        My response was to the suggestion that “we already have a trade deal, why do things need to change”.
        I know - I was just wondering why Europe should be at the front of the queue after the way they've treated us for the last few years; mocking and deriding us, then expect to be first to be dealt with on trade deals. Shove yer VWs up yer bollix and get the Lexus imports going.

        Well, Jamie Oliver managed to improve chicken nuggets (or something like that). Sadly, his restaurant at Watergate Bay, Newquay has now closed too. More of a community project than anything else, hopefully a richer celeb chef will take it over (expecting/hoping Rick Stein or Nathan Outlaw to dive in).

          The EU are about to take the UK to the cleaners.

          Manufacturers cut jobs at the fastest rate since 2012

          The UK is in a weak position.
          I'm alright Jack

                Because the tories have managed to turn every full time job into four part time jobs, complete with in work benefits. What are the rules again ? is it working one hour a month makes you 'employed' for statistical purposes ?
                When freedom comes along, don't PISH in the water supply.....
