  3. sending a #christmas card to continental Europe now costs £ 3.40. Sounds like one of those reverse #brexitBenefits. Also, the price increase in October wasn't widely reported because first and second class stamps stayed the same. And who sends letters abroad anyways ...

  7. #Brexit problem: UK tap water safety at risk after labs shut down

    #BrexitBenefits

    #EU countries will share laboratory capacity from 2026, meaning that if the #UK was still in the EU, water companies would be able to use products that passed tests on the continent.

    But UK rules mean products cannot be tested abroad; they have to be tested in the country in a certified lab, of which there are now none.

  10. CW: #Brexit #RedTape

    Yay. Thanks #Brexit for making this excessively complicated. towerhamlets.gov.uk/lgnl/counc

    This is simply too convoluted, but maybe it always was – for example commonwealth citizens have always been eligible, but most didn’t know it. Maybe, if you would be liable to pay council tax (including if you would be liable but are exempt, such as a student) you should be able to vote and stand in local elections?

  11. ‘Doesn’t feel fair’: young Britons struggle with losing right to work in EU since #Brexit

    Since the #UK left the #EU, people with only a British passport typically need a work permit to work in the rest of Europe, making hiring them more difficult for an EU employer. “That was my plan, and now it’s been significantly scuppered,” Kinsey said

  13. #Eurometer in Germany - another UK export. Is this one of the long promised and rarely seen #BrexitBenefits? 😀

  14. OMG! I've just come across the first benefit from Brexit!

    I'm at a wine tasting, and I've just had a wine which was a blend of Australian and French grapes. It had to be blended in the UK, because it is prohibited by EU rules.

    It's very good wine, though I don't think that outweighs all the pain we've been through!

  16. More Brexit sunlit uplands.

    On the plus side, it looks like Starmer is playing both sides of the field with Brexit. On the one hand making ostensibly crass statements that he'll make Brexit work and there's no plan to rejoin the EU, and on the other hand making lots of manoeuvres to re-align UK and EU as if UK were preparing to rejoin.
