But will they still be HALAL?

Would imagine so, can't imagine they stun potatoes before slaughtering them.

The date that Daniel Hannan chose for his now infamous Newsnight video and Reaction Life article, published two days before voters went to the polls in the 2016 referendum, has finally arrived. Yes, it’s 24 June 2025 and Britain has certainly left the EU, exactly as Hannan urged, but unfortunately life in Britain is unrecognisable from the one he predicted nine years ago with all the misplaced confidence of the anti-EU zealot.

Brexit Independence Day
Britain isn’t celebrating its Independence Day with fireworks. Older industries like steel, cement, paper, plastics and ceramics haven’t “revived as energy prices have fallen back to global levels”. Or at least if they have, it will come as a surprise to those working in them. London, Birmingham, Leeds, Liverpool and Glasgow haven’t “boomed” and neither has shale oil and gas “come on tap”. Our universities aren’t “flourishing”, and their revenues aren’t “rising”. Fuel bills for UK consumers haven’t “tumbled” either.

The EU hasn’t “turned inward” and no, “Denmark, the Netherlands and Ireland” didn’t “follow us out” as he forecast. Plans to harmonise income tax and social security across the bloc never materialised and therefore didn’t “prompt referendums in three other EU states”. And unfortunately for Hannan, Britain doesn’t “lead a 22-state bloc that forms a free trade area with the EU”.

They were all figments of his imagination.

And amazingly nobody seems to hold Hannan or Mr Brexit BS himself, Farage to account. No the dumbass voters think Farage is the man to set things right! Yeah of course he is, because lets face it he is famous for actually doing that isn't he?

He doesn't like other people telling him what to do? Well, I have a 2 word instruction for him, the second of which is OFF.

I see Bad Enoch, hasn't learnt the lesson of Brexit, now saying the Tories would leave the EHCR if elected (which they won't be). That will really **** things up, scupper the Good Friday Agreement for a start, but also increase problems trading with Europe and possibly other countries as well.

Ah well I guess erecting more barriers to trade and another hit to the UK economy is just what the Tories want!

It’s time the EU itself stood up to the ECHR. They as well as us, come a cropper with it with illegal immigrants and criminals. It needs rewriting and amending
It’s run by dodgy judges and it seems accountable to no one. We still never found out which one of them stopped that Rwanda plane at 1am in the morning under the Tories watch and the reason why.

Just this week, two criminals in the uk are not up for deportation, because of the right to a family life despite being *** pests.
Its wrong and either gets re written or binned,

It’s time the victims rights come before any criminals rights

Changing something that's wrong doesn't seem like a bad idea.

Out of interest how do you think it might affect trade as USA isn't in EHCR and it's not seeming to limit their capacity to trade with Europe.

Asking for a friend as I have no view either way
