<Brexit>

Boris Johnson has abandoned his “do or die” pledge to leave the E.U. by 31 October and will plead with MPs next week to give him a pre-Christmas general election. Downing Street sources claimed that if MPs rejected Johnson’s request, he would pull the withdrawal agreement bill and continue “campaigning” for a general election every day.

Farmers are being forced to leave millions of apples, and many other fruits and vegetables, rotting in orchards and fields because of a shortage of workers.

One hundred tonnes of fruit has gone unpicked in Britain already this season, meaning more than 16 million apples so far have been left to rot at the peak of harvest season due to a Brexit-led employment slump.

'Farmers are being forced...'

Serious question:

One of the Brexit windfalls was literally that seasonal jobs would once again be open to residents. What went wrong? Could they not hire domestic labour temps? Would it be too expensive? I'm sure through clever marketing plenty of proud Britons would be available?

Is there still time?

I've seen interviews with farmers who have said they just cant keep people motivated for long enough. The work is gruelling and boring. Marketing will get them INTO the job, but it wont keep them.

Circumstance kept a lot of foreign workers busy. Seems a catch 22 anyway. If they have to pay them more to pick the fruit the price of said fruit will increase. There is only so much people will pay for fruit (regardless of if its worth more or not).

People have an expectation of price bred through cheap wages paid by some farmers to migrant workers. The lure of cheap labour is high im sure.

E.U. delays Brexit extension decision as France piles pressure on MPs.

The E.U. will delay its decision on the length of the Brexit extension until next Monday or Tuesday after France piled pressure on MPs ahead of a vote on Boris Johnson’s demand for a pre-Christmas general election. During a meeting of E.U. diplomats, the French ambassador stood alone in arguing that it was not the right time to agree a three-month delay, in a move that will be welcomed in Downing Street.

The Scottish National Party and Lib Dems have joined forces to attempt to force a general election in early December, but on a different timetable from that wanted by Boris Johnson.

Macron caves into Merkel yet again as EU "offer" extension to 31st January.

[Jimjam]

I guess this means we get to implement that EU tax transparency law?

Or will it just get ignored as we'll be out of their jurisdiction the very next day?

Primarily idiots voted for BREXIT and took in all the lies being offered to them by team Leave EU. What is more, they were happy to dive into their racism and to see it legitimised.

The idiots didn't know that tech experts downloaded all their FB profiles, fashion habits etc., and profiled them using forensic psychology. They then sent individualised memes, often racist and always lies, to trigger the prejudice and racism; leading people down the path to extremism to get the votes they wanted. Some politicians actually got murdered, that is how effective they were with those tools and which they use to get people to do stuff like the Christchurch shooting.

The actual methods used came from 'SCL group' whom were a British military contractor that specialised in radicalising people and turning them to violence to achieve strategic aims. Once they even triggered a genocide in Africa. Just read that again, the methods used were designed to make extremists and terrorists and then were applied to radicalise identified votes in their racism to get their votes.

That's all been reported on and the electoral commission found that they broke the law. If the referendum had been binding it would be rendered null and void but they set it up as an advisory referendum and just played the public mind.

Idiots and a lot of racists; the UK today. Good job guys, good job. Me? Well, the climate change thing is real and very pressing so you know the idiots are going to lose their way of life anyway. Pretty sure the racists and idiots will just be like 'but we got our BREXIT cornflakes' as the Country goes to hell in a hand basket.

Mark my words, these people will be pushing for overt culls of mass groups of people soon, like what we are hearing from all the Trump supporters and white supremacists in the US. Didn't you all know that the same folk that got Trump in via illegal means were the sames ones that cheated and got the BREXIT vote?
