I've lived this every day for 3 years, I can't get away from it. I was working for a soaring business in 2016, 750 people dependent on the business, record sales, quadrupled revenue and turnover, all killed by Brexit. Every day we lose £160k holding stock and storage for what might happen, that's a cost of £38 million this year alone. 150 jobs lost with the rest to follow over the next 4 years, European customers demanding that the product is made in the EU (written into their contracts). The misery caused is unnecessary and totally avoidable.

Joking about the pound soaring .001 of a €uro is in no way anything to be joyous about.

Just out of interest we held a referendum at work last week, just short of 300 people voted. The result a resounding 72% to remain.
The real tragedy of all this is that many of those who voted in favour of Leave do not understand the real motive for the project which is to decimate protective regulation in favour of the interests of the rich and powerful. Those people on the lower end of the social and income scale will be hit hardest and have the most to lose. Unfortunately they have been sold a pup. If Brecks Shit does go ahead (which I'm by no means certain of) expect to hear the phrase "turkeys voting for Christmas" crop up a lot.
