BREXIT! BREXIT! BREXIT!

The article also has testimony of people who've changed their mind the other way.

There were some funny bits and some real content. Trucks crossing by ferry, guy waiting for flowers for his business.

So now Labour are tentatively backing a second referendum while the Tories are ruling that out and tentatively backing an extension to the Article 50 process. May has put off the so-called 'meaningful vote' AGAIN!, which only the blindly ignorant cannot see is a manipulative way of running the clock down.

WTF is actually going on, nobody knows.

Banks given extra funds to calm nerves if UK crashes out of EU

Banks will gain access to additional Bank of England funds from next month to prevent a financial shock should the UK quit the European Union without a deal.

While it remained unclear whether the UK would leave on 29 March or if parliament would vote to delay Brexit, the central bank said it would allow financial institutions to access cash on a weekly basis rather than the usual monthly system.

The Bank of England governor, Mark Carney, played down the significance of the move, saying it was part of “normal contingency planning”...

Fuck 'em. Put that cash into house building, or primary schools, or social services.

Interestingly the Eurozone seems to be heading into recession territory. Not so much the UK.

It may be necessary to swamp the British airways with endless repeats of Dad's Army, to keep up morale...

Another way of looking at it:

Economy could be 9% weaker under no-deal Brexit, government says

Latest no-deal notice forecasts Northern Ireland to be hit hard and food prices likely to rise

The government has issued a bleak warning over a no-deal Brexit, estimating the UK economy could be 9% weaker in the long run, businesses in Northern Ireland might go bust and food prices will increase.

In an official document only published after repeated demands by the former Conservative MP Anna Soubry, the government also revealed it was behind on contingency planning for a third of “critical projects” in relation to business and trade.

Dont squawk so fast especially not with Brexit.

Plenty of negatives around?
