    Email to the Moggladyte re EU rules.
    "Subject: Brexit Benefits NOT

    To: [email protected]

    I reply to your request re petty EU rules. Those imposed by the 'oven-ready turkey' deal are far more onerous.
    • The loss of freedom of movement
    • The end to mobile roaming charge limits
    • No replacement for pet passports
    • No more mutual recognition of driving licences
    • The loss of EHIC cards
    • The end to appropriate flight compensation
    • The huge cost of import/export regulations
    • Time consuming and costly immigration procedure
    With no regards whatsoever

    We think the quality of our politicians are a bit ropey, but this is who the voters of Georgia voted in as their representative in Georgia, US. I give you conspiracy theorist and overall mental case, Republican and arch Trumpist, Marjorie Taylor Greene...



    Souper!....<laugh>

    Rostov's a major city, for god's sake. They played World Cup games there just four years ago, even if you don't know anything about politics!

    UK exports of goods to the EU have fallen by £20bn compared with the last period of stable trade with Europe, according to official figures marking the first full year since Brexit.

    Last year's figures were close to zero, so any growth this year will be an enormous percentage increase on last year. At least, that what the government statistics will show.
