wow. that was one rough sunday in politics
hard brexit it is
congrats @thomas for getting out in time.
the tories are determined to ruin the economy
More said days for Britain IMHO. and the poorest are going to pay for this unfortunately all based on a bunch of lies
A big recession is part of the tory agenda. They can finally kill off the NHS, state pensions, various other public services while lowering the taxes for the rich
Hard Brexit will also auto-solve the immigration problem, since UK will face an emigration problem.
@benedek it is very simple…just git clone brussels
and then start making you own changes 😉
it effectively unblocks the internal stuff so they can focus on really fucking up all the external stuff
nice way to put it @glenjamin
I'm going to drown my sorrows in some purescript today
anyone got any good exit plans? i'm considering trying to swing a move stateside in the next few years (pending result of the US election)
@spike I am going back the Netherlands… mainly because that is where my wife and I are from. And the children are young enough (8 and 6) and already bi-lingual.
I think I would have liked Germany as well, but my wife wasn’t too keen on it (I would have been the only one speaking the language)
Denmark/Sweden sound very good as well… except for the long winters. @martintrojer do you have any comments on going to the Scandinavian countries?
I'm from Malmo which winters I'd describe at "Scottish". Not great, but the summers are better (IMHO). But ofc just one of many variables in play
(And my family is Swedish bi-lingual so no big roadblocks for the big homecoming)
still waiting for this graph to see how high it can get: http://www.xe.com/currencycharts/?from=AUD&to=GBP&view=1Y 🙂
Most of what I know about Malmo comes from “The Bridge” - it’s all about racial tensions and murders, right? 🙂
dang… this is depressing http://www.xe.com/currencycharts/?from=GBP&to=EUR&view=1Y
So how much do you think the government have to pay Nissan for not closing the factory in Sunderland?
£1bn?
nothing… it is in Sunderland and there are no tory voters in Sunderland… so they won’t care.
I'd say the PR loss of them closing it worth closing a couple of NHS hospitals (to avoid)
but you are right, the eaton boys in government couldn't care less about sunderland.
@martintrojer the Eaton boys are gone (for the moment). But that doesn’t solve the problem I think.
