No Deal - Truth

Just a snippet to throw in here and maybe as we learn more truths about how "No Deal" won't actually be catastrophic we can add them to this thread.


I received an email from P&O Cruises, Britain's primary cruise line. It states and I quote:

In the event of a no deal Brexit, the UK Government have confirmed cruise holidays will continue on the same basis as today

Re: No Deal - Truth

Well both companies my husband and I work for predict it will not just be fine but might be better than this waiting.

I am told food prices from some places could drop by 40% if we have no tarriffs with them.
This is couple of years old but doesn't sound like all doom and gloom to me

What's the opposite of "Project Fear"?
"Project Woo hoo"?
"Project Huzzah"?
Just asking.

How about project hope or positive ? If we don't look forward with some sort of positive or hopeful feelings we will be condemned to not do well at all.

I posted on another thread somewhere that we are better prepared for a no deal Brexit than the government is leading us to believe.

Hi

But then you post false news, already proven to do so.

Many big companies are very well prepared, especially those in service industries, our biggest export.

They have moved to the EU, taking their Taxes with them.

Meanwhile, ordinary small exporters suffer.

They cannot log in to the Governments new system for electronic clearance and a request sent 3 weeks ago for clarification for Tariffs on used car parts has not been replied to.

Which of these companies have moved to the EU because of Brexit ?

I’ve heard it called both Project Fantasy and Project Deceit but the one I quite like is Project Lemming as it seems so apt
