O/T:- Tangible Brexit Dividends

[Mapperleypie]

Anyone found any yet? Anyone here better off?

I’m suggesting this should be moved to the ‘baiting and handbags’ thread!

Nice trolling Mapperly.

This^^^

The one ''tangible benefit'' is the endless threads on Brexit seemed to have stopped.

Not trolling. A really straightforward and simple question. We were promised things would improve for us all if we voted to leave the EU. I think the term 'sunlit uplands' was used.

Just wondering if anyone can give me some real world examples of things improving for them as a result of Brexit? Anyone?

The vaccine development and roll out.

Covid has happened which couldn't be foreseen and nothing of benefit would happen in the short term anyway
But I agree with Gumpy the Brexit argument has been done to death it's happened don't let's start all that again.

The vaccine development and roll out.

You may want to look at the recent vaccination stats in the EU to see how that rollout is going (now behind the likes of Denmark and Belgium; Spain are about to overtake us), and see where the “Astra” in AstraZeneca comes from.

Spot on, that man. Some need to stop getting their news from the Express ! France will pass UK in about 2 weeks even with the large anti-vax sentiments here. Funny how the brexit headbangers don't want to talk about it. I wonder if the EU had collapsed in acrimony after UK left whether there would have been any threads about it ?
Oh well, as they say it's done now. I doubt you'll be getting back in easily. And our financial industry is grateful for the new business.

I do fail to see why some people seem hell bent on dragging a negative out of every positive thing this country achieves.

Because like every other positive the right-wing press tell you it turns out to be a lie ! Some can see through it. Others are narrow minded. Choose your team.
