Blind panic in the EU.

No income from the cottage equals no workers, no point if no one is staying

Perhaps I should have used the word wage instead of income. Unless she is working in the cottage several hours every day, or on a very good wage, she may need extra income, from another job maybe, or some other means. Or, she may not need the money and does it for something to keep her occupied, in which case, it shouldn't matter.

It shouldn't matter, thats good of you to say

Plus - does the garden only grow when tenants are there?

She's a cleaner, the owner had a gardener and a decorator as well, but cb's despair was just for the cleaner, a bit unfair really.

Financially, if she doesn't need the money, it shouldn't matter. If she needs the money, that's different, but not what I said.Does the owner have many bookings in winter ?

I was using her as an example of the way this outbreak can affect the tourist industry, don't make assumptions about who I care about

Likewise.

I haven't just picking up your flippant remarks about someone losing their job

Not flippant, more like pragmatic.

LOL We need their £100billion worth of goods and foodstuff to exist. If it turns to 120 due to changes who will pay it - us.

Oh no .....and the tariffs .......that we will no longer have to pay to the EU from imports from the rest of the world ....costs coming down ...keep up.

 

[gasbanni]

good grief, gasbag is obsessing about the EU again.

Why can't he just be happy that he WON?

It's all been over for more than three years.

Everything Farage and Rees Mogg told us was true* so there's nothing to talk about.

The NHS is dripping with extra nurses and has £350million a week extra

We held all the cards and that's why the EU immediately rushed into negotiations and surrendered to give us the easiest deal the world has ever seen.

All our unemployed and pensioners are now working full-time as fruit-pickers and builders of car-factories, apart from the ones now working on minimum wage in care homes.






*I use the word "true" in it's Johnsonian usage meaning "nonsense"

Did you say WON ? JOHNNY BOY ? I am happy the whole post is joyous !! And the EU is panicking ......read about their attempted budget ????? and whose refusing to pay more ??? Have you ????

I think you want to sing this to me ......

Are you aware of tge trade deficit ?

Care to comment on it ? And who will suffer because of it ?

The British Financial Services sector makes more than the whole of British manufacturing. Fishing is too small to see.

Who will lose if the UK decides to throw away access to its nearest market?

You know the answer.

And the EU won't commit financial suicide, they absolutely rely on London, there is no equivalent within the EU, as much as I'm sure they wish

The cost of a euro in GBP £. It hasn't reached 1 to 1 - yet and may never do. Who knows but when you hear about the euro crisis on the telly etc ...............................

The Euro will never equal the British pound,

 

[Ryler]

Who will lose if the UK decides to throw away access to its nearest market?

The eu will lose.

 

[gasbanni]

The eu will lose.

You are absolutely correct my dear chap, before long the euro will collapse. Thanks to the genius of Gordon Brown he stopped the idiot Blair adopting the euro the fact that we have sterling made brexit possible. Brown should be knighted for that one thing alone as too should Nigel for being the catalyst that set the ball rolling !!!!!!!
