Brexit Posts

[Dangee]

There seems to be a massive decline in negative Brexit posts recently. How have the 1st two months been for everyone?
I’ve had delays getting some parts & longer lead times on some sanitary ware & have taken to preordering in advance to cover this.
Has anyone had medicine shortages or shortages in supermarkets?

Large increases in prices - yes. To be expected. Tip of the iceberg and all that waffle.

I don’t do the shopping but I haven’t noticed any increases. Is it much?

What prices?

Inflation has not risen and the prices are the same in the places I buy stuff from.

Oh. So there is no difference then? I’m confused, I thought we would actually immediately see problems. Other than exchange rates changing & vaccine quantities, what other issues should we be experiencing?
I know that prior to Brexit, rumours of massive labour shortages was mentioned. Has anyone experienced this yet?
I personally haven’t noticed any issues at the moment.
