Lots of people saying Labour are right to stay silent on Brexit, that people need to feel the pain or something. That’s easier said than done for those who have spent years proudly building their independent businesses, creating jobs, creating tax revenue, collecting vat, 1/
putting homes up as collateral to raise the money to invest in the future for themselves, their staff, their families and their communities, working all the hours god sends for years, doing without to get their companies through bad patches. 2/
If you haven’t got a job on the line, a business on the line, a life’s work on the line, it’s very easy to sit there shouting at those who just don’t understand why the opposition parties are letting them simply go down without even an acknowledgement that is happening. 3/
Even an indication of an understanding of what is occurring - not just to the shellfish industry - from opposition voices would be something. But then again EU citizens were also pretty much thrown under a bus with very few voices raised in their protection either. /end
Looking at some replies I am not really sure why the assumption is the only way to talk about Brexit is in terms of rejoin. You can talk about what is going wrong and demand to know what measures can be done to limit the damage but apparently even that is too much.
It’s about time all British voters were forced to wake up and think about things seriously and intelligently instead of like daily Mail fucking headlines!
