Hello. Is there anybody’s there? 😐 Bruised & battered by Brexit, we thought we’d be back by now but it goes on & on & on. 😩 With Hallowe’en the latest final deadline, do you want an engaging, interesting, informed panel in a #Bradford pub to tell you what No Deal means?
36%Yes, that’d be useful.
21%No, I know enough.
21%Yes just b/c I miss BDPiP
21%NO! OH. MY. GOD. NOOOO!

I’m old enough to remember when politicians were smeared for spying *against* us.

So, erm, this poll. Did we decide it was first last the post or d'Hondt proportional representation? 🤬Should’ve had a binary choice because everyone would be clear about what the options were, nobody couldargue with the result & they work out really well every time 🤷‍♀️

I created this @bd_pip poll and I don’t know how to vote. I miss #BDPiP - I really do - but... NO MORE BREXIT.

No one puts the #BeerFags+Chips case for Brexit more eloquently than Tim Martin. His case for #NoDeal on #BBCQT is (dangerously) compelling, populist pubchat nonsense - the sort of pub politics that should stay in the pub: based on deep ignorance of how a complex economy works:
BBC Question Time
@bbcquestiontime29 Nov 2018
‘We’re better off on day one without a deal and it will continue to get better’ Businessman Tim Martin says a no deal Brexit would leave the UK £39bn better off than Theresa May’s current proposal – because of the lack of ‘divorce payment’ #bbcqt

Nick Griffin also went to Cambridge. So did Chris Grayling. Boris Johnson meanwhile went to Oxford. Yet it's always Abbott who's mocked as unworthy. Funny, that. xitter.cf/JuliaHB1/status/988428…

Replying to @michaelgove
But the customs union is NOT protectionist. It’s one of the most open trading areas in the world. Unless you mean having no tariffs on anything from anywhere i.e. not taking control, but losing control, over your trade policy.

Rough sleeping has risen by 169% since 2010. Forced NHS cancellations, rising child poverty, libraries closures, potholed roads and uncollected bins: After years of unending cuts, British public services are crumbling. The NS Leader: newstatesman.com/politics/uk…

Leader: Britain’s public realm is in unmistakable decay after years of unending cuts

Rough sleeping and child poverty are rising, while the NHS and schools struggle.
