Here is an idea to start minimising some Brexit toxicity.....

I agree with this, maybe Starmer is playing a good game?

Also I wonder if Johnson deliberately drags out the unresolved issues of Brexit like NI so he will get relected on the back of finishing the job? If Brexit was really all done and dusted there would be no point to him anymore

The benefits continue to pour in

Brexit decision left UK firms paying 10% more than EU rivals for emissions

British businesses are paying substantially more to produce carbon dioxide than their EU rivals because of the government’s refusal to link the UK carbon market to the bigger European market after Brexit. The difference is putting UK industry at a significant competitive disadvantage to European rivals, at a time of soaring energy prices, but does not result in any additional benefit to the environment.

Britain’s carbon price is higher because the UK carbon market, set up last year with the first permit auctions taking place last May, is much smaller and lacks the liquidity of the larger EU emissions trading scheme (EU ETS) that has been operating since 2005 and covers all of the EU’s heavy industries.

Government’s post-Brexit farming plan ‘will increase UK’s reliance on food imports’

The “blind optimism” shown by government ministers in their plans for the future of England’s farms could result in many small and tenant farmers being forced out of business, a parliamentary report has warned.

In the wake of Brexit, farmers in England are set to see direct payments – worth £1.8bn in 2019/20 under the EU’s Common Agricultural Policy – slashed by more than half by 2024/25 and removed entirely in 2027 as the government shifts to a new regime intended to boost productivity and improve stewardship of the countryside.

I really feel for any poor b*****d trying to continue running a business through this complete and utter clusterf*** :(

EU rattled?

What is Lord Haw Haw Heaver on?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=alV0ASFM36Y

Liz Truss who has taken over from Lord Frost the Brexit Minister has issued a similar threat to the Northern Ireland Protocol. She has said via a Telegraph article that she is willing to trigger Article 16 of the Northern Ireland Protocol if the EU doesn't bend. She is just repeating the threats her boss Johnson and her colleague Frost made last year. The EU has said that the protocol is working and this is shared by business leaders in Northern Ireland.

Yes, that's the situation in a nutshell, NI is in the best of both worlds and could be a roaring success economically, thus showing up how bad Brexit is for the DUP and the rest of the UK. !

There is nothing that Truss can bring to the table to change anything and she is merely there to turn the heat up or down on the rhetoric as a distraction depending on how Johnson's " levelling up " or corruption inquiries are going. ... I noticed at the first PMQ's this year Johnson threw the allegation at Rayner that the Labour Party would have kept the UK in the EU if it wasn't for the Tories, which shows his thinking by using a desperate appeal to Brexiteers to muddy the water to avoid answering questions.

So, we have probably the most corrupt and inept government in history desperately trying to keep all the plates spinning as all the promises of Brexit fall apart. ... not looking a good year ahead for Johnson.

Do you even know what you are writing?

What does your latest drivel actually mean? Do you have any idea?

A long time ago your contributions were fairly anodyne, rather like chewing gum for the eyes, but now it has become a sort of nonsensical punctuation mark between genuine comments......

Brexit denial syndrome is when someone puts their fingers in their ears and denies all the harm that Brexit is causing to our country.
