  • Brexit again - nothing to see here...

    I have no intelligence to work this out for myself but Brexit does seem to be a stupid idea for your average person in the UK?

    Of course, the BBC bring anti UK could be lying?

    How about the edible insects, or is it only fish, meat and dairy?

        Anti Tory, anti Brexit, I probably shouldn't post after drinking sauvignon blanc? I probably shouldn't post, end of?

        I will say any criticism of Brexit and its imagined or not consequences is deemed unpatriotic by some and used as a measure of people's Britishness.

        You pedantic old bugger.

          So you admit you were pissed, cocked-up and didn't write what you though you did - and it makes me a pedant when I questioned it?

            Yes, about being half cut and stupid.

            No, about you being pedantic.

            Yes, now though.

                  Usual stuff from the BBC. Grand headlines that hinge on the words could and may. Gives a few furious people a chance to let off some steam in the comments section I suppose.

                  What they very rarely do is actually report on the facts.

                  Now we all know food inflation has risen everywhere in the last year or so,

                  Food inflation in the UK peaked at a very high 19.1%

                  Cost of food in the United Kingdom increased 2.20 percent in May of 2026 over the same month in the previous year. This page provides the latest reported value for - United Kingdom Food Inflation - plus previous releases, historical high and low, short-term forecast and long-term prediction, economic calendar, survey consensus and news.


                  In the sacred beloved EU as a whole it peaked at a slightly higher 19.2%

                  Cost of food in European Union increased 1.60 percent in May of 2026 over the same month in the previous year. This page provides - European Union Food Inflation - actual values, historical data, forecast, chart, statistics, economic calendar and news.


                  You can see it all at the links. Do extra charges help? Course not. Are they in any way significant to food prices versus things like the weather or supermarket competition etc? Absolutely not.

                  You are being played, by people who didn't get their way in a referendum and have never accepted it.

                  I'll gladly repost food inflation stats in six months time.

                      In your opinion , there is enough evidence to suggest that they are anti Brexit ,Tory , moving away from christianity and english based religion ,seems to support its asian reporters that have anti western values which the UK is part of, its inability the not call Hamas Terrorist after October attacks was strange and seen by many as anti british /western .

                        Its not about immediate benefit ,we need to see what may occur once the impact of a war in Europe , Covid Cost is smoothed out .

                        The whole world has seen a massive inflationary impacts not form Brexit but the event such as Ukraine and a pandemic ,as a result we now see the push for more wages rises and more inflation , its all about the broader issue ..

                          Try again using intelligible sentences. As for 'english based religion' [sic]:

                            But for how long will Brexiteers blame the war and pandemic for poor economic performance? Indefinitely, I’d imagine.

                              So, in one sense you’re calling out the BBC for not being impartial but then give an example of when they are being impartial and say it is wrong
