#brexshit — Public Fediverse posts

Live and recent posts from across the Fediverse tagged #brexshit, aggregated by home.social.

  1. @infobeautiful That's a #brexshit promise that was actually delivered on! - making non-EU immigration easier [so that it was no longer harder than EU immigration].

  2. @SiRrogueKnight We have expenses rules so, in theory, if there were sufficient enforcement, it should be difficult to buy elections.

    But that seemed to go out of the window with the #brexshit referendum, and now only some parties seem to take any notice of the rules.

  3. @Fishd @Richard_Littler Yes, that's the point.

    Gammons vote for parties like Reform because they want to fuck up other people's lives. Reform-run councils have demonstrated that they will succeed in delivering exactly what they're voting for.

    So, @Richard_Littler, Reform is a completely effective solution to "how can I fuck up other people's lives more than I've already done with #brexshit?"

  4. @shemjm @ChrisMayLA6 This doesn't affect those Brits who have obtained Irish passports as an anti-#brexshit measure. They can continue to enter the UK with their Irish passports, and thus still don't have to pay twice for an inferior product.

  5. @vikki @anon_opin I note what you say but I don't think I agree. I reckon that if ANYBODY votes for Farage after the catastrophe of #brexshit then my analysis is accurate.

  6. @Wen The entirely known-in-advance inevitable consequence of #brexshit.

    Nobody has ever managed to explain to me why the DUP wanted this.

  7. @HamonWry Or they could have learned from the #brexshitters who some years earlier were saying "this isn't the #brexshit I voted for." It was, of course.

  12. @Chip_Unicorn Large numbers of British people acquired Irish passports as a result of #brexshit.

  13. "In past decade"? - this is as close as the BBC can get to saying "yet another #brexshit benefit". (Though to be fair they do actually mention Covid this time.) bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c20q07

  14. @alberto A bit of a change from when their Grauniad stablemate supported #brexshit.

  15. @selfe.bsky.social Another #brexshit benefit - more people's lives fucked up, if only on a small way.

    I note that, as usual, that *none* of the vox pops in the BBC article say "it's not my fault, I voted remain" so, as usual, they only have themselves to blame.

  16. @kentishfran It doesn't need to be remotely credible, that's not the point.

    Just as his claims for the economic benefits of #brexshit weren't intended to be remotely credible.

    Nobody is expected to believe this bollocks.

    What he's really saying, as he did last time, is "vote for me and we'll get to fuck up some other people's lives". And there's no reason to suppose that the gammons who get off on fucking up other people's lives won't do so again in order to fuck up more lives.

  17. @ablueview "I voted for bad things to happen to *other* people"

    Should have learned from #brexshit, shouldn't he. At least some of the more honest of Putin's 17.4m #brexshitters have now said:

    "OK, so I didn't realise I was going to fuck up my own life as well, but it's a price well worth paying for getting to fuck up other people's lives."

    Those who do not learn from history ...

  22. @jtonline @KimSJ Thing is, the average voter doesn't have the information - they just know what the meeja tell them (eg the BBC's support for #brexshit) and they haven't read the hundreds or thousands of pages of evidence that are available to the politicians. (OK, so not all the politicians have read every word either, but a fair number of them have read a fair amount of it.)

  23. @kentishfran And none of the vox pops said "I voted remain". From which one can reasonably assume that they voted for #brexshit. So they only have themselves to blame.

  24. @oldclumsy_nowmad @benroyce Just like why Corbyn was in favour Putin's #brexshit.

    You can't have a Trot socialist workers' paradise if the workers are free to leave, because the workers will leave, so he needed the ending of (outgoing) freedom of movement as a precondition.

  25. RE: mas.to/@therightarticle/116373

    Ah, #Brexshit
    The gift that keeps on giving.

    Waking up that morning in June 2016 & seeing the results on the TV is firmly etched on my brain. I said out loud, to anyone in earshot, "what the fuck have the idiots done?".

  26. @ChrisMayLA6 Also what Putin's 17.4m #brexshitters seem to be missing is that this is down to them - without #brexshit we'd have had a say in the regulations.

  31. @selfe.bsky.social And even if it were true ... it'd count as a "#brexshit benefit", because it wouldn't have been necessary if we'd remained ('cos we'd have just said "no" again).

  32. #BBCQuestionTime

    Where the fuck is Clacton’s MP #NigelFarage???

    Before #brexshit, you could guarantee that every other week #Farage would be top of the billing on #BBCQuestionTime 😡

    Now he’s finally been elected as their MP, after 7 failed attempts, and he’s nowhere to be seen…in his own constituency FFS 🤬

  33. @selfe.bsky.social Another #brexshit benefit. More lives fucked up, exactly as Putin's 17.4m #brexshitters wanted and voted for.

  34. @Lazarou My mother voted Remain in Putin's #brexshit referendum.

    "I remember the war," she said. That was enough for her to vote for a peace project, none of the other arguments needed to be considered.

  35. @kat We are still running the #brexshit cupboard. Which, as it turned out, wasn't needed for #brexshit shortages, but came in very handy with lockdown when it was three weeks before we could get a supermarket food delivery - we had months of non-perishables in stock.

  36. Good.

    The UK government has today announced that, to cut red tape and costs for importing and exporting with the EU, the UK will align with EU Sanitary and Phytosanitary (SPS) legislation.

  37. @OneInterestingFact @mysturji @kibcol1049 @bee Today has been owned by RWNJs certainly since they supported the #brexshit campaign and probably before then.

  38. @bassdiesel.bsky.social Yes, people are this stupid, they believe all sorts of lies. Otherwise we wouldn't have either #brexshit or Trump.

  39. @georgetakei All of which was smokescreen, or code, of course, just like the supposed "benefits" of #brexshit.

    In both cases - MAGAs and #brexshitters - what the gammons were knowingly and deliberately voting for was to fuck up the lives of people they hated: it just wasn't, then, fashionable to say so out loud. In both cases they succeeded.

  40. @bestforbritain.org I still don't get people saying #brexshit is a failure.

    It's totally successful at delivering what Putin wanted when he paid for it - the UK fucked up.

    It's totally successful at delivering what Putin's 17.4m #brexshitters wanted when they voted for it - the lives of people they hated fucked up.

    Where on earth is the "failure" supposed to be?

  41. #Brexshit the gift that keeps giving 🤦

  42. @tompearce49 Putin's 14.7 #brexshitters voted for #brexshit because they wanted to fuck up other people's lives. (The honest ones are now saying that yes, maybe they didn't realise that their own lives would get fucked up too, but that's a price worth paying.)

    They succeeded. This is their next success. They'll be having themselves another little **** at the news that they've succeeded in fucking up other people's lives a little bit more.

  43. @bestforbritain.org Eh? But the whole point of #brexshit was to fuck up people's lives, so how come Putin's #brexshitters are now counting success as failure?

  44. @kentishfran Theory:

    There are a fair proportion of Putin's 17.4m #brexshitters who no longer support #brexshit because it didn't fuck up as many people's lives as badly as they were hoping it would, and they see Farridge and his party promising to fill the gap.

  45. WTAF

    Is there a limit to British #dumbfuckery?

    Their beloved #Brexit turned into #Brexshit now using the #Russia phobia to scare the public from immigrants.
