Would explain how Boris Johnson ended up with a degree from Oxford.To be fair, maybe in the british system F is excellent and A terrible.

Looking at the replies it's because of rescaling, the UK should be alligned from 21st September this year so perhaps the stock is older. The apparent discrepency is because of headroom being left in the new scale for further efficiency improvements.Tweet

Yeah, our new white goods all had need E ratings but said "used to be A+/A++ on old rating". Confusing as feck at the moment.Looking at the replies it's because of rescaling, the UK should be alligned from 21st September this year so perhaps the stock is older.

Still some mind boggling numbers who believe (a) Vote Leave didn’t lie, (b) that Brexit was good for the country (c) we’re still on good terms with EU members and (d) wouldn’t rejoin.Go figure
One year on from Brexit, poll finds voters believe it has harmed UK’s interests
https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/brexit-poll-boris-johnson-lies-b1980372.html
So basically, from this 46%, at least half of them believe that it was the right decision to leave even UK being worse off. I wonder (or not) which would be their main reason why it is the right decisionStill some mind boggling numbers who believe (a) Vote Leave didn’t lie, (b) that Brexit was good for the country (c) we’re still on good terms with EU members and (d) wouldn’t rejoin.
Some of the numbers:
51% would vote to rejoin -vs- 49% who wouldn't
51% want a referendum to rejoin -vs- 32% who don't
27% believe Brexit was beneficial to UK's general interests -vs- 38% who didn't
14% that UK's relationship with EU has improved since Brexit -vs- 59% who believe it's worsened
51% believe access to goods and services has become more difficult due to Brexit -vs- 18% who think it's easier
21% believe there's now less red tape -vs- 45% who believe there's more
24% believe Brexit has benefitted the economy (FFS!!!) -vs- 44% who think it's weakened it
24% (presumably the same as above) think that the UK has become more united as a result of Brexit -vs- 41% who believe it's been more divisive
19% (NEARLY 1 in 5 ASKED) believe that their personal finances have improved since Brexit -vs- only 23% who say it's worsened
16% believe that their ability to work / travel abroad has become easier -vs- 28% who believe it's now harder
MORE THAN 1 in 4 (26%) believe Boris told the truth more than he lied during the campaign -vs- 57% who believe the opposite
23% believe our global influence has increased since Brexit -vs- 39% who believe it's reduced
And when asked if leaving was the right decision, it was A TIE at 46% yes, 46% no.
These are some frankly terrifying figures!!!
People see what they want to see, don't like admitting they're wrong and will happily pin the blame on the EU, Covid or whatever anyway. If you're happy that you can get a blue passport, the crown stamp is back on the pint glass and we stuck it to the EU on pounds and ounces, then maybe you're happy. Not to judge, but presumably loads of this cohort won't be reading in depth reports on the problems blighting exporters etc...Still some mind boggling numbers who believe (a) Vote Leave didn’t lie, (b) that Brexit was good for the country (c) we’re still on good terms with EU members and (d) wouldn’t rejoin.

I love when they blame it on EU red tape and not on the people who knew the red tape would be there if we left but said nothing.Tweet

But that involves admitting you were hoodwinked, never gonna happen.I love when they blame it on EU red tape and not on the people who knew the red tape would be there if we left but said nothing.
The red tape exists for a reason, and has done for ages. It shouldn't be a surprise. You don't walk head first into a lamppost and blame the lamppost for breaking your nose.
Ah, of course.But that involves admitting you were hoodwinked, never gonna happen.
Of course you do that. Every sane person would sue the town for placing the lamppost thereI love when they blame it on EU red tape and not on the people who knew the red tape would be there if we left but said nothing.

Just one Brexit NFT will make it all worth itIm just waiting for the “Brexit cost us a lot more than we bargained for, so we are having to sell off the NHS to keep the lights on in the country”
NFT?Just one Brexit NFT will make it all worth it
https://www.dailymail.co.uk/debate/article-10380303/I-feared-Brexit-tear-people-apart.htmlIf Scotland voted to leave tomorrow, it would find itself outside both the EU and the United Kingdom, with no viable currency, colossal debts and a hard border from the Solway Firth to the North Sea. By contrast, if we make a success of our future outside the EU, Britishness will seem a much more attractive proposition.
What's more, all successful nations need something to define themselves against. As the years pass, the EU leviathan — with frequent riots and violent protests in Paris and Amsterdam, authoritarian regimes in Budapest and Warsaw, rows about borders and migrants and scandals about corruption and waste — may well become an effective Aunt Sally.
Bizarrely a lot of support in the comments for anti-Brexit posts.Not sure how he can lecture the EU about corruption and waste given Track and Trace and the procurement scandals.

Yes, this is surprising for me too. Maybe the questionmarks for the Eurozone are bigger than expected? Greece, Italy and Spain are still moving nowhere. Turkish economy could be also a negative influence on Eurozone?So the GBP is on the highest point of the last 5 years vs EUR. How this translates on the Brexit narrative?
We are at 1.20 euros to a pound I thinkYes, this is surprising for me too. Maybe the questionmarks for the Eurozone are bigger than expected? Greece, Italy and Spain are still moving nowhere. Turkish economy could be also a negative influence on Eurozone?
It has to be said, Biris' scheme to get young talents from overseas is economically sound and it works far better than comparable schemes in the EU, which are far too slow.
Everything in the EU is slow, when you have too many people with different opinions in the meeting room, this alwayYes, this is surprising for me too.

But, again, these are the decisions of the countries who can implement these measures at their own will. Nothing to do with the actual EU.Everything in the EU is slow, when you have too many people with different opinions in the meeting room, this alway
