    Brexit feel good story

    Warms the cockles of the heart, so it does

    Wetherspoon's profits plunge by 19% - BBC News
    I am what I drink, and I'm a bitter man

    Great story, despite difficult times and gloomy forecasts from the Elitish BOE and Government, this fine company has still managed to increase revenue.

    This fine British success story is a great example of what can be achieved by the British People. Unfortunately, it looks like Brexit may actually be off the cards, the elite have managed to rally the sheep and again Britain leading the world will have to be put off.

    It's a shame we don't have Trump leading us, now there is a man after Thatchers heart.

      It blamed a rise in labour costs, interest payments, utility bills, repairs and depreciation for the fall.
      Shouldn’t this have been expected? Wasn’t one of the benefits of Brexit that immigrants taking good British jobs would go home, and businesses would then need to pay more and not suppress wages?

        Everyone will get hit by Brexit, Contractors also now receiving their 10% Brexit pay cuts. Though one could argue that the banks are getting a Brexit dividend as they can slash contractor rates.

                Revenue is not profit.

                And it's not a fine company.
