Femi🙄 just knows 1/2 of all fish caught by UK boats is sold to EU countries and that a no-deal means that every single one of those fish will face a tariff that will make it unprofitable when we try to sell it.
So unless you want to eat them all...

#SoLongAndThanksForAllTheFish
If you want proof of just how much worse things can get for UK fishers...
These are the EU's standard tariffs on seafood goods from non-EU countries. That's a 9-23% tariff on half all fish caught by Brits if No-Deal happens this year!

For some reason, UK producers prefer business models based on getting their freshly caught fish to European countries rather than having to transport it to countries on the other side of the planet.

These two clips from True Blood and Empire are the best anti-homophobia put-downs I've ever seen on TV! 😍🏳️‍🌈
For the record, I'm not gay, I just watched the #Empire episode yesterday and can't stop singing it because I've never seen a more brutal and yet musically beautiful destruction of a bigotry in my life.
(And I'm confident enough in my sexuality to put this on the internet.😉)
To those suggesting that I shouldn't say "I'm not gay". 🙄
I'm young and single, and plan to change the latter before the former, and yet I just sang "I'm gay" in front of a quarter of a million people online.
Can you maybe guess why it might be in my interest to clarify that?

On Sunday Boris Johnson will announce the road map plan for the next phase of lockdown and how we might ease the restrictions.

Any journalist/ newspaper editor that uses the headline "Boris announces the end of lockdown" will be personally responsible for the deaths that follow.
Here we go...
It's important to remember that, just like with Brexit, these papers profit from the chaos, so it's in their interest to poorly inform the public.

It's bad enough we had 4yrs of chaos because Tories got 52% to vote for something they couldn't agree on. Proof: PRO-BREXIT DUP voted down Boris' deal.

But negotiations are now stalled because Tories won't even agree to the kind of trade deal described in THEIR OWN Brexit deal.
See below:
Even worse: Not only is the media not highlighting that the government's trying to go back on the version of Brexit they signed & called "oven ready"...
They're not even discussing the ONGOING negotiations, knowing what No-Deal means for our ability to recover from from Covid-19.
