1. A thread: #Brexit & #covid19. The UK is the only country in the world, ignoring Coronavirus to deliver the worst parts of a bad plan missold 4 years ago
While others prepare for #Coronaworld do we think "ignore any Pandemics, deliver only downsides" was 'on the ballot paper'?

2. A Bloke wants a refund on a product he broke. He spends so long arguing that:
his car's on bricks -speakers
home robbed
fired
wife's gone with kids.
His doctor calls
It's cancer.
Denying changes, he says if his cancer were a cannon he'd fire it at them.
That's us.

3. Could we have known?
I'll update an Aug19 NoDeal thread below.
TLDR?
EVERTHING got worse.
Take the Patel "Law": We've added Elites vs unskilled masses but affected almost no EU migration.
This Hurts non EU migrants keeping our NHS alive. (see Hassan)
Go the Brexit elites!

4. In Aug 19 they said they'd reduce discrimination (then increased it).
They talked of sovereign borders
(then split the country down the Irish Sea).
They would strengthen Border controls
(unlike ANY OTHER COUNTRY ours opened for #Covid19.
Even Trump put in airport controls).

5. Do we take back control of our laws? Not one example.
But we gave up control of our senses.
In Feb EU warned - PPE and carehomes

As #coronavirus broke out, so did we from the airport advice EU was giving us.

6. Two of many. Not even about laws in any true sense Neighbours sharing tools
Petulance or pestilence?
A sort of Stubborn British we know better THAN THEM.
#coronavirusuk showed the arrogance of that.
But did we have to learn through death?
Even Churchill had allies FFS!

6. We're now well beyond the red lines that Theresa May counjered up in 2017.
Beyond the US and Canada, the EU and Turkey. It's said, I have no proof, even Falklands AND ARGENTINA!
This is seriously warped. And costsly
Why shun better and cheaper?
So I looked at bad neighbours

7. North & South Korea?
Here are SIX "share the tools areas", where tories want UK/EU to be at or worse than N/S Korea
Air Safety ❌
Virology ❌
Humanitarian ❌
Sports Events ❌
Transport ❌
Tourism ❌
In real life this sort of obsession? Nut job zone

8. And those Brexit advantages?
Not even sovereignty or independence, we all know it reduces both
Trade is all downside.
Even the US.
We DON'T want fooked trade as we enter a Global Recession.
Yet the #Coronakiller champions of Europe blunder forward hoping you won't notice.

Think they plan? What have they implemented in the months that Lockdown bought us?
They couldn't? Oh and South Korea, New Zealand, even Italy?
We're the bloke who tells his wife he's using the savings for a deposit then gambles it with no plan for the kids.
All our kids.

10. I'd have said N Korea example is ludicrous. But then 👀 at the detail of treaties.
And then
2. Only other country to have no global trade deals (we're since we're giving up ours.
3. Keeps military funded while the people suffer.
4. Control press to broadcast an irreality?

The 2019 THREAD.
When I wrote it in '19 the downsides of No Deal were a disaster. But now we're going to undermine our own trade?
We've gone backwards Johnson's out of his depth
And yet the world is moving forward post-Corona.
British Petulance or...?
