one. The deal is fake. More timewasting BS.

Pharmacies are having difficulty supplying medicines NOW and we haven't left.

The choice is being subservient to Trump or remaining an equal member of Europe which helps create most of it's laws, and has a better deal than Germany? Tricky one.

What a pity that people of the UK dont have the capacity to see themselves as strong and independent and capable of standing on their own two feet.

That is because so many people, like the government, are hoarding. You will be fine. I will mail you some acetaminophen if you run out. Fresh fruit and vegetable is the only thing you might have a long term problem with.

We're a sixth the size of the USA, with a massive market twentyone miles away which we help control and organise. Outside we're a small fish in a massive pond with next to zero influence. Better together than in thrall to Trumpco.

The blue box of "medicines" above is full of plastic gloves. They'll be used to put the bodies in the thousands of body bags in the stockpile.

If anybody was unsure about your level of ignorance of the situation being discussed you just made it perfectly clear, comrade. Corbyn has been resisting committing to a remain platform for years, despite his party membership supporting it by 80% He want's a Labour Exit while fighting a Tory one.
 
"You can check out any time you like, but you can never leave". That was once called imperialism. Apparently, the German dream of a conquered Europe is within reach.

Visbek said:
No, they won't.

1) They are not going to screw Ireland for the sake of Boris' career.

2) They have no motivation whatsoever to give in. The easier this is for the UK, the more feasible it becomes for other member states to exit.

That is a lie. Corbyn campaigned for Remain leading up to the referendum. He only pretended to support the idea after the results were known while doing everything he could to undermine progress and voting against every deal put before Parliament. Then made his true intentions known three months ago when he called for a new referendum - vindicating May’s assertion numerous times in PMQs that such has been his plan all along.

People can't hoard prescription-only medications. Diabetics are already adjusting their diets to titre their insulin doses in the face of shortages. Should the worst happen and we crash out, we are looking at a minimum of ten years of negotiations to get remotely near where we are today.

Corbyn was nominally Remain, but notable by his absence in any meaningful way during the campaign. He took Labour into the election on a leave platform. He wants to negotiate his "Lexit" with Europe and only if that is successful will a referendum be called with a choice of HIS leave against remain. (maybe) He's still caviling now about the details.

You almost make it sound like if the UK exits the EU on WTO terms that it will become like Mexico. It's underlying narrative is that the UK is a third world country without the EU. It that what Remainers are selling?

The article indicates people are hoarding medicine. The government is hoarding medicine. And while I do not particularly feel like looking for them, I have seen previous reports that the medicine issue has long since been arranged for with special customs fast tracks for both Ireland and the rest of the UK through dedicated health channels. Here is the most recent UK government guidance on the issue, updated about 3 weeks ago Businesses supplying medicines and medical devices: preparing for Brexit - GOV.UK

Oh. That's why the day after the referendum, the second most googled question in the UK was "What is the European Union?", right?

Ignorant simpletons believed in the lies of the Brexit crowd and joined in, not even knowing what the hell they were voting for.

What the UK is doing, is a case of self-injurious behavior.

They'd be better off if they dropped this insanity once and for all.

But I know that it won't happen. The UK will exit, with no deal, in catastrophic form, and they will profoundly regret it.

But hey, the extreme right is all for nationalism and nativism, so, yay, Brexit, Brexit, Brexit!!! It doesn't make of the whole circus, any less of a grave and huge mistake.
